Yesterday, while surfing the social media that aggregate trends, Twitter, I ran into what was like a very exciting poll, the best I have seen this year.
The poll was created by International Monetary Fund (IMF) to monitor the two types of virtual currencies which are; the cryptocurrencies and the central bank digital currency.
The poll went thus;
1. Are central banks digital currency really money? The poll result was Yes (33.8%) and no (66.2%)
2. Are crypto currencies really money? The poll result was; Yes (79.9%) and no (20.1%)
What is your opinion about these polls?

Obviously the Poll take place while the Voters are from social media crypto connected ? the voters are majority comes from Crypto community ?

because if the participants comes from outside social media then for sure the result will be far different from that landslide .

But congrats to the crypto for winning this poll though i am not that happy with the result because we need real voters and not those bias in decisioning .

I also see the same thing that the poll results look biased. Because basically the Twitter account that is linked to the OP is also related to crypto. If polls are conducted in public, I'm sure there are still many who don't know what crypto is. What's more for people who lack literacy. Twitter also has an algorithm that is not much different from other social media in terms of account relations. So I don't really believe the poll results either. But for myself, crypto is money as long as it is able to be a trusted tool in the payment of any transaction, even though crypto has a uniqueness that fiat doesn't have, namely that nothing regulates it apart from supply and demand for it.
