Thanks for the poll OP! Was expecting more investors to be between 20-30 as has been the case in previous years, or the previous bull/bear market. It's interesting to see from this poll that there are more users between 30-40 these days, even if it's just Bitcoin holders getting older! I think this also shows how Bitcoin itself is maturing, if the age of investors/traders is increasing, it's heading in the right direction.

Interesting to see so few users are under 22, personally I would of expected a lot more.

That's clear, the long term holders and the cryptocurrency users have turned to age above 30 years of age. This makes the age group of 30-40 to be the high volume cryptocurrency holders. The people who came into cryptocurrency for the first time seems to be more into cryptocurrency.

To be honest, I am not surprised with this considering that NFTs became like a trend around here in my country especially those play to earn games stuffs that I am not really a fan of.
Although that is not Bitcoin, I can see people leaning towards it since it is the dominant crypto of all and you would not fail to see it nor hear it at least once for sure.
Bitcoin has been here for so long, so.... we should expect a lot of "elders".

People between the ages of 18 to 45 are generally more addicted to Bitcoin and another cryptocurrency. But in this modern world even boys and girls below 18 years of age are now leaning towards Bitcoin. But in my opinion 25-40 year old people use Bitcoin the most. Be it boys or girls

I agree bit O wouldn't say these are people addicted to Bitcoin. Age 25-40 are people who probably have steady job or other sources of income to invest and these over 30 and closer to 40 are very likely involved in Bitcoin for longer period of time and therefore quite experienced and so far witnessed all phases that Bitcoin went through. So, to my opinion one who is investing in Bitcoin for longer period of time and it's patient and aware of all risks but also benefits of long term loyalty to Bitcoin is definitely not a teenager.

I think that those people who learn and use Bitcoin at 18 years old must be in a special circumstance what pushed them to do so. For example, in most of developed countries the youth have no "need" to use Bitcoin beyond speculation, since in those nations the access to banking and financial instruments is widespread, they would likely just settle and use Paypal, for exmaple.

On the other hand, in developing countries there is a real need and demand for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrrencies as a payment method, since the access to US dollars and Euros is rectricted by the state itself, Venezuela and Argentina are good examples of this and the reason exchanges are commonly used to adquire stablecoins and Bitcoin.

There is no best age for holding bitcoin. One can invest in bitcoin as soon as he understands the market irrespective of age. Maximum of the bitcoin holders range from age 25 to 35.

I think the best age for holding bitcoin will be round about 25 to 34. A young man knows how to deal with bulls and bears.

It's not a big deal if someone can see the results on the poll because it was just an age anyway. This is something that we must be proud of. It is a not a kyc that is very important and should be hidden, but on the result, I can see that most users here are now 40 plus. That's interesting, I thought most users here are still young like 30's and below.

I can also not really believe that the average age is that old. Especially since we are here on an Internet forum which will not at the same time represent the overall adoption of bitcoin. One reason I can think of, is that here are many difficult technical topics and it is not easy for many young people to respond to such topics.
Maybe we can get some more people to vote, to have a more detailed statistic!

I did not think that there would be such a small number of people between the ages of 18-22. This result actually surprised me. Actually, when I think about it, most of the bitcoin interested people you meet on the forum or social life were over 40 years old. I see that people with more life experience are more knowledgeable and profitable about bitcoin. People of that age are usually more courageous than the younger ones. And unfortunately, the people who hold the most bitcoins are not young people.

To be honest, the data and survey results doesn't really surprised me as each bracket of age has it's own reason as to why the amount or percentage of crypto/bitcoin holders are that amount. I mean, on the age bracket of 18-22, there's not many people who are willing to risk their allowance or their salary on cryptocurrency. However if you look on the bracket of 25-40 years old, more people are currently holders with these age as most of them are looking for investments other than stocks, and real states.

In regards to those threads about age: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-in-gen-z-5396058 and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1529447.0;viewResults I wondered how this changed over time and if the assumptions are correct.
I want to point out that as far as I know nobody (including me) is able to see for what option you have voted if you are concerned about your data.

On this second link, the thread was posted on the year of 2016 so 6 years have passed already. I think changes are already noticeable on that span of time. Not only the age that were added to those bitcoin users but also the wisdom and experience. They are now more confident and they can now decide properly if what to do on different situations.

I agree that Gen Z is being seen as a major force in this market, but they are not targeting bitcoin but altcoins and shitcoins instead.

Could be that this forum is a little bit to oldschool for Gen Z people, since here everything is more regulated and also the layout is more 2000-2010 Grin

. But I don't find this necessarily a bad thing, since this forum has also a lot of influence in the development of bitcoin and a serous talk about that would be way harder on a forum like reddit where everything is more of a mess.

"little bit too old school" is a very gentle way to put it Grin

I'm used to visit it so it's not a big deal but other people used to new forums of course wouldn't like this layout/graphic.

Anyway talking about Gen Z "investments" probably it's also because they follow a lot of shitty influencers on TikTok who make a lot of money out of these naive people, that's why they prefer to buy Shiba instead of BTC.

at the age of more than 45, I think many of them seem to want to develop assets that they already have. by choosing cryptocurrencies and they use cold money, most of them are more prepared to deal with crypto volatility than people aged 20-30 years. I think psychology is the main obstacle for young people, because they are developing assets, and not infrequently they use money from anywhere to multiply their assets.

Most likely, they've got tons of cash that they can invest or they're cash broke but with hefty investments. For the younger ones, it's all about fear. They want to be assured of something that they want to invest but honestly, they're the best shape to take risks because they can just take it again with higher chance of success unlike the older ones.

Quote from: hZti on June 24, 2022, 02:15:23 AM

In my experience the age group form 20-40 is also way more in the mood to show off and talk about their investments, since many of them are actively investing or searching for something to invest in that moment. If you are 45 or older you have already chosen on what to invest and only put in a percentage of your income in that asset. For many people this is not as exiting anymore and just party of daily business, so they are not really talking that much about it anymore.

Based on stats, that's much likely it is but still can't ignore the fact that many of the older ones are still unsure of which path to go because not all of them are open for investments.

I rarely meet investors at an already respectful age - more than 45. I think that people at this age either no longer think about such investments, or I just don’t know such investments.

You probably just haven't met one. But in real life, I've met usually from 20-40 and a few from 45 and above when I've attended those gatherings that are related to cryptocurrencies. At that age, they should be more into investments and mostly, they're still a working class that has a lot of it expanded and scattered in many investments which includes bitcoin.

hi ,OP...

It gives me a remembrance blow with your thread title and the Age of Empires 1997 game, in which version are we going...? I tell you I didn't even remember that game and I think I lost the thread in the 21st century.

But what does it matter at that time I was young today not so much, but here we are, the important thing with bitcoin is to belong at some point or remain forever, you just have to know that it exists.
Age is only a temporary "relative"_ of the price at which I bought my first bitcoins

I am not surprised by the results so far. It's the demographic that has some money to invest and is open to new ideas. The older generations are slowly warming to crypto, but it's not even close to younger generations who in turn are not even close to what older generations can put into investing (money wise).

from what I'm seeing right now the younger generation is seeing money and also invest wisely than the older generation, because this generation is cryptocurrency minded which i know and also observe from the rate of cryptocurrency investment and campaign of cryptocurrency before now. The factor now is that both oldest people is investing wisely without the concernment of youths or Young adults. and also youths now is even pushing more money for cryptocurrency without listening to elders as
