As the survey from JP Morgan shows, 71% of institutional traders refrain from crypto in 2025, though 30% are open but very skeptical.
A new survey from JP Morgan shows that institutional traders remain conservative when it comes to crypto. Though digital assets are attracting attention, 71% of traders said they would not be looking to trade crypto this year, this year, up only a notch from 78% last year-it is a telling indication that there is strong skepticism about crypto among institutions.
On the other hand, 30% of traders show some interest in engaging with crypto, a small but consistent uptick in interest. Very clearly, however, traditional finance is not yet embracing crypto in any big way.
A survey by JP Morgan among traders showed that the greater portion is still not on board. High volatility in the crypto market, along with a constantly changing environment of regulation, stands out as the major reason for such caution. Some firms experiment with Bitcoin ETFs and investments in blockchain, but now, big players are kept away from the game by concerns over regulation, security, and overall market stability.
Crypto remains a high-risk bet for institutional traders, and it takes more than hype to get them into the pool.
