  • Although 14% of U.S. adults overall report owning bitcoin or another cryptocurrency, the rate varies significantly by gender and age. Ownership is much higher, at 25%, among men aged 18 to 49 than among men aged 50 and older (12%), women aged 50 and older (9%) and women aged 18 to 49 (8%).Jul 22, 2025.

 Roughly one in seven U.S. adults, 14%, report owning cryptocurrency today, with few others intending to buy it soon. Most Americans say they won’t ever buy it, as their perception of it being a very risky investment appears to be a key barrier. source link

Will you get the last ten and fifteen year returns from returns from Bitcoin in the future?

No, we missed it. It is probable we will not get these returns in the future. But it is also probable that trends in motion tend to stay in motion. We now have a bench mark return to measure your returns against. Bitcoin’s CAGR return. If what we are invested in isn’t beating Bitcoin’s returns, maybe we should own some Bitcoin.
