2025 Progress: Advancing Institutional Crypto Innovation
In the first half of 2025, the digital assets industry has experienced a positive momentum as regulators, particularly in the US, introduced clearer frameworks like the GENIUS Act and CLARITY Act, providing a friendlier environment for digital assets. These developments have accelerated large institutions to actively invest in cryptocurrencies and this upward trend has driven demand for secure institutional services, contributing to Ceffu’s continuous growth with innovative solutions such as MirrorRSV and strategic partnerships, reinforcing our role as a trusted provider of compliant, institutional-grade custody and liquidity solutions.
Quick Recap: Key Highlights from early 2025
