I dont, if I were to take a guess, I'd suggest upper working/lower middle. I think there is probably a bigger difference in age than economic class.
Yes, I think thats true in the West, where people dont actually
use bitcoin/crypto much, they just buy and sell it. Outside the west tho, bitcoin is valued a lot more for its properties than for its fiat value alone. The fact that you dont need a bank account or ID which can be difficult to come by, you dont need approval to use it means that many more people can access it, and its more secure than cash. Its also very simple to send remittances with - you can send small (or even large) amounts bitcoin for pennies instantly anywhere in the world without identity checks, banks accounts etc, means that ex-pats from third world countries working in the West for higher, but sometimes under the table, wages can send money back to their families without jumping through hoops or paying through the nose for that service.
Good lord, no - I didnt work all this out by myself.
Most discussion tends to take place within DAOs on discord, influenced by articles or podcasts. There isnt really a crypto equivalent of U75 that I know of, except perhaps
Bitcoin Talk, but tbh, its been getting shittier for years (good source of mining info, but not much good for anything else now). Crypto-twitter is probably the central hub, you just have to navigate your way around all the "crypto will make you a millionaire" trash first, there is a bit of a move towards
Lens Protocol, esp now that twitter is a binfire. A lot of the serious writing happens on
Mirror (web3 equivalent of Medium), the
journal of Crypto, Culture and Society is worth a look at.
Thing is crypto is so much bigger and diverse than I think most people here imagine. Its like an iceberg- the stuff above the surface is all "
trade your way to $1m in 3 weeks!!!" and "
join this awesome crypto scheme and make $1000 per day!!!", underneath that surface there is a tonne of stuff happening, hundreds of thousands of DAOs springing up trying to solve every problem imaginable. Most will fail, but that failure is what teaches us what to avoid when we build back better.
