According to coinmarketcap.com, as of April 2021, there were more than 9,000 cryptocurrencies that facilitate peer-to-peer transfers of data and value. Where does this leave the individual who believes in the future of these crypto-assets but can’t figure out how to invest in them? The vast majority of advisors don’t recognize them as an investable asset class; therefore, many are not able to talk about them intelligently. More than 6,700 different cryptocurrencies are traded publicly, according to CoinMarketCap.com. And cryptocurrencies continue to proliferate, raising money through initial coin offerings, or ICOs. The total value of all cryptocurrencies on April 20, 2021, was more than $2.2 trillion, according to CoinMarketCap, and the total value of all bitcoins, the most popular digital currency, was pegged at about $1.2 trillion. So it is slowly coming to a time when your clients will be probably going to be asking about this, if they haven’t already. Some financial advisors have found that being knowledgeable about investing in cryptocurrency is a way to bridge the gap with younger generations of their clients’ families. So to become a trusted advisor you will sooner or later start talking about the major aspects of adding cryptocurrency to a client’s portfolio.
