Investor De-Risking

Definition

Investor de-risking refers to actions taken by investors to reduce their exposure to potential financial losses. In digital asset markets, this might involve selling volatile cryptocurrencies, reallocating capital to more stable assets, or withdrawing funds from platforms perceived as insecure. These actions are often prompted by market downturns, regulatory uncertainty, or concerns about specific project viability. De-risking reflects a shift towards capital preservation.
