By the way, this study called “Unraveling the essence of cryptocurrencies” and it was the sixth in a row, and it is conducted every year. This study stressed the major role played by cryptocurrencies in modern life.

The report says that “ 66% of Europeans said that they have heard about cryptocurrencies. 9% have already purchased it. Another 16% said that they are going to buy it in the future, which means that the investment interest in cryptocurrencies will almost double. If we consider that still 34% of Europeans do not know what the phenomenon of “cryptocurrency” is, the growth potential is generally significant.”
