Bitget Wallet, the leading non-custodial crypto wallet, has released its third Onchain Report, Crypto Payment Use Cases, providing a detailed look into how global users want to spend their digital assets.

Based on a survey of 4,599 crypto wallet users conducted in early 2025, the report highlights that gaming (36%), daily purchases (35%), and travel bookings (35%) are the top categories where users express the strongest interest in paying with crypto.

The report captures preferences across generational cohorts.

• Gen Z (aged 18–29) shows strong interest in social and entertainment-driven use cases, including gaming and gifting.
• Millennials (30–44) express more diversified use across travel, subscriptions, and digital goods.
• Gen X (45+) favors high-value or essential categories such as travel (40%), digital products, and real estate.

This distribution reflects the need for flexible and secure crypto payment experiences tailored to different life stages and priorities.

"Crypto payments are no longer a fringe behavior — they're becoming embedded in how people transact across regions and age groups," said Jamie Elkaleh, CMO of Bitget Wallet.

"What users are asking for is reliability, compatibility, and control. Whether it's a QR code at checkout or a stablecoin-powered purchase online, the expectation is that spending crypto should feel as seamless as spending cash. The challenge for wallets is to meet that expectation without compromising the principles of self-custody."
