US public sentiment on fintech and cryptocurrency
Overview
Recent Ipsos surveys of US adults indicate a preference for broad financial technology innovation over specific cryptocurrency or blockchain policies. While 35% of respondents view the development of next-generation financial technology as very or extremely important—with total support reaching 72% when including those who find it somewhat important—only 13% express similar high levels of importance for blockchain, cryptocurrency, or decentralized finance (DeFi).
The data reveals a significant gap in familiarity and trust. Only 9% of respondents report being very or extremely familiar with cryptocurrency, and 87% stated they have not owned or used digital assets in the last 12 months. Furthermore, only 19% of participants believe the current US financial system is safe, with 63% suggesting improvements are necessary to combat emerging threats like artificial intelligence and cybercrime.
