Vice President JD Vance has championed Bitcoin as a financial tool for unbanked and working-class Americans at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference. Despite low crypto adoption rates, he argues digital assets can expand financial inclusion. However, data shows usage remains uneven across demographics.
- Only 17% of U.S. adults have ever used cryptocurrency, with just 8% adopting it in the past year.
- Crypto usage is highest among Asian Americans (28%), men aged 18-29, and upper-income groups (23%).
- Bitcoin ownership (14%) trails traditional investments like stocks (26% of households) and retirement accounts (60%).
