Gen Z Joins the Crypto League
Per a latest report by Reuters, a growing number of Gen Z and Millennials are now turning away from traditional cash methods to adopt cryptocurrency in a new trend. The report references Kayla Triveiri as a prime example of this change, a 30-year-old woman using crypto to complete most of her daily chores.
“I used (crypto) Visa cards for literally anything that I would use a credit card for.” Says Trivieri, who works as a product lead for a blockchain and cryptocurrency company in New York City.
Triveiri makes use of a neobank to convert her crypto into stablecoins, allowing her to conduct her payments in a more efficient manner.
The Motley Fool’s report confirms a wider trend of cryptocurrency adoption among Gen Z. Nearly 42% of Gen Z and 36% of millennials are exploring cryptocurrency payments actively. The majority of them confirmed using stablecoins to make payments.
Out of these, another 40% of millennials shared that they prefer using cryptocurrency for travel and large purchases. On the other hand, nearly 39% of respondents shared how they use crypto for all their gaming purposes, as the Bitget report later confirms.
Stablecoins: The Realest Crypto Trend
Stablecoins have lately been emerging as one of the most promising offerings of the cryptocurrency domain. These crypto offerings are proving to be the most efficient tool of payment with a whopping $300B market cap.
