Researchers surveyed 10,000 U.S. adults who identified themselves as <span>cryptocurrency<\/span> holders between Feb. 12 and March 3, 2026. The findings were then weighted and extrapolated to estimate the broader U.S. crypto-owning population, leading to the report\u2019s estimate that roughly one in four American adults, or about 67 million people, own <span>cryptocurrency<\/span>. The survey reported a margin of error of plus or minus 0.7 percentage points at a 95% confidence level.<\/p>\n<h2>Everyday Use Cases Move <span>Crypto<\/span> Beyond Investing<\/h2>\n<p>Looking ahead, 90% of holders said they expect to buy <span>cryptocurrency<\/span> within the next year.
