Our crypto literacy measure is based on three questions covering basic aspects of Bitcoin. The financial literacy measure we use is based on three questions covering basic aspects of conventional finance (the "Big Three"). We find that a significant share of Canadian Bitcoin owners have low crypto knowledge and low financial literacy.
