Research: only 4% of people in the world own Bitcoin.
Currently, only 4% of the planet's population owns digital gold, according to a study by River.
The highest concentration of holders is observed in the USA, where 14% of people own Bitcoin.
According to analytical data, North America leads in cryptocurrency adoption levels among individuals and organizations. The least developed market is Africa, where the share of digital asset owners is only 1.6%.
Researchers emphasize that Bitcoin has only tapped into 3% of its potential market. This figure was calculated based on an analysis of the maximum accessible audience, including governments, corporations, and institutional investors.
The main barriers to the widespread adoption of cryptocurrency remain insufficient financial and technical literacy. Many still consider digital gold a fraudulent scheme.
The high volatility of the asset also hinders its use as a store of value or medium of exchange, especially in developing countries.
Experts emphasize that despite progress, Bitcoin remains in the early stages of global distribution.#MtGoxTransfers #CryptoAdoption
