Crowd for Angels<\/a> recently received almost 1,400 responses to its latest survey on investment attitudes towards the crowdfunding and crypto\/blockchain markets. The data shows some interesting trends which may well guide towards what will happen over the coming 12 months.<\/p>\n

Overall, investor appetite for new investments seems to remain high, with 85% of survey respondents saying that they are considering investing in a company within the next 12 months. Attracted to opportunities in the market, over the past year 60.6% of investors have increased the level of their investing, with only 16.7% having reduced their outlay.<\/p>\n

Has your level of investing increased or decreased in the last 12 months?<\/h4>\n

\"Chart<\/p>\n

Unsurprising for crowdfunding investors, 74.3% said that one of the main reasons they invest is due to the potential for high returns. Just under a third of people invest as they look to gain access to projects in the early days, with a quarter investing in order to support new companies.  With stock markets highly valued and interest rates on offer at the high street banks remaining near all time lows, 22% of crowdfunding investors are looking for pension growth.<\/p>\n

When looking for potential investments research is key, with only 14.5% of those surveyed saying they relied solely on third-parties. Almost a third make a judgement based on their own skills, with 53.4% using a combination of both methods.<\/p>\n

Do you rely on third-party research or conduct your own?<\/h3>\n

\"Chart<\/p>\n

Once a company has successfully raised funds 51.6% of investors feel that the delivery of initial targets is important to them, with one investors<\/a> commenting, \u201cthe difficult work begins once the fund are raised\u201d. <\/em>Also important, 56.9% of those surveyed were hoping for transparency from the management team and 42.8% are looking for good communication.<\/p>\n

Moving to the crypto sector and the survey showed just how ingrained within the investment industry cryptocurrencies are becoming, with 58.4% of investors saying they would prefer to pay in crypto when making an investment compared to just 18.9% who would to prefer to pay in fiat. Banking & Finance is the sector best suited to the blockchain according to 33.5% of our respondents, with the Internet of Things a close second with 24.8% of votes.<\/p>\n

What sector do you believe is best suited by the Blockchain?<\/h3>\n
