A recent study compiled by two professors (2014) at the University of Kentucky pinpoints two probable user groups, one of which may dismay Bitcoin supporters.  Some of the long-standing Bitcoin evangelists/supporters may have heard of this study, but the retorts from the author in this article is refreshing after reading through the original report.

When the internet started back in the days, we had these same labels... apart from the speculators, we were computer programmers, Libertarians, and criminals. Look at where we are now, and decide for

yourself if these statements would once again be proven wrong in the future.

You cannot label Bitcoin users based on Google search statistics for words like “Free Market,” and “Make Money” and come to that conclusion.... and they call themselves proffessors?

I have no criminal record, and I am a Bitcoin user...  ... I might be slighty Libertarian on some of my opinions.
