US High-Income Investors Shift to Crypto Assets as Advisors Lag on Crypto Services, Zerohash Survey Finds
A Zerohash survey summarized by COINOTAG News shows that 35% of U.S. high‑income investors aged 18–40 shifted custodians after their advisors did not offer crypto assets. Transfers largely fell between $250,000 and $1 million, with roughly 50% of movers coming from households earning above $500,000. The findings highlight rising demand for crypto exposure among affluent clients and a reevaluation of traditional wealth platforms.
Looking ahead, 84% of respondents plan to increase their cryptocurrency holdings next year, while 92% seek a broader token mix to diversify portfolios and manage risk.
Industry observers note that cryptocurrency has become a standard element of modern asset allocation, and advisors who do not offer compliant, insured crypto services risk higher customer churn as demand shifts toward transparent custody and risk controls.
