Exeno organized a survey to study cryptocurrency holdings and the spending patterns of modern customers. The research was part of the effort to explore the role of cryptocurrency in people’s lives and identify what should be done to improve the online shopping experience.
People are ready to buy products with cryptocurrency
The respondents were asked whether they would buy goods such as smartphones, tablets, computers, and game consoles with cryptocurrency. Two-thirds gave an affirmative answer: 65% of respondents are ready to buy these goods for their cryptocurrency. Most customers find cryptocurrency to be an attractive payment method.
Cryptocurrencies’ main advantage over FIAT money seems to lie in its politically independent nature. Fifty-four percent of respondents are open to using their cryptocurrency to buy real estate, 45% to buy cars, and 33 % to acquire electronic gadgets (respondents were allowed to give more than one answer).
Buying luxurious, expensive things with cryptocurrency seems to be a common strategy, likely due to exchange rate fluctuations offering an opportunity to make a purchase at a low price point. Regarding the frequency of and rationale for spending cryptocurrency, 21% of respondents would use their cryptocurrency for major purchases; 28% are considering using cryptocurrency as a regular payment method.
Why do some people still avoid shopping with cryptocurrency?
Although 65% of the respondents are open to shopping with cryptocurrency, only 22% have done so. The prevailing cause was simply the lack of shops accepting such payments: 36% of respondents pointed to popular stores not honoring cryptocurrency. Twenty-four percent were apprehensive about going through complex procedures required from cryptocurrency users. Nineteen percent are wary of high exchange rates and 14% of high commissions.
Twenty-three percent of respondents are planning to spend their cryptocurrency in the very near future (‘right now’), and another 32% are ready to take this step within the next 1-3 years. Thus, the survey suggests that 55% of cryptocurrency holders are likely to be looking for stores accepting cryptocurrency payments. Only 8% declared the intent to HODL their digital coins for 10 years or more.
The survey results show a clear upward trend in the popularity of cryptocurrencies as a payment method. Such players as Exeno see this potential with a growing number of cryptocurrencies transactions every day. The research was conducted in June and July 2021. Participants answered 10 multiple-choice questions via an anonymous online form.
