Happycoin.club – Because of US President Donald Trump, the volume of deals in the crypto industry set a new record in 2025.
From January 1st to December 23rd:
The number of purchase agreements for institutions, concluded by companies operating in the digital assets sector, rose by 18% compared to 2024 and reached 267;
The value of contracts almost quadrupled, amounting to $8.6 billion.
The ranking of enterprises making the largest transactions was headed by:
The Coinbase exchange, which acquired the cryptocurrency derivatives trading platform Deribit for $2.9 billion;
The Kraken exchange, which paid $1.5 billion for the futures trading venue NinjaTrader;
The issuer of XRP (XRP), the firm Ripple, which purchased the broker Hidden Road for $1.25 billion.
The reason for the boost in business activity turned out to be Trump’s crypto-friendly policy. Specifically, under his administration, investigations into the activities of digital asset-related businesses were stopped, and an executive order on stablecoins was adopted, clarifying the regulatory measures for the circulation of virtual currencies with a stable value.
Furthermore, in 2025, 11 cryptocurrency firms conducted initial public offerings and raised capital totaling $14.6 billion through them. These companies included, for instance, the creator of USDC stablecoins (USDC) Circle, as well as the exchanges Bullish and Gemini, which secured up to $1.1 billion from the securities sale.
