Investor Sentiment

60% of investors globally intend to improve their asset allocations, showing huge belief and commitment to cryptocurrency. On the other hand, 38% of current investors feel comfortable with the amount they are currently holding and are not eager to increase it.

Of the investors intending to maintain or boost their crypto asset allocations, 62% hoped for greater future returns, highlighting the robustness of cryptocurrency trends while 37% aimed to diversify their portfolios. Among those planning to improve their crypto asset allocation, 20% are eager and ready to invest in the next quarter.

Besides, 37% of investors believe crypto is better than traditional assets and can act as a critical hedge within the traditional market. This belief is strengthened by Bitcoin's performance in the last ten years, particularly during COVID-19. The trend is further impressive, with 53% of investors who have never gone crypto planning to make allocations for cryptocurrency.

Why are Investors Confident?

Most crypto investors are showing confidence and optimism due to recent trends. Among those trends is a growing institutional adoption by big financial entities. Besides, large corporations are adding digital assets to their portfolios. Additionally, blockchain technology and applications are running across several industries, giving investors the hope of crypto's transformative nature.

Bitcoin ETF approval in the United States and other jurisdictions has built hope among investors. They see the approvals of crypto ETFs as an opening to a larger market for crypto investors. Also, many investors are growing confident in cryptocurrencies' ability to hedge against traditional financial market risks or during global economic breakdowns.

Despite investors' bullish sentiments on crypto, it is crucial to understand the risks associated with crypto investments. The volatility of the crypto markets always leads to substantial price fluctuations, exposing investors to severe losses. Also, the regulatory lines remain faded as no single government worldwide has a solution to crypto regulations.
