Andrew Lunardi, Head of Growth at Immutable, expressed strong optimism about a cryptocurrency market rebound in the second half of 2025.
Optimism for Market Recovery
Andrew Lunardi is confident that the current slump in the cryptocurrency market is temporary. He believes that by 2025, the market will start to recover, facilitated by the fading prominence of meme coins. This shift, according to him, will redirect liquidity towards more stable altcoins.
Role of Regulatory Clarity
According to Lunardi, a major catalyst for market growth will be the anticipated regulatory clarity from the Trump Administration. On the Milk Road podcast, he said that the administration's upcoming policies on token compliance could unlock significant investment opportunities, especially from institutional investors.
Impact of Institutional Capital
Lunardi believes that institutional capital inflows and the rise of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) will provide significant support to the cryptocurrency market, stabilizing prices and facilitating broader adoption. He highlights Bitcoin and Solana as the most promising assets despite the popularity of meme coins.
While Lunardi remains optimistic, he acknowledges potential challenges posed by macroeconomic factors like tariffs and inflation, which could impact the market in the short term.
