Key Takeaways

The most notable trend is the popularity of mobile wallets/apps, with 43.02% of respondents using them for crypto storage. Mobile wallets provide quick access, enabling users to manage their assets on the go, which may be particularly appealing for those who actively trade or make payments using cryptocurrency.
