UK Economic Rebound Outpaces Europe, Crypto Markets Watch for Macro Tailwinds
Britain's projected 1.4% GDP growth in 2025 positions it as a relative bright spot in sluggish European markets. This outperformance—third among G7 nations behind only the US and Canada—could create favorable conditions for risk assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and ethereum (ETH).
Prime Minister Starmer's growth agenda coincides with institutional crypto adoption reaching record levels on exchanges like Coinbase and Binance. Market analysts note correlation between UK economic strength and altcoin liquidity, particularly for SOL and DOT.
However, consumer caution persists. Retail trading volumes for meme coins (DOGE, SHIB) remain below 2024 peaks on Bybit and OKX, while institutional products like bitcoin ETFs see sustained inflows.
