What Happened
About 4 percent of the people surveyed said they have—or know of someone—who quit their jobs at some point over the last year due to the financial freedom unlocked by cryptocurrency investment, CIVIC Science said, citing its survey.The results are based on 6,741 responses collected between Oct. 20 and Oct. 27. Interestingly, a majority of those who quit were from the lowest income bracket, with about 64 percent earning less than $50,000, the survey revealed.
