Financial Assets Performance in 2024 and Key Drivers for 2025
Bitcoin and Ethereum led the performance charts, outpacing traditional assets and reaffirming the trend that risk assets excel during economic expansion. In 2024, the global economy—particularly the U.S.—witnessed renewed optimism, fueled by declining inflation and reduced interest rates.
Looking ahead to 2025, further rate cuts are anticipated, although Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has hinted at a cautious approach. The narrative surrounding AI adoption could serve as a catalyst, driving both stock and cryptocurrency prices higher. Another significant driver could be the growing adoption of Bitcoin as a reserve currency by government entities.
However, the already overheated market faces potential downside risks. Geopolitical tensions, particularly those stemming from trade wars, could escalate and dampen market performance.

GameFi in 2024: Growth Fueled by Incentives Over Innovation
The GameFi sector experienced significant user growth in 2024. However, the current path to success in GameFi remains largely driven by financial incentives rather than the delivery of AAA-quality gaming experiences. Developers often prioritize crypto-speculative mechanics and airdrops over leveraging the full potential of blockchain technology. This business logic is likely to persist as long as revenues continue to outweigh development costs.

Ethereum Key Milestones and Price Drivers
Ethereum's price performance in 2024 lagged behind Bitcoin, partly due to growing interest in networks like Solana, which captured attention with emerging narratives such as memecoins, AI agents, and prediction markets.
The primary catalyst for Ethereum's price growth was the approval of a spot ETF. However, trading launch paradoxically triggered a price decline, highlighting the classic "buy the rumor, sell the news" effect. Interestingly, Ethereum saw a significant price surge following Donald Trump's re-election victory.
Looking ahead, Ethereum's price trajectory seems tied to its ability to lead in adopting new narratives. Without dominating these trends, its performance appears comparatively subdued.

Bitcoin Ahr999 Index
The ahr999 index calculates the ratio of Bitcoin’s price to its 200-days moving average. It suggests that Bitcoin is currently in a fixed investment zone.
However, in past cycles, the index reached values as high as 9 and 23. Could this mean it might surpass 3 or 4 in the current cycle? One thing remains clear: the range between 1.20 and 0.45 is considered an ideal zone for accumulating Bitcoin.
