Bitcoin (BTC)
The author of the bestselling book on the 2008 financial crisis, Too Big to Fail, says Bitcoin is part of a rebuke of big government and the elites that the public trusted to protect the economy.
According to Andrew Ross Sorkin, “All of a sudden there’s a whole group of people across the world that don’t trust central banks. They don’t trust the Federal Reserve anymore. And so they’re saying to themselves, ‘I’m going to take this thing, this digital currency, which has nobody in control of it whatsoever, and I trust that more than I trust these people at the top.'”
A new survey from YouGov shows Ethereum is the second most recognized cryptocurrency in the US after Bitcoin. The results show that overall, 79% of Americans are familiar with at least one cryptocurrency.
