How Wall Street’s Relationship with#BitcoinWill Change in 2025: 5 Predictions
From the#MicroStrategysplit to major banks buying up crypto companies, bitcoin is about to enter the “Wall Street” era.
When Michael Saylor announced that MicroStrategy would convert $250 million of its Treasury reserves into bitcoin in August 2020, Wall Street analysts dismissed the move as a reckless gamble. At the time, Saylor trumpeted bitcoin as “better than cash,” which raised skepticism in traditional banking circles.
Yet the same banks that have been scornful of corporate adoption of bitcoin are now rushing into bitcoin-backed lending in a race to capitalize on its superior institutional-grade collateral and burgeoning product-market fit.
Traditional collateral, such as real estate, requires manual appraisals, subjective assessments, and complex legal frameworks that vary by jurisdiction. In contrast,#Bitcoinoffers instant verification of collateral through public blockchain data, 24/7 real-time settlement and clearing capabilities, uniform quality regardless of geography or counterparty, and the ability to programmatically enforce lending terms.
