Interest in investing in cryptocurrencies spans across income levels, and while high-income households (earning more than $175,000 per year) are more likely to invest in cryptocurrencies (82%), more than half (59%) of low-income groups (earning between $0 and $24,999 per year) also plan to invest in 2025. The main driver of cryptocurrency adoption is positive price action (31%), followed by institutional adoption (22%), regulation (22%), personal recommendations (15%), and negative price action (8%).
