Outcomes of a recently conducted US social survey indicate that cryptocurrency has become a favored present for Christmas and New Year’s.
Staff members from the National Cryptocurrency Association and PayPal surveyed 2020 Americans aged 18 and older and determined that:
24% of respondents intend to bestow digital assets upon companions or family members;
65% of cryptocurrency holders plan to give digital assets as gifts, and 50% of them wish to receive them;
82% of individuals who have put funds into cryptocurrencies are willing to settle purchases with digital assets if stores begin accepting them.
17% of those polled would prefer to receive cryptocurrency as a present instead of a gift card because digital assets:
Will increase in value over time;
Can be utilized not just for spending, but also as an investment vehicle;
Are simpler to safeguard;
Are more exciting to be given;
Can be transmitted more swiftly.
The findings of a public opinion study carried out by Visa personnel suggest that Zoomers, aged 18 to 28, are the most frequent to desire cryptocurrency as a gift—in 45% of instances. Therefore, to avoid making an incorrect selection, it is best to present digital assets to younger individuals.
When contemplating the quantity of cryptocurrency, one should consider that the average gift value in the US is $90.
