Despite the gloom of the ongoing cryptocurrency winter, coupled with the failure of crypto giants like FTX, the community appears to remain bullish on crypto, according to a new survey.
Crypto markets witnessed a massive sell-off in 2022, with the total market cap plummeting nearly 70% since Bitcoin (BTC) hit its all-time high of $69,000 in November 2021.
That didn’t stop investors from buying more cryptocurrency, however, as 41% of respondents in an online survey by Blockchain.com said they bought crypto in 2022.
The poll, released Dec. 22, polled more than 40,000 people worldwide who visited the Blockchain.com Explorer website, which is one of the world’s largest crypto websites in terms of traffic. The study is titled “Crypto Confidence: A Survey on Investor Sentiment” and was conducted between November 28th and December 9th, 2022.
According to survey results, a significant portion of people are also willing to continue buying cryptocurrency in the next year. Despite a challenging year for the crypto industry, nearly 40% of respondents said they plan to buy cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in 2023.
Additionally, around 40% of respondents said they will be talking about crypto at the holiday table this season, which is seen as a sign of growing awareness.
