Title: global percentage of investing Cryptocurrency?
Post by: tonmoycrypto on January 24, 2018, 12:08:50 PM
So does anyone know the global percentage of the people investing Cryptocurrency? I'm guessing most people who have invested in any crypto have had bitcoin at some point.

i guess 80% of people heard of it, 0.01 percentage of people invest with cryptocurrency directly and indirectly.

I think I heard somewhere that the total percentage is close to 1% instead of 0.1%. But excuse me if I'm wrong. I didn't do any research on this.

I'm pretty sure it's impossible to know the exact or atleast an accurate percentage of people invested in cryptocurrency due to most if not all cryptocurrencies being anonymous and pseudo anonymous, hence there's really no way to have accurate data. We can probably collect data from crypto exchange registrations, but that wouldn't be accurate enough in my opinion.

Whatever the percentage is, it has probably doubled or tripled in the last few months. Still if we are going into specifics then I would probably guess below 1%. Given the fact that a majority of population is in 3rd world countries with no access to even internet it's obvious this number isn't going to be high. But with current mainstream media everyone with a TV or newspaper probably knows about cryptos but out of them even less people use it.

Less than 100 wallets hold over 98% of all bitcoins.

Those 100 wallets controlled by around 10 smart dudes.
Source? Proof?

You're all in one big worthless manipulated Ponzi scam.
If you're calling bitcoin a Ponzi scam/scheme, then you obviously don't even know what a ponzi scheme is.

A bit of profanity below..


Let me school you a bit, as you obviously don't know what you're talking about: A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investing scam promising high rates of return with little risk to investors -source (https://www.investopedia.com/terms/p/ponzischeme.asp). Since when did bitcoin actually promise profits? You dumb fuck. God I'm triggered.

I got in the great con at $5 and got out around $20k
Yeah sure, you got in at one of the best times and got out at the best time as well. I 100% believe you.   /s

LOL. If these guy have already got in at $5 he would be here in this forum anymore and I'm sure when the price had reached at $200 he had already sold all of it. Anyway, there's no exact answer to the question of OP but I'd guess all of who have invested on alts have at least remaining 20% in bitcoin.

So 10 investors and 40 million marks or suckers.

Bitcoin in the future is considered the greatest scam ever.

Lol

You're all in one big worthless manipulated Ponzi scam.

The coins are all about to implode.

Haha

40 million fools who thought they were investors.

Lol

I got in the great con at $5 and got out around $20k

This crap coin will be $5k any day.

When banks close every exchanges account it is all worthless.

The banks are aware now it's a ponzi and the end is nigh.

Seems like you don't like Bitcoin. Which coins do you consider to be worthwhile keeping?

Why are these whales so greedy that they are not taking their profit and expect the small investors to pump in more and more and more money so they can make an even bigger profit..   I am going off the idea of Bitcoin when I hear 10 investors control the whole thing.  Not sure if I will buy any more.  Only have a very small amount now.

If you believe on this kind of FUDs its your choice. But please do your own research first before accepting what others are saying. Its not true because there's no hard evidence to prove that there are only few people who owns a big percentage of the bitcoin.

There is no way to find out what % of people have invested in crypto but I don't think that % is less than 1% because still majority of investor either don't know about crypto or don't want to take high risk associated with high price volatility.

Yes to invest in crypto we need to buy Bitcoin first and than to cash out those alt we have to convert it to Bitcoin first because most of the alts are traded only against Bitcoin.

I think of the same thing, majority of the population heard it but only very little percentage of the people use and invest it.
