The world of cryptocurrencies never stands still, and 2024 was no exception. It was a year marked by volatility, innovation and significant milestones that may set the stage for the future of digital assets. From regulatory crackdowns in major markets to the surprising embrace of cryptocurrencies by political leaders like U.S. President Donald Trump, the narrative around crypto has become more complex than ever before.

Major cryptos like bitcoin continued to dominate, bolstered by institutional investment and integration into traditional finance. At the same time, Ethereum's transition to proof-of-stake matured, driving innovations in decentralized applications (dApps) and DeFi. Meanwhile, emerging sectors such as AI-driven tokens and meme coins captured the imagination of a new wave of investors, underscoring the diversity and dynamism of the cryptocurrency space.
