According to ChainCatcher, Kraken released a survey report on its official website, which found that as many as 73% of American cryptocurrency holders plan to continue investing in cryptocurrencies in 2025, indicating that they hold a long-term optimistic attitude towards the market.
70% of U.S. cryptocurrency holders prefer to invest in established cryptocurrencies over other options such as meme coins (12%) and emerging tokens (17%). Compared to traditional assets such as stocks (34%), bonds (13%) and real estate (17%), U.S. cryptocurrency holders believe that cryptocurrencies (36%) have greater growth potential.
Interest in cryptocurrency investment spans across income levels, and while higher-income households (those making $175,000+ per year) are more likely to invest in cryptocurrencies (82%), more than half (59%) of lower-income groups (those making $0-24,999 per year) also plan to invest by 2025.
Additionally, while interest in cryptocurrencies spans all age groups, 69% of middle-aged respondents (45-60 years old) reported having purchased cryptocurrencies in the past, compared to 55% of younger respondents (18-29 years old). Middle-aged investors (46%) clearly prefer cryptocurrencies over traditional stocks (23%) in their future investment plans, dispelling the notion that cryptocurrencies are primarily for younger generations.
