Cryptocurrencies have become one of the most popular topics in the world post-pandemic.
Indians are leaving the rest of the world behind when it comes to cryptocurrency mass adoption, even as investors are still awaiting the official verdict on cryptocurrency exchanges in the country. A study conducted by the portal BrokerChoose’s annual crypto proliferation index reveals that at over 10 crores, India has the largest number of crypto owners in the world followed by the US and Russia.
As a percentage of the population, India has the fifth-highest rate of crypto owners at 7.3%. This index is topped by Ukraine at 12.73%, followed by Russia at 11.91%, Kenya at 8.52%, and the US at 8.31%. Still, most Indians don’t know about the crypto personalities or crypto brand ambassadors of India representing the Indian crypto market globally at this moment.
