Deutsche Bank: U.S. Crypto Adoption Rebounds to 12%, Bitcoin Remains Dominant

According to CoinDesk, Deutsche Bank's retail survey shows that U.S. cryptocurrency adoption rebounded to 12% in March from a February low of 7%, returning to July 2025 levels. Bitcoin ETFs recorded approximately $1.3 billion in net inflows in March, signaling a recovery in institutional demand. Despite the rebound in adoption, consumers remain cautious about Bitcoin's price outlook: 19% of U.S. respondents expect Bitcoin's price to be between $20,000 and $60,000 by the end of 2026, 13% expect it to fall below $20,000, and only about 3% anticipate a return to its historical high of over $120,000. Approximately 70% of crypto investors hold Bitcoin, far exceeding the holding rates of USDT or USDC. 69% of U.S. respondents listed Bitcoin as their top investment choice for the future, though gold and the S&P 500 remain more preferred assets overall.
