Bitcoin IRA officials indicated more than 500 respondents completed the survey conducted last month – adding individuals did not receive compensation or likewise for their participation.

“Bitcoin and crypto are quickly becoming a prerequisite to a modern portfolio,” Bitcoin IRA COO and Co-Founder Chris Kline said. “Americans see an opportunity to move beyond traditional ways of interacting and transacting, particularly when it comes to their retirement portfolios. Investors are looking towards digital assets as a key tool in their retirement makeup.”

Kline said beyond stocks and bonds, investors are adding more to their investment mix, like crypto.

Other key survey findings include 40 percent of respondents are interested in investing in cryptocurrency in speculation that prices will increase; 46 percent of respondents indicated they look forward to traditional financial institutions adopting digital assets in the future; 55 percent of respondents were between the ages of 41 to 65 when they bought their first cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin IRA indicated the company has processed billions of domestic dollars in transactions and has over 150,000 users with more than 3,500 5-star user reviews.
