Survey: Switzerland's cryptocurrency usage rate reached 23%, more than double that of Germany

Comparing news, Bearingpoint's latest survey shows that 23% of Swiss adults use cryptocurrencies at least occasionally, which is significantly higher than the 18% in Austria and 11% in Germany. Furthermore, 37% of Swiss respondents think cryptocurrencies are worth investing in, 45% think they can be used as international trade or reserve currency in the future, and 44% say they are willing to use central bank digital currency (CBDC). The relevant ratio is higher than in Germany and Austria.

According to the report, Switzerland has formed a mature crypto ecosystem since implementing the DLT Act in 2021, and Crypto Valley has gathered 1,749 blockchain and DLT companies. Germany, on the other hand, plans to rely on traditional banking channels such as DZ Bank and Dekabank to promote crypto asset services to narrow the popularity gap with Switzerland.
