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

Bitcoin liquidation cluster builds around $70.7k and $78k as leverage creeps back

Coinglass flags $1.64b in $BTC longs at risk below $70,721 and $1.25b in shorts above $78,068 as Bitcoin grinds in a tightly leveraged $70k–$78k range.

According to Coinglass, if Bitcoin ($BTC) falls below $70,721, the cumulative long liquidation intensity on major centralized exchanges (CEXs) climbs to roughly $1.644 billion. Conversely, if $BTC breaks above $78,068, the platform estimates cumulative short liquidations of about $1.25 billion, underscoring how tightly clustered leverage has become around the current range.

At 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time on April 14, the price of Bitcoin stood near $74,315, up from about $71,189 a day earlier but still roughly $10,250 lower than a year ago, illustrating how volatility persists even as $BTC trades in the mid‑$70,000s. Prediction markets on Polymarket currently assign roughly a 71% chance that Bitcoin will settle between $74,000 and $76,000 on April 16, with the $72,000 to $74,000 band priced at about 22%, reflecting expectations that $BTC will stay pinned near the middle of the liquidation corridor in the short term.

$BTC leverage builds into tight range

The liquidation bands highlighted by Coinglass suggest that a clean break below $70,721 or above $78,068 could trigger forced selling or buying, amplifying moves as exchanges close out underwater futures positions. In practice, that means spot moves near those levels risk cascading into hundreds of millions of dollars in additional flow as over‑leveraged longs or shorts are flushed.

Recent crypto.news coverage of Bitcoin’s range‑bound trading and liquidity build‑up has pointed to a similar setup, with $BTC grinding sideways while leverage and open interest quietly rise. In another crypto.news story on Brazil’s B3 exchange and its tokenized real‑world asset and stablecoin
