Deutsche Bank survey shows US crypto adoption rose to 12% in March 2026, up from 7% in February.
Adoption increase coincided with $1.3 billion inflows into institutional Bitcoin ETFs and a modest Bitcoin price recovery.
Despite the rebound, consumers still prefer gold (26%) and the S&P 500 (29%) for new money over a 1‑3‑year horizon.
Bitcoin remains the dominant crypto holding (~70% of owners) but most expect its price to fall below the current $75,000 level.
