"2025 Crypto Chronicles"

Author: Amelia I Biteye Content Team, Bbo I XHunt Operations Team
Preface: Not just tweets, but slices of history.
In 2025, the main battlefield of Crypto is not only on-chain and exchanges but also in the lines of Twitter.
This year, we witnessed Trump issuing coins, the release of the stablecoin bill, the crash on October 11, the listing of Hashkey, and also saw the retreat of memes, the rise of prediction markets, RWA on-chain, investigative revelations, and the declaration that "the crypto world is dead" flooding the screens.
Prices may retract, projects may vanish, but tweets that truly change cognitive structures will be read, quoted, and retold repeatedly.
Thus, we compiled this review:
Not just looking at views, but a comprehensive assessment of dissemination power (QT / RT), informational value, author influence, and whether it genuinely changed the direction of community discussions.
These tweets have stabilized market sentiment, torn the industry's veil; some directly propelled a narrative to take off, while others made the entire community rethink its direction.
Together, they form the most important "public memory fragments" of the Chinese and English Crypto world in 2025.
Below are the top 10 most influential Crypto tweets in the Chinese and English sectors from Biteye's perspective 👇

💡 In Conclusion: Influence Goes Beyond Tweets
How far a tweet can go depends not only on its retweet count but also on whether it can strike a chord with the community, drive cognitive evolution, or even rewrite the script of the industry.
In 2025, influence no longer belongs solely to price calls and emotional outputs; what is truly shared repeatedly are real experiences, on-chain evidence, institutional conflicts, value clashes, and the direct confrontations between politics and finance.
Looking back at these 20 high-impact tweets in both Chinese and English, you will notice a clear shift:
The Chinese sector has clearly moved towards practicality, reflection, and demystification this year; while the English sector has officially entered a phase dominated by politicization, compliance, and macro narratives.
This is not a question of good or bad, but a signal: Crypto has completely stepped out of its small circle and begun to bear the weight of the real world.
This list is not the end but a snapshot.
