The Future of Financial Advice in a Crypto-Enabled World

As crypto and digital assets become more integrated into financial planning, one thing is clear: investors will still need human advisors. Even with the rise of robo-advisors and automation, navigating crypto requires judgment, experience, and strategic thinking that technology alone can’t replicate.

Those new to crypto need guidance to:

  • Determine appropriate allocations that fit their goals and risk tolerance
  • Choose secure custody solutions and understand wallet management
  • Navigate tax, regulatory, and security considerations

But the opportunity for advisors goes far beyond traditional planning. DeFi and blockchain are empowering advisors to become, in essence, their own mini–Goldman Sachs.

Advisors who understand this space can:

  • Send and receive funds across borders with minimal transaction costs
  • Stake crypto assets to generate yield
  • Earn returns through liquidity pools
  • Manage digital assets across multiple wallets and protocols

A robo-advisor can’t yet replicate this. But a skilled financial advisor—adaptable, informed, and tech-savvy—can lead clients confidently into the new era of digital wealth.

The role of the advisor isn’t disappearing. It’s evolving.
