Gen-Z now drives 72% of P2P crypto payments – Report
A new report from crypto exchange NoOnes reveals that Generation Z is the dominant force in peer-to-peer (P2P) crypto payments, accounting for 72% of all transfers. Millennials follow at 24%, while Gen X trails significantly at 4%. Regionally, Asia leads in P2P usage (74%), followed by Latin America (62%) and Africa (54%), with Europe and North America showing the lowest adoption rates. This trend aligns with broader crypto adoption, where the APAC region saw a massive surge in activity. The report notes that younger generations are more receptive to new technologies, and the convenience of mobile security features is driving usage. However, despite this strong adoption, P2P payment growth is being outpaced by crypto card payments, which surged 106% to $1.6 billion in the last three years compared to just 5% for P2P. While P2P is the second most dominant stablecoin payment method by value after B2B, cards are a strong third. The findings suggest that for crypto firms to scale, a mobile-first strategy is essential.
