So, get this—a recent study from Reown and YouGov asked over a thousand crypto users in the U.S. and U.K. about their habits. Spoiler alert: there’s something brewing, and it’s not just weekend coffee.
Crypto trading? Yeah, it’s still the heavyweight champ. But payments? They’ve jumped into the ring like they own the place! Apparently, more folks are using crypto for everyday stuff now—it’s like everyone suddenly remembers that cash is so last century. I mean, who needs Bitcoin when you can just buy a sandwich with Ethereum? 🙄🥪
Jess Houlgrave, the CEO of Reown, had the gall to say AI and payments aren’t battling it out. Really, Jess? It’s like saying vanilla and chocolate ice cream serve different purposes. One’s for dessert, the other is… well, just one more thing to confuse your grandmother. Payments bring relevance, while AI is just there, looking busy, like your friend who insists they can make the world’s best guacamole but is still Googling the recipe. 🥑🤔
Users want their crypto tools to be as versatile as a Swiss Army knife. And guess what? Stablecoins are now more popular than that flashy, overhyped Solana among the younger crowd. They’re basically the new safe bet, like showing up to a party in khakis instead of sweatpants.
Yet, trading still sits at the top of the crypto hierarchy. Payments and AI are like that catchy jingle stuck in your head, hinting that maybe, just maybe, crypto will break free from the “I’m just here for the thrill” vibe and actually become functional. Wouldn’t that be something? If I could finally pay for an overpriced latte without raising an eyebrow? Truly revolutionary. ☕💸
