Actual statement from the linked to link...<p>&gt; According to The State of Consumer Banking &amp; Payments report published on January 25, 2022, by Morning Consult, most American adults at 24% owned cryptocurrencies as of 2021.<p>&gt; The figure was slightly higher than 23% of Americans who own certificates of deposit. Notably, a certificate of deposit refers to a savings account holding a fixed amount of money for a specified period.<p>Report here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;go.morningconsult.com&#x2F;rs&#x2F;850-TAA-511&#x2F;images&#x2F;220120_State_of_Consumer_Banking.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;go.morningconsult.com&#x2F;rs&#x2F;850-TAA-511&#x2F;images&#x2F;220120_S...</a><p>Which mentions...<p>&gt; Poll conducted Dec. 23-25, 2021, among a representative sample of 2,200 U.S. adults, with an _unweighted margin of error of +&#x2F;-2 percentage points._<p>My emphasis on +&#x2F;- 2 percentage points when differing between 23 and 24 percent.

&gt; The study was conducted between December 23-25, 2021, while sampling feedback from 2,200 United States adults.<p>Randomly selected? Members of some crypto site? Garbage website makes sure there&#x27;s no methodology or link to it you so will never know.

Probably 98% had (some) cash. So cash is favoured over. crypto.
