Institutional Investors Continue Warming Up To Cryptocurrencies

Retrieved on:

Wednesday, November 2, 2022

NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The 'smart money' continues to pile into crypto as a portfolio diversification strategy. Nowadays, family offices, hedge funds, and legacy money managers have a very different sentiment on crypto products and services, considering that a whopping $17 billion worth of institutional capital was poured into the space this year alone. Just last month, Apollo Capital, a fund manager with over $500 billion in assets under management, launched the Apollo Capital Frontier Fund, which will focus on NFT infrastructure, decentralized finance and multichain infrastructure. And financial heavyweights Charles Schwab, Citadel Securities and Fidelity Investments, also announced the launch of a new crypto exchange, EDX Markets. Although there is a lot of pent-up demand from institutional investors to participate in the digital asset class, most aren't able to access the ecosystem directly, making companies like Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:COIN), Hut 8 Mining Corp. (NASDAQ:HUT) (TSX:HUT), CleanSpark (NASDAQ:CLSK), Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:C) and WonderFi Technologies Inc. (TSX:WNDR) (OTCQB:WONDF) which can provide that access attractive to investors.

Key Points:

Recent metrics show that due to the ongoing cryptocurrency and stock market downturn, investors are now holding onto their crypto at an increasing rate.
"Until recently, Canadian investors only had the option to stake on unregistered platforms," said WonderFi President and Interim CEO, Dean Skurka.
"As a result, this placed undue risk on Canadian investors, and provided limited oversight in the event that things went wrong.
By working with our regulators, and utilizing our external custodian, BitGo, and our institutional staking provider, Figment, we are focused on reducing counterparty risk for our clients.
