Grayscale predicts improvement in the crypto market
Date: 2025-04-03 Author: Henry Casey Categories: BUSINESS
According to the March report by Grayscale Research, the situation in the crypto market may improve if political instability decreases and the economy continues to grow. Otherwise, in the context of a recession caused by trade conflicts, cuts in government spending or other economic factors, the value of cryptocurrencies may continue to decline.
On April 2, US President Donald Trump announced new trade tariffs without specifying which countries would be affected. Earlier, on March 30, he announced his intention to apply tariffs "against all countries" with the possibility of further revision. Grayscale experts note that uncertainty regarding tariffs and government policy creates instability in the market, but some of the negative expectations are already reflected in current prices.
The report highlights that for new investors, the current crypto market downturn may be a good time for long-term investments. Since the beginning of 2025, cryptocurrency prices have fallen significantly, which opens up opportunities to form strategic positions in digital assets. Analysts believe that investors should consider this period as a potentially favorable time to enter the market.
At the time of publication, Bitcoin is trading around $85.5 thousand, which is 22% lower than the historical maximum of $109 thousand reached in late January after the inauguration of US President Donald Trump. Despite the current decline, Grayscale specialists note the improvement of the crypto market fundamentals.
Key positive trends include the growth of the real-world tokenized asset (RWA) market, the discussion of the stablecoin bill in the US, and the creation of Bitcoin reserves by large companies such as Strategy. These factors indicate strengthening institutional interest in cryptocurrencies.
Analysts also draw attention to global changes in the field of crypto regulation. China, which previously banned cryptocurrency trading and mining, allowing only their ownership, may change its stance. In Hong Kong, under the “one country, two systems” concept, authorities are considering expanding cryptocurrency-related activities. This has become possible due to discussions among Chinese politicians and the judiciary, which are studying how to regulate cryptocurrencies in future cases. Grayscale suggests that China’s reconsideration of its stance on cryptocurrencies could significantly accelerate their global adoption. Overall, analysts see prospects for a recovery in the crypto market in the coming months, which is especially important amid ongoing macroeconomic changes.
