Coinbase released its Q4 "State of the Crypto Markets Report," revealing that a survey of 4,350 U.S. adults found that younger investors are rewriting investment rules. The report indicates that younger investors say 25% of their portfolios are invested in non-traditional assets such as cryptocurrencies, derivatives, NFTs, and other emerging products—three times the proportion of older investors, who allocate only 8% of their portfolios to non-traditional assets. Furthermore, 45% of younger investors say they already hold cryptocurrencies, compared to only 18% of older investors. Additionally, nearly half (47%) of younger investors expressed a desire to acquire new crypto assets before they enter the mainstream market, compared to only 16% of older investors.
