I was about to bash you for asking an incredibly stupid poll here on the forums but i was sorely mistaken when i saw the data you provided.
Thank you for sharing this survey. It's really interesting to see that more than half of the world is still uninformed about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Can you imagine where we all would be once adoption rates starting growing beyond 50%?

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

Interesting information then.It means that cryptocurrency is widely introduced and accepted from some other countries.It means that cryptocurrency is popular already and widely used by people.Well time will come that the world will be aware of cryptocurrency and they will adapt on it.

It's a survey conducted by ING Bank and the respondents are from Europe, The U.S.A, and Austalia (15 countries in total ~15,000 respondents)
The results are not bad for the reputation of cryptocurrency. I mean, look, in Europe, 66% have heard of the technology, 25% indicated they expect to own cryptocurrency, 35% in Europe agree Bitcoin is the future of spending online.
To me, cryptocurrency is more mainstream than what we can think and hear. Sure, it's not yet in each house but it isn't bad as of now
-snip-
The numbers I find very interesting and from my personal experience i can say that they are quite suitable. If already about 66% of people in europe heard about crypto, i would like to get to know the numbers from asia or the whole world. I think it's because of the last hype from the end of 2017, early 2018, when Bitcoin and altcoins also got a lot of attention in the mainstream media. I can imagine that the numbers will rise in the next few years and we will soon see 99% in europe.  |

In my country this survey would be looking completely different, there are so many advertisements last days about cryptocurrencies blockchain and all those companies providing their services, so I can thing that almost everybody in my country is knowing.
Its good when people know what cryptocurrency and blockchain really are, but to be honest I don't think that is enough. What is more important is the number of people that are using crypto, and not only in your country. Number of users needs to grow, and if people know what blockchain truly is and are not using it, everything will fade away eventually... |

Good research. It seems that more people know about the cryptocurrency than we can imagine. 66% of people have heard of the cryptocurrency in Europe. It's a lot. Thanks to the Internet, social networks we have access to any information.

It seems like there are still a lot of people who doesnt want to adapt cryptocurrency. And there are more people who doesnt want to change on how they make transactions than those who does. Although, this is still a progress compared to the percentage before. People are being familiar with crypto. Little by little people will embrace it.

It's great to see the popularity of crypto is rising, but a bit sad to see that not many people owning crypto, and I believe most of the people want crypto because of the price that keep on rising, but I still happened to see the data, with increasing popularity there will be more developments for crypto in the future
Indeed, almost everyone that possess crypto keep it because of price rising. In other words, for them crypto is an asset and not currency. Which is sad indeed, but that will continue as such until crypto becomes as usable as fiat currencies. But that I don't expect to happen soon. Also with increase of crypto users, everythiny becomes better. Yeah more people are getting to know about crypto. Mostly are impressed with it because it is helping everyone. We all know that basic necessity of humans are fulfilled with money and everyone here is looking for different ways to earn men. So this basic necessity is just endorsed by bitcoin and other crypto, so the response was definite from people. Good luck to all those who are on stake. |

I think that is great that majority of people from Europe recognize and are aware of cryptocurrency. Once mass adaptation and awareness about crypto happens there will be more demand, which means the price can even surpass the recent ATH of all the cryptocurrency price.

This is interesting information. Thanks for sharing. I did not know previously that so many people have heard of crypto currency, not sure how many have bought crypto currency though. I believe more and more people will be involved in the crypto world.

Wow this is a very interesting survey, but what really puzzled me is why Belgian people seem to ignore that cryptocurrencies exist. Did they make the survey only inside the European Union Parliament? |

The thing is that the media jumps on Bitcoin every time it goes through a bull run, so it's impossible for quite a large number of people to not know about crypto. It was like that in 2013 and has been initiated last year as well. The difference is that while people back then believed crypto to be a scam or a scheme and ignored it for that reason, they found out last year that they missed the opportunity of their life. It made them realize that crypto is here to stay, and exactly the same will happen with the next generation of people. They need that *I missed the boat* moment to realize that crypto is a real thing. |

Bitcoin and crypto in general had given people new opportunity for improving their lives and as you said to earn more money, and that is one more thing that helped the hype from the last year. But people should understand that there is more to crypto than simple money earning. But I guess that money earning will be primary thing for long time, or at least until bitcoin becomes true currency. |

More and more nations and organizations around the world are adopting and seriously studying Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. I believe these things will change the way we look at the community for cryptocurrency and the market will have a stronger place. |

Not every people heard about cryptocurrency, those people who are not aware about how the technology is growing today does not know anything about cryptocurrency. |

The information here is pretty descriptive. Crypto usage and investment increase in europe but new people scare of the market because of crashing btc all day. This shows a positive attitude of our public towards this revolutionary technology and future money system.

this data shows that many people have heard about cryptocurrency which is normal bcoz many time news sites published it . also it shows that only 5-10% people own crypto as of now and many of new people want to invest in crypto . for this they are preferring specialist website as per data , it means we need to educate people more about cryptocurrency to convince them . they also seeking for right entry point of bitcoin .
entire data is favorable for crypto market only need is to spread more words about it , we should discuss it with other people so that they know why it is the future .
It shows that not so many people know about cryptocurrency. Main part of them who heard about it, don't use it and don't want to use it. |

By looking at the differences between answers of European countries, it seems like the poorer countries tend to be more positive towards Bitcoin. This can be explained by poorer people viewing Bitcoin investment as their ticket out of poverty, or because they blame banks and corrupt politicians for their economic problems and they think that economy based on Bitcoin would be better for them. I think Europe, especially eastern parts will be a place where most Bitcoin adoption will occur in the next years.
