Bitcoin may be for anyone, but, today, it’s not being adopted by everyone.

Across 25 countries, we asked a simple question: Who actually owns Bitcoin?

The answers reveal a clear—and uneven—pattern shaped by trust, identity, access, and need:

- ✅ Owners are more likely to be men, aged 30–44, working in the private sector

- 🇯🇵 In Japan, 88% have never owned Bitcoin

- 🇸🇻 In El Salvador, just 28% say the same

The numbers tell a powerful story.

Let’s unpack who’s in, and who’s still left out.
