Ripple Exec Explains Why 2025 Will Be Big for Crypto

Why 2025 is the Year Crypto Goes from Zero to Hero! 🚀💰

So, Cassie Craddock, the big cheese over at Ripple, has this wild theory that 2025 is going to be the year when crypto finally gets its act together. I mean, who doesn’t love a good prediction? It’s like reading your horoscope but with more numbers and less astrology. 🌌

She’s noticed that BlackRock and Societe Generale Group are making some seriously bold moves in the crypto world. I mean, they’re practically throwing money at it like it’s confetti at a wedding. 🎉 Craddock thinks this trend is going to pick up speed faster than a toddler on a sugar high.

“In 2025, those still sitting on the sidelines need to stop playing with their toys and start collaborating with the grown-ups,” she said. Because, let’s be real, tokenisation isn’t going to scale itself, folks! 🧩

And get this: she’s all about digital asset custody being the next big thing. Apparently, if you’re an early bird who invests in partnerships and knows what the heck you’re doing, you’ll be swimming in market share and trust. Sounds easy, right? Just sprinkle some magic dust and voilà! 🪄

Oh, and did I mention Ripple just dropped a cool $250 million on a Swiss custody firm called Metaco? Because nothing says “we’re serious” like a hefty price tag. 💸

By the end of this year, Ripple is flexing its muscles in the custody sector, trying to outshine Coinbase and Fireblocks. They’re aiming for a whopping $16 trillion in crypto assets under custody by the end of the decade. No pressure, right? 😅

And in a plot twist worthy of a soap opera, Ripple and IBM have teamed up to offer a safekeeping service for Garanti BBVA, a Turkish financial services company. Because why not? The more, the merrier! 🎭

After a rollercoaster ride of legal drama in 2024, Ripple is now ready to take on the world. They’ve even gone on a hiring spree in the U.S. because nothing says “we’re back” like a bunch of new employees after a lawsuit scare. 🎢
