Among investors who work with a financial advisor, 39% said their advisor recommended they purchase crypto, nearly double the 19% who said the same three years ago. The Ontario Securities Commission said in its new report that crypto appears to be an emerging trend among Canadian investors. Still, the survey also found that many respondents misunderstood crypto and how they are regulated, whether they are insured, and how the transactions actually work. Nevertheless, more than half of Canadians (52%) now believe that crypto will play a role in the country's financial system in the future, up from 34% in 2023. A total of 38% of people who said they're aware of crypto indicated that they were highly likely to buy Bitcoin or another digital asset in the future, an 18-percentage point increase from 2023. Lastly, one-third of Canadians (34%) said they had heard of stablecoins, which are cryptocurrencies tied to another asset, typically the U.S. dollar. Bitcoin is trading at $64,800 U.S. on July 30.
