Crypto Users Divided on AI’s Role in Portfolio Management, CoinGecko Survey Reveals

A recent CoinGecko survey highlights a split in crypto users’ confidence in artificial intelligence for trading and investment decisions. Conducted between February 20 and March 10, 2025, the anonymous poll found that roughly half of the 2,632 participants believe AI agents will outperform humans in crypto markets most of the time.

The data reveals a generational divide in market experience, with 53% of respondents in their first market cycle and only 13% claiming veteran status with eight or more years in crypto. Long-term investors constituted 51% of participants, while short-term traders made up 26%.

Market participants remain polarized about AI’s current capabilities, with 50% maintaining that human judgment still holds the advantage in cryptocurrency markets. The findings suggest the crypto community is actively grappling with automation’s expanding role in financial decision-making.
