It is clear that even Russian investors are also highly interested in cryptocurrencies. In fact, they are even more interested to invest in cryptocurrencies than in gold and foreign exchange.
In a recent survey conducted by Russia’s Association of Forex Dealers (AFD), a local self-regulatory organization focused on the forex market, 77% of Russians are inclined to try crypto rather than traditional investment products.
The organization has polled 502 Russian investors to closely examine their sentiments about their investment preferences. The survey was conducted from August 4 to 24.
What did the survey reveal?
Around 77% of the respondents say that they prefer Bitcoin, Ether, and Litecoin because of the top crypto’s big potential, while 14% said they still prefer forex investments. Around 8.8% say they will invest in gold.
Some 23% of the respondents have never used cryptocurrencies, while over 77% of them admit that they are considering investing in crypto soon. Around 15% are undecided while 7.6% completely rejects crypto as a viable investment.
Evgeny Msharov, Association of Forex Dealers head, said that the survey has proved that the popularity of crypto has already reached the Russian investors.
It also revealed that most Russian investors are now recognizing crypto as a viable investment, instead of a “hype product” that would fizzle out soon.
5th most popular investment tool
In a separate survey conducted by the Világ Arany Tanács last year, it found that cryptocurrencies were the fifth most popular investment tool in Russia. The savings account was at the top of the list, followed by foreign currencies, real estate, and life insurance.
As for AFD’s survey results, they will be submitted to the Bank of Russia and the State Duma Committee on Financial Market. As of now, Russia’s central bank remains cautious about crypto, primarily because of their volatility.
