Family! Recently, the backend private messages have been flooded with questions, all asking 'Which market should we heavily invest in for 2025?' and 'Can we still hold onto a certain single market?' I could only slam my thigh! It's already 2025, and you're still fixated on a single market? You're not making cryptocurrency investments; you're punishing your own wallet! Today, let's get straight to the point and break down 3 disruptive signals for cryptocurrency regional layout reversal. Those who understand have already started quietly adjusting their positions, while those who don't might have to step into the pit for another year!
First, let me share some heart-wrenching data with everyone. Last week, I organized the cryptocurrency profit rankings for the entire year of 2024. Those investors who only focus on a single market had an average return of only 12%, while those who made cross-regional layouts saw their average return soar to 68%, a difference of more than five times! This is not even the most critical point; what’s more terrifying is the black swan risk in a single market. Last year, a certain popular market suddenly faced regulatory policies, and how many people's positions were directly halved? Therefore, the core strategy for 2025 has long shifted from 'single-point breakthrough' to 'comprehensive layout'.
The first reversal signal: The once "marginal market" is turning into a "core incremental area". Previously, everyone focused on traditional crypto hot spots in Europe, America, and Japan, thinking that emerging markets were just small-scale activities. However, starting in the second half of 2024, the situation has completely reversed! Let me share some data with you: The growth rate of crypto users in Southeast Asia and the Middle East and Africa has exceeded that of Europe and America for six consecutive months, especially in Indonesia and the UAE, where the number of compliant trading scenarios has surged by 200% year-on-year. Why is this happening? On one hand, the policies in these regions are becoming increasingly friendly towards crypto assets, such as the UAE specifically issuing a regulatory framework for crypto asset service providers, simplifying compliance processes; on the other hand, local young people have a high acceptance of crypto, with a crypto holding rate exceeding 35% among those under 30, which is 10 percentage points higher than that in Europe and America.
Some may say that emerging markets are too volatile to touch. Here’s a practical tip: Layout in emerging markets doesn't mean heavily investing in small tokens, but rather focusing on mainstream crypto asset service projects that are compliant locally, such as exchange platform tokens with local regulatory licenses and compliant crypto payment projects. These projects not only have the incremental benefits of emerging markets but also provide compliance guarantees, with risk controllability much higher than you might imagine.
The second reversal signal: "Policy loosening" appears in traditional heavily regulated areas, so don't blindly give up. Many people previously thought that regulation in places like Europe and America was strict and directly abandoned layout there, which is actually a big misconception. By the end of 2024, after the EU's crypto asset market regulation (MiCA) is officially implemented, there will be clear policy benefits. For example, Germany has already allowed institutional investors to include crypto assets in their portfolios, with a maximum proportion of 15%; the approval of crypto ETFs in the United States has also entered a normalized phase, with 8 different types of crypto ETFs approved for listing by early 2025. What does this mean? It means that compliant funds in traditional heavily regulated areas are officially entering the market, characterized by large volumes and low volatility, serving as the "ballast" for layout.
Practical suggestions are here: For traditional heavily regulated areas, focus on compliant crypto products, such as crypto ETFs corresponding to underlying assets and stablecoin projects with clear regulatory backing. While the returns on these products may not be as aggressive as emerging markets, they are stable and can help balance the overall portfolio risk. A reminder here: be sure to avoid projects without compliance qualifications; no matter how high the promised returns, don't touch them!
The third reversal signal: "Cross-regional collaboration" has become a new trend, and single-market thinking is completely outdated. The most profitable strategy in 2025 is no longer to find opportunities in a single market, but to profit from policy differences and time differences across different markets. For example, the same compliant crypto project may launch in Southeast Asia three months earlier than in Europe and America; if you layout in Southeast Asia in advance, you can arbitrage the price difference between the two regions once it launches in Europe and America. Furthermore, some regions have relaxed policies on crypto mining while others provide subsidies for mining; by laying out mining operations across regions, you can reduce costs and increase returns.
Finally, let me summarize for everyone: For the layout of crypto regions in 2025, remember these three phrases: "Emerging markets focus on increment, traditional markets stabilize the base, and look for opportunities across regions." Don't cling to a single market anymore; the market has already changed, and if your thinking does not change, you will only be eliminated by the market. Follow me @链上标哥 , so you don't get lost!
