Crypto’s Most Influential Year: Major Events of 2024 That Redefined the Industry

It has been a historic year for the crypto industry. With so many
industry-defining moments throughout 2024, we have pinpointed five of the most
influential events that drove the cryptocurrency• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта market to its all-time high.

From the SEC’s approval of Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs to the crazy meme coin• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета rally, here are
the top five events that shaped the crypto market• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта in 2024.

The SEC Approves Spot Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs

In Q4 2023, Grayscale achieved a surprising legal victory against the SEC
regarding converting its Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin Trust to an exchange-traded fund (ETF). This
created an exciting anticipation for asset management firms to take Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin
into institutional markets, which materialized in January 2024.

This year started with the SEC approving 12 Spot Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs , marking
Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin’s first entry into the US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США retail investment scene. The impact was
immediate, as retail investors poured millions into these funds. In fact,
Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs saw the fastest growth than any other ETFs in history.

Consecutively, Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin broke its 2021 all-time high in less than two months of
the approval, breaking the $70,000 barrier in March. This success also
influenced other global markets like the UK to introduce Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin-based
exchange-traded products (ETPs) . Weekly Net Inflows in Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs

As of Christmas 2024, the 12 US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США spot Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs had a total net asset of
over $105 billion, representing nearly 5.7% of the BTC supply. Most notably,
these ETFs now hold more assets under management (AUM) than Gold ETFs .

The staggering success of Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs in the US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США opened doors for crypto’s
institutional adoption. Soon after, Ethereum• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Ethereum ETFs were also approved , and
several other altcoins have similar applications with the SEC.

This year’s market momentum has shown us• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США the significant role of regulated
financial products in driving adoption. The significant inflows into existing
ETFs highlight a strong demand for regulated crypto investment tools.
Financial institutions are incentivized to broaden offerings if market
performance supports additional assets. Looking ahead to 2025, we expect more
diverse crypto ETFs entering the market,” Forest Bai, Co-founder of Foresight
Ventures told BeInCrypto.

While Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin ETFs opened the doors, industry experts think 2025 will set a
much grander stage, and diverse crypto ETFs will dominate the retail market.
Kadan Stadelmann, CTO at Komodo Platform, thinks Solana ETFs have the upper
hand as Donald Trump previously launched his NFT collection• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » NFT - невзаимозаменяемый токен on the network.

However, some industry experts are more cautious, showing concerns that the
increasing inflow of these funds could lead to liquidity challenges.

“Crypto has its own cycles, and retail activity, DeFi growth, and global
adoption play a big role too in price movements. That said, there’s a risk if
too much liquidity gets tied up in traditional markets through ETFs. For
crypto to thrive long-term, we need to focus on building decentralized
solutions that don’t rely solely on external validation,” John Patrick Mullin,
CEO & Co-Founder of MANTRA told BeInCrypto.

The Surge of Solana Meme Coins

The crypto community will always remember 2024 as the year of the Solana meme
coin• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета craze . While meme coins have existed on Solana for some time, platforms
like Pump.fun propelled their popularity.

This momentum placed Solana’s meme coins in the 4th spot for investor
interest, accounting for 7.65% of crypto narrative discussions , according to
CoinGecko. Top Crypto Narratives in 2024. Source: CoinGecko

Also, the collective market cap of Solana-based meme coins now exceeds $16
billion. In fact, three of the top five meme coins in the market, including
Dogwifhat (WIF) and BONK, operate on the Solana network. WIF surged by 1,100%
this year , while BONK recorded a staggering 38,000% growth over two years.

“While meme coins have been popular, I believe their dominance will fade as we
shift towards meaningful utility and real adoption. Emerging technologies like
AI agents and confidential computing will drive attention to more impactful

use cases,” said Jonathan Schemoul, CEO of Aleph.im and lead
contributor to LibertAI

Meanwhile, this surge in meme coin• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета activity also elevated Solana to the
position of the second-largest blockchain• Информационные технологии » Информационно-коммуникационные технологии » Информационные технологии и телекоммуникации » Базы данных » Публичная база транзакций » Блокчейн

• Высокие технологии » Информационные технологии и телекоммуникации » Базы данных » Публичная база транзакций » Блокчейн
, trailing only Ethereum• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Ethereum. The
network’s total value locked (TVL) surpassed $8.6 billion, as SOL• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета » Соль (монета) reached an
all-time high of $263 in November.

