Neutral strategy funds account for less than half of all funds on Binance's Capital Connect platform yet hold 92.1% of total assets under management, according to a report by Binance Research released as of Oct. 31. Directional strategy funds represent 44.3% of fund count but only 6.7% of AUM, with average allocation sizes for neutral strategies running approximately 11 times larger than directional ones. Despite Bitcoin declining 7.2% in October, directional funds on the platform posted an average return of 1.9%, and investor participation rebounded to 52 participants. All surveyed allocators cited verified exchange data as valuable for due diligence, with 80% prioritizing asset security above other factors. Binance Research noted that institutional capital has entered crypto markets at scale but flows predominantly into passive products such as ETFs, leaving a persistent gap in channels for discovering and evaluating active fund managers.
