Franklin Templeton Digital Asset Outlook: Cryptocurrency Industry to See Practical Growth by 2025

Franklin Templeton Digital Asset report amplifies the spreading role of cryptocurrency technology as a cornerstone of global financial and operational systems, calling upon stakeholders to watch not only regulatory developments, institutional initiatives, and the integration of AI and blockchain.

The most expected events for 2025 include regulatory clarity, technology, and institutional adoption. With an expectation that U.S. regulators, especially the SEC, are about to spearhead the effort of increasing the diversity of financial products related to cryptocurrencies, such as ETFs and tokenized securities, perhaps a more favourable regime will give the United States reason to be the home base again for crypto innovation.

Traditional finance entities continue to be on board with cryptocurrency infrastructure. The highly expected stablecoin regulatory framework in the U.S. could open the floodgates for more mainstream financial institutions to create their own stablecoins. In such a case, the growth of DeFi ecosystems is expected to explode, with stablecoins and tokenized assets at the forefront of global adoption.

AI and Blockchain Integration to See Further Growth in 2025

Franklin Templeton Digital Asset also said that Bitcoin is expected to further cement its status as a financial asset, with some sovereign nations likely to increase their strategic reserves. Industries are also set to adopt DePIN to solve real-world logistics and IoT problems.

By 2025, the adoption of AI and blockchain will make a huge leap forward. Again, blockchain will keep providing critical transparency and verification for AI applications, while AI agents will extend blockchain to automate on-chain transactions and portfolio management by amalgamating digital content and social media with on-chain activities.
