U.S. is the top source of web traffic to cryptocurrency exchanges

The U.S. is the number one source of traffic to cryptocurrency exchanges, according to research by OKEx Senior Researcher Lora Kong. The report analyzed the traffic changes of the 53 most frequently used cryptocurrency exchanges across 185 countries. The U.S. accounted to 14.2 percent, while Russia trailed with 7.4 percent, Brazil with 6.1 percent, Turkey with 5.4 percent and China with 5.1 percent. The report also notes that traffic from China could actually be higher than that from the U.S., as the trading volume coming from apps used by Chinese traders is four times that on the web, while the data in the report is mainly based on web traffic.
