Kevin O’Leary reveals key catalysts that could reverse the bearish trend

The crypto market is currently facing significant pressure, largely due to US President Donald Trump’s trade war and deteriorating macroeconomic conditions. These factors have put markets under strain, with some analysts predicting that the bull run is over and a bear market may be on the horizon.
In a recent Cointelegraph interview, Kevin O’Leary, also known as “Mr. Wonderful,” shared his thoughts on the current state of the market and what could be ahead. Despite the turbulence, O’Leary remains optimistic about the future of Bitcoin (BTC). He explains that while the market is under pressure, he still expects Bitcoin to end the year higher as a couple of key factors come into play.
A key issue discussed in the interview is the need for regulatory clarity, especially surrounding stablecoins. O’Leary is particularly focused on the GENIUS Act, which he believes will be passed imminently by the US Congress. “We have been waiting for almost seven years for this legislation. I have a feeling it’s going to make it, and when that happens, it’s a game changer,” O’Leary said.
The passage of the GENIUS Act, which aims to provide regulatory clarity around stablecoins, should boost the adoption of dollar-backed stablecoins. This move is expected to bring much-needed stability and legitimacy to the crypto market, helping to mitigate some of the ongoing risks. O’Leary also shared insights into his personal crypto portfolio, revealing a diversified mix of assets in his portfolio.
