Poll: Americans want financial innovation but trust banks over crypto

  • —65% trust banks over crypto on financial inclusion; only 5% picked crypto
  • —60% of CoinDesk respondents see crypto as a mostly negative economic force
  • —42%, roughly 112 million people, would favor a bank offering crypto services
  • —Willingness to adopt crypto rises from 36% to 56% with bank-level protections
Why it matters: Retail adoption may hinge less on new token launches than on how fast traditional banks integrate crypto access.
