A new survey from the National Cryptocurrency Association indicates that 90% of U.S. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency holders plan to buy more digital assets in the future, reflecting strong conviction among existing investors. The findings, publicized by Bitcoin Archive on October 20, 2026, show adoption is broadening beyond younger demographics.
According to the survey, 28% of crypto users are now aged 55 or older, double the share recorded in 2020. Meanwhile, around 27 million people in North America reportedly use crypto for remittances, underscoring that digital assets are increasingly used for cross-border payments rather than only for speculation.
Separately, BitGo highlighted that 112 million Americans want direct cryptocurrency support from their banks. This signals a growing demand for traditional financial institutions to integrate crypto services. BitGo’s digital asset report also pointed to Bitcoin’s recent rebound and a notable legal win related to Bitcoin perpetual futures, while stablecoins are becoming more integral to everyday transactions.
Together, the survey and demand data paint a picture of expanding adoption: holders intend to accumulate more, older users are entering the market, and banking integration is increasingly expected by U.S. consumers.
