Seventy percent of 400 wealthy South Koreans surveyed have no intention to invest in cryptocurrencies for its higher risk of loss and lack of reliability in its transactions, according to a survey by KB Financial Group Research Institute.
The survey was conducted among South Koreans with financial assets of over 1 billion won.
The answers were in response to a question if they intended to invest in cryptocurrencies.
On the contrary, 60.5 percent considered stocks as a promising long-term investment option.
