A recent study indicates that one in five U.S. adults aged 27 to 42 is involved in cryptocurrency investment. In contrast, individuals over 43 years old tend to be more doubtful about digital assets, favoring investments in real estate and stocks.
The Policygenius research revealed that Generation Z and millennials are the most engaged investors in the U.S., showing a preference for alternative assets like cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Specifically, 20% of U.S. citizens aged 18 to 26 (Gen Z) and 22% of those between 27 and 42 (millennials) possess digital assets. The proportion of crypto investors among the baby boomer generation (over 59 years) and Generation X (43 to 58 years) is only 5% and 10%, respectively.
24% of millennials and 28% of Generation X invest in real estate, whereas just 13% of Gen Z opt for this asset class. Older millennials are the most inclined to invest in real estate, with 45% of baby boomers participating in this market.
