Crypto.com has announced its ambitious roadmap for 2025, revealing major upgrades across crypto, stocks, banking, and card services. With new trading options, AI-powered tools, and innovative financial products, the company plans to expand its ecosystem.
In early 2025, Crypto.com will focus on expanding its exchange, making it easier for users to buy and sell crypto with fiat currency. The company will also introduce Bitcoin rewards, giving users new ways to earn while transacting. By the second quarter, Crypto.com plans to launch a Crypto Rewards Maximizer, helping users maximize their earnings. Institutional investors will also benefit from a new secure custody solution.
This comes as no surprise, given the U.S. president’s strong support for crypto and keen interest in Bitcoin. There are clear signs that the U.S. could establish a Bitcoin Reserve in the coming months.
Institutions are also increasing their Bitcoin investments, creating a growing need for secure custody solutions. Many will rely on trusted platforms to manage their holdings. Recognizing this demand, major custody firms like BNY Mellon, Standard Chartered, Citigroup, and State Street are moving into crypto custody.
The third quarter will see the launch of Cortex AI, an AI-powered trade tool that optimizes cryptocurrency investments. Crypto.com will also launch its stablecoin, Cronos One.
AI is no longer just a research topic. The launch of ChatGPT by OpenAI on November 30, 2022, introduced the world to one of AI’s most accessible use cases. Since then, innovations like DeepSeek have shown AI’s vast potential.
According to Statista, the AI market is expected to reach $243.7 billion in 2025. With a projected annual growth rate of 27.67% from 2025 to 2030, the market could grow to $826.7 billion by 2030.
Trump’s executive order against a CBDC is a “yes” to stablecoin development. This opens a new opportunity for many firms who are interested in creating stablecoin products based on the US dollar. Firms like Robinhood and Kraken are among the top financial institutions looking forward to launching stablecoins.
Crypto.com hinted that it will introduce margined derivatives, an ETF proposal for Cronos, its native token, and a Singularity API. Margined derivatives offer leverage, allowing traders to control larger positions with less capital, which can increase potential returns.
If approved, the Cronos ETF (Exchange-Traded Fund) proposal could lead to more institutional investment and broader adoption of Cronos (CRO). The proposal could also boost the visibility of Crypto.com as a key player in the crypto space, potentially attracting more users to its platform.
The Singularity API typically refers to an application programming interface related to SingularityNET, a decentralized AI marketplace that allows users to create, share, and monetize AI services.
Crypto.com’s expansion isn’t limited to crypto. In early 2025, it will introduce stock and ETF trading, followed by stock options in the second quarter. Later in the year, it will roll out FX, commodities, and index derivatives, giving investors more ways to diversify.
The company is also making major moves in banking. Starting in the first quarter, users will be able to open personal multi-currency accounts. By mid-year, Crypto.com will offer interest on cash balances and instant global transfers for just one cent. In the final quarter, the company will launch international bank accounts and business banking solutions to allow individuals and businesses to manage their finances globally.
Crypto.com is also upgrading its card services. Credit cards will launch in the second quarter, followed by the Prime Card in the third. Its users will have access to a 10% travel rebate by Q4 2025.
