The global financial industry experiences continual AI impact through which cryptocurrency investors select a measured approach toward employing AI for their investment portfolios.A recent survey conducted by CoinGecko between February 20 and March 10, 2025, highlights how crypto users are divided over how much control they’re willing to give to AI—though many are already allowing AI to manage a significant portion of their assets.
Growing Trust in AI for Asset Management
The survey results demonstrated that 36% of participants showed willingness for AI to manage more than 50% of their cryptocurrency assets. Out of the surveyed group 14.5% showed willingness for AI to oversee their complete crypto assets. Market sentiment indicates increasing trust in AI platforms for helping people make suitable asset allocation decisions within constantly changing crypto markets.
A majority of 87.1% from all respondents indicated they were content with AI managing 10% or more of their investment portfolios. A minority of 12.9% maintained their preference for not using AI systems to manage their portfolios although most participants showed comfort with AI management.
Mixed Views on AI’s Edge in Trading
The number of investors adopting AI is rising yet some maintain AI does not exceed human capabilities in performance. According to surveyed investors AI trading systems possess better abilities than human traders based on expectation rates reaching 49% and similar capability expectations for AI in long-term investing at 46.6%. The survey results showed that conservative opinions prevailed over optimistic views because 29.3% people believed AI would succeed in trading occasionally while 28.3% others thought the same about investing.
The survey demonstrated doubting attitudes with AI’s trading capabilities since 22% of participants did not believe it could surpass humans while 25.1% believed the same about investment outcomes. Experimentation exists but there is still no complete confidence established.
AI in Crypto: Trusted Advisor, Not Sole Controller
The research subjects showed positive acceptance for portfolio management through AI systems yet a cautious approach to allowing AI access to their cryptocurrency account wallets. The survey showed that 37.5% of participants stood against the idea yet 27.9% neither supported nor opposed it. Security stands as the main concern since AI tools are viewed as decision-making assets.
These research results align with changes in the crypto market where both short-term speculators and long-term investors choose to mix new strategies with risk management best practices. People are increasingly interested in AI support yet they resist giving complete authority to the system due to the well-known market unpredictability.
