Grayscale Survey: 41% of Voters Exploring Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies Amidst Dollar Depreciation and Political Strains
Increased interest in Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrency among US voters can be attributed to geopolitical and economic uncertainties, according to a recent survey conducted by Harris Poll on behalf of Grayscale. The survey, which included 1,768 adults in the US, took place between April 30th and May 2nd, following a previous survey conducted between November 27th and 29th. Harris Poll ensured that the data points were weighted to reflect the country’s population. Grayscale reported that the survey results indicated a rise in crypto interest. The survey found that almost one-third of the respondents have become more open to learning about and investing in crypto since the beginning of 2024. Additionally, 23% of respondents now view crypto as a good long-term investment opportunity, compared to 19% in November, and 47% expect to include crypto in their investment portfolios. The survey also revealed that inflation is a significant concern for voters, with 28% considering it the top issue in the election. Grayscale highlighted the potential value of assets like Bitcoin, which have a transparent and limited supply.
