Asset class classification involves categorizing financial instruments into distinct groups based on shared characteristics. This systematic arrangement helps investors and regulators understand the nature of various holdings. For digital assets, classification determines regulatory oversight, tax treatment, and how they integrate into broader financial markets. Such categorization is essential for assessing market trends and risk profiles.
