In October 2024, CryptoLiteracy.org conducted a survey among 670 US respondents to assess the knowledge level about cryptocurrencies and their impact on the digital economy.

2024 Crypto Literacy Survey Results

According to the survey results, 98.6% of respondents with advanced cryptocurrency knowledge own digital assets, compared to only 32% with limited understanding. Cryptocurrency awareness has significantly increased since 2022, with 31.8% claiming to know “a great deal” about it, which is three times higher than before. 29% of Americans incorporate cryptocurrencies into their retirement plans, and 22% use them for everyday transactions. However, 59% emphasize the need for regulation.

The Impact of Knowledge on Cryptocurrency Adoption

Neil Bergquist, CEO of Coinme, emphasized the importance of education in unlocking the full potential of cryptocurrencies. He noted that the growing knowledge base could lead to broader adoption of digital assets.

Challenges and Misconceptions in Cryptocurrency

Despite increased knowledge, there are still gaps in understanding complex concepts: only 22% can identify a private key, 14% understand DeFi principles, and 9% are familiar with staking. Additionally, misconceptions persist, such as the belief that cryptocurrencies are primarily used for illegal activities, which 60% of respondents support, despite evidence to the contrary.

The survey demonstrates a significant increase in the understanding of cryptocurrencies and the need for their regulation. The primary focus is on education to ensure genuine and safe adoption of digital assets.
