I have seen this "study" elsewhere I think, and I'm not very impressed with River's "science".

I agree with you, surveys can be very wrong depending on how they are done and then what is done to extrapolate the data. I have a simple example. If you ask how many people voted for a green party politician in a neighborhood where mostly people live who support this party, and then extrapolate this you will get very bad results. I never really liked any way of estimating crypto users that I have come across over the years. There are many bad approaches from active wallets addresses to number of users of a particular platform or platforms and services. I would say that a very low percentage of people own or use crypto still.

The fact that not everyone will tell whether they do have bitcoin or not is already a flaw in any research. I am aware that researches or surveys are only used to represent a much bigger population but as I have said, not everyone will be coming out to say whether they own bitcoin or not. They might be thinking of their safety so they want to keep their privacy intact.
