Survey: 82% of high-net-worth investors want crypto investment advice, but over half don't trust their financial advisors

A recent survey released by crypto asset management firm CoinShares shows that while over 80% of high-net-worth and next-high-net-worth investors want financial advisors to provide advice related to crypto assets, many do not trust the advisors' professional capabilities. The survey points out that investors generally believe that advisors lack practical experience and find it difficult to accurately explain risks, which has become a barrier to trust.

CoinShares CEO Jean-Marie Mognetti said that investors are no longer satisfied with passively accepting advice, but hope that advisors can become strategic partners who understand crypto, can educate, and can manage risk. Data shows that 89% of coin holders plan to increase their crypto investment in 2025, and more than half pay attention to or trade daily, indicating that crypto assets have become a core allocation.

In addition, compliant products such as ETFs and trusts are gradually replacing exchanges as investors' preferred entry point. CoinShares pointed out that as the market matures, whether advisors truly understand crypto assets will determine the depth of their relationship with clients. [Odaily星球日报]
