HTX Ventures has shared its 2024 annual report, highlighting key areas where notable progress has been made.
These include advancements in the Bitcoin ecosystem, infrastructure development, the rise of memecoins, the growing interest in AI-driven cryptocurrencies, and the expansion of the TON ecosystem. The firm revealed its intent to focus on these sectors as it works toward further growth in 2025.
The report also explores potential shifts in regulatory landscapes with the anticipated inauguration of Donald Trump in January 2025. HTX Ventures predicts that the repeal of Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 121 could allow traditional financial institutions to hold crypto assets on their balance sheets.
This regulatory change could significantly boost institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies by opening up new financing opportunities and increasing access to spot crypto trading through established financial platforms.
HTX Ventures anticipates that this move would help mature the institutional crypto market, positioning Bitcoin for stronger support and further integration as a core asset tied to the dollar. The firm also draws comparisons between Bitcoin’s potential growth and the expansion of other dollar-centric sectors, such as artificial intelligence.
While optimistic about the future, HTX Ventures cautions that the market has yet to reach the peak of its bull phase. The firm credits its positive outlook to expected fiscal policies under Trump’s administration, which could create an environment conducive to a new wave of growth in the crypto sector.
