In fact, many people who hold gold do so indirectly through ETFs or jewelry—did this statistic not count those?

I feel like there are definitely more people around me who trade crypto than people who buy gold bars, but the statistics range may be different.

Comparing the number of gold and BTC holders is pretty interesting, but after all, gold is a physical asset, so you can’t really compare it directly, right?

Is this data real or fake? I remember that people holding BTC weren’t that many before.

Are Bitcoin holders more than gold? Does that mean more people are starting to trust digital assets?

49.6M vs 28.8M—it's almost double, so it looks like crypto adoption really is on the rise.
