Awareness Of Crypto Currency As An Investment Option Among Traders: An Empirical Investigation

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.
