You can view the full study in the link below but I’ll paste a few of the highlights for you to read.

Personality, emotional, and motivational attributes
Crypto ownership is positively associated with several so-called “dark” personality characteristics including narcissism (r = .38, p < .001), Machiavellianism (r = .29, p < .001), psychopathy (r = .27, p < .001), and sadism (r = .27, p < .001). Relatedly, crypto owners also tend to score higher on measures of need for chaos (r = .35, p < .001), paranoia (r = .35, p < .001), schizotypal attributes (r = .35, p < .001), dogmatism (r = .23, p < .001), victimhood mentality (r = .18, p < .001), and psychological reactance (r = .11, p < .001).

Demographics
Respondents who own or have owned cryptocurrency were significantly younger (Mage = 38.38, SDage = 12.94) than those who have not (Mage = 52.86, SDage = 18.84), Welch’s t(1601.49) = 19.82, p < .001. As shown in Fig 2, cryptocurrency owners are largely male (r = -.24, p < .001), more educated (r = .20, p < .001), have a higher income (r = .20, p < .001), and are more religious (r = .20, p < .001) than those who have never owned cryptocurrency.
Conclusion
Finally, crypto purchasers were likely more likely to use fringe sources of information as opposed to more mainstream outlets of news. When considering all relevant variables representing demographics, thinking styles and intellectual attitudes, personality characteristics, and media environments, a profile emerged reflecting cryptocurrency owners as more likely to be male or male-identifying, have somewhat higher income, who feel victimized by a life they perceive as having been unfair, and tend to get their news information about politics, public issues, and current events from social media sources such as Telegram, YouTube, Reddit, Twitter posts, and blogs.
