Institutional investors are increasingly treating crypto as a portfolio diversification tool rather than a speculative trade, according to a quarterly survey published by CoinShares Research on May 6.

The survey, which cut across 26 fund managers overseeing a combined $1.3 trillion in assets under management (AUM). It found that diversification and client demand now account for 63% of the reasons institutions allocate funds to digital assets.

Just two years ago, that figure stood at 36%.

Two years ago, speculation was the leading reason fund managers held digital assets. Today it sits at 15%.

– CoinShares head of research, James Butterfill.

The median allocation to digital assets remained at 1%, with a weighted average of 0.1% (skewed downward by the larger institutions in the respondent pool).

Applied across the surveyed $1.3 trillion AUM, a 1% median position implies roughly $13 billion in baseline crypto exposure across this cohort alone.

Bitcoin and Ethereum together accounted for 58% of portfolio responses. Older alternatives like Cardano and Polkadot lost ground, while DeFi-linked tokens, including Aave, Sui, and Tron, attracted stronger interest.

In a research note published in May 2026, CFRA Research analyst Nathan Schmidt noted that Coinbase’s assets under custody have climbed to $516 billion, up 95% year over year, with stablecoins and crypto derivatives driving institutional adoption.

Cryptopolitan earlier reported that the Bitwise/VettaFi advisor benchmark survey found 99% of financial advisors with crypto exposure planned to maintain or increase allocations in 2026, with 64% holding more than 2% of client portfolios in crypto.

The CoinShares report confirms that institutional behavior at the asset-management level mirrors the pattern observed at the advisor level.

$110K Spring Airdrop Rain—18 Days Straight!

Bitget has introduced a new “Scan to Pay” feature that allows customers to instantly pay in $USDT by scanning QR codes at physical stores. The rollout aims to close the gap between daily spending and cryptocurrency holdings by focusing on areas with high QR use.

Bitget implemented the feature in a few Latin American and Southeast Asian areas, where QR payments already account for the majority of daily transactions. The feature removes the need for retailers to modify their systems by integrating Scan to Pay with current local payment networks. The method eliminates the need for bank intermediaries by processing transactions instantaneously.

Stablecoins shift toward everyday payment infrastructure globally

According to Bitget, the feature transforms stablecoins from passive holdings into useful spending tools for users in supported markets. Without depending on regional financial systems, it offers travelers and cross-border users a uniform payment experience. The feature also enables merchants to settle transactions without being exposed to cryptocurrency volatility and accept payments without altering infrastructure.

The deployment represents a broader shift in how digital assets function within financial systems as stablecoins gain popularity as a medium of exchange. Their usefulness extends beyond trading pairs to include payment rails that work in tandem with established networks.

Bitget revealed that Scan to Pay within its UEX model brings cryptocurrency closer to everyday life by reducing the distance between owning and using digital assets by combining trading, assets, and financial services.
The launch of the platform comes as the use of cryptocurrency is growing beyond trading platforms and into everyday financial use. This expansion is driven by the need for secure, easily accessible financial tools in emerging nations

Bitcoin: Why $93,000 Is a Key Upside Price Target




The $93,000 mark is a key Bitcoin upside target, according to an analysis from XWIN Research, a verified CryptoQuant market analyst.

The research firm’s recent analysis highlighted that Bitcoin ($BTC) continues to trade within a structure shaped by both spot demand and futures market dynamics. Amid this, one of the most closely watched elements that could influence the asset’s price movement is the CME gap.

