Crypto equities have surged by an impressive 119% year-to-date, outpacing Bitcoin and almost every major asset class, according to analysts at 10x Research.
Data from Yahoo Finance shows that stocks of companies involved in the crypto space, including Coinbase, Circle, and Robinhood, have posted double-digit gains of over 20% in the first half of 2025 while registering new highs.
One standout performer during the period was Circle, which initially projected a $5 billion valuation in May but has seen its market capitalization soar to $41 billion, with shares now trading around $180—double the $80 target set by major institutions like J.P. Morgan and Goldman Sachs.
The impressive growth contrasts sharply with Bitcoin, which saw a modest gain of less than 15% during the same period.
10x Research noted that the growth of crypto equities signals Wall Street’s increasing interest in the emerging industry due to the favorable regulatory environment in the US.
Considering this, the analysts concluded:
“While 2024 was defined by Bitcoin ETF inflows, 2025 is shaping up to be the year of crypto equities. This includes not only the wave of IPOs expected to follow Circle’s momentum, but also already-listed crypto-related stocks—from miners, to diversified firms like Coinbase and Galaxy, to treasury-heavy companies such as MicroStrategy and Metaplanet.”
