A 20x Future? Will 2026 Be the Year of Crypto Index Funds? Bitwise Says ‘Buy the Market’

“Guessing the winner can lead you astray—buy the market and grow the smart way.”

According to cryptocurrency experts, 2026 will be a significant turning point for multi-asset investing, and Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise, thinks that cryptocurrency index funds will spearhead the next major expansion.

A 20x Future? Will 2026 Be the Year of Crypto Index Funds? Bitwise Says ‘Buy the Market’

Hougan cautioned in a recent market report that investors cannot safely choose specific tokens since the cryptocurrency market is growing “too large, too fast, and too unpredictably.” 

Rather, he claims that the best course of action for the upcoming year is straightforward, effective, and becoming more and more well-liked: “Buy the market.”

According to Professor Hougan, a number of variables, such as regulations, technological advancements, changes in the macroeconomy, and even good fortune, will determine the future of cryptocurrency. 

He suggests market-cap-weighted cryptocurrency index funds as the safest method to obtain wide exposure due to this uncertainty. Similar to the S&P 500, these funds follow the leading cryptocurrencies based on market size.

Although there are currently multi-crypto ETFs in the US, inflows are still limited because the majority of them are still significantly biased towards Bitcoin, which accounts for around 60% of the market. 

But as more investors seek out straightforward, varied ways to take advantage of cryptocurrency’s long-term potential, Bitwise anticipates a big increase in demand in 2026.

According to Hougan, the cryptocurrency market may expand up to 20 times over the course of the next ten years. He claims that now is the moment to get ready since tokenisation is gaining political backing, particularly in light of recent remarks made by SEC Chair Paul Atkins.
