Crypto stocks offer a compelling way for investors to gain exposure to the fast-growing crypto economy. Instead of holding bitcoin or Ethereum directly, you can own shares in the “picks and shovels” companies behind the crypto boom.

But crypto stocks have sold off sharply in recent months as investors have switched into risk-off mode. So how should investors approach these stocks now?

In this hour-long webinar, Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan and Director of Research David Lawant will examine the outlook for crypto equities and share their latest estimates for the sector’s revenue growth and profitability. Their findings? The recent sell-off may present an intriguing entry point for value-oriented investors.

Topics include:

  • Understanding the crypto equities landscape
  • What’s behind recent performance
  • The different types of companies driving crypto’s growth
  • Crypto equities’ correlations to bitcoin and Ethereum
  • Estimating the sector’s future revenue and profitability
