According to a recent survey conducted in the UK, about 20% of rich young people (born between 1981 and 1996 with at least £25,000 in investable assets) hold BTC or other digital currency.
The proportion of British holding digital assets, which accounts for about 3% total population, shows that the proportion of young people holding digital assets is much higher than the whole national average. If invest-able assets were raised from 25,000 to 75,000, the proportion of eligible young people investing in digital assets would be increased from 20% to 29%.
From this survey, we can easily conclude that the younger and richer adults in the UK are, the higher the proportion of digital assets they hold, indicating that the interest of younger generation of middle-class and rich people in digital money is becoming stronger and stronger.
The United States also did a similar survey earlier, and it showed that 11% of the US population holds BTC, and the population aged from 18 to 34 has an absolute advantage. BTC is so widely recognized in the United States that 89% of the country’s population has heard about cryptocurrencies more or less.
Similar to British conclusion, in the United States wealthy young people have a higher interest and confidence in digital currency in comparison to other social groups. In the survey, 27% of respondents born after 1997 said they would try to buy digital currency within six months.
Whether in the UK or the US, participants buy digital money mainly through exchanges. Exchanges offer transparent prices, real-time updates and diversified choices. As long as they can ensure security and fairness and protect the interests and privacy of investors, they will bring great convenience and opportunities to more and more participants.
However, since the beginning of the history of crypto trading, many exchanges have been exposed to hacker intrusion and user information leakage. It happens every year. Due to the anonymity and convenience of digital currency, money laundering and terrorist financing activities have been developed in recent years. Some of the security measures are not properly taken. Moreover, we can observe the lack of relevant technologies which could increase the level of protection.
