Crypto ETPs normalizan activos digitales

The growing use of cryptoasset ETPs is normalizing the inclusion of digital assets within standard portfolio allocations, according to a new global study by Nickel Digital Asset Management (Nickel), a European leader in digital asset hedge fund management based in London and founded by former executives from Bankers Trust, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan. The research, conducted among more than 200 senior executives from institutional investors and wealth managers, reveals that 84% agree that the rise in the use of cryptoasset ETPs will normalize digital assets in allocation models within three years, with 26% showing strong agreement with this statement.

More than half (55%) of respondents state that it is very likely they will use cryptoasset ETPs for the first time in the next two years, either to increase their exposure or to make their initial investment. About a fifth (19%) indicate that they already use them, while 23% point out that they are quite likely to invest in them. Only 3% appeared unsure or unlikely to use them.

Respondents show confidence in the expansion of global net inflows into digital asset ETFs: more than four out of five (81%) expect net flows to increase in the next 12 months, including 19% who foresee very significant increases.
