Abstract:
This paper investigates the awareness of crypto currency as an investment option among financial
traders. In the rapidly evolving landscape of financial markets, crypto currencies have emerged as a
novel and potentially disruptive asset class. Understanding the extent to which traders are aware of
crypto currencies is crucial for gauging market maturity, potential adoption rates, and the need for
further education and regulatory frameworks. This study formally tests the null hypothesis (H0) that
traders are not aware of crypto currency as an investment option against the alternative hypothesis
(H1) that traders are aware of crypto currency as an investment option. Through a review of existing
literature, a proposed methodological framework for empirical testing and a discussion of potential
implications based on hypothetical findings, this paper aims to contribute to the understanding of
crypto-awareness within the trading community and its broader implications for the financial
ecosystem.
