The research group had conducted a survey on 10,000 U.S. citizens, where they found that 43% of men ages 18 to 29 revealed their investment in cryptocurrency. Also, 86% have accepted that they have heard little about cryptocurrencies, which includes they have good knowledge of cryptocurrency. Also, 13% have said that they have never heard about it.
The same Research center had organized a survey in 2015, where they had questioned people regarding Bitcoin. At that time only 1% of the total crowd accepted that they had traded, bought, or used Bitcoin.
The result shows that every third person in ten in America ages 19 to 29 invest in any cryptocurrency through buying, trading in leading cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many others. This survey also depicts that older people are less interested in cryptocurrency.
This survey came after the two prominent cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin and Ether marked their record-breaking all-time high value, and total cryptocurrency market capitalization reached $3 trillion.
