Study: Americans trust NFT investments more than Brits
Two cryptocurrency trends stood out last year and this year: NFT and DeFi. Billions of dollars have poured into sectors that many didn't know existed before. The Piplsay platform conducted a survey among Americans and Brits to see what users thought of NFT today.
The Piplsay platform surveyed about 40,000 respondents in September: 30,870 U.S. residents and 9,170 U.K. residents. The company's specialists conceived such a survey in order to assess consumers' current attitudes toward the NFT sector, news.bitcoin reported.
Not long ago, hardly anyone would have been able to support a conversation about NFTs, as there wasn't much information about non-interchangeable tokens, and most people simply didn't know anything about them. However, 2020 and 2021 changed that. With the growth of the NFT and DeFi sectors, more and more users are becoming aware of them.

Study: Americans trust NFT investments more than Brits
Recently, several surveys were conducted with between 1,000 and 10,000 people to explain users' attitudes toward the NFT sector.
In December 2020, there was talk of a survey that showed that the NFT market had much more room to grow, and it paid off. A few months later, during the height of the NFT hype, one survey found that 3 out of 4 sports fans were skeptical about the longevity of investing in NFT.
The Piplsay survey turned out to be much larger than the aforementioned. The platform's team was able to collect data from more than 40,000 Americans and Britons.
