PANews reported on March 27 that according to Cointelegraph, a recent survey by crypto investment platform Bitpanda showed that European banks and financial institutions may have seriously underestimated the demand for cryptocurrency services, with less than one-fifth of banks and financial institutions offering digital asset products. The survey studied 10,000 retail and commercial investors in 13 European countries and found that more than 40% of commercial investors already hold cryptocurrencies, and another 18% plan to invest in the near future. However, only 19% of the financial institutions surveyed said that their customers showed strong demand for crypto products - indicating a 30% gap between actual adoption and perceived interest among investors.
