Survey: Over 61% of Institutions Plan to Increase Cryptocurrency Investment, 55% Have Short-Term Bullish Outlook

BlockBeats News, November 11th. Despite a significant market correction in October, institutional investors remain confident in digital assets, with the majority of institutions planning to further increase their allocations in the coming months. A report released on Tuesday by the Swiss crypto bank group Sygnum showed that over 61% of institutions plan to increase their cryptocurrency investments, with 55% holding short-term bullish expectations. This survey covered 1,000 institutional investors globally.

Around 73% of the surveyed institutions stated that allocating to crypto assets is expected to provide higher returns in the future, despite the industry still being in a recovery phase following the historic $200 billion plunge in October. However, investor sentiment continues to face uncertainty, primarily due to delays in key catalysts such as the "Market Structure Bill" and more ETFs for altcoins.

Lucas Schweiger, Chief Research Officer of the Crypto Asset Ecosystem at Sygnum, pointed out that this uncertainty may persist until 2026, but he predicted that the digital asset market will increasingly mature, with institutions seeking diversified allocations for long-term growth expectations. "The theme of 2025 revolves around a mix of prudent risk management, pending regulatory decisions against the backdrop of fiscal and geopolitical pressures, and robust demand catalysts. However, investors are now more rational. Market discipline has suppressed irrational exuberance but has not shaken the belief in long-term growth trends."
