Survey: 82% of high-net-worth investors want crypto investment advice, but more than half do not trust their financial advisors

Odaily Planet Daily News: The latest survey released by crypto asset management company CoinShares shows that although more than 80% of high net worth and second-high net worth investors hope that financial advisors can provide advice on crypto assets, many people do not trust the professional ability of advisors. The survey pointed out that investors generally believe that advisors lack practical experience and find it difficult to accurately explain risks, which becomes 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 encryption, can educate, and can manage risks. Data shows that 89% of coin holders plan to increase their crypto investment in 2025, and more than half pay attention to or trade every day, indicating that crypto assets have become one of the core configurations. In addition, compliant products such as ETFs and trusts are gradually replacing exchanges as the preferred entry point for investors. CoinShares pointed out that as the market matures, whether advisors truly understand crypto assets will determine the depth of their relationship with customers.
