Many assets have suffered as a result of the cryptocurrency market turbulence. Only 15% believe their investments have performed better than expected, while 31% say they have performed about as well.

Around 16% of adults in the United States have invested in, traded, or utilized cryptocurrencies. According to the study conducted from July 5 to July 17, the total proportion of US consumers purchasing cryptocurrency hasn’t moved since September 2021, despite increased media awareness.

Those that do invest want a different way to invest (78%), believe it is an excellent way to make money (75%) or believe it is easier to get into than other ways to invest (54%). Almost four out of ten people are more confident in digital assets than in other investments, and a third say being a member of a community is at least a small factor for investing.
