The long-awaited crypto winter may be in full swing, but boardrooms are in back-to-school mode when it comes to cryptocurrencies and other types of digital assets, according to research.

A poll of more than 200 corporate directors has found that while companies still have a considerable knowledge gap, 95% of boards are actively seeking to educate themselves on digital assets. Half of the respondents were from companies with a market cap of more than $2bn, with 60% coming from the US.
