Stablecoin legislation will pass both houses of Congress and be signed by President Trump in 2025, but market structure legislation will not. Legislation that formalizes and creates a registration and oversight regime for stablecoin issuers in the United States will pass with bipartisan support and be signed into law before the end of 2025 masonslots test. Growing USD-backed stablecoin supply is supportive of dollar dominance and Treasury markets, and when combined with the expected easing of restrictions for banks, trusts, and depositories, will lead to significant growth in stablecoin adoption. Market structure – creating registration, disclosure, and oversight requirements for token issuers and exchanges, or adapting existing rules at the SEC and CFTC to include them – is more complicated and will not be completed, passed, and signed into law in 2025. -Alex Thorn

Bitcoin DeFi, recognized as the total amount of BTC locked in DeFi smart contracts and deposited in staking protocols, will almost double in 2025. As of December 2024, over $11bn of wrapped versions of BTC are locked in DeFi smart contracts. Notably, over 70% of this locked BTC is used as collateral on lending protocols. Through Bitcoins largest staking protocol, Babylon, there is approximately $4.2bn in additional deposits. The Bitcoin DeFi market, currently valued at $15.4 billion, is expected to expand significantly in 2025 across multiple vectors including existing DeFi protocols on Ethereum L1/L2s, new DeFi protocols on Bitcoin L2s, and staking layers like Babylon. A doubling of the current market size would likely be driven by several key growth factors: a 150% year-over-year increase in cbBTC supply, a 30% rise in WBTC supply, Babylon reaching $8bn in TVL, and new Bitcoin L2s achieving $4 billion in DeFi TVL. -Gabe Parker
Cryptocurrency market update april 2025
April 2025 crypto market outlook: Analysis of Fed policy, Trump tariffs, ETH Pectra upgrade, and inflation data. Will Bitcoin’s historical April strength prevail despite limited catalysts? Market projections through June.
US March CPI data is an important reference indicator for the Fed to adjust monetary policy. If CPI growth is higher than expected (especially core CPI), it may strengthen market expectations for the Fed to maintain high rates or delay rate cuts, leading to a stronger dollar, tighter liquidity, thereby suppressing prices of risk assets like Bitcoin.
The impact of the April 2 tariff policy on the crypto world depends on the triangular game of inflation-liquidity-market sentiment. Short-term markets may show intense fluctuations, but medium to long-term trends need to observe whether the US economy falls into stagflation and the policy coordination of global central banks. Investors need to adjust strategies flexibly and grasp structural opportunities amid uncertainty.
Trump administration’s tariff policies may exacerbate US inflation by increasing imported goods prices and reshaping global supply chains. According to calculations, if the general tariff rate reaches 15% or above, US core PCE inflation could rise to 3%, far exceeding the Fed’s 2.5% target. This will limit the Fed’s room for rate cuts, and may even force the Fed to maintain high rates longer, thereby suppressing the liquidity environment in the crypto world. But the contradiction is: if tariffs lead to increased recession risks, the Fed may be forced to cut rates earlier, and liquidity easing expectations may temporarily support the crypto market.
In the short term (April-June), if the Pectra upgrade lands smoothly, ETH prices may rise with fluctuations due to technical benefits and increased staking demand, targeting around $3,000; but caution is needed regarding profit-taking resulting from the market “buying the rumor, selling the news.”

Total crypto VC capital invested will surpass $150bn with more than a 50% YoY increase. The surge in VC activity will be driven by an increase in allocator appetite for venture activity given the combination of declining interest rates and increased crypto regulatory clarity. Crypto VC fundraising has historically lagged broader crypto market trends, and there will be some amount of “catchup” over the next four quarters. Alex Thorn & Gabe Parker
