The plan is to fan this spark into a flame.
This line from the Broadway play Hamilton has been on my mind as I reflect on 2024. Just as Hamilton’s ambition drove him to seize his moment during the independence of the United States, we believe crypto’s moment has arrived.
Since 2018, our team has been dedicated to helping investors understand how this crypto “spark” has transformed into a powerful flame of innovation and investment opportunity. And 2024 might be remembered as the year that flame burned the brightest. The year was marked by two pivotal milestones for our industry: the approval of bitcoin ETFs at the start of the year and the election of a pro-crypto US president and Congress.
In between, we witnessed other critical developments. Large public pension plans allocated to crypto ETFs, major financial institutions advanced tokenization initiatives, and governments across the globe moved toward more fully embracing blockchain technologies.
2024 was also a landmark year for Hashdex. From launching the Hashdex Bitcoin ETF in the US, to seeing our Hashdex Nasdaq Crypto Index Europe ETP become the largest multi-asset crypto ETP in Europe1, to expanding institutional channels across Latin America’s traditional finance sector, our achievements have solidified our position and prepared us to navigate the current bull market that is taking shape.
Bitcoin and other crypto assets are closing out 2024 with a unique opportunity to deliver on their promise of an open, transparent, and accessible economy. As part of our commitment to empowering investors, we’ve compiled the Hashdex 2025 Crypto Investment Outlook, analyzing the most significant developments that we believe will shape the crypto asset invest- ment landscape in the coming year and beyond.
As we enter this new mainstream era for crypto, our team remains as dedicated as ever to ensuring that investors don’t miss this opportunity.
We’re grateful for your trust and look forward to serving you in the months and years ahead.
