imo the best current proxy for consumer crypto users is mobile wallet users. 

while "consumer crypto" is the current buzzword, total consumer crypto users are lower than they were +2 yrs ago (24.5M then vs 23M now).

Wallets have improved and should continue to improve, but were never the real problem IMO. There just haven't been attractive use cases on the other side of wallets that warrant the gymnastics required for self-custody.
