someone think that one in three millennials will own cryptocurrency by the end of 2018

I think that its actually showing that cryptocurrencies are nearly on beginner recognition levels. It clearly shows that altcoins may raise to 10x or even 100x levels over time.. Probably altcoin adoptions is lot lower.

The survey looks really good and it does indicate that the interesting in crypto is increasing , however this %8 planning to buy is not necessary a sign of knowledge , we all know that buying crypto now is really easy . I hope that the new comer educate them self about crypto before decide to jump in so they can at least protect them self from scams . We really do not want people to jump in to only exit the very next day .

I still believe that the cryptocurrency market is still stay in the hype of the stage, the application is not too much people enter the reason is simply the investment of cryptocurrency market, I hope in the next blockchain and cryptocurrency can really change the world.

Only 2001 people were surveyed, but still, percentages are quite impressing but still inaccurate.

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.

This is the reason why i strongly believed that cryptocurrencies would be adopted by most of the people.Because more and more people are aware to what this technology can bring to us,total decentralized currency and a lot of things that could better with the u.s of blockchain technology.Lets hope that the SEC would realize how powerful the blockchain is so that it would be much easier to get the technology for those people.

In my opinion, 26Million or 8% of the population is already a large number.
We have to exclude large percentage of the population from the potential owner of cryptco.

It's a lot compared with the age of the cryptocurrency itself. It just like said to the SEC "hey as far as you were trying to ban crypto the new people will come from your country because of that the potential of cryptocurrency itself"

This becomes a proof to the SEC about how crypto can't be banned even with really strict regulation because it was standing with its foot.

8% of the populations are considering to invest in the crypto and that's a huge amount.

If 1 of 3 Millennial own a crypto that's around 12 million American. Its a huge population excluding the generation X that own crypto.
I think America will be the first country to be cryptonized.

As of presents the crypto cannot considered as currency but an assets. But seems the cryptocurrency is already positioning itself to take over the world of currency.
If it gonna raise 10X then it better to hold some altcoins.

I think, the critical mass of users of cryptocurrencies has to be not less than 5% of the population of all developed G8 countries. Then there will be very big shift in introduction of the cryptomarket in economy of the countries. And at the moment, in my opinion, users about 1% of the population of the G8

[rayk]

But maybe more than 20 million of them have bought cryptocurrency just to try it or trade it. There is not 26 million experienced and knowledgable coin holders

[NathanJB]

This statistics is a good indication that cryptocurrency has already reached a certain level in which it can already be considered a mainstream technology. United States of America has a huge population and if this huge population will truly support cryptocurrency, there is no reason why crypto will also not be accepted in some countries. Taking into consideration also the fact that a lot of countries are looking at the US in terms of what is the latest trending. Whatever it is that is trending in the US may possible may imitated by other countries as well.

And of that 26 million #, those are only the ones who disclosed their ownership.
I'm almost certain that there are people who own crypto but don't want to talk about it as they fear having the gov getting involved, so they keep it to themselves.

[auliahr]

I think this growth is happening all over the country in the world, every day newcomers are always growing and they want to get to know crypto. But unfortunately the average of those interested in high profits and want to quickly become rich. Unknowingly they have entered into high risk investments, therefore we have to educate them that this is not only a fortune, but the future of the payments world is in the crypto and blockchain.

if it's only 8% it seems it will still be difficult to make the price rise as there are still a few bitcoin enthusiasts in different stories when enthusiasts in the US state more than 50% will definitely trigger the price increase of all cryptocurrency.

 Let's  look into the figure not in the percentage. The 26Million owned crypto and doing trading still a huge number for the market is enough to fuel the price of crypto. This just in America how about the other part of the globe?

You have a point dude. it could be more higher if other just honest on the survey. Anyway it their prerogative to put themselves on private pertain to crypto. Even I, I would do the same.

[regexlove]

in 2018 people who invest in the crypto currency will be much more than in 2017, because this is a very promising investment although very risky
