US Crypto Adoption Sees Resurgence, With Bitcoin Maintaining Dominance

A recent survey by Deutsche Bank has revealed that cryptocurrency adoption in the US has experienced a significant resurgence, with participation rates returning to levels last seen in mid-2025. The survey, which polled 3,400 consumers across the US, UK, and EU, found that US participation rebounded to 12% in March, up from a February low of 7%. This uptick in adoption has been accompanied by a resurgence in bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which attracted approximately $1.3 billion in net inflows in March, signaling renewed institutional demand. Despite this rebound, consumer sentiment on bitcoin's price outlook remains subdued, with a majority of respondents expecting the cryptocurrency to trade lower than current levels by the end of 2026. Nevertheless, bitcoin remains the dominant force in the crypto market, with roughly 70% of crypto investors across regions holding the cryptocurrency, and it is also the top choice for future investment, cited by 69% of US respondents.
