PANews reported on January 12 that Nate Geraci, president of The ETF Store, released 10 predictions for crypto-related ETFs in 2025, and believed that the Trump administration will adopt a significantly different policy towards cryptocurrencies than the Biden administration, which may make 2025 the "first year of cryptocurrency ETFs." The main predictions are as follows:

- Spot Ethereum ETF options trading approved
- Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs allow physical creation/redemption
- Spot Ethereum ETF staking approved
