7 Steps Guide for Digital Asset Adoption
A Framework for Institutional Investors
Cryptocurrency investment is now mainstream.
Only a few years ago digital assets were seen as a fringe experiment, but today they are being embraced by many of the world’s most prominent investors.
Endowments like Harvard, Brown University and Yale all now have significant crypto exposures, while BlackRock, Fidelity and other finance giants have developed their own crypto products. Some US state pensions now allow investment into digital assets, and even sovereign wealth funds are participating.
While the trend is clear, many traditional allocators are still struggling to understand how to approach the opportunity.
This report provides a seven step framework for allocators positioning digital assets in an institutional portfolio.
