How many Bitcoiners are casual Bitcoiners?

1855 sats \ 21 comments \ @tomlaies 2 Jul bitcoin_beginners

Maybe you know the situation. I suspect everybody who regularly goes on Bitcoin meetups knows this: A new person shows up. Maybe not a new person but someone who showed up 2 years ago once.

Or maybe people that are on Bitcoin-Twitter and have never been on a meetup. What about people that watch Youtube Bitcoin channels and never went on a meetup. Or the surprisingly high numbers of Coinbase customers.

How come? From Reddit we know that a solid 90% of people are lurkers. Is this the same for people that are Bitcoiners but have never been to a meetup or any other involvement in the scene? Maybe a little lower in out space? What do you think? What percentage of overall Bitcoiners are just casual Bitcoiners without being heavily into it?

90%+51.7%

75%17.2%

50%13.8%

25%6.9%

10%-10.3%

What do you mean I'm literally asking you to guess a statistic what would a 3 letter agency do with that lololol

Greater than 50% are casual I believe. Many are hardcore but choose to keep some distance for whatever reason (busy, privacy or some other reason).

I think its good as well to have a silent army.

0% there are no bitcoiners other than those you're already aware of.

It's an increasingly annoying answer at that...

Every bitcoiner I've met IRL is hardcore, so I say 10%-.

All those traders and investors in centralized exchanges are casual Bitcoiners.

I think there is a large spectrum of users. Some saw a YouTube video and bought it on coinbase, others might just be holding their own keys and simply living their lives.

This is what a growing user base should look like. Imagine having a bitcoin meet up in a football stadium. It would be different.

Large conferences

Something I wouldn't be interested in. Too many people, lots of noise and those looking to network. I'd prefer smaller more intimate meetups. My favorite are 1:1

You can be heavily into it without showing it in public, ya know.

Anyone who uses centralized exchanges is a casual, just look at the percentage that uses them, I think that at least more than 80% are.

IMO, around 95%
