Poll: 75% of Americans Still Interested in Cryptocurrencies

A majority of Americans (75% of respondents) believe in digital assets to some extent, despite the collapse of FTX. This follows from the Paxos survey.

About 72% were somewhat concerned or not at all concerned about volatility in the digital-asset market in 2023. More than half (52%) remain interested in crypto investments.

About 38% of respondents would prefer to receive crypto assets as rewards under a credit card or loyalty program, while 34% see them as a means to transfer money to friends or family.

The survey, conducted January 5-6, included 5,000 adult respondents with a household income above $50,000 per year who had bought cryptocurrency in the last three years.

Around a third of them bought digital assets for the first time in the last 12 months.

In February 2023, Morning Consult and Coinbase, in a joint study found that 20% of adults in the United States (more than 50 million people) own crypto assets.
