HashKey Group, a major firm in digital asset management, announced its Top Ten market insights for 2025, a year they believe will mark a watershed in the evolution of Web3. The predictions are based on insights from almost 50,000 community members who took part in a nine-day voting process, revealing key milestones in cryptocurrency adoption, regulatory developments, and innovation in technology.
HashKey said, Bitcoin, the so-called “digital gold,” will reach $300,000. For Ethereum, dubbed “digital oil” it predicts this coin’s value will exceed $8,000.
