followed by the East Coast, and then the Midwest would be the most conservative group.

And actually, the data are quite the opposite.

No, it's the Midwest, and in particular, the South, that happens to be most optimistic and confident in crypto.

And I think the reason behind that is the decentralized desire.

I don't want these major institutions that are controlling everything.

And if I can find a currency that I could be investing in that is not controlled by this central government, that's actually good.

It turns out that, you know, we see some trends sort of in age groups and so forth.

Not surprising.

You would expect sort of the 25 to 35 being more likely

invested and more optimistic about it.

Of course, they don't have quite as much money as the 35 to 54 year olds, which is where a great deal of the confidence and the investment is.

And then as you get, you know, to the older group beyond that, no, I'm going to hold on to my nest egg as long as I can.

And, you know, it's just gamble money that's out there.

I think for the most part, they're using that as an investment.

You know, we see some places that accept cryptocurrency.

We here at the Wharton School, we offered a course that you could take and pay for in cryptocurrency.

It was a course on crypto.

Did it work?

Did you have any takers?

Yeah, there were lots of takers.
