Bitcoin’s share of the global crypto market rose to 58.2%, while BTC emerged as the most-held digital asset across every major Indian city and demographic cohort on CoinDCX. At the same time, meme tokens lost prominence, accounting for just 12.17% of trading volume, compared with 32.87% for Layer-1 assets, signalling a clear preference for utility-driven investments, according to the H1 2026 Investor Report by CoinDCX.
The report reveals a significant evolution in investor behaviour, with Indian crypto participants increasingly favouring long-term accumulation, large-cap digital assets, and disciplined portfolio construction over speculative trading.
