The digital assets market continues to experience significant growth and evolution in 2025, driven by increased institutional adoption, key regulatory developments, and product innovation. Today, the total market capitalization of digital assets stands at approximately 5.5 trillion Canadian dollars, which is up more than 50 percent from a year ago. This coincides with important legislative developments in the U.S. last week, dubbed “Crypto Week,” with Bitcoin recently hitting a new all-time-high of 168-thousand Canadian dollars. Joining the show today to talk about these developments and what may lie ahead for Bitcoin and digital assets is Chris Kuiper, Vice President of Research at Fidelity Digital Assets.
