Swiss digital bank Sygnum says nearly 60% of institutional investors bet long on crypto

With a focus on crypto’s long-term upside, Sygnum Bank finds institutional investors prioritizing exposure to web3 assets amid global economic uncertainty.

The report attributes the confidence to expectations of higher returns as well as the emerging crypto “megatrend,” which is boosted by strong interest in the space.

Despite investors’ confidence, the short-term outlook is mixed. Per the Swiss bank, more than 50% of investors are adopting a neutral stance heading into Q4 2024.

“Asset volatility is now the biggest challenge to crypto investing, followed by security and custody concerns and the lack of regulatory clarity.”
