Abstract: 
This paper provides an update on cryptoasset ownership in Canada using data from two Bank of Canada surveys conducted in 2022. We find that Bitcoin ownership declined from 13% in 2021 to 10% in 2022, and ownership of other cryptoassets also fell. These drops occurred against a background of steep price declines and an increasingly tight regulatory atmosphere for cryptoassets.
