Japan’s institutional investors are increasingly looking to diversify their investment portfolios by entering the cryptocurrency market. According to a recent survey conducted by Nomura Securities, 54% of these investors plan to invest in cryptocurrencies within the next three years. 
This growing interest in digital assets is primarily driven by the need to fight against inflation. The introduction of a cryptocurrency ETF in Japan could further invigorate the market, making it more active and attractive to institutional investors.
