Bitwise CIO: Financial Advisors Shift Focus From Bitcoin to Stablecoins, Tokenized Assets
Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan said financial advisors remain interested in crypto but have shifted from Bitcoin to stablecoins and tokenized assets. He expects these products to drive the next market cycle recovery.
Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan noted that financial advisors are still keen on cryptocurrencies, yet their focus has moved away from Bitcoin toward stablecoins and tokenized assets. He described this shift as the most important takeaway from current market trends.
According to Hougan, every new growth cycle in crypto history has combined breakthrough products with fresh investor types. He believes that the prolonged correction expected in 2026 will be overcome by the rising popularity of stablecoins, real-world assets (RWA), decentralized perpetual futures, and other products delivering real value.
The comments highlight a changing institutional appetite as the industry looks beyond Bitcoin for the next wave of adoption.
