Story Protocol CEO Seung Yoon Lee wrote that cryptocurrency is one of the few things that can bring the elderly and young together in South Korea.
According to statistics from the Korea East Asia Daily, the age structure of cryptocurrency investors in South Korea has changed significantly. The data shows that the number of investors in the 50-year-old age group increased by 56.4% year-on-year to 1.75 million; the number of investors aged 60 and above increased from 371,800 to 636,700, an increase of 52.6%.
It is worth noting that nearly half of the group holding cryptocurrency assets over 1 billion won (about the same as "giant whale" investors) are over the age of 50.
