India’s high-net-worth individuals are increasingly reallocating capital into cryptocurrencies as Bitcoin’s performance outpaces traditional investments.
With BTC up over 90% this year and trading above $120,000, digital assets are attracting serious attention from family offices and institutional players.
Platforms like Mudrex and CoinDCX report HNI trading volume spikes of 25–30% in July. Around 3,500 elite investors now account for nearly half of CoinDCX’s trading activity, favoring assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP.
According to CoinSwitch’s Ashish Singhal, HNIs are no longer asking “why crypto?” but “where to deploy capital.”
Retail investors are also flooding back in. CoinSwitch’s daily activity tripled, CoinDCX’s volume jumped 40%, and Mudrex saw a 200% rise in futures trading—driven largely by meme coins and blue-chip tokens.
Despite surging activity, high taxes and regulatory uncertainty continue to hinder wider adoption. Still, investor momentum remains strong: between July 10–15, Indian traders poured up to $200 million into crypto, with analysts projecting Bitcoin could reach $185K by year-end.
