“Ekins sat down Reason TV to discuss the portion of the results from the April Reason-Rupe poll focused on attitudes towards, and knowledge of, the cryptocurrency bitcoin. Only 19 percent of respondents had ‘a lot’ or ‘some’ knowledge of bitcoin, but that didn’t stop 47 percent of them from saying they wanted to ban it. However, the more someone claimed to know about bitcoin, the less likely he or she was likely to want to prohibit it, with 71 percent of respondents who claimed to know ‘a lot’ about bitcoin saying it should be allowed and, on the other side of the spectrum, only 27 percent of those who claimed to ‘know nothing’ about it wishing to allow it.”
