Hyderabad: Coin Switch, crypto investing and trading platform, has released the Q1 2026 edition of its flagship report, “India’s Crypto Portfolio: How India Invests,” offering insights based on the activity of over 2.5 crore of its investors across the country. The findings point to a clear shift in market maturity.
While investors aged between 26-35 continue to dominate participation at 48 per cent, the 35+ segment emerged as the fastest-growing demographic, led by Gen X and older millennials entering the market.
Unlike younger cohorts who often enter markets early in experimentation phases, Gen X and older millennials typically adopt new financial assets after gaining confidence in their long-term value and regulatory clarity. This shift suggests that crypto in India is moving beyond early adoption into a more mature participation phase, where investors with greater financial experience and capital are entering the market.
“What stands out this quarter is not just who is investing, but how.
