    Im not trying to be that dude but this is according to a “new survey” – The title is a little misleading because only 2 200 people got surveyed… by an investment bank 

    >The study examined the investment behaviour of 2,200 investors to better understand how they were approaching different kinds of exchange-traded products.

    >When asked where they would invest their money next year, 62% of millennials surveyed said they would invest in cryptocurrencies. American stocks and fixed-income assets were second and third, respectively.

    Millennials also bet on every pitch in a baseball game and every pass in a football game too. IOW they are going to get wrecked.
