Franklin Templeton’s $1.6T CEO Reveals Top Crypto Investment Plays for 2025

Massive asset manager drops bullish crypto blueprint—and it's not just Bitcoin they're backing.

The traditional finance giant just gave digital assets its strongest institutional endorsement yet. With $1.6 trillion in assets under management, Franklin Templeton isn't just dipping toes—they're diving headfirst into crypto waters.

Stablecoins lead the charge as the gateway drug for institutional adoption. Tokenization of real-world assets follows close behind, turning everything from real estate to royalties into tradable digital slices.

And of course, Bitcoin remains the cornerstone—digital gold for the balance sheet era. Ethereum's smart contract dominance gets a nod too, though the competition's heating up faster than a GPU mining rig.

Because nothing says 'serious investment' like betting billions on internet money while traditional banks still can't figure out their own blockchain pilots.
