According to a 2020 survey in Turkey, a small number of respondents used cryptocurrencies for transactions - of which seven out ten were from Gen Y.

Unlike most other surveys - which focus on ownership - this particular survey seems to look at practical use, asking respondents whether they used cryptocurrencies for transactions or trading.
