1M Aussies vil indtaste krypto i løbet af de efterfølgende 12 måneder — Swyftx undersøgelse

Approximately a million Australians will buy cryptocurrency for the primary time over the subsequent 12 months — bringing complete crypto possession within the nation to over 5 million — based on a newly launched survey.

Fundene kom from the second Annual Australian Crypto Survey by Australian crypto change Swyftx, which was performed by analysis agency YouGov.

The survey questioned 2,609 Australians over 18 years of age in early July, with 548 of the survey pattern recognized as present holders of cryptocurrency.

The report acknowledged that regardless of the present “Crypto Winter” which has seen roughly $2 trillion in belongings wiped from the digital belongings market over the course of the final yr, Australian crypto possession has grown 4% year-on-year, reaching 21% in 2022.

According to the report, this determine is about to extend by one other a million new crypto homeowners in 2023, whereas a minimum of one-quarter of Australians are planning to purchase crypto over the subsequent 12 months, with Millenials, Gen Zers, Aussie mother and father, and people in full-time work more than likely to purchase. 

This discovering is broadly in keeping with seneste data fra en bitcoin-processor suggesting the crypto winter isn’t holding again widespread adoption and feedback from crypto change CoinJar’s head of content material Luke Ryan claiming that sports activities sponsorship is hjælper med at legitimere krypto i Australien.

Commenting on the bullish figures for crypto adoption and possession, Swyftx’s Head of Strategic Partnerships, Tommy Honan informed Cointelegraph: 

"På basis af de nuværende vækstforløb i brugen af ​​digitale aktiver forventer vi, at halvdelen af ​​de voksne under 50 år i Australien vil eje eller have ejet krypto inden for de næste et til to år."

However, Honan stated there have been additionally lots of variables that make forecasting adoption “fiendishly difficult,” including: 

"Forventningen er, at vi vil se krypto flytte ind i det regulerede rum næste år, og alt andet lige ville du forvente, at det vil udløse vækst i adoptionen, men det er ikke givet."

Honan stated the speed of adoption might sluggish over the subsequent 12 months earlier than recovering once more as market situations enhance.

"Bjørnemarkedet har slået selvtilliden […] Tillid kan tage trapperne op og elevatorerne ned, så vi bliver nødt til at vente og se, hvor hurtigt markedet tager at stabilisere sig," bemærkede han. 

Ifølge undersøgelsen blev mangel på forsvarlig regulering afsløret som det største afskrækkende middel mod at investere i krypto for dem, der endnu ikke har gjort det, sammen med en mangel på viden om hvordan krypto virker, og den generelle markedsvolatilitet.
