Crypto's Big Moment: Why Rules and New Ideas Are Changing the Game

Goldman Sachs, a major player on Wall Street, thinks the crypto world is about to get a big boost. They believe clearer rules and new ways to use crypto are making it easier for big companies to jump in. Right now, the biggest worry for these companies is not knowing what the rules are. But things are changing fast. The U. S. government is working on new laws that could make everything clearer. This could be a big deal, especially before the next big elections in 2026. Goldman Sachs did a survey and found that 35% of big companies say unclear rules are their biggest problem. But 32% also say that clear rules would be the biggest reason they would start using crypto more.Even though big companies are still careful, they are starting to put more money into crypto. Right now, they have about 7% of their money in crypto. But 71% of them plan to put even more money into crypto in the next year. Crypto isn't just about trading anymore. Goldman Sachs points to things like tokenization, DeFi, and stablecoins as areas that are growing fast. Stablecoins, for example, have grown to nearly $300 billion in value thanks to new rules passed last year. Big banks are also starting to get involved. Changes in the rules have made it easier for them to work with crypto. This could be a big step forward for the industry.
