According to PANews, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated in a report on Monday that as investors expect easier access to the digital asset space, funds tracking a basket of cryptocurrencies may become very popular next year. He predicts that by 2026, cryptocurrency index funds will become a hot topic in the investment market.
Hougan pointed out that the cryptocurrency market is becoming increasingly complex, with a multiplication of application scenarios. Although the market has growth potential, it is difficult to predict which tokens will perform well. He believes that holding funds that track the overall market trend is an 'excellent starting point for investment,' but it is not suitable for all investors.
Even with extensive experience, Hougan cannot confidently determine which chain will win. His strategy is to buy market-cap-weighted cryptocurrency index funds. He added that the importance of cryptocurrency will far exceed today in ten years, and the market size may grow up to 20 times.
