People are weird because they will only buy in when it pumps so they will buy when the market is high like last year. Then they complain that they lost it when the bear market happens. Buy now people!

I visited the link and saw the logo YouGov, I closed the tab and didn't bother to read.
It's an incentive survey so people have been paid to take it. And since it's a paid one, people always try to reply what the system wants to get the money (it varies from $0.50 to $5) And I know very well where these surveys are submitted. Which explain the survey results, otherwise the result would be surely different.
And knowing the audience I can tell you that over 80% of them know cryptocurrency, and perhaps about 15-20% use it

How many people would refuse even an informal survey?

For instance, when enthusiastic strangers occasionally talk to me about crypto (and I can count the number of times it happens on 1 hand), I tend to feign disinterest, despite them being desperate to give me a crypto-baptism. If they talk too much about it to complete strangers, they're the wrong person to exchange any personal interests with, no matter the subject.

How many people like me d'ya think sign up for consumer polling organisations? How many people like me d'ya think are bitcoiners?

Finally a survey with some results that seem faintly plausible. 4% of Brits reported buying some crypto. That still feels on the high side but rather more believable than the penises who tell us 19% of Turks have some.

Not sure what the sample size is but they have 800,000 members that they tap on varying subjects.
