Ex-Treasury chief warns of US bond crash, calls for contingency plan

Japan's Institutional Crypto Sentiment Hits New Highs in 2026



Nomura Holdings and its digital asset subsidiary Laser Digital have published their 2026 Institutional Investor Survey on Digital Asset Investment Trends, revealing a measurable shift in how Japanese institutional investors view crypto assets.

—

The survey, released on April 16, captures responses from 518 investment professionals across institutional investors, family offices, and public-interest organizations in Japan.

The findings point to growing confidence in digital assets as a legitimate portfolio component, with sentiment improving across nearly every metric compared to the previous survey conducted in June 2024.

Positive Sentiment on the Rise

31% of respondents described their outlook on crypto assets over the next year as positive — up 6 percentage points from 25% in the 2024 survey. At the same time, the share of respondents holding a negative view fell to 18%, down 5 points from 23%. The remaining 51% maintained a neutral stance.

The survey also found a strong correlation between knowledge and optimism: 58% of respondents who self-identified as having high crypto knowledge held a positive view, suggesting that deeper familiarity with the asset class tends to improve perception.

Diversification Remains the Top Driver

65% of respondents said they view crypto assets as an opportunity to diversify their portfolios alongside traditional holdings like cash, stocks, bonds, and commodities — up 3 percentage points from 62% in 2024.

Diversification was cited as the primary reason for planned crypto investment, with respondents also highlighting crypto's low correlation with other asset classes.

Among those considering investing in crypto over the next three years, 79% said they have concrete plans to invest. Of these, 60% expect to allocate bet

PEPE Price Leads Meme Coin Surge as Capital Rotates to Risk Assets

Pepe coin, the frog-themed meme cryptocurrency jumped over 8% during Thursday’s U.S. market hours to hit $0.000004 high. This upswing follows the broader recovery in the meme coin market as capital rotates to higher-risk assets, supported by stable market sentiment. However, a stagnant trend in $PEPE’s open interest indicator suggests a lack of speculative force in the market. Can $PEPE price manage to reclaim the $0.000005 barrier?

Meme Coin Market Climbs 12% Amid Risk-On Sentiment Shift

In the last 24-hours, the meme coin sector witnessed a significant surge of over 12% to reach a market cap of $39.8 billion, according to Coingecko data. The buying pressure followed a sudden capital rotation to these volatile assets, as the escalation of the middle-east war has triggered a risk on sentiment.

Hopes for an extended U.S.–Iran ceasefire has stabilized markets, with Bitcoin reclaiming the $75,000 mark. The Fear and Greed Index of the cryptocurrency was at 56 as of April 16, 2026, which is squarely in the neutral zone. It is a level of equilibrium in the market sentiment and investors are not really scared or greedy.

Meme coins saw noticeable price increases during the day. $PEPE price climbed 9% to $0.000004, leading the segment. DOGEgained 3.07%, reaching $0.09601, while SHIB rose 3.41% to $0.00000606. These stable conditions showed positive price action in the meme sector in general.

However, the Pepe Open Interest (OI), projecting the outstanding value of outstanding futures and options contracts, averages around $194 million on Thursday. According to coinglass, the OI value has remained stagnant since early February, indicating a wait-and-see approach from institutions and traders. It suggests that while existing positions aren’t being aggressively closed, no significant “new money” is ente
