On December 28th, Anthony Pompliano, a venture capitalist and bitcoin advocate, told Fox Business that digital assets are maturing and gaining a place in the acceptance of the traditional financial community. "I think the big thing in 2025 will be that cryptocurrencies have grown up and become part of the traditional financial system. There are pros and cons to that. But now we have a place at the table - you can see donations and influence on the political stage. But you will also see that in finance now, and I think that will be a huge boost to bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in 2025."
