What’s new? Morning Consult, an analyst firm, has conducted a survey that showed that a fifth of US adults (around 40 million people) are considering buying bitcoins. The recent cryptocurrency crash has not dampened people’s desire to invest, they are willing to buy “on the fall.”
What else did the survey show? Millennials remain the most cryptocurrency-friendly demographic group, with nearly a third of them willing to buy bitcoins. The respondents whose annual income exceeds $100 000 are more often to invest in the main cryptocurrency than the average American.
70% of bitcoin holders claim their main goal is to earn money. Most cryptocurrency holders expect BTC to return to $60 000 within six months. The survey also showed that crypto investors have a greater propensity to take risks.
