A study commissioned by Circle Internet Financial highlights that crypto investing is predominantly led by young men, with Millennial men planning to invest in cryptocurrencies at more than twice the rate of Millennial women (18% vs. 7%). The survey of over 3,000 Millennials, Gen Xers, and Baby Boomers in the U.S. found that one in four Millennials expressed interest in purchasing crypto over the next year, a rate significantly higher than that of Baby Boomers. Circle emphasizes its belief in the potential of crypto technology to create and share value across all generations and genders and is focused on making crypto investing accessible through a simplified product experience and educational content. Circle is committed to transforming financial transactions to make them more accessible, inclusive, and efficient globally, thereby enhancing economic opportunities.
