High-Income U.S. Investors Are Moving On as Crypto Options Remain Limited

A recent survey by crypto infrastructure firm Zerohash shows a major shift among wealthy U.S. investors. About 35% of investors between the ages of 18 and 40 — all earning high incomes — have left their financial institutions simply because their advisors don’t support crypto investments. Many of them moved anywhere from $250,000 to $1 million to firms that do.

For those making over $500,000 a year, the number is even higher, with half of them already switching providers.

The survey also highlights growing confidence in the crypto market.

• 84% of participants plan to boost their crypto holdings in the coming year.

• 92% want access to a wider variety of digital assets.

Zerohash notes that crypto is no longer a niche addition to a portfolio — it’s becoming a core part of modern investing. The company also warns that advisors who don’t offer secure, compliant crypto services risk losing clients to firms that do.
