STAMFORD, Conn., Dec. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grayscale Investments®, the world’s largest crypto asset manager*, today announced findings from a new national survey 2024 Election: The Role of Crypto, conducted on its behalf by The Harris Poll, examining how Americans view crypto, investing, perceptions of the financial system, and how these issues may influence voting decisions in the 2024 United States presidential election.
8 in 10 American adults (82%) plan to vote in the 2024 presidential election. These likely voters believe there are flaws in key elements of the current financial system, including modernity and inclusion, and also see financial technology innovations, like crypto, blockchain, and AI as means to boost transparency and promote financial equality.
“Crypto is here to stay, and the survey data clearly indicates that crypto has never been more relevant heading into an American presidential election,” said Grayscale CEO Michael Sonnenshein. “Likely voters, especially younger generations and voters of color, are voting with their financial future in mind: they are concerned about the state of the economy and are considering presidential candidates’ positions on emerging technologies like crypto before casting their ballots in 2024. The strong interest from both Democrats and Republicans also indicates that crypto is very much a non-partisan topic.”
Highlights from 2024 Election: The Role of Crypto include:
Methodology
This survey was conducted online by The Harris Poll on behalf of Grayscale via its Harris On Demand omnibus product within the United States between November 27 - 29, 2023. 2,090 total adults were surveyed, including 1,759 adults (ages 18+) that plan to vote in the U.S. 2024 presidential election. Data were weighted where necessary by a variety of factors – including age, gender, race/ethnicity, region, education, marital status, household size, household income, employment, and propensity to be online – to bring them in line with their actual proportions in the population.
Respondents for this survey were selected from among those who have agreed to participate in Harris Poll surveys. The sampling precision of Harris online polls is measured with a Bayesian credible interval. For this study, the sample data is accurate to within +/- 2.7 percentage points using a 95% confidence level. All sample surveys and polls, whether or not they use probability sampling, are subject to other multiple sources of error, which are most often not possible to quantify or estimate, including but not limited to: coverage error, error associated with nonresponse, error associated with question wording and response options, and post-survey weighting and adjustments.
