In 2025, the top 10 global hedge funds, including Bridgewater and Millennium, allocate 8% of their $1 trillion AUM to crypto, totaling $80 billion, driven by Bitcoin’s $180,000 peak, per Funds Society. Bitcoin ETFs, with $40 billion in inflows, per Investing.com, and Ethereum ETFs ($2.2 billion) dominate 70% of allocations. DeFi tokens like AAVE and UNI, yielding 5%, attract 20%, while Solana’s $173 million ecosystem funding draws 10%. Regulatory clarity under Trump’s administration, per Lexology, boosts confidence, though 30% of funds hedge with stablecoins like USDC. Allocations may rise to 10% by 2026 if Bitcoin hits $200,000, per Bernstein, but a 20% market correction could cut exposure to 5%.
