Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise Asset Management, sees Trump’s new financial policies as a boost for cryptocurrency in 2025. He shared his thoughts on post X, previously Twitter, saying:
“The world is on the brink of major changes in business and finance.”
Horsley also speculated that the Trump administration might ease restrictions on mergers and acquisitions. This could allow companies like Amazon to buy Instacart and Google to acquire Uber. He noted, “The big may get bigger, and the middle may shrink.” Yet, for him, any movement signifies progress. He’s “super fired up” about the future.
Trump administration may unfreeze M&A.
Large corporates — mag 7, etc — may finally be able to wield their market cap. Amazon could buy Instacart. Google could buy Uber. etc etc
The big may get bigger, and the middle may shrink.
If that happens, I think it will accelerate…

Growing Corporate Adoption Of Bitcoin And Tokenization
The Bitwise CEO also mentioned the growing corporate interest in Bitcoin, pinning a post listing the top 70 corporate Bitcoin holders to predict that more corporations will adopt the “Bitcoin standard” in 2025.
Supporting this outlook, HODL 15 Capital reported that 11 publicly traded companies have expanded their Bitcoin stash in the past week alone, and at least 16 billionaires have invested in Bitcoin. Horsley’s comments came just days after MicroStrategy co-founder Michael Saylor hinted at another Bitcoin acquisition as high-profile institutional investments in the cryptocurrency continue apace.

2025 is going to see a lot of corporations joining the Bitcoin standard. @saylor has written the playbook for a movement. https://t.co/gZ9Jk2oV4B

Horsley also contributed to tokenizing everything that may change the face of equity markets. While most discussions have revolved around the demand side, such as democratizing access to money market funds, he said the true innovation comes from the supply side.
Whereas just about 4,600 companies in the U.S. have access to public equity markets, he said, over 200,000 generate over $10 million in revenue a year. “For these companies, tokenization can be a revolutionary new possibility,” Horsley wrote, and an opportunity to spread opportunities for smaller firms and change how capital is raised and traded.
Horsley’s comments envision a fast-changing financial landscape in which cryptocurrency, tokenization, and corporate adoptions may completely alter market dynamics.
Converging traditional finance and blockchain technology may bring unprecedented opportunities for growth and innovation as regulatory and economic policies continue to be shaped under the Trump administration.
Whether those predictions become a reality remains to be seen, but Horsley’s optimism surely underlines the possibility of transformational change in crypto and financial markets over the coming years.
