As South Korea's virtual currency market expanded this year, its global adoption ranking rose four places from last year. The United States jumped to second place, fueled by the pro-virtual currency policies of the second-term Donald Trump administration.
According to the "2025 Cryptocurrency Adoption Index," released on the 4th by blockchain data analysis firm Chainalysis, South Korea rose from 19th last year to 15th overall. Chainalysis publishes an annual ranking of countries worldwide, calculating their cryptocurrency usage by weighting their centralized and decentralized service transaction volumes with per capita real GDP based on purchasing power parity (PPP).
