Cybersecurity firm Kaspersky released a survey revealing that only 10% of global consumers “fully understand how cryptocurrencies work.

I see conflicting terms here - "world population" and "global consumers".  Still, I don't believe the numbers in this report.  Only 800 million people "fully understand" how crypto currency works?

The survey, titled “The Kaspersky Cryptocurrency Report 2019,” was carried out in October and November 2018, with a total of 13,434 respondents in 22 countries

Thousands responded, and I bet most that did were interested in the topic.   But it's a hardly a representation of either "world population" or "global consumers".