So, what made Solana so popular for meme coin• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета creators in 2024? The answers
are scalability and accessibility. Tools like Pump.fun streamlined the process
of launching tokens, requiring minimal effort to create and deploy a meme
coin• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета.

“2024 cemented Solana’s dominance in the meme coin• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета market, but 2025 may bring
diversification as AI meme coins gain traction. With companies like ai16z and

frameworks for autonomous AI agents, creating
AI-driven tokens is more accessible than ever. This could encourage projects
to explore other blockchains, such as Sui , which, with its fast transactions
and low costs, is naturally well-suited for AI meme coins,” Hisham Khan, CEO
& Co-founder of Atoma, told BeInCrypto.

Additionally, Solana’s low transaction fees have fostered widespread
participation, blending humor with financial opportunity. These factors
contributed to the explosive growth of meme coins on Solana throughout 2024.

However, the extreme volatility of such meme coins has been a concerning
factor for the market. Recent stats revealed that the majority of the Solana
meme coin• Отдых, развлечения » Хобби » Коллекционирование » Нумизматика » Монета traders are actually losing money. Only a handful are making the big
bugs due to speculative trading.

“There is a rotation from memes to meaning, from quick pumps and rug-pulls to
projects building for the future with real utility, and real community
adoption,” said Matt O’Connor, Co-founder of Legion, in an interview with
BeInCrypto.

Donald Trump’s Election Victory

While crypto is all about decentralization, the political influence in the
industry is undeniable due to the regulatory factor. Donald Trump s
election victory in 2024 has significantly impacted the cryptocurrency• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта
industry, ushering in a period of optimism and growth.

His administration s pro-crypto stance has already led to several key
developments even before his official presidency begins.

Following Trump s win, the crypto market• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта surged by nearly $1 trillion as
investors sensed an ease in regulatory scrutiny. Consecutively, Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin jumped
to new peaks, ultimately reaching the $100,000 milestone.

However, the most profound impact was on Ripple’s XRP, which was held back by
the SEC’s lawsuit for nearly four years. With Trump’s victory and his promise
to restructure the SEC, XRP jumped to a six-year high .

If the US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США continues to ease restrictions, it will create a ripple effect
globally. Countries like China• Китайская Народная Республика (КНР) and Russia may not jump on the crypto bandwagon
right away, but they’ll definitely take notice, especially as tokenized assets
and blockchain• Информационные технологии » Информационно-коммуникационные технологии » Информационные технологии и телекоммуникации » Базы данных » Публичная база транзакций » Блокчейн

• Высокие технологии » Информационные технологии и телекоммуникации » Базы данных » Публичная база транзакций » Блокчейн
tech become essential to global finance,” said John Patrick
Mullin, CEO & Co-Founder MANTRA.

The administration s favorable outlook has encouraged institutional
investors to enter the market, further legitimizing digital assets.
Trump s appointment of pro-crypto candidates such as Paul Atkins, David
Sacks, and Elon Must signals a shift towards more crypto-friendly policies.

Additionally, Trump promised to work toward a national Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin reserve during
his campaign, and his party senators are also onboard with the idea. These
discussions show a commitment to integrating cryptocurrencies• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта into the
national financial framework.

“The plan for a strategic Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin reserve is perhaps the most audacious on the
macroeconomic level. The incoming President has also confirmed plans to sunset
the push for a CBDC while promising to support policies that will boost
self-custody for crypto holders. Pro-crypto figures have a close relationship
with the president, which might be instrumental in helping the incoming
administration keep its crypto promises,” Maksym Sakharov, Co-Founder of WeFi,
told BeInCrypto.

The pro-crypto policies have already spurred a global increase in crypto
adoption. Notably, there has been a 683% rise in users aged 18–25 , indicating
growing interest among younger demographics.

European markets have also seen substantial inflows into crypto-related
exchange-traded products, reflecting widespread optimism about the
industry s future.

“The US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США shift could trigger greater legitimacy and institutional adoption
worldwide, potentially setting a standard for other regions to follow. One
standout region is Hong Kong, which has emerged as a critical gateway for
China• Китайская Народная Республика (КНР)’s crypto market• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта and innovation• Экономика » Бизнес » Инновация. Hong Kong’s progressive stance on crypto
is evident—it launched Ethereum• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Ethereum ETFs earlier than the US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США, demonstrating its
openness to digital assets,” said Forest Bai, Co-founder of Foresight
Ventures.

