Nexo’s Future of Digital Wealth 2026 report surveyed 1,000 affluent investors across the US, UK and Argentina. It found that 67% own crypto, while just 4.7% are deeply integrated users. Nearly 20% expect crypto to become their top wealth driver over the next decade.
Why it matters
Ownership is already common among the surveyed investors, but deep integration remains rare. The report identifies operational infrastructure as the key barrier to using crypto more fully in wealth management.
Market impact
The findings point to a divide between investor interest and the systems needed to support broader use. Nearly 20% expecting crypto to become their top wealth driver signals ambition, while the 4.7% integration figure shows how much adoption still depends on practical infrastructure.
