The survey has also revealed that 20% of the total adults who participated in the survey are in possession of cryptocurrencies.
It was in 2022 when fear, uncertainty, and doubt surged among investors involving cryptocurrencies. The cryptocurrencies kept on losing their market traction and with declining values, the uncertainty kept on rising about their future.
Despite the FUD, 20% of adults in the United States have continued holding onto cryptocurrencies. They are confident about the future of cryptocurrencies and they have put their faith in them.
A certain group of respondents has confirmed that they have not invested in cryptocurrencies for the last time. They have invested in cryptocurrencies no matter the market situation.

This means that although there is a fluctuation in the adoption level, it has remained within the range of 17% and 20%.
It is a strong indication that despite the market downtrend, investors in the United States have not lost their confidence in cryptocurrencies.
