This increase will be driven by the growing adoption among large companies and countries. The report predicts that five Nasdaq 100 companies and five countries will add Bitcoin to their balance sheets, driven by the need for diversification strategies and trade payments.

"The competition among countries, especially non-aligned nations, those with large sovereign wealth funds, or even countries hostile to the US, will drive the adoption of mining strategies or the acquisition of Bitcoin in other ways," Galaxy Research stated.

Bitcoin is also expected to continue to attract attention in investment markets. Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US could manage a total of over $250 billion in assets, reinforcing BTC's role as a leading alternative asset. By 2025, its market capitalization could rival 20% of gold's valuation, affirming its position as a top-performing investment.
