A Gallup survey conducted in July 2025 revealed that 64% of U.S. investors view cryptocurrency as high-risk, despite an increase in ownership of digital assets.
Gallup Survey Results
According to the latest Gallup survey, 64% of U.S. investors consider cryptocurrency 'very risky.' Over recent years, ownership has risen from 2% in 2018 to 14% in 2025.
Investor Skepticism
The survey indicates that despite growing interest, 64% of investors refuse to purchase cryptocurrency. Experts like Leonard Kostovetsky from Baruch College highlight the high-risk factors associated with crypto investing.
Regulatory and Investment Expectations
The findings suggest that skepticism towards cryptocurrency limits institutional capital inflows. While interest is increasing, the market remains cautious and prefers traditional investments.
Thus, despite increasing awareness and interest in cryptocurrency, limited investment and high risks continue to pose significant challenges, as noted by Baruch College.
