Bitwise forecasts AI agents’ tokens will dominate meme coin markets, creating a mania bigger than 2024.
Bitcoin is expected to exceed $200,000 in 2025 due to halving and institutional adoption.

Bitwise Investments forecasts that tokens launched by AI agents will drive a larger meme coin surge in 2025 compared to 2024 levels, according to the firm’s “10 Crypto Predictions for 2025” report.

The report highlights how AI tools like Truth Terminal, Clanker, and other autonomous agents have already demonstrated their ability to drive viral token launches, with GOAT and other tokens achieving billion-dollar valuations.

Bitwise predicts this innovation will explode in 2025, as more platforms integrate AI capabilities for token creation.

The report states that AI and crypto represent a unique technological collision that is only just beginning, with the potential to reshape markets and drive unprecedented innovation in the digital economy.

In their second key prediction, Bitwise expects Bitcoin to break past $200,000 in 2025, bolstered by the April 2024 halving, corporate and institutional interest, and an improved regulatory climate in the US.

Bitwise also predicts Ethereum will reach $7,000, driven by ETF inflows and Layer 2 growth, while Solana is forecasted to hit $750, supported by its meme coin dominance and project adoption.

This aligns with Bitwise’s forecast of another record year for Bitcoin ETFs, which gathered over $33 billion in 2024.

The report predicts even higher inflows as major wirehouses like Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley expand access to these products.

The report anticipates more countries will add Bitcoin to their strategic reserves, pointing to legislative initiatives in Poland and Brazil.

Bitwise also predicts US stablecoin legislation will pass, pushing stablecoin assets to $400 billion by year-end, while tokenized real-world assets are expected to exceed $50 billion.
