This is a very small number. I used to think that in the United States there are a lot of whales that are investing in the cryptocurrency market. But it seems that US investors do not like Bitcoin as investors in Europe and Asia
Topic: Poll reveals 2% of American investors own Bitcoin - page 2. (Read 982 times)
Given America is a developed country, this poll came off as a shock. The numbers should have been way higher than a mere 2%. The government needs to get to the core and see why the numbers are so less.
Because the US government has many restrictions on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. A number of large ICO projects have banned people from living in the United States. So 2% of American investors own Bitcoin are normal
If the world and government is fair.
i think Americans should have now more than 10 percent of BITCOIN
but they want to regulate it and get their people pit of cryptocurrency a sad truth.

Cryptocurrency is really going good but it needs lots of improvements. It has some minor problem also which can be solved by developers. Doing these things can influence more people to participate here.
i don't know why so many people in this topic and the duplicates of it are claiming this to be "shocking"! 2% may be a little off the market but it still is a pretty good estimate and lets not forget that the price rise (or more accurately the shoot up to the moon) brought in a lot of investors and this poll is only asking "investors" not regular people.
if it did ask regular people then the percentage would have been less than 0.5%

A recent Gallup poll shows the early adopters of Bitcoin among American investors.
2% might not sound like it's a lot but it's a very good start for such a new investment category. The question is what else needs to be done to get that 2% number higher?

For advance country like america, i think 2% is too little. If 20% peoples America start investing their money in cryptocurrency market, I am believe crypto market will more attractive. But i am believe in next years, many peoples in the world will involve in crypto market because crypto right now gain more popularity
Many american people buy bitcoin for their retirement, bitcoin has good future so they buy bitcoin. Most of american people are open minded so they can accept bitcoin when they realize that there are many benefits on it.
I think that more than 2% and in general, since many wallets are not controlled
If just 2% adoption could do this to the Bitcoin price then think of what a 10% adoption rate would do. And in this 2% too I think that very less people own a substantial amount. There is still too much room left for Bitcoin to grow and there is nothing stopping it from achieving it.
In my opinion, now, due to the fact that the rate BTC is falling, the growth of investment in bitcoin has slowed. But already in terms of circulation this cryptocurrency is included in the TOP 5 world currencies.
Well it's still shows a good percentage despite the problems bitcoin had face. American knows what system could help them and I'm just so happy that there's still 2% who believe in bitcoin. It's just amazing that bitcoin is receiving the trust it needs to perform. I hope that those percentage will get high and rise as well.It astounds me that this number is so low. I am proud to be a part of that 2%, I take pride in holding Bitcoin! This is Bullish that this number is so incredibly small. This number will surely increase as time goes on, as Bitcoin each day is looking like a more and more legitimate asset and a fantastic alternative to gold. Bitcoin fits great in today's digital society.
I think that something like Bitcoin was inevitable. There needs to be a way to store value on the internet without a third party. This is simply a must have today and in the future. Bitcoin fulfilled this, and because of that, adoption will only increase as time goes on, like it has been since 2009.
There are several things can be done to increase participation. Like a lots of positive promotion and success stories are needed. And i think the whole process is need to be easy.

Well honestly that number might be too low but if you will analyze deeper then you will realize that the number is still good. We all know that bitcoin is still developing so having a trust from 2% of americans is already a good number to start. I hope that time will come for that number to rise and get high. It would be awesome to have many americans in this system.i'd say it is at least twice the amount that it should be. meaning below 1% and unlike what these news sites keep saying, it is not 2% of Americans nor American investors. it is 2% of a small group that they chose from. read Franky's comment above. it is their group that is mostly interested in bitcoin in my opinion. and the real number of bitcoin investors is a lot less than that which is clearly seen on the low price of bitcoin!
and this figure will only increase, believe me, in 10 years everyone will be shocked by the price of bitcoin

Its usual but I think European people are more interested in cryptocurrency. Though there are many people in US who invested in bitcoin but investment in cryptocurrency are more attractive to the Europeans. As a matter of fact, many projects are originated in Europe however, Asia is growing right now and expect that it will change when Asian people hold coins. 2% might not sound like it's a lot but it's a very good start for such a new investment category. The question is what else needs to be done to get that 2% number higher?

The link has some good opinions. But to make Bitcoin more than 2%, I think Bitcoin will be more secure. Bitcoin has to be more easy and technological improvements than ever. But it is certain that Bitcoin's future potential.
That's quite reasonable. Do you expect Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos will invest their money to enter into the crypto business just because high rate of return? I( mean they surely will show interest to invest but not that much.
