## Resource

Professor Vikramaditya Khanna (University of Michigan Law) shares findings from a new study exploring U.S. attitudes toward cryptocurrency—what people think crypto is for, what motivates them to pay attention, and what holds them back. The conversation breaks down the gap between hearing “about crypto” and truly understanding the underlying tech.
