RIAs See Rising Opportunities in Crypto butWant Better Guardrails
Echo45 founder Jon Henderson was featured in Financial Advisor IQ discussing the continued rise in cryptocurrency interest among investors and the importance of thoughtful risk management. As more clients explore exposure to Bitcoin and Ethereum through exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and professionally managed accounts, Jon emphasized the risks associated with self-custody and unstructured crypto investing. He noted that many of the largest losses in digital assets stem from fraud, security mistakes, or improper handling — not just market volatility.
In the article, Jon explains how Echo45 helps clients integrate crypto into diversified portfolios using fiduciary oversight, disciplined allocation strategies, and institutional-grade custody solutions. While interest in digital assets continues to grow, he stresses the need for comprehensive legislation and clear regulatory frameworks to support long-term stability. For investors considering crypto exposure, the key is balancing opportunity with structure, transparency, and risk control.
