Institutional investors are set to replace retail investors as the major holders of digital assets, according to new research from digital currency asset manager Grayscale Investments.
A new international study found more than seven out of 10 (71%) of professional investors believe institutions will hold 60% of digital assets within seven years, reversing the current status where institutions hold around 3% of digital assets and retail investors 97%.
The research among professional investors who control $182.5 billion assets under management found almost total agreement that institutions will replace retail investors as the main holders of digital assets – only 4% said it will never happen.
