Pollfish surveyed 1,932 crypto investors for OKX between Oct. 14 and 18, including 1,000 in the US and the remainder in France, Germany, the Netherlands and Poland, finding that 55% of US respondents expect to raise their crypto allocation over five years, with 22% planning a significant increase. Yet 42% of US respondents said an equal stock portfolio commands more social respect than crypto wealth, compared with 28% in Europe. Only 34% of US investors considered crypto wealth as legitimate as wealth built in stocks or real estate. The survey also found 7% of Americans share their approximate portfolio value with close friends, versus 15% in Europe, and 24% would conceal a sudden fortune, twice Europe’s 12%.
