The celebration of the first anniversary of Spot Bitcoin ETFs with a Bitcoin-shaped cake!

The history of financial markets is marked by breakthroughs, those moments when an asset or an innovation disrupts established rules. 2024 will be remembered as the year when Bitcoin definitively crossed a milestone with the rise of spot ETFs. Long awaited, these financial products attracted record inflows, with $129 billion in assets under management in less than a year. From their launch, they generated unprecedented enthusiasm, allowing institutional investors to access Bitcoin in a regulated and secure framework. However, the impact goes beyond the numbers. Bitcoin is no longer just a speculative asset. It now competes with gold as a store of value. In November, BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF surpassed its gold-backed equivalent, a strong symbol of the changing perception among investors. As prospects for 2025 take shape, one question dominates: can this momentum be sustained? Between market consolidation, a possible expansion towards other cryptos like Solana and XRP, and the potential entry of new players like Vanguard, the year 2025 could very well redefine the balance of power in the financial markets.
