Are there any numbers on how much crypto is being used as a currency (i.e. actually buying things) vs. how much is being used as an investment (i.e. buying and holding/trading with the hope it goes up in value)?

I'm curious how each compares to traditional currency and how much this affects the competitiveness of it as a common currency. My initial thought is that so many people look at it as an investment it may limit it's ability to be a good medium for exchange.
