A survey has indicated that Hungarians would like to learn more about the long-term investment opportunities presented by cryptocurrencies. However, associated risks and insufficient information in their native language are major concerns, according to the polled.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hungarians Want to Know How Crypto Profits Are Taxed and What Rules Apply to Such Investments<\/h2>\n

With increased global interest in cryptocurrencies over the past few years, a new poll has gauged how closely Hungary follows the general trend, local media reported. The results of the survey, conducted by the world\u2019s largest crypto exchange, Binance<\/a>, and market research firm Opinio, were shared with the Hungarian news agency MTI.<\/p>\n

The research established that a majority of Hungarians think that crypto investments still come with higher-than-average risks. Another issue they see is the lack of sufficient information in the Hungarian language about the digital assets.<\/p>\n

Those who remain wary of cryptocurrencies also highlight their concerns over privacy and fears that they are not secure enough as a form of investment.<\/p>\n

Respondents who are open to acquiring crypto would like to know more about long-term investment opportunities, how income earned from such transactions is taxed, and what domestic and international regulations apply to trading.<\/p>\n

The authors of the study found that 86% of the participants had never used cryptocurrency, while 4% are considered occasional users. Around 3% view crypto assets as a source of additional income and for 1%, cryptocurrency is the primary source of income.<\/p>\n

The survey also registered that even Hungarians who stay away from crypto assets know about Bitcoin. Among cryptocurrency traders, 61%, stated they prefer to buy bitcoin (BTC<\/a>), followed by investors in ethereum (ETH<\/a>), who accounted for 45% of the sample.<\/p>\n

The representative online poll was conducted in the first half of December, with 1,034 respondents between 18 and 59 who owned a smartphone, and taking into account gender, education, and place of residence, besides age.<\/p>\n
