According to Ronen Kojocharu, co-founder of ARCKADL and 8081.io, in 2025, cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, XRP, and SKALE should be considered.
Bitcoin (BTC)
The growth of the leading coin has historically been impressive year over year: according to YCharts, it surged by 153.9% over the past year. Experts predict that by 2025, BTC will be valued between $100,000 and $150,000, while its current price is approximately $96,288.
“Bitcoin is increasingly being viewed as a serious form of investment, akin to gold,” said Kojocharu. “The limited supply and rising demand together make the coin a reliable long-term investment.”
Ethereum (ETH)
The second-largest cryptocurrency is Ether, which is crucial for the operation of decentralized applications (dApps). Throughout 2025, Ethereum is expected to trade within the range of $2,548 to $5,500. In fact, the blockchain's transition to a proof-of-stake model has also made it more energy-efficient and faster for users.
According to YCharts, ETH increased by 78.50% compared to the previous year.
“As Ethereum has become 'greener' than it was a year or two ago, it will become more popular as it consumes less energy,” said Kojocharu. “This change also makes it faster and cheaper to use, which is important as more people begin to create and use applications on it.”
Solana (SOL)
This is a fast network with low transaction fees. Its scalability and developer-friendly environment have significantly contributed to its growth, showing an annual growth rate of 316.5% over the past year. As Kojocharu notes, Solana is likely to become even more valuable as it already attracts major projects like ORCA, Jupiter, Solend, and Marine Finance.
It is expected that in 2025, the price of Solana will fluctuate between $184 and $555. However, Solana also risks facing network delays as well as competition from other fast blockchain solutions. Additionally, regulatory changes could impact Solana's operation in the broader context of the cryptocurrency market.
