As Bitcoin has been experiencing an incredible rise lately, investor interest is also increasing exponentially.
At this point, after the increasing interest and trust in BTC and crypto, especially many institutional investors have started to consider increasing their long-term investments in cryptocurrencies.
According to Coindesk, a Sygnum survey revealed that 57% of institutional investors plan to increase their crypto investments.
A recent survey by Swiss crypto bank Sygnum showed that 57% of institutions plan to increase their crypto investments.
The bank's annual Future Finance survey was attended by 400 institutional investors from 27 countries.
31% of respondents said they plan to increase their cryptocurrency investments in the next quarter, and 32% within six months.
36% of respondents said they prefer to maintain their existing crypto investments and are likely waiting for more favorable market conditions or clearer signals before increasing their holdings.
The survey results indicated that institutions’ investment focus is particularly concentrated on scalable layer-1 networks and stablecoins such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Solana (SOL).
The majority of institutional investors (81%) added that having a better knowledge of cryptocurrencies would lead them to invest more.
Lucas Schweiger, Director of Digital Asset Research at Sygnum and author of the report, said that clearer regulations globally have increased positive sentiment among institutional investors, adding:
“Perhaps one of the most significant reasons for the increased institutional investor interest is the approval and subsequent launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US. This has the potential to accelerate institutional adoption of digital assets.
“The report also tells a story of progress and calculated risk, the use of a variety of strategies to capitalize on opportunities, and most importantly, the continued belief in the market’s long-term potential to reshape traditional financial markets.”
