48% of surveyed Malaysians trust bitcoin, some think prices will reach $10k

Bitcoin prices reached an all-time high this month when it soared past US$2,900 a few days ago. The astronomical rise in price coupled with the volatility of the Malaysian ringgit saw an unprecedented rise in the volume of bitcoin trading in Malaysia. At Luno, we sent out a survey to over 100,000 Malaysians to find out what they think about bitcoin.

Below are the results in an infographic on how often they use their bitcoin wallets, if they use it more as a payments system or an investment tool, whether they trust it or not, what they think about bitcoin regulation, and what they think the future bitcoin price will be.
