Survey Finds 61.5% of Bank Respondents Expect Blockchain to Become Standard

A survey by zerohash and Ava Labs found that 61.5% of bank respondents expect blockchain to become standard in their businesses within two years. Another 15.4% said it was already standard. The Onchain Readiness Report drew 162 completed online responses from executives and institutional operators at banks, brokerages, payments and fintech firms, asset managers and crypto-native companies. Responses were collected in August and September 2026. The results are directional rather than representative of the banking sector.
