Where does crypto go from here?

Ok so it's clear now the next big wave in blockchain will be US regulatory clearance followed by banks/tradfi onboarding onto blockchain with new digital asset classes via private bank chains.

We have:

• The incoming US President building a DeFi protocol and connecting it with bank chains
• Large financial powers like Brazil building CBDCs to connect with bank chains
• Mega financial institutions like SWIFT, the DTCC, ANZ and UBS building new asset classes across bank chains.

All this via Chainlink but ETH is also onboarding banks an other F500 company products, and I'm sure there are other tokens doing some stuff and. We of course have the full-on acceptance of Bitcoin as an asset class and of itself, but apart from this I don't see much happening with any sense of real adoption, and Bitcoin is now being stewarded by... you guessed it... banks!

This seems to be kind of the death knell for those who were hoping blockchain would lead to some sort of complete upending of the current global financial system.

What are you most excited about given where things are going? Where do you think we'll be by end of 2025? How are you playing the market?
