Gareth Jenkinson9 hours agoIndia, Nigeria, Thailand top Chainalysis’ 2023 Global Crypto Adoption IndexChainalysis’ upcoming Global Crypto Adoption Index indicates that the broader Asia region is driving grassroots cryptocurrency adoption.2910 Total views16 Total sharesListen to article 0:00NewsJoin us on social networksIndia, Nigeria and Thailand are ranked as the top three countries in Chainalysis’ “2023 Global Crypto Adoption Index,” with lower middle-income (LMI) nations leading the way in the grassroots adoption of cryptocurrencies.


The blockchain analytics firm released an excerpt from the report showing that central and south Asia and the wider Oceania regions dominate the top of its index, with six of the top 10 countries in this part of the world.


The index highlights that worldwide grassroots cryptocurrency is down as a whole in the wake of the FTX implosion of 2022. However, lower-middle-income countries, identified under the World Bank’s classification of nations by wealth, have shown the strongest recovery in grassroots crypto adoption over the past 12 months.“In fact, LMI is the only category of countries whose total grassroots adoption remains above where it was in Q3 2020, just prior to the most recent bull market.”


Chainalysis goes on to highlight a number of promising aspects that could be derived from this data, highlighting that nations in the LMI category typically have growing industries and populations and account for more than 40% of the world’s population.“If LMI countries are the future, then the data indicates that crypto is going to be a big part of that future.”


The excerpt also suggests that institutional adoption driven by organizations in high-income countries is gaining pace despite a prolonged bear market. The report also predicts a potential “bottom up and top down” adoption of cryptocurrencies where these assets serve the needs of users from both high-wealth and developing nations.


India remains the largest cryptocurrency market in the region and leads grassroots adoption, according to Chainalysis’ index. It has also become the second-largest crypto market by raw estimated transaction volume globally, ahead of other major economies.


Chainalysis also notes India’s unique tax deducted at source scheme applied to cryptocurrency transactions, which requires a 1% tax be levied for all transactions that must be deducted from the user’s balance at the time of the trade for it to be completed.
