It is difficult to give an exact figure, but a reasonable estimate can be made.

According to 2024 data:

  • The world population is approximately 8 billion.

  • It is estimated that around 500 to 600 million people have invested in or own cryptocurrencies, according to reports from platforms like Crypto.com and Chainalysis.

⚠️So:

8 billion - 600 million = about 7.4 billion people
have not yet invested in crypto.

This represents approximately 92 to 93% of the world's population.

By 2024, approximately 659 million people worldwide owned cryptocurrencies, or about 8.2% of the global population. Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
