Huobi: crypto investing information channels 2022

Investors on crypto trading platform Huobi were more likely to ask friends or family for information on cryptocurrencies than their direct financial advisors. The most quoted channels of information on crypto, however, were social media and the news - although the source does not provide additional details on what social media platforms are often used or what news type (financial news papers, online, offline, etc.) is preferred. The source also did not provide information on where its respondents came from. Most visitors to the Seychelles-based cryptocurrency trading platform in 2022 came from Russia and Ukraine, despite that the exchange was originally founded in China.
