U.S. voters are increasingly drawn to bitcoin, fueled by macroeconomic developments and its maturation as an asset, Grayscale’s latest poll revealed. Around 47% of American voters expect to include crypto as part of their portfolio, underscoring the topic’s prominence in the upcoming November election.
Geopolitical tension, polarizing political discourse and continuing inflation have led more U.S. voters to seek bitcoin, but also major developments surrounding the token including the approval of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds, according to the survey. Former President and current 2024 leading Republican candidate Donald Trump has publicly announced his support for the U.S. crypto economy recently, saying that the U.S. needs to forge a leadership position in the global crypto race.
