U.S. Survey Results: Most People Are Shy About Crypto

Although more than two-thirds of people do not trust digital asset developments, 21 percent are quite strict about crypto policies.
U.S. politicians continue to grapple with how to approach crypto issues. According to a Harris Poll survey of the industry, about 21% of voters in some states see cryptocurrency policies as important enough to affect their support.

Julie Stitzel, senior vice president of policy at Digital Currency Group, who commissioned the survey and positively evaluated the results, said: "The data shows that crypto is an important element for voters in Senate states, and a pro-crypto position is a positive driver for policymakers and candidates."

The results reveal that about 14% of respondents own cryptocurrencies, while others have a high awareness of emerging financial technology. However, according to responses from people in Michigan, Ohio, Montana, Pennsylvania, and Arizona, less than one in three voters surveyed (31%) have positive views on digital assets.

Those in the crypto-positive group, who say they will also take into account candidates' approaches to crypto in their voting decisions, represent about 13% of respondents. That leaves 8% who aren't as enthusiastic about policies that are friendly to digital assets.

More than two-thirds of respondents don't think federal officials, including the president and Congress, are ready to make adequate policy decisions on crypto.

The data suggests that as many as 47 million people could own digital asset if 14% of the U.S. population owned crypto, which is a lot of voters to contend with. The poll shows a fairly close balance between the two political parties. However, the survey also suggests that pro-crypto voters may be less inclined to vote than others.
