Of 849 American voters, 533 have a negative view of virtual assets.

A CoinDesk-commissioned Public Opinion Strategies survey of 1,000 randomly selected registered U.S. voters found that 533 of the 849 respondents who answered the crypto-perception question (62.8%) held unfavorable views, versus 316 (37.2%) with favorable impressions; the remaining 151 either did not answer or withheld judgment, so the 533 negative responses do not represent 63% of the full sample. The poll asked respondents to briefly explain what drove their positive or negative impressions, and Democratic-leaning respondents figure prominently in the breakdown. The result signals that crypto remains a net-negative issue with the U.S. electorate even as the industry pushes for friendlier policy in Washington.
