Revealed: Countries with the Highest Cryptocurrency Ownership, 2024

A recent report by CEOWORLD magazine has ranked countries based on their cryptocurrency ownership rates. The study found that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has the highest percentage of its population who own crypto, with almost 30.39% of the UAE’s total population owning crypto. This is largely due to the country’s favorable regulations towards blockchain technology, and the use of cryptocurrency is legal. Vietnam ranks second-highest among countries with the highest cryptocurrency ownership, with almost 21.19% of the total population owning crypto. The rapid digitization of the economy in Vietnam is responsible for the surge in crypto ownership across the country.

It is worth noting that if we were to rank countries based on the number of people who own cryptocurrency, India would come in first place with 93 million crypto owners, followed by China with 59 million, and the US with 52 million crypto owners coming in third place.
