66% of people in the world have heard about Crypto only 9% own

[DamCryp]

Some interesting numbers came from an ING Bank survey that revealed some information regarding the level of awareness, ownership and intention to own crypto by the world's population. On intentions to buy in the near future, 16% of the population, said they intended to do it. Regarding ownership numbers were Turkey 18%, Romania 12%, Australia 9% USA 8%.
These numbers show huge room for growth, hopefully retail investors don't come in too late, and are dumped on by the institutional investors.

66% of the world people have heard that encryption is only 9% owned. I feel very good when I read this set of data. Any new things have been recognized, accepted, applied, and cryptocurrency. The potential users are very huge and have potential for development. Now the investment can also get huge profits.

Others are still denying the fact that crypto is about to change the world, it is the future. They are afraid to commit and invest. But we will see in the future what crypto will give to us.

This seems like fake news.  I'm very surprised 66% of the worlds population has head of crypto.  If so that's great news but I'm not buying it.  I do feel like we need a better interface with the blockchain so that mainstream can get on board.  This is too difficult for parts of the population.

because they do not believe this tech. this is new of tech, sometimes they are lack of knowledge and no confidence.

Cryptocurrencies are still at its infancy and will soon get the attention it deserves. We just need to see more projects that actually bring more retail investors. Afterwards, more people will clearly see the benefits and jump in as well.

Wow that's an insane stat however if 9% of the worlds population was invested in Crypto I would think our market cap would be much higher.  200 billion for all those investors?  Doesn't add up.

I think the growth of enthusiasts will continue to grow and develop. awareness to invest in crypto grows and makes everyone interested in investing in crypto.

Well i believe last years its only 1 % of people that own cryptocurrency and now its become 6% i believe its huge grow, and i do wondering what it will be when ETF are approved and wall street start selling cryptocurrency.

That's a great figures where did you search about this can you share with us. As of now, I think only few never heard of crypto ( probably the one whose not fond of internet or people or lack of resources to be in)

Noting that those countries mentioned are not really that big except for US are bound to increase potential to deal with crypto. You're right retail industry can improve the industry by incorporating crypto, hence we need a platform that really support their need Im thinking pundi X but still they are starting and really need to build up first but soon it can be worldwide. Thanks for this helpful details.

The volatility of this industry is too great, so not everyone wants to invest, and many people still don't trust the industry.

I think the SEC is very concerned about the risks involved in crypto currencies because crypto implementation is not yet needed at this time.

Yes, for an ordinary person using crypto currency is still a certain complexity. To do this, the average person needs to learn a lot and many know, otherwise he can lose his money. It just frightens and repels people from crypto-currency. These figures show a small percentage even of people's awareness of the crypto currency. Therefore, it will take a very long time for the crypto currency to enter our life.

Government regulations also play a huge part in this. What the public sees when the government advice them to exercise caution in something is that they automatically assume that it is illegal or prohibited. Some also thinks that it is a scam since many have made fortune in such small time compared to traditional investments.

I think it's doesn't mean that all of 9% population are investors. Some of them are Bounty Hunter which hold few amount of coin. Almost of Bounty hunter didn't hold their coin for long term. They prefer to sell their coin after their coin has been listed on exchange.
Maybe only 5% of 9% population are invested with big and huge amounts of money. As we can see, that 98% money own by 2% of population.

Those numbers seem incredibly high.  Very good news.  I believe they will only rise in the future.  Anyone using CC or cash is slowly getting left behind the crypto revolution.  They are promoting Bitcoin on government tv.  You know it's coming.

It is not visible that will change, while to it there is more than mistrust. Volatility, speculation destroys all the benefits. And I think investors are becoming more difficult to attract, especially in the period of bears.

[Sylvial]

In my opinion, I think quite a number of people have heard about crypto, but not a lot have in-depth knowledge as to what it's all about. Many who have heard are sitting on the fence about it. They feel it's a bubble and can't wait for it to burst, so they say "I told you so.." Some still feel it's some ponzi scheme

[deeofficialx]

That's a good news. Yes, not so high but Bitcoin, and Altcoins, has own time for maturity. Those numbers will soon become bigger and bigger.

[cryptofunn]

these figures will increase every year, as it is now with the Internet. Even in Africa there are crypto-instruments
