Investors in the United States are more interested in Bitcoin now than they were a year ago, in part due to the coronavirus pandemic, a recent survey published by Grayscale reveals.

1,000 American investors between the ages of 25 and 65 took part in the survey and showed that most Bitcoin investors are employed, college-educated, male and younger. Investors interested in Bitcoin often describe their strategies as "aggressive" and are actively seeking new opportunities.

Comparing survey results to results from a similar Grayscale survey last year, familiarity with Bitcoin is up 9% and interest in the cryptocurrency is up 19%. Notably, 63% of new Bitcoin investors said the coronavirus pandemic impacted their decision to invest and 39% said the pandemic made Bitcoin more appealing.
