 33% of young Americans plan to invest in Ethereum.

Young Americans are much more eager to invest in Ethereum, Bitcoin and other crypto currencies than the older age group. According to the results of the LendEDU survey, respondents aged 18 to 34 are much more interested in the new market than older respondents and are going to invest in crypto-currencies.

After the September survey, which investigated the interest in Bitcoin , LendEDU interviewed 1,000 American citizens regarding their knowledge of Ethereum and Ripple (the second and third positions for market capitalization), as well as for the ICO. About 32% of respondents said they heard about Ethereum, 18% said they plan to invest in this crypto currency. Twenty-two percent said they heard about Ripple and about 15% confirmed that they intend to invest in it.

Nevertheless, the results are highly distorted by age groups. Only 9% of people aged 55 and older have any plans to invest in Ethereum and only 1.3% intend to invest in Ripple.

LendEDU also asked respondents about awareness of the ICO. The results were not broken down by age group, and showed that 25% of respondents heard about the ICO, and 15% stated their intention to participate. Twenty-one percent said that they consider ICO illegal.
