France is experiencing a sudden increase in the interest of cryptocurrencies, because a third of its population now intends to buy digital parts in 2025. This represents a huge increase in potential adoption even after recent market slowdowns. The trend indicates an increasing increasing acceptance of cryptocurrencies throughout Europe with different adoption rates in different countries.
The appetite for French cryptography is carried out towards new heights
In a recent study entitled “Web3 and crypto in France and in Europe”, 33% of French users intend to buy cryptographic assets by 2025. Research, carried out by the Association for the Development of Digital Assets (Adan), indicates that what was previously indicated.
The annual report has collected the opinions of 2,000 residents of France as well as some 1,000 respondents in five other European countries.

Only 10% of French people have cryptographic assets while the interest in these assets increases in a coherent way. This positions France behind several other European nations, such as the United Kingdom (19%), the Netherlands (17%) and Belgium (17%), in real world adoption rates.
However, as enthusiastic as they are, the French are not the most enthusiastic digital money users in Europe. This bay leaf falls to the Italians with 37% of the population indicating the interest of the acquisition of Bitcoin in 2012.

Banking and financial platforms stimulate new adoption
The growing legitimacy of the cryptography sector plays a key role in the attraction of new investors. Based on research results, traditional financial platforms like Revolut have become the large bridges of the cryptocurrencies. Neobank is now used as a second acquisition platform, used by 24% of crypto users.
Laurent Ovion, the president of Adan, explained that “companies in the sector demonstrate good ambitions and strong resilience, despite continuous challenges related to financing and access to banking services.” This indicates that the sector is still developing despite the challenges encountered in traditional financial markets.
The French economic newspaper Les Echos described the results as follows: “Although the percentage of French people who have cryptocurrencies slightly decreases, almost a third of French people are willing to buy bitcoin. Cryptocurrencies have never been so popular with the French. ”

Beyond the investment: new cases of emerging use
The report informs that the adoption of cryptocurrencies goes beyond basic investment. Research determined that 48% of respondents have positive feelings towards crypto in decentralized digital identity systems. In addition, 24% support cryptocurrencies as a payment method and 22% find opportunities in decentralized finance (DEFI).
European adoption indicates that progress varied
In -depth research, which is in its fourth edition, has been carried out in collaboration with the Deloitte Professional Services Network and the multinational market research company Ipsos. Research is trying to monitor the evolution of the adoption of cryptographic assets by the broader population and to examine the dynamics of the web sector3.
