Institutional interest in crypto assets is on the rise as the blockchain-powered currencies sprint to new highs and lows frequently. The volatility underlying these assets aside, investors are now keeping a close track of the rapid developments in the space. Cryptos are a different asset class considering they are not listed on any particular stock market or form a part of any particular stock index. In contrast to listed shares and debt instruments, crypto assets can be traded over dedicated crypto exchange platforms that function without any geographical borders or regulatory oversight.
