About
Cryptorefills Labs is where the data and ideas behind our mission are collected, analysed, researched, discussed and prototyped before they become part of the product. In January 2021 we opened the Labs to the outside world, to sharpen our insight and give the research more impact. They are now open to our customers, partners, stakeholders and the wider crypto community, with one goal: promoting the use of blockchain-based currencies in everyday life.
Research
Our research investigates the adoption of blockchain-based digital currencies such as Bitcoin as money and as a means of payment. Most work on this subject takes the merchant's perspective, for example the adoption, or intention to adopt, crypto payments at the point of sale.
We focus entirely on the consumer side. Investing and saving, in fiat or crypto, is a luxury few people can afford. For blockchain-based currencies to reach mass adoption they have to be used in everyday life, and that is where we concentrate our efforts. We want to understand the demographics and motivations of people spending crypto on everyday goods, their experiences and their problems. To do that we produce thematic research (for example Lightning Network adoption), user case studies and wide-scope quantitative studies such as our Global Cryptocurrency Consumer Report.
Our research has two goals. First, we use the data to improve what we offer. Second, we share the findings with the community to further the adoption of blockchain-based digital currencies.
Privacy matters to our customers, and to us. Beyond complying with EU regulation, our research follows the strictest privacy measures. You can read our privacy policy, but for the sake of clarity, we will never:
- Sell or share personal information with third parties.
- Use survey data for direct marketing.
