2025 proved to be a landmark year for crypto infrastructure advancement. Across the ecosystem, 48 major projects launched spanning wallets, trading platforms, messaging solutions, infrastructure layers, and onchain systems—enabling teams to transition from prototype stage to production-ready, scalable solutions.

Key trends emerging throughout the year reflect where the industry is heading:

• Wallet UX improvements and mobile abstraction solutions dominating developer priorities
• Cross-chain interoperability becoming critical infrastructure
• User experience enhancements driving mainstream adoption

These developments signal the maturing of the crypto stack, with focus shifting from experimentation to delivering products that actually scale.

48 projects? Sounds impressive, but how many are actually in use? --- Cross-chain interoperability is really urgent; the current fragmentation is too severe. --- Another year has passed. No noticeable improvement in wallet experience; mine still crashes constantly. --- From testing to production readiness... Sisters, I hear this every year. Feels like we're still in the testing phase. --- Mainstream adoption? Which mainstream? My mom still doesn't know what a wallet is. --- Been hyping it up for a year, but the coin price hasn't gone up. What's the use of good infrastructure? --- Is this really different this time, or just another big pie in the sky? I remain skeptical. --- The mobile abstraction solution is finally getting attention; it was about time.

48 projects? Sounds like a lot, but how many can actually survive? --- We've been talking about UX improvements for so long, but wallet user experience is still the same. I find it hard to believe. --- Is cross-chain interoperability really becoming the key? Feels like we're still in the exploration stage. --- From prototype to production-ready, this is said every year. Is this finally the year it becomes a reality? --- Mainstream adoption? My friends around me still don't touch cryptocurrencies, haha. --- Will 2025 really be different from the past, or is it just another round of hype? --- Finally, someone is seriously working on wallet experience. This should be the priority. --- Breaking through in cross-chain is really impressive; the fragmentation is too severe right now. --- What does maturity mean? Feels like we're still in the experimentation stage.

48 projects sound like a lot, but how many of them will actually survive until next year? --- I'm optimistic about wallet experience; finally, someone is seriously developing a product. --- Cross-chain has been hyped for so many years, and now there's finally some movement. --- From trial to production readiness, to put it nicely, it's still the same group of users. --- Another year of infrastructure development. When will we see real application deployment? --- I think mobile abstraction is the only reliable direction; everything else is too虚 (虚 means "虚" in Chinese, which can be translated as "虚" or "虚" depending on context.

48 projects sound impressive, but how many can actually survive? By the way, the wallet experience definitely needs to be improved. --- Cross-chain has been hyped for so many years, and it's finally starting to take shape. However, interoperability is the real key. --- From prototype to production readiness, it sounds easy but actually doing it is deadly. Let's hope they can survive the bear market. --- Improving user experience == mainstream adoption? Why do I feel like something is still missing? Don't tell me it's just another hype concept. --- 2025 is just around the corner, what about next year? Won't it just be a repeat performance? --- Looks good, but out of these 48, how many are real applications with actual value? Or is it just a pile of useless infrastructure?
