BTC Dominates New Users' Portfolios

BTC 在新用户的投资组合中占据主导地位

According to a survey by CryptoQuant, there was a growing interest in Bitcoin after the sector experienced a surge last year. The report, titled “2024 Crypto Survey: Exchange Use and Investor Behaviour,” highlighted multiple interests, areas, and trends within the industry.

CryptoQuant 的一项调查显示，继去年比特币行业经历飙升之后，人们对比特币的兴趣日益浓厚。该报告题为“2024 年加密货币调查：交易所使用和投资者行为”，强调了行业内的多个兴趣、领域和趋势。

As expected, BTC's popularity outpaced other assets due to the skyrocketing demand, especially for retail investors. Among the institutional investors, BTC was also the most sought-after asset, although XRP and ETH also attracted significant interest.

正如预期的那样，由于需求飙升，尤其是对于散户投资者来说，比特币的受欢迎程度超过了其他资产。在机构投资者中，BTC 也是最受追捧的资产，尽管 XRP 和 ETH 也引起了极大的兴趣。

Apart from stablecoins, Bitcoin remained the first crypto that was sought after by a consensus of both retail and institutional investors. In the United States, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved spot Bitcoin ETFs last year, opening a new investment avenue for traditional players. These funds attracted billions in investment, contributing to the asset's price reaching a new all-time high.

除了稳定币之外，比特币仍然是第一个受到散户和机构投资者一致追捧的加密货币。在美国，美国证券交易委员会（SEC）去年批准了现货比特币 ETF，为传统参与者开辟了新的投资途径。这些基金吸引了数十亿美元的投资，推动资产价格创下历史新高。

Amid the market frenzy, new users were quick to adopt Bitcoin in droves to participate in the sector and anticipate price peaks, leading to a diversified portfolio. The survey also highlighted the demand for Ethereum layer 2 solutions, driven by the rise in decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols. Other cryptos that were in high demand included XRP, Solana, and Ether.

在市场狂热中，新用户迅速大量采用比特币参与该行业并预测价格峰值，从而形成多元化的投资组合。该调查还强调了在去中心化金融（DeFi）协议兴起的推动下，对以太坊第 2 层解决方案的需求。其他需求量很大的加密货币包括 XRP、Solana 和 Ether。

Geographically, Asia had the highest crypto users as its youths embraced the use cases. According to the survey, the continent led with 40% of participants, while Europe and North America polled 29% and 10%, respectively. The general adoption was seen mainly across all regions due to macroeconomic factors and a need to hedge against inflation.

从地理位置上看，亚洲拥有最多的加密货币用户，因为亚洲的年轻人接受了这些用例。调查显示，非洲大陆以 40% 的参与者领先，而欧洲和北美的受访者比例分别为 29% 和 10%。由于宏观经济因素和对冲通胀的需要，主要在所有地区普遍采用。

Binance Leads Centralized Exchanges

币安引领中心化交易所

Participants indicated interest in Binance as their preferred centralized exchange in certain jurisdictions. Of 17,566 respondents, 53% used Binance as a primary exchange, while 48% held most platform assets.

参与者表示有兴趣将币安作为某些司法管辖区的首选中心化交易所。在 17,566 名受访者中，53% 使用币安作为主要交易所，而 48% 则持有大部分平台资产。

Furthermore, more than 50% of this number noted that more crypto gains were recorded from Binance. The exchange remains the largest by trading volume and is key to Bitcoin's institutional and retail value.

此外，超过 50% 的人指出，币安记录了更多的加密货币收益。该交易所仍然是交易量最大的交易所，也是比特币机构和零售价值的关键。

“Bybit, Binance, OKX, and Bitget attract a larger share of full-time traders (more than 30%). Meanwhile, Coinbase, Crypto.com, and Kraken cater primarily to part-time traders (more than 80%), reflecting their focus on casual investors. The difference could also be explained by the distinct preferences of traders in the exchange's core regions,” CryptoQuant noted in the report.

“Bybit、Binance、OKX 和 Bitget 吸引了更大比例的全职交易者（超过 30%）。与此同时，Coinbase、Crypto.com 和 Kraken 主要面向兼职交易者（超过 80%），反映出他们对休闲投资者的关注。 CryptoQuant 在报告中指出，这种差异也可以用交易所核心区域交易者的不同偏好来解释。
