The cryptocurrency market is no stranger to bold predictions, and a new report by OKG Research, the research division of the Oko Cloud Chain Institute forecasts that bitcoin could witness inflows of up to $2.28 trillion by 2025.

This projection is based on several macroeconomic and market-specific factors that the report meticulously analyzes. The research report outlines institutional adoption, regulatory clarity, global economic trends, network developments, and retail market expansion as key factors to this projection.

Institutional investors have increasingly turned their attention to bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and a digital store of value. High-profile purchases from companies like MicroStrategy, Marathon Holdings, Semler Scientific, and Metaplanet, as well as the rise of bitcoin ETFs, signal growing trust in the asset class.

Despite these significant holdings by publicly listed companies, the report states that “Only 0.01% of publicly listed companies hold bitcoin, indicating that this is just the tip of the iceberg of institutional purchasing power, and the market is still in the elite experimental stage.”

OKG Research predicts that by 2025, institutions will allocate a more substantial portion of their portfolios to bitcoin, driven by its strong historical performance and limited supply. Ongoing macroeconomic trends such as the devaluation of fiat currencies, rising inflation, and quantitative easing policies will likely accelerate the pace of bitcoin adoption.

The analysis also looks at some nations that have decided to invest in bitcoin in order to shield their wealth from the depletion caused by inflation. El Salvador and the Central African Republic have made bitcoin legal tender, while Bhutan is mining the cryptocurrency in an effort to use its decentralized nature and scarcity to reduce the risk of inflation.

The report concludes by stating that bitcoin’s fixed supply, decentralization, and worldwide liquidity will remain unaffected by short-term swings in the current macro environment. With institutions and publicly traded corporations actively vying for exposure to the asset class, it will hasten its transition to a value storage asset.
