Over the past decade, the global financial market has undergone tremendous changes. In 2015, the total market capitalization of the US stock market reached 24 trillion dollars, while the total market capitalization of the encryption currency market at that time was only 4 billion dollars, resulting in a staggering difference of about 6000 times between the two.



However, fast forward to today in 2025, this gap has significantly narrowed. The total market capitalization of the US stock market has grown to $63 trillion, while the total market capitalization of the cryptocurrency market has climbed to $4 trillion, narrowing the gap between the two to just about 16 times. This data fully demonstrates the explosive growth of the encryption asset market.

It is worth noting that in this $4 trillion encryption market, the total market capitalization of encryption concept stocks reached $3.28 trillion, accounting for a significant share. At the same time, the total reserve of Bitcoin reached $436.6 billion, while the total reserve of Ethereum was $12.6 billion, demonstrating the strong strength of mainstream encryption currencies.

What is even more striking is that there are already 121 listed companies in the U.S. stock market establishing their own encryption asset reserves. This trend indicates that traditional financial institutions are gradually accepting and integrating into the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Global capital is flooding into the encryption market at an unprecedented speed and scale. This is not just a short-term phenomenon, but rather heralds the arrival of a new era. In the next decade, we are likely to witness further integration of encryption assets with traditional finance, as well as the profound changes in the financial system that will result from this.

This transformation is not only reflected in the numbers but also in people's views and expectations for the future of finance. With advancements in technology and the gradual improvement of the regulatory environment, encryption assets may play an increasingly important role in the global economy. For investors and financial institutions, closely monitoring developments in this area and adjusting strategies in a timely manner will become particularly important.
