Emerging Markets Lead Global Crypto Adoption Index 2022: Report

Chainalysis published an excerpt of its upcoming report titled "2022 Geography of Cryptocurrency" on Wednesday. It highlights the company’s 2022 Global Crypto Adoption Index, which ranked all countries based on their usage of different types of cryptocurrency services, the blockchain data firm explained.

Vietnam tops the overall index list, followed by the Philippines, Ukraine, India, the United States, Pakistan, Brazil, Thailand, Russia, and China.

Chainalysis detailed:

"Overall adoption slows worldwide in the bear market but remains above pre-bull market levels."

Moreover, the blockchain analytics firm noted that "Emerging markets dominate the global crypto adoption index."

The firm explained that China finally reentered the top 10 of its global cryptocurrency adoption index this year after being placed 13th last year.

"Our sub-indexes show that China is especially strong in the usage of centralized services, placing second overall for purchasing power-adjusted transaction volume at both the overall and retail levels," Chainalysis described.

"This is especially interesting given the Chinese government’s crackdown on cryptocurrency activity, which includes a ban on all cryptocurrency trading announced in September 2021," the blockchain analytics firm said. Adding:

"Our data suggests that the ban has either been ineffective or loosely enforced."
