I read the whole thing, including the survey results summary, but nowhere do I see how a survey of 2,000 of their own subscribers can be magnified to “represent” three million people. That methodology is not mentioned anywhere that I can see. And while I am definitely not a statistician this seems like massaging the numbers to an extraordinary degree.
I certainly have no doubt that a portion of the 2,000 people surveyed, that are very-likely already interested in cryptocurrency, use cryptocurrency for cross-border transactions as they say they do. But that’s all the survey shows absent an explained methodology for extrapolating larger numbers from their pool.
Edit: clarity.
- stevenjgarner 4y agoWhatever the audited data might be, there is a significant population of people in many countries around the world using crypto as a currency, not as an investment. At the end of the day, that may be its true value/demand. I have no doubt that regulators will do their best to make that more and more difficult, but the net effect of that seems to only enhance its value as a currency.