Benchmark has cut its 12‑month price target on Bitcoin treasury company Strategy from $705 to $570, keeping a Buy rating but marking its model to a cooler Bitcoin path after a brutal drawdown in both BTC and Strategy’s stock. Summary Benchmark has lowered its 12‑month price target on Bitcoin treasury company Strategy from $705 to $570, according to a new client note cited in market reports. The investment bank is maintaining its Buy rating, but is trimming upside assumptions after a sharp drawdown in both Strategy’s share price and Bitcoin. The move follows months of volatility in Strategy stock, which Benchmark had previously defended as a sustainable levered play on corporate Bitcoin accumulation. Benchmark has reduced its target price for Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) from $705 to $570, according to market news shared on X and corroborated by recent analyst‑ratings rundowns. The firm is keeping a Buy rating, but the lower target reflects a cooler outlook on near‑term upside after Strategy’s stock slumped alongside Bitcoin from its early‑year highs. Benchmark had been one of the most bullish houses on Strategy. In multiple notes over the past year, the bank’s analyst, Mark Palmer, reiterated a $705 target anchored to an aggressive Bitcoin path, with at least one Investing.com piece noting that the model assumed BTC would reach $225,000 by the end of 2026. That framework used a sum‑of‑the‑parts approach blending the projected value of Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings, a 10x multiple on the company’s 2026 “Bitcoin dollar gain,” and a residual value for its legacy software unit. Even as MSTR fell more than 60% from mid‑2025 peaks—dropping from roughly $457 to near $150 in one six‑month stretch—Benchmark repeatedly stuck with the $705 figure, arguing in a widely circulated note that Strategy was still “a bitcoin‑focused treasury company, not a traditional soft

Bitcoin’s post-quantum migration will be harder than Taproot and needs to start now, Project Eleven CEO says

Bitcoin’s developer community should stop waiting for certainty about quantum-computing timelines and focus on getting a post-quantum signature scheme into production, Alex Pruden, CEO of Project Eleven, told CoinDesk’s Consensus Miami conference on Wednesday.

Pruden said the asymmetry between acting now and waiting favors action.

“We added some new cryptography, we kind of built in this optionality, it turns out we didn’t need quite yet, but at least we have it,” he said, describing the worst case of moving early.

The worst case of moving late is far worse: a sufficiently capable quantum computer could derive private keys from any exposed public key using Shor’s algorithm, the 1994 algorithm that remains the canonical example of what a quantum machine can do that a classical one cannot.

Pruden valued the asset at stake at roughly $2.3 trillion.

“In a very real sense, someone with a sufficiently large and capable quantum computer kind of owns everyone’s digital assets or bitcoin for the public key that they can see,” Pruden said.

The path forward, Pruden said, is to introduce a new signature scheme into Bitcoin that does not rely on the classical math underlying the elliptic-curve digital signature algorithm, or ECDSA, it uses today.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology has standardized post-quantum schemes based on hash functions and lattices, he said, and Bitcoin community discussion has trended toward the hash-based option. BIP-360, proposed last year, laid groundwork for adding a quantum-resistant Taproot output type, and Blockstream has deployed a hash-based signature scheme on its Liquid Network.

“Moving stuff out of just research into production is, I think, actually what we need to focus on,” Pruden said. “L

Bitcoin Reclaims $80K, And $93K Comes Into Focus — Discover The CME Gap Setup
Bitcoin is pushing toward $82,000 as the market tests a resistance level that has capped every recent attempt at higher prices. The recovery from the March lows has been constructive, but the next meaningful move requires breaking through overhead that has so far absorbed every bullish effort. An XWIN Research Japan analysis has identified a structural target above the current price that gives the current test a specific forward context.

Dogecoin slides 4%, bitcoin rally pauses as Iran ceasefire optimism lifts equities
The crypto rally took a pit stop on Thursday while equities kept zooming higher.

Bitcoin traded at $80,945 in Asian hours, down 0.7% over 24 hours but still up 6.9% on the week. Ether ($ETH) slipped 2% to $2,326 and was the major laggard, dropping 4.4% to $0.1106 after last week's run took its 30-day return into the double digits.

$XRP and $BNB held steadier, with $XRP at $1.41 and $BNB up 1.3% to $643. Solana zoomed 6.1% on the week to $88.06.

The pullback came as global stock markets ripped to fresh records on U.S.-Iran ceasefire hopes, with reports indicating the two countries are working on a proposal to end the nearly 10-week conflict.
