Insights regarding cryptocurrency use, adoption trends, and user concerns from a wide range of international participants base are provided by CrossFi’s 2025 Crypto Market Research Survey. The research highlighted important factors that will shape the future of digital financial services by concentrating on demographics, financial behavior, and views toward Web3 banking. The majority of respondents—80% of whom identified as female and 20% as male—belong to Finland, Russia, and India. The majority claimed monthly salaries between $1,000 and $3,000, and the majority are between the ages of 28 and 43.
According to the report, participants’ primary source of income is cryptocurrency holdings or investments, suggesting a tendency toward long-term asset appreciation. The majority of respondents said that they used cryptocurrencies one to two times a week, indicating a slow assimilation into regular financial tasks. High transaction costs, which customers worldwide rank as their biggest obstacle, continue to be a major obstacle to broader adoption.
Safety and dependability are the most coveted attributes when it comes to Web3 banking services, according to the poll. The majority of consumers, however, said that they were only “somewhat satisfied” with their present Web3 banking experiences. While blocked accounts and challenges with KYC processes were prominent pain points, respondents cited enhanced safety as one of the primary benefits of decentralization.
Users made it apparent that they wanted further methods to incorporate cryptocurrencies into their everyday lives. The general consensus is that by 2025, cryptocurrencies will be utilized just as easily as conventional fiat money. Meanwhile, respondents’ top worries were found to be safety and cybersecurity, highlighting the need of stronger security measures in the rapidly changing digital financial environment.
