Once considered speculative investments, cryptocurrencies are becoming increasingly incorrect. In Europe, Wisdomtree is at the forefront of leading that burden. The Global Financial Services firm offers a series of bags listed in the stock market (ETPs) that offer diversification and an incredibly easy to buy and sell cryptographic assets.
Here Dovile Silenskyte, director of Digital Assets Research at Wisdomtree, discusses the evolution of Crypto as a class of assets, the most recent adoption trends and the last Wisdomtree ETP based on the Coendesk 20 index.
How do you see that cryptography becomes more similar to a traditional asset class?
As with each kind of assets, diversification is essential. Investors are diversified in capital and bond positions, so it should not be different when considering capital allocation to cryptocurrencies. Trusting only in Bitcoin is similar to having only one stock in a capital portfolio, which is a suboptimal strategy in terms of risk -adjusted yields. A well diversified approach in multiple digital assets can improve exposure to the broader growth of the sector.
As the digital asset class evolves, investors require a point of reference to measure performance, investment and commerce. The Coendesk 20 index serves as the reference index for the cryptography industry and is the most negotiated cryptography index in the world: it could be seen as Crypto’s S&P 500. Taking a broad and diversified approach through Coendesk 20 provides a practical way of accessing opportunities throughout the digital asset market.
For investors who lack access to deep cryptographic knowledge, broad -based cryptography indices offer a simplified way to obtain exposure to market without the complexities of the tokens selection. As well as ETF investors use index -based funds to obtain equity exposure without the collection of shares, a diversified cryptographic index allows systematic and passive participation in the growth of digital assets.
What kind of adoption trends have you seen in the past? Are there geographical nuances that you have observed?
After more than 15 years of existence, multiple cycles of boom and fall and more than half a billion users, cryptocurrencies have consolidated their place as an important class of assets instead of a passing trend. Bitcoin and Ether have become comprehensive components of institutional portfolios.
Despite the long -term growth potential of cryptocurrencies, many investors are not yet sure. With a total market capitalization of approximately $ 3 billion, the ecosystem and the cases of use are constantly growing. The cryptographic market is now a similar (or larger) size as basic institutional investments, such as high -performance bonds, bonds linked to inflation and small emerging market caps.
Cryptographic adoption is not monolithic: it varies between geographies based on regulatory landscapes, institutional infrastructure and economic needs. Europe is leading the road with investors that can invest in products quoted in the Bitcoin Exchange stock market during the last 5 years and now have access to a wide range of ETP of a single coin and cryptocurrency basket.
How is Wisdomtree allowing this next growth phase beyond Bitcoin?
Wisdomtree has been providing access to crypto through ETPs since 2019. Since then, it has increased its range to include ETP that provides exposure to five other individual currencies and four diversified basket products, including its new ETP that provides exposure to the Coendesk 20. When incorporating the rethinking into an ETP crypt, investors can obtain exposure to the growth of these networks at the time they participate in their safety and Governance

The strategy helps investors to avoid the complexities of selecting individual assets, since it aims to provide safe and diversified exposure to approximately 90% of the cryptographic market for market capitalization, which helps shape the next wave of innovation. The strategy also provides a highly diversified entry point in the cryptographic ecosystem, further democratizing access to a historically difficult market in the market to obtain exposure. And finally, the strategy also aims to provide a rethink performance.
