Coinbase\u2019s Institutional Investor Survey<\/h2>\n

The Nasdaq-listed cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase published Thursday the findings from a survey it sponsored to understand how decision-makers at U.S. institutions view digital assets. The survey was conducted independently by Institutional Investor Custom Research Lab between Sept. 21 and Oct. 27.<\/p>\n

A total of 140 institutional investors in the U.S. participated in the survey, representing about $2.6 trillion in assets under management. Coinbase was not involved in sourcing the respondents.<\/p>\n

Coinbase wrote:<\/p>\n

\n

Institutional investors increased their allocations during the crypto winter, with many using this as an opportunity to learn and build for the future.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201c62% of investors who are currently invested in crypto increased their allocations in the past 12 months (vs. 12% who decreased their allocations). This is evidence that institutional investors have continued to take a long-term view of the asset class even as prices have fallen,\u201d the crypto firm detailed.<\/p>\n

In addition, Coinbase shared:<\/p>\n

\n

58% of investors expect to increase their allocations over the next three years. A majority of investors (59%) are currently using or planning to use a buy-and-hold approach.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cOverall sentiment towards digital assets has remained positive with 72% supporting the view that digital assets are here to stay (86% among those currently invested in crypto and 64% among those planning to invest),\u201d Coinbase continued, elaborating:<\/p>\n

\n

Given the current climate, this is a strong signal of the acceptance of crypto as an asset class.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWhile some investors categorize digital assets as either real assets\/commodities or as alternative assets, more investors are creating their own category for crypto or classifying crypto as part of innovation or emerging technologies. This is also evidence of a long-term opportunity that may emerge in the future,\u201d Coinbase further described.<\/p>\n

Despite crypto winter, Coinbase said institutional investors are still bullish about crypto long-term, stating:<\/p>\n

\n

The price outlook over the long term remains positive with 71% of investors saying that they expect digital asset valuations to increase over the long term.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
