What's up Steemit?

Cryptocurrency has gained such popularity recently that the Coinbase app surpassed the Youtube app on the charts! It really makes you wonder....

Who is the average cryptocurrecny user?

The investor:

The reality is that the average cryptocurrency user is an investor and speculator. A person who buys in hopes to make gains and typically does not spend the currency on a product or service. In the last year the hype has been real! The popularity made people buy in and hold in hopes for major gains.

The spender:

The average person who is using crypto as an actual currency for product or service more than likely on average is in the east in Europe or Asia spending money across seas and borders. It is gaining momentum in the west and with the staff of companies and exchanges coming up all over the world, we are beginning to see a real diverse group involved in crypto.

With that being said it is becoming harder and harder to put "crypto users" into a category. It is now being accepted in the masses as a normal thing, which is exciting. To the moon!!!
