[Bitwise: 15 Institutions Did Not Reduce Holdings During Nearly 50% Market Decline, Some Increased Positions] Odaily Planet Daily reports that cryptocurrency asset management company Bitwise conducted interviews with 15 large institutions, revealing that during the approximately 50% decline in the crypto market from October 2025 to April 2026, none of the surveyed institutions reduced their allocations, and some even increased their positions. Some respondents who had not yet allocated to crypto assets have entered advanced due diligence stages, with several sovereign wealth funds evaluating significant allocations. One sovereign investor noted that establishing the legal and regulatory infrastructure required for allocation could take more than a year. The crypto asset allocations of the surveyed institutions range from 0.5% to 13% of investable assets, with most between 1% and 2%. All institutions with existing positions hold Bitcoin, which is typically their first, largest, and longest-held crypto asset position. (Bitcoin.com News)
