Bitwise Survey: Institutional Investors Maintained Crypto Allocations Despite 50% Market Drop

A Bitwise report surveying 15 major global institutional investors reveals that none reduced their crypto holdings during the market downturn between October 2025 and April 2026, with some firms even increasing their positions. All surveyed institutions hold Bitcoin, typically allocating 1% to 2% of their portfolios to the asset. The report also notes that while institutions hold Ethereum and Solana, they may consider selling if real-world demand fails to support price levels.
