This was stated by the founder of the Ukrainian cryptocurrency community Financial Freedom Academy (FFA), Oleksandr Orlovskyi, as reported by RBK-Ukraine referencing UNIAN. Reports are also coming from Kontrakty.UA.
While analyzing the future prospects of specific coins, Oleksandr Orlovskyi highlighted the limited growth potential of Bitcoin in 2025, estimating it to be within 20-40%. However, coins like Solana or Ethereum, which start their growth trajectory later than BTC, could potentially double in value.
If an investor is aiming for significant returns, it is advisable to focus on new coins and meme coins. These have considerable growth potential, but it is important to note the higher risk of losing funds. Orlovskyi warns that it is impossible to predict the exact success of each currency in the crypto market, so one must choose between risk and potential profit.
"In the crypto market, prophecies do not work, so it is impossible to provide a 100% guarantee of a particular coin's victory in capitalization races. When selecting a token, we always balance between confidence in it and the profit it may yield. As in all markets, the greater the confidence, the smaller the profit," noted Oleksandr Orlovskyi.
The main challenges for crypto investors in 2025, according to the FFA founder, are the downturn in the cryptocurrency cycle and the increasing influence of investment funds and banks. The former is a natural phase in the life cycle of cryptocurrency, and the main goal is to earn before the fall. However, altering the rules set by major players is beyond the reach of ordinary investors. Thus, the primary tactic may involve analyzing their behavior and replicating it, particularly in token selection and buying-selling operations.
Technologically, the cryptocurrency market will develop organically – blockchain technology will become increasingly productive and will occupy new niches, not just in crypto.
Even in Ukraine, the Ministry of Digital Transformation has announced the development of a Sandbox tool that will utilize blockchain and AI in state services. Regarding artificial intelligence, it is already integrated into crypto processes. According to Orlovskyi, major crypto investors are using it for analysis and forecasting.
An important event for crypto traders in Ukraine will be the legalization of cryptocurrency. According to predictions from the tax committee of the Verkhovna Rada, this could happen as early as the first quarter.
However, according to Orlovskyi, the Ukrainian government is not choosing the path of the UAE, which, through favorable taxation, has integrated the crypto market into the financial system without inconveniences for traders. Crypto investors in Ukraine will face taxes similar to those on securities. Nevertheless, legalization could position our country as a leader in the virtual currency market.
All these factors only emphasize the essential characteristic of effective earning strategies – flexibility. The crypto market, like the stock market, will react to key events: from elections to wars.
"Be prepared to restructure your earning strategy and constantly monitor the crypto market and the global political-economic scene. Analysts from Financial Freedom Academy (FFA) regularly track current market trends and promptly provide this information to our crypto community members," emphasized FFA founder Oleksandr Orlovskyi.
