Bitcoin price fluctuates but adoption hits new highs: institutions, banks, and countries accelerate BTC reserve deployment
February 25 News, financial services firm River's latest report shows that although Bitcoin prices have fallen about 50% from their all-time high, the global adoption rate of Bitcoin continues to rise in 2025. Institutions, banks, publicly listed companies, and sovereign funds are accelerating their BTC allocations, driving Bitcoin's gradual transition toward a mainstream store of value. The report indicates that the growth rate of Bitcoin trustworthiness has surpassed that of most traditional assets, and its adoption process remains in an expansion phase rather than entering a recession cycle.
Data shows that by 2025, institutions will hold approximately 829,000 BTC, including corporate balance sheets, government reserves, funds, and related financial products. Registered investment advisors have been net accumulating Bitcoin for eight consecutive quarters, with an average quarterly inflow of about $1.5 billion into related asset allocations over the past two years, demonstrating that long-term capital is continuously entering the digital asset market through compliant channels. Meanwhile, about 60% of large US banks are developing Bitcoin custody, investment, and payment-related products, benefiting from a clearer crypto regulatory environment.

XRP Ledger Questioned for "Centralization"? Ripple CTO Responds, Decentralization Controversy Heats Up Again
February 25 News, the debate over whether XRP Ledger (XRPL) is a centralized blockchain has quickly heated up in the crypto community. Justin Bons, founder and CIO of Cyber Capital, publicly questioned the decentralization of XRPL, arguing that its reliance on the Unique Node List (UNL) mechanism essentially makes it a "permissioned blockchain," deviating from the true permissionless crypto network concept.
Justin Bons pointed out that XRPL validators typically refer to recommended node lists published by a central authority. Deviating from this list could lead to network forks, thereby structurally creating potential governance centralization risks. He also categorized XRPL alongside networks like Stellar, Hedera, and Algorand as "permissioned architectures," emphasizing that blockchains not based on PoW or PoS consensus might be closer to an authority proof model (PoA), making it difficult to achieve full trust minimization.
