[DeadCoin]

A recent study on Americans and cryptocurrencies, commissioned by Finder.com in February, shows that 8 percent, or around 26 mln, of Americans have purchased cryptocurrency.

Finder’s survey was answered by 2,001 Americans adults using Pureprofile, a site that gives cash rewards to users that participate in its surveys.

The survey found that out of the 92.05 percent of Americans that have not purchased crypto, almost 8 percent reported that they are planning on doing so in the future. According to the survey, men are more than double as likely as women to own cryptocurrency -- 11.86 percent of all men to 4.27 percent of all women -- as well as more likely to own more crypto in terms of dollar value.

Cryptocurrencies are disproportionately owned more by millenials as opposed to baby boomers--17.2 percent of millenials and 2.24 percent of baby boomers reported having crypto holdings.

How it would be if 90% citizens from all over the country hold crypto currencies?

What is not reported is this:

This research is from a survey of 2,001 US adults commissioned by finder.com and conducted by Pureprofile in February 2018.

The survey is a paid online survey. The people that participate are not representative of the "American population". People doing paid online surveys are much more likely to own cryptocurrencies than the average American.
