Kevin O'Lery, chairman of O'Leary Ventures and star of the "Business Shark" show, called the main catalyst for future growth in cryptocurrency not speculation but the emergence of clear regulatory framework in the US. In his view, legislative clarity would be the trigger for massive inflows of capital from pension and sovereign funds, as well as large corporations that have so far avoided digital assets due to a lack of clear custody, trading, and taxation rules.

The businessman noted that many investors mistakenly expected an automatic inflow of institutional money after the update of the historical Bitcoin maximum in October. However, without a regulatory framework, big players are afraid to take risks. O'Leary added that the same situation is observed with the implementation of blockchain in business processes: the technology 14 years promises a revolution in logistics and contracts, but will become the accepted standard only after enshrining relevant provisions in laws.

O'Leary has previously commented on the practical benefits of the crypto industry, stating that dollar stablecoins are now more valuable than Bitcoin. According to him, stablecoins are much less prone to volatility and more frequently used for real payments and remittances, making them a more practical tool in uncertain conditions.