As the industry continues to evolve, such ongoing support from the highest
levels of government is likely to play a crucial role in shaping its future
trajectory.

Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin Reached $100,000

Perhaps the biggest yet most predicted event of 2024 was Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin’s $100,000
milestone . This was a psychological milestone for Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin and the overall
crypto community. Reaching the six figures reflects its maturation as a
financial asset, boosting both institutional and retail investment confidence.

For companies like MicroStrategy, which always championed a Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin-first
strategy, this was an assertion of their projections. This is reflected in
MSTR’s stock performance and its recent inclusion in the Nasdaq-100 .

Additionally, since the $100,000 milestone, more governments have started
considering the idea of a Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin reserve , recognizing its store of value.
This includes countries that once had a pessimistic perspective toward crypto,
such as Russia and Japan.

Corporations like Amazon are also reportedly exploring Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin investments ,
signaling the potential integration of cryptocurrencies• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта into their business• Экономика » Бизнес
models. Such interest from major corporations could drive further adoption and
innovation• Экономика » Бизнес » Инновация within the crypto ecosystem.

“While this historic milestone demonstrated how policy shifts catalyze
institutional adoption, recent pullbacks remind us• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США that even Trump s
pro-crypto stance was quickly priced in after the initial rally. Key financial
hubs around the world are already recalibrating their approaches. However,
market volatility will likely persist amid macro-economic uncertainty,
particularly given the Fed• Экономика » Экономика США » Макроэкономика США » Федеральная резервная система США

• Объект организация » Организации по алфавиту » Организации на Фе » Федеральная резервная система США
s unclear rate cut timeline for 2025,” OKX
Global CCO, Lennix Lai told BeInCrypto.

In summary, Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin reaching $100,000 enhanced its legitimacy and encouraged
broader adoption across both public and private sectors. However, the threat
of volatility still remains high due to macroeconomic uncertainty.

Gary Genslar’s Resignation

Gary Gensler s tenure at the SEC was challenging for the crypto industry
in the US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США. However, with Trump’s re-election, the SEC is starting to undergo
significant restructuring.

In November, Gary Gensler announced his resignation as the SEC chair. Gensler
has been a contentious figure in the crypto industry due to his stringent
regulatory approach.

“Gensler s policy was one extreme, but the remaining question is if we
will shift to another extreme. I think there is already progress in pushing
forward a neutral stance and regulation/adoption from the SEC,” Sander
Gortjes, CEO of HELLO Labs, told BeInCrypto.

During his tenure, Gensler asserted that most crypto tokens qualify as
unregistered securities, necessitating compliance with existing securities
laws. This perspective led to enforcement actions against major crypto
exchanges, including Binance and Coinbase , for operating without proper
registration.

Critics argue that Gensler s regulation by enforcement
strategy created an environment of uncertainty and hindered innovation• Экономика » Бизнес » Инновация within
the crypto space. Meanwhile, Trump has already named Paul Atkins as his
replacement , who has been a long-term advocate for digital assets.

“The path to further regulatory clarity in crypto needs a lot more pieces to
fall into place: regulators worldwide need to get on the same page, markets
need to mature, and institutions need to be ready. More pro-crypto regulations
could bring more institutional players to the table, but it s worth
remembering that crypto s innate volatility. Those 10-15% Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin swings
and even bigger moves in smaller tokens will persist regardless of the
regulatory environment,” said OKX Global CCO, Lennix Lai

The crypto community views this transition as an opportunity for a more
favorable regulatory environment, anticipating that the new administration
will adopt policies that support the industry s development.

Gary Gensler is not the origin of the crypto crackdown by the US• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Доллар США SEC.
However, he amplified the enforcement actions beyond his predecessors. With
Paul Atkins, innovators in the market might find it easier and more rewarding
to relate with the regulator,” WeFi Co-Founder Maksym Sakharov told
BeInCrypto.

Overall, Gensler s tenure at the SEC was marked by a rigorous stance on
cryptocurrency regulation• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта, leading to significant friction with industry
participants who perceived his policies as obstacles to innovation• Экономика » Бизнес » Инновация and growth.
