Q1 2025 was crypto’s worst in years—Bitcoin fell 12%, Ether 45%. Bitwise’s Matt Hougan called it the “best worst quarter” ever. Still, optimism is brewing: a rising global money supply, record stablecoin growth ($218M AUM), and fresh US regulation could fuel a Q2 rebound. Hougan’s still eyeing $200K Bitcoin by year-end. Sentiment’s low, but the setup’s strong—Q2 might flip the script.
