factors that make speculative assets attractive

this difference in support might be the reason to let crypto stand out among previous speculative projects and thus it is no longer just all hype and crypto might eventually be used and seen as an asset with a purpose

I don't think politics will change how a new project is developed. Maybe they can lessen the number of scams, but I doubt they will make 80% of new projects have legitimate use cases. Not to mention even before that many projects do offer unique ideas, although execution always fails for various reasons, not necessarily because the government doesn't support them. The team's eagerness to develop their ideas, their ability to navigate the market, etc are also important. I think the market and developer need to change if we want to see more projects with legitimate use cases, the easiest way would be to ignore purely speculative assets but I doubt that can happen at all.

john cassidy wrote an article through the new yorker detailing about the internet bubble and what he thinks makes a big speculative asset grow in value he named four: a new technology that gets investors pumped; an efficient method they can use to communicate; the active participation of the financial industry; and a supportive policy environment.

years before crypto only had the first two: new technology and efficient method of communication but did not have the last two which were support from financial industry and policy makers but now we are seeing a shift of how crypto is perceived by the government and authorities

what do you think? do you think there are more factors that could make crypto more successful than it is now?

Yes, I think that there are many reasons will be successful in this factor. We can see that you also create four reason for this situation. So I am also agree with your prefer comment. Because we could understand in this time, bitcoin or cryptocurrency market is already achieve best position in this time. But if we follow in crypto currency market before few months ago, we can see that bitcoin price is staying under $60k in crypto currency market. So I believe that it will be true for cryptocurrency market in this position.

Not sure but the market itself, I mean there could be new investors that will come along the way, that will push some crypto to it's all time high. But we all know that majority of crypto are going to be on a bubble this 2025 and it could burst after that.

Meaning we will go on another bear market, and those factors might not satisfy the market again. What I'm saying that I do not think there could be a factor that can be used to gauge as the market is very dynamic.

bear market = lowest low, and there are investors now willing to pour their money.
bull run = everyone is on FOMO

Sooner or later this bubble will burst and even if we have a supportive government policy that Trump will have next year, no one can stop it from bursting and then bear market comes along.

Though your state is not clear about bubble and Burst, but if meant that crypto is a bubble ready to burst, it is a statement that has no bearing on the crypto economy because many people who were critical bout bitcoin speak like this in the past, but they are now ashamed.
As a matter of facts, Bitcoin/altcoins markets is not a bubble/bust schemes, but the market respond to several factors that increases price over times, like demands/supply. Again, a bear market is not a Burst market, but it is part of the market trends outcomes at certain times
