BeInCrypto spoke with prominent figures from the crypto and Web3 ecosystem to
explore how these enduring trends are expected to shape the year ahead.
The Rise and Risks of Meme Coins: A 2025 Outlook
Meme coins remain a significant driver of market activity. This category
stands out from other crypto narratives by attracting retail traders with its
straightforward appeal and viral potential. Often launched as lighthearted
tokens with limited utility, their success largely hinges on the strength of
their community.
In 2024, meme coin generators revolutionized the segment. This innovation
enables users without technical expertise to easily create and launch their
own tokens, further driving the trend s popularity. For instance, data
revealed that Pump.fun, a popular meme coin launchpad on Solana , has
facilitated the launch of over 3 million tokens, generating $187 million in
revenue.
Moreover, according to CoinGecko’s 2024 quarterly report, meme coins were one
of the most profitable narratives of the year. Thus, these combined
backgrounds spark predictions of a potential “meme coin supercycle” in 2025,
leading the experts to believe meme coins will continue to capture attention
in the crypto space.
“Unexpected trends like utility NFTs or viral meme coins could still dominate
the spotlight,” Anton Bukov, co-founder of 1inch , told BeInCrypto.
Meme coins’ appeal, while enticing, carries significant risks. According to a
recent report from Chainplay, nearly one-third of investors have suffered
losses due to meme coin scams . This phenomenon showcases the importance of
exercising caution when investing in meme coins, despite their profit
potential.
Vivien Lin, Chief Product Officer at BingX , warned that with the bull market
on the horizon, retail investors might chase quick profits, increasing their
exposure to potential losses.
“To sustain growth, the industry must focus on purposeful development and
prioritize onboarding users with long-term goals in mind,” Lin suggested.

decentralized applications in the next year. Rob Dawson, CTO at Consensys ,
emphasized the critical role AI will play in 2025, both as an opportunity and
a challenge.
“Following on from the trends, I think the impact of AI, and how it fits in
will be a key challenge in 2025,” Dawson stated.
Anton Bukov echoed this sentiment. He envisions AI-enhanced solutions driving
the next wave of innovation, particularly leading to a DeFi renaissance across
EVM chains, TON, and Solana.
On the other hand, CoinEx Research highlighted the transformative potential of
AI agents. They noted that these tools are already automating complex tasks in
decentralized finance (DeFi).
“What started with ‘Truth Terminal (GOAT)’ as a chatbot has quickly evolved
into role-play companions, investment DAOs, on-chain transaction executors,
and even Web2 utilities like purchasing physical gifts. As AI agents get more
integrated with on-chain logic, we think it opens up a world of
possibilities,” the CoinEx Research team observed.
Additionally, Steve Milton, co-founder of Fintopio , emphasized the role of
AI-powered crypto projects in advancing DeFi and other areas. He noted that
the AI market would solidify its position by enabling smarter DeFi solutions,
more sophisticated trading algorithms, and enhanced fraud detection,
“These projects will play a pivotal role in automating complex processes,
making decentralized applications more efficient, and driving adoption in
various industries,” Milton explained.
Experts Weigh In on RWA s Evolving Use Cases in 2025

tokenization emerging as a key area of growth. This innovation bridges
decentralized and traditional finance, unlocking new investment opportunities
and improving market accessibility.
“RWA tokenization allows for fractional ownership, increased liquidity, and
greater accessibility to previously illiquid assets. This shift represents a
significant opportunity for investors to diversify their portfolios,” Vivien
Lin elaborated.
Ruslan Lienkha, Chief of Markets at YouHodler , expanded on this point. He
noted that RWA tokenization extends beyond finance into other industries.
“By enabling fractional ownership and increasing liquidity, tokenization is
unlocking new investment opportunities while expanding the use cases for
