It’s been another hectic year in the cryptosphere. Major players entered the space, new use cases emerged, and fresh challenges were overcome. Best of all though, we welcomed a whole host of new faces to the ever-growing crypto community.
With new faces come new voices. With new voices come new opinions about how the potential of crypto can be realised. The crypto space is a broad church, and consensus is the name of the game. In crypto, more than perhaps anywhere else, your opinion matters.
This is why, throughout the year, we run regular polls on Twitter. We canvas the crypto community on all the biggest issues facing the space, from the latest projects to the biggest misconceptions.
Here’s a snapshot of what you had to say in 2019.

When we asked you what were the major misconceptions about Bitcoin, we got an array of answers. But there was one hoary old chestnut that just doesn’t want to die, no matter how many times it’s disproved – that Bitcoin is just a tool for criminals.
