Crypto Gains Ground as Inflation Hedge
Posted: Thu Sep 18, 2025 7:30 am
Hey everyone, just came across some interesting survey results from MEXC. Apparently, 46% of global investors now see crypto as a hedge against inflation—up from 29% earlier this year. It’s crazy to see how economic uncertainty is pushing people toward digital assets as a store of value.
Regionally, East Asia and the Middle East are leading the charge, with more than half of respondents in some areas viewing crypto as a financial shield. Latin America is seeing a rise in memecoin ownership, and a lot of new users are getting in for passive income rather than just speculation. South Asia’s younger crowd is driving mobile-first trading, with many seeking financial independence.
Despite all the trends, Bitcoin and Ethereum are still the favorites for most investors, and stablecoins are holding steady. Seems like crypto is slowly shifting from just a speculative tool to an actual alternative for wealth preservation.
Would love to hear what you all think—are you seeing crypto as a safe bet against inflation, or still too risky?
