I remember filling in a few surveys for someone doing his/her dissertation on the subject, but I'm not sure if these results are publicly available already.

^ Some interesting information can be taken from this. It's good to get an idea of the demographics for people who want to help promote Bitcoin/Cryptocurrencies.

Thanks for posting the links

I think now a lot of variety of people using bitcoin. I believe some people are more young people who are still a major contributor to the bitcoin. bitcoin now become part of the largest financial transactions.

That's true majority of the users in community is youth, as youth is very keen to learn new things and they are tech friendly too, and the number of users will go higher in future.

Hi I wonder about the demographics of bitcoin. Who uses it, race, location, gender?

I read the coindesk paper on it, but wonder if there is some other more updated documentation on it.

Regards

It will be many and varied data that I think. But I know bitcoin used by men and women, ranging from farmers to high-ranking officials using bitcoin to facilitate their transactions. Moreover, in this digital age, many young people are already using bitcoin to support their school needs like me Smiley . hehe
Wealthy youngsters more likely to be freetards than anyone else. old people in the age limits of 50 to 60's were more involved as they are more likely to be investors and employers.

That makes sense, youngsters being the more risky or foolish using bitcoin to gamble, buy drugs, or other stuff. Older folk would by experience know better on how to invest and wisely use bitcoin which can be seen as money. Bitcoin is basically money in a different currency other than flat common-day currency.

Interesting!
I would have expected a much more linear graph, not a Gaussian like this! Instead it seems there is reall a massive amount of people in there 30 using btc ^^

By looking at this graph i think we need to target more older users since they have more money to invest into bitcoin.  There may be al lot of younger users but how many of them actually hold more than dust? The main problem with more older users is many are not computer literate and may find the whole thing very daunting.

Bitcoin uses advanced technically advanced people, traders and investors. And also, I think, the scientists who study and involve blokchain.
By the way, it is to say, all of these people from the developed countries. In third world countries Bitcoin is not popular, or even yet in doubt.

Holy crap!  I didn't think any geriatric folks used bitcoin, but it's a big world with lots of different birds in the forest.   Not surprised at all that the majority are young people.   That's good to see.  I see bitcoin as bringing everyone from very diverse backgrounds a little bit closer together.   Gives me a big fat hard on at night.

can't say it's a reliable survey if the survey were held through internet or online surveys,its can be faked by the respondent, different if bitcoinsinireland.com do an offline survey by inviting so many bitcoiners there
Hmm,i think the number above like lol,55-60 are just faked,i really cannot believe that we already have some
70 year's old using bitcoin network.it just dont seems possible for me lol.
It is a internet survey,the real result might be completely different.

Im sure that a lot of diifferent people use this,but we can say easily that it is not so popular amont the older people,
what is not surprising,most of them probably just dont know about it.
From my observation's i would say Men aged about 18-25,but i know more older people in bitcoin too.

For us people in age of 20-30 bitcoin is myth so far.
Most of my friends is not even familiar of that technology
many of thet think of it like big ponzi sheme get rich and fast or lose a lot of money.
I think that in future some coins will go over BTC i am sure maybe we don't have it on
market right now but i sure that in future goverments they will have their own BTC10.0 type,
something with atomative taxation stuff like that.
We are going into e world more and more everyday so people will use BTC as gold today.
We are living in world where more wealth is created in enthernet space everyday.
This trend is rising its only matter of time when emoney will be very popular.
But that won't be BTC with 10min blocks for sure.
Wold is fast today people want technology like 1s transaction time and 1000tx/s.
Sadly this is not BTC today to fit such technology today.

It would be great to get this kind of data, it would be very useful for alot of people.

I know a few people who have run surveys and the questions have included these types of questions, would be great to pool all the surveys for Bitcoin together to get a good data mine of these demographics.
