Ripple CEO highlights surprising U.S. crypto data
Earlier this week, as U.Today reported, Brad Garlinghouse revealed a surprising statistic about cryptocurrency ownership in the U.S. The report highlighted by Garlinghouse had been published by the National Cryptocurrency Association (NCA).

According to the data revealed in it, a staggering 21% of American citizens hold cryptocurrencies. What's more, 75% of those U.S. holders admitted to seeing a positive impact on crypto on their lives. Garlinghouse then stressed the importance of the existence of such organizations as NCA, saying that they are “spotlighting the practical, everyday use cases possible through crypto.”
According to the aforesaid report, 70% of the above-mentioned U.S. holders are men. They are professionally engaged in areas such as construction, technology and finance. More than half of the holders are millennials, while only about 15% are over 55.
Surprisingly, roughly 39% of the total number of holders have used crypto to pay for purchases. The majority (52%), however, does not go beyond investing in crypto and is just sitting on it, while about 15% have used crypto assets for purchasing real estate and other property. The survey also revealed that approximately 73% of respondents are eager for the U.S. to become a global leader in the crypto space. They likely support the steps of U.S. President Trump taken in this direction — the creation of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, with nearly 100,000 BTC in it already.
