Ok haven't done this a while since I left my investor role, but here it goes. 2025 Predictions 1. Hyperliquid is on track to become the Onchain Binance. We'll see it happening slowly but surely. 2. AI dominates: AI memecoin supercycle (real). Wayfinder and PROMPT as catalysts for AI gaming integration. AI waifu phenomenon gains traction. Next up: AI trading agents. 3. ICO platforms make a comeback. Binance launches its own version of Legion or Echo. 4. Fair launches continue to win, while VC-backed coins generally underperform with some exceptions. Side note: pumpdotfun launch its token? 5. DEX volumes, DeFi TVL as a whole hits ATH. 6. We'll see some RWAs gaining more traction with the support of Trump's pro-crypto administration. 7. Solana, Base, and Hyperliquid will be the three ecosystems prioritized by builders. Side note: Base might launch its token, given the pro-crypto administration? MegaETH to hit Top 4? 8. In terms of the market, expect some months of corrections and consolidation during the summer (rather than a constant rise), but it's likely to reach another all-time high in late Q3 to Q4. 9. Return of builders to U.S. jurisdiction. This shift is driven by pro-crypto administration policies, regulatory clarity, institutional support, and infrastructure development. 10. Several major U.S. companies at the S&P 500 level launch their own chains. Expect to see at least one crypto company go public in the U.S. $HYPE, $PROMPT, $AI16Z, $VIRTUAL, $ONDO, $MEGA, [REDACTED]
3. ICOs are back. @cobie
