Only 4% Brits Have Bought Bitcoins While 93% Know About It, Survey Reveals
YouGov, an international internet-based, market research, data analytics firm, which deals with the global public opinion, recently carried out a survey to figure out the popularity and reach of Bitcoins amongst citizens in the United Kingdom. The firm, which is headquartered in the UK, also carries out operations in Europe, North America, the Middle East and the Asia Pacific.
The survey concluded that about 93% of Brits had heard about Bitcoins even though only 4% had actually gone on to invest in the same. It also reveals that only these 4% of the data set claimed to know and understand Bitcoins ‘very well’ and one in five people were of the opinion that crypto should have an increased usage, akin to cards of cash in the near future.
The statistics also say that only 1% of women had bought BTC, as opposed to 6% of men and that one in eleven 18-24 year olds, (9%) had bought Bitcoins while only one in hundred 55+ people (1%) had done the same.
