- Nexo says 67% of affluent investors own crypto, but integration stays low.
- Security, fees and platform complexity emerge as key barriers to adoption.
- US investors show deepest crypto integration despite lower ownership rates.
High-net-worth investors are increasingly buying crypto, but many are still reluctant to make it a major part of their long-term wealth plans, according to a new Nexo survey.
The report found that 67% of affluent investors across the US, UK and Argentina already own crypto. However, security concerns, high fees and complicated platforms are stopping many from using digital assets for retirement planning or replacing traditional investments.
Nexo published its “Future of Digital Wealth 2026” report on September 23 after surveying 1,000 affluent investors. Its new Crypto Integration Index, which measures how deeply crypto is incorporated into investors’ finances, produced an average score of 4.83 out of 10.
Ownership outpaces deeper integration
Nexo said a score near the survey average of 4.83 represents a small, short-horizon crypto position outside retirement planning.
