According to the latest 2025 survey data from Bitwise, cryptocurrencies are showing rapid growth in the asset allocation of financial advisory clients.

The report indicates that 32% of financial advisors have allocated crypto assets to client accounts in the past year, up from 22% in 2024, marking a 10 percentage point increase and a new high in the survey's history. This data reflects a significant increase in the recognition of cryptocurrencies within the traditional wealth management sector.

From a trend perspective, more and more professional advisors are beginning to include digital assets in clients' diversified investment portfolios. This change suggests that cryptocurrencies are gradually shifting from niche investments to mainstream asset allocation tools, with the penetration rate in institutional-level financial services continuing to rise. With the launch and improvement of compliant products such as Bitcoin spot ETFs, this growth momentum is expected to continue.

Hmm... The figure of 32% is indeed worth noting, but I am more concerned about why the other 68% of advisors haven't taken action yet. From a technical perspective, ETF compliance indeed lowers the entry barrier, which is an objective fact. But the question is—do institutions truly understand the underlying logic? Or are they just following the trend in allocation?

Mainstream adoption is underway. Traditional finance is really starting to move, no longer just talking about it.

The 32% figure is quite interesting, but the key is the mechanism design behind this 10 percentage point increase—do traditional advisors truly understand DeFi governance logic, or are they just simply adding some BTC spot ETFs and calling it a day? Historically, the MBS model also went from niche to explosive popularity, but what was the result?

Wow, 32%? What has it been, just a year? Wall Street has finally compromised. Really? Haven't these financial advisors always been stubbornly claiming that the crypto world is gambling? Now they're eating their words, haha. Wait, are their clients really making money, or are they just getting cut? This wave of Bitcoin ETF truly changed the game; compliance is the pass. I've seen the process of cryptocurrencies going from obscure to mainstream firsthand.

It's finally our turn. The traditional finance folks are also starting to increase their positions... This is recognition. --- 32%? It still needs to go higher. I bet next quarter can break 40. --- Mainstream adoption is right in front of us. Don't say we're gamblers for trading crypto anymore. --- This wave of spot ETFs is truly a turning point. Once institutions enter, there's no turning back. --- A ten percentage point increase—what does it mean? It indicates that money is flowing our way. --- Financial advisors are starting to get involved... My mom even asked if I can make money trading crypto. I can't stop laughing. --- This data is a positive signal. It will continue to climb later on. Let's wait and see.
