CoinDesk analysis indicates that as the crypto market matures, institutional investors are looking beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum to manage concentration risk and capture broader market opportunities through multi-asset indices. Glenn Williams Jr., a crypto market analyst at ProShares, stated that market leadership can change over time, and over-concentration in the two largest assets may limit portfolio exposure. The CoinDesk 20 Index aims to provide more balanced and diversified exposure to crypto assets through a weighted methodology that caps the largest constituent at 30% and other constituents at 20%. A 2026 survey by EY-Parthenon and Coinbase revealed that 73% of institutional investors plan to increase their crypto allocations in 2026, and 74% expect crypto prices to rise in the next 12 months.
