Digital Asset Valuation Framework Aims to Bridge Education Gap

Crypto assets have matured faster than traditional frameworks for understanding them.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana are no longer speculative fringe bets but rather assets with distinct economic profiles, real network activity, and growing institutional attention. However, a significant gap exists in digital asset education, particularly among financial advisors.

A survey conducted by 21shares found that 84% of the 350 US financial advisors surveyed consider current digital asset education inadequate.

To address this gap, 21shares has developed a three-step framework for approaching digital asset valuation. The framework starts with classification and applies the right tool to each asset type rather than forcing a single model across a diverse universe.
