Research: 27% of Americans support government recognition of Bitcoin as a lucrative business.

A new survey from Golden Financial shows that 27% of Americans support the government's recognition of Bitcoin as a viable option. A survey by research and data analytics firm YouGov found that 11% of respondents "supported" the idea that Bitcoin should be used for profit in the United States, and 16% "supported" it. The election, which polled 4,912 Americans, showed Democrats to be more supportive than Republicans. About 29% of Democrats said they had little or no support for recognizing BTC as fiat, compared to 26% of Republicans. Respondents aged 25 to 34 supported BTC as a positive result, with 44% of respondents supporting it. (Co-manager)
