Coinbase Survey: 83% of Institutional Investors Bullish on Crypto
- Coinbase says, 83% of institutional investors plan to increase crypto holdings, marking a shift toward mainstream adoption.
- Stablecoins and DeFi see rising interest, with 84% engaged and DeFi participation set to triple by 2027.
- 68% believe regulatory clarity will drive broader adoption despite market challenges.
Institutional investors are expressing record, with 83% saying they plan to increase their holdings this year, a Coinbase and EY-Parthenon report indicates. The survey, published on the Coinbase blog, surveyed 352 institutional decision-makers. And highlights mainstream adoption of digital assets is increasing as regulatory clarity rises and use cases expand.
The poll found that 59% of respondents plan to have more than 5% of their assets under management (AUM) invested in digital assets in 2025. The shift speaks volumes about how crypto is evolving from an investment in speculation to becoming a core component of institutional portfolios.
Stablecoins and DeFi on the Rise
Stablecoins are gaining traction, with 84% of investors using or considering using them for purposes beyond payments. Including generating yield, foreign exchange, and cash management. DeFi is also set for enormous growth. While 24% of investors surveyed currently participate in DeFi.
They’re likely to surge to 75% by 2027 as institutions find lending, staking, and derivatives in the DeFi markets.
Bitcoin and Ethereum retain the largest market share, but 73% of institutional investors hold alternative cryptocurrencies as well. XRP and Solana are the most widely held altcoins. Investors are also turning to single-asset exchange-traded products (ETPs) to invest in individual digital assets.
Despite the bull image, most of the major threats still lie in regulatory uncertainty (52%), market volatility (47%), and security issues (33%). Despite that, 68% of users believe that smoother regulation will bring institutional crypto charging onto another wave.
As much as increasing commitments, expanded use cases, and institutional adoption remain, crypto momentum appears to be moving towards sustained existence in 2025 as emphasized by recent data from Coinbase.
