The Internet reported that a Gallup survey found that only 14% of U.S. adults own cryptocurrencies, 60% of respondents said they were not interested in purchasing cryptocurrencies, and only 4% planned to buy them in the near future. The survey also revealed significant demographic differences: Young men and higher-income earners are more likely to hold cryptocurrencies, while women, older people and low-income households are less involved in the field. Although cryptocurrency holdings continue to rise, most Americans still regard it as a high-risk investment, with 64% of U.S. investors believing that cryptocurrencies are "extremely risky."
