A global survey of Chief Financial Officers has revealed that hedge funds are planning to hold 7% of their wealth in crypto within the next 5 years.

Reuters has described the survey results as a major vote of confidence for cryptocurrency assets within the current market environment.

The Hedge Funds Crypto Survey

Financial administrator Intertrust conducted the survey with over 100 CFOs participating from all over the globe. Chief Financial Officers, or CFOs, are executives who are responsible for managing their company’s finances.

As per Intertrust, the results of the survey indicate that hedge funds plan to increase their crypto assets in the next five years.

An average figure based on the responses shows that by 2026, funds aim to keep $313 billion in digital assets, which is around 7.2% of their total assets.

Another interesting finding from the poll is that 17% of the survey takers believe their funds will work with at least 10% of their assets as crypto, a figure that is around 3% higher than the average.

It’s unclear what the current crypto holdings by the funds look like, but one thing worth noting is that many big-names in the sector seem to already have invested appreciable amounts in digital assets.

Increasing Interest In Cryptocurrency

While huge volatility and uncertainty over regulation keep the majority of traditional asset managers skeptical about cryptocurrency, the hedge funds survey shows that there is still a growing interest in digital assets.

Executive Director at Quilter Cheviot Investment Management says hedge funds “are well aware not only of the risks but also the long-term potential” of crypto assets.

Examples of firms that have already invested in digital assets include Man Group, Brevan Howard, and Renaissance Technologies. Some of the big-name fund managers who have also committed are Alan Howard and Paul Tudor Jones.

Another prominent case is Skybridge Captial, a US-based firm setup by Anthony Scaramucci, that invested into Bitcoin late last year. Due to trimming their investment early in April, Bitcoin became the largest contributor of their gains.

Overall, it is clear that there is a growing enthusiasm towards crypto assets in the industry.

Bitcoin Price

At the time of writing, Bitcoin price hovers over $39,280. The asset is down 11% in the past 30 days, but up 12% in the past 7 days. Here is a chart noting the change in the price of the cryptocurrency:

While BTC seems to be back on track for going up, it’s not yet clear whether we are looking at a bullish market. Some experts believe we may be witnessing a bull trap.

Keshav is currently a senior writer at NewsBTC and has been attached to the website since June 14, 2021.

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.

In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.

Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.

Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..

Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.

Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.

As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.

Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.

Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
