According to CoinDesk, Bitwise Research Director Ryan Rasmussen stated that as the stablecoin market expands to a scale of trillions of dollars, Circle's value is underestimated by the market. Rasmussen expects the stablecoin market to grow from about $300 billion to $3 to $5 trillion, with Circle having a first-mover advantage due to its existing market share as U.S. stablecoin regulations take shape.He believes that Circle will not only become a stablecoin giant but also a payment giant—its payment infrastructure under construction will play a key role in a stablecoin-driven financial system, yet investors are still too focused on its reserve business. Rasmussen compared Circle's potential development trajectory to that of Visa and Mastercard, arguing that the entry of banks and other giants is not a major threat, as the pace of market expansion is sufficient for Circle to maintain growth. He mentioned that Circle's Arc blockchain will test whether it can expand from stablecoin issuance to the payment infrastructure sector, with the key in the coming year being how its economic model changes with the adoption of stablecoins and the development of infrastructure.

Grayscale Research Director Zach Pandl stated that the global alternative asset market has grown nearly 7 times since the 2008 financial crisis, with the share of private equity, private credit, hedge funds, physical assets, and cryptocurrency in global portfolios continuing to rise. According to the data he cited, within alternative assets, private equity accounts for about 29%, hedge funds about 23%, and cryptocurrency about 13%.Zach Pandl mentioned that differences in intergenerational allocation preferences may further strengthen this trend. According to a Bank of America survey of high-net-worth individuals, investors aged 21 to 43 allocate about 53% of their assets outside of traditional stocks and bonds, while the proportion for those aged 44 and above is 26%. With over $100 trillion in wealth expected to transfer to younger generations in the coming years, their stronger preference for alternative assets may provide ongoing tailwinds for cryptocurrency.He added that the lowering of entry barriers to alternative assets is one of the reasons for this shift, with cryptocurrency developing along similar paths; regulated products like Bitcoin ETPs and institutional-grade market infrastructure provide more convenient access to exposure.

Grayscale Research Director Zach Pandl stated that even if the Clarity Act does not pass, the main blockchain operations, the demand for Bitcoin as a store of value, and the growth of stablecoin payments will not be immediately affected, and regulators will fill the regulatory gaps through rule-making.Zach Pandl pointed out that the lack of comprehensive market structure legislation may suppress new investment activities in the U.S., prompting participants in the crypto industry and startups to turn to overseas jurisdictions with clear regulatory frameworks. The U.S. government will continue to support the development of the crypto ecosystem. Strategy co-founder and Executive Chairman Michael Saylor previously stated that regardless of whether the Clarity Act passes, Bitcoin will continue to evolve, but the U.S. needs clarity in digital asset regulation. Senator Bernie Moreno stated that Senate Democrats and Republicans have concluded relevant negotiations and will proceed to a vote.

Zach Pandl, the head of research at Grayscale, published an analysis stating that although the Clarity Act may still reach an agreement on a technical level, the Senate schedule and the political reality of an election year make the likelihood of passing it this year very low, but the impact is limited. The failure of the bill will not immediately affect the operation of major blockchains, the demand for Bitcoin as a store of value, or the growth of stablecoin payments— the industry has been developing without this bill for nearly 17 years. However, the lack of comprehensive market structure legislation may hinder new investment activities in the U.S., including the development of the tokenized securities market and the regulatory framework for digital asset intermediaries. Under the current administration, regulatory guidance has supported the industry through measures such as new rules for institutional custody, improved bank access, staking policies, and the crypto ETP framework. The SEC and other regulatory agencies are expected to continue filling gaps through rulemaking. The lack of comprehensive regulation may lead to more entrepreneurial activities flowing overseas.
