The top 10 countries for overall cryptocurrency use:
The USA is one of the most powerful economies in the world, so it’s not surprising to see it top the list when it comes to cryptocurrency use.
Ukraine has a far less powerful economy in comparison to the USA. It is ranked as the poorest country in Europe in terms of GDP per capita.
Ukraine’s emerging market may explain its high crypto use. Many emerging markets struggle with currency devaluation, which may push residents to invest in crypto as a way to preserve their savings.
