this indicates that on the continent of Asia, the use and popularity of bitcoin is not only concentrated in one country. even developing countries like India and Indonesia have started to use this technology. in contrast to developed countries, it is clear that they have a large transaction volume, because that is where large investors live and carry out transactions.

The data isn't appropriate with the context of countries. Exchangers in a country  showing reports on that country but in that exchanger, huge foreigners trade daily. So the reports aren't actual, the reports only show the exchanger which country is located.
It seems that you don't understand the content of the topic presented, indeed the topic title looks provocative. The OP only deals with Localbitcoin exchanges all the time, does not deliver the entire data based on popular exchanges. The data is based on the initial transaction in Localbitcoin until 27th July 2018, you must see it here: Local Bitcoins Volume: Dates period - From beginning of time to 27th July 2018

I think in China there are other cryptocurrencies that are more popular than bitcoin. Many sell and buy Bitcoin outside cryptocurrency exchanges, so statistics are not the most accurate

Yes The United States is the first with $1.44 Bn (22.77%) and the 2nd is Russia with $1.05 Bn (16.55%). The United Kingdom the 3rd with $738 M (11.67%) and Venezuela the 4th with $707M (11.18%). China is the 5th with $622M (9.83%)

It is really weird that China is in 5th place
Asia is the continent with the biggest highest trading volume $2.07 Bn and so far more than $6.5 Bn has been traded on localbitcoins

Maybe china in 5th place because china government still not lift the ban. I think if china government lift that ban, crypto transaction will be growing significant. China is biggest economic country in the world right now and i am believe china will dominate transaction in the future

hmm i think china is the country with the highest trading volume in the world, but im wrong, the US is the country with highest volume trading

which countries are the highest trading countries, so the quality has indeed increased. but with that sometimes bitcoin is banned because according to them it's negative, even though that fact isn't. bitcoin is indeed down, but that doesn't mean we call it fraud.

You realize of course that the volume we're talking is all time, right?
Because if we talk about last week:
China 700 BTC:
https://coin.dance/volume/localbitcoins/CNY/BTC
Peru (lol)  143
https://coin.dance/volume/localbitcoins/PEN/BTC

So 100 BTC per day...is not that impressive

And I wouldn't call localbitcoins an indicator
In Europe where you have access to SEPA and fast transactions, it makes no sense to deal with strangers and on top of that pay extra for.....nothing.
Right now the best I could sell my coins for is ~4190, not a great deal isn't it?

Do realise that, yes, and no, it's not an impressive volume at all but I still think X volume of P2P is somewhat worth more than X volume of exchange trading. It's actual people buying and selling Bitcoin on P2P, least from my experiences, even get questions from potential buyers and all that. I'm not 100% sure of what kind of trading/speculating happens on exchanges and there's enough (circumstancial) evidence online to show that exchanges aren't very honest about what they report.

I still sell/buy BTC on LBC and Bisq, even with SEPA options available. Yes agree the rates on guys like Bitpanda are usually better/higher than LBC but there's still some benefit of p2p like bisq where there's a bit less risk involved with multisig escrow for example. I like some of the guys I use like Bitpanda or Coindeal but there's always that nagging feeling one day they'll screw me over (plus they have limits for me that I'll just about reach next year).

More than two thirds of the Russian Federation is on the Asian continent actually, and in the days of the Soviet Union, even maybe close to 85%? Still, most of developed Russia and certainly, where the trading happens, is in European Russia.

75% of the population lives in European Russia and Moscow has always been called an European city.
No matter what territory sits in Asia it's still considered a European country by almost everybody except the author here:P


Haha yeah I know, but perhaps author wasn't informed the Soviet Union dissolved Wink

Well to begin with even that the soviet union no longer exists. Russia still has more territories in the Asian continent than on the European continent. It do es not matter where the majority of population lives... You guys should check a map and see for your selves is not that hard. Or visit Wikipedia to get more information nevertheless since Russia has territories in both continents can be called a Eurasian country... do not believe me? well google it

           It is hard to say  which country has the highest trading volume of Bitcoin in the world .The top 5 countries that are having trade in Bitcoin is USA ,Russia ,U.K , Venezuela ,and China .Even though Chain is said to be banned in China it holds the fifth place in Bitcoin trading .People mostly turns towards Bitcoin due to the economic uncertainty of their country .USA has the first trading volume of Bitcoin compared to other countries .

Previously, the official foreign exchange rate was about 250,000 bolivars to one U.S. dollar. But on the black market, a dollar cost upwards of 3.5 million bolivars.

So it makes sense sending something that can be changed ar black market rates in bolivars.

That is all true  bro, that explains why Venezuela is in 4th place

I think this is not accurate as we don't know where is their data came from and also we don't know if their validation is really reliable like i wonder why is it that South Korea is not in the list to think that they also contributed big in the crypto and also why Japan is not belong in the top ranks to think Bitcoin is already treated as real currency in Japan.

You don't know where the data came from?
Did you bother to open the link and look at the picture?

It says there clearly....LolcaBitcoins all time data!



And those two countries are not there because people don't deal over LB in those countries! Simple as that!

Now, what I do not understand is why venezuela has become so popular and other countries with regimes as bad as not. Is it a matter of communication or popularization in these countries? Especially in African countries where the number of smartphones increases in a much larger proportion than the number of bank accounts.

Or maybe it is because of cheap electricity. This would boost local commerce as it would supply and demand Bitcoins locally.

The only theory from thousands I've heard that makes sense would put the "blame" on the large diaspora of Venezuelans taking refuge in both US and Spain (yup Spain) as they have the means to send back home money (bitcoins).

In case of other countries with such regimes like Zimbabwe, the ones fleeing don't really have the means to get to a better country and get a decent job that would allow them to send money back home.

Furthermore, in the case of Venezuela, it's not a wise choice to send US dollars because of their official and black market rate, the banks will convert the $ at a much lower rate.

Guys, just stop with this whole China is the biggest, greatest, bla bla bla
China had just overinflated numbers in shady exchanges like okcoin and huobi and others, in reality, usage and trading is well below European countries.

i am not saying that China is superpower regarding crypto usage , only thing that i know is that China and crypto has been overhyped in media and the news are extremely different on daily basis. I just dont know what exactly is going on there.

I have to note that fake volumes are  not a charesteristic of China exchnage,s it is huge problem in other regions also. Absically it shows the lack of regualtions in these regions because , it is illegal to show fake volume.

It is possible to extract a lot of information from these graphs. But not what the OP wants to demonstrate.

Having venezuela as a great Bitcoins negotiator could be one of the best studies on the use case of cryptocurrencies. The ability of Bitcoin and the Internet to be resistant to authoritarian governments. The willingness of citizens to find alternative ways to save value when they do not trust government.

There are few ways you can save value without having to trust another entity. You will hardly be able to keep gold or silver at home and trade cash when you need to buy food.

Well, I think it is because mining bitcoins in Venezuela it is almost for free something like $0.2 or $0.1 cents per kilowatt-hour. In the USA, a kWh costs $0.12 on average so if you have a lot of money and you want to invest in Venezuela the most reasonable thing to do is Bitcoin mining plus there is a lot of high quality and cheap workforce, technicians and software engineers that can do all the work for you. So no wonder that the country is a paradise for bitcoin entrepreneurs

paper money is going away
These five countries are very influential countries when the government starts issuing regulations regarding cryptocurrency
the news will be very sensitive when the issue of cryptocurrency is combined with the politics of these five countries, it means that price controllers may come from these five countries or maybe they are the ones who control the current prices

The US is very extraordinary, I think that US will win to adopt Bitcoin, China has a problem with Bitcoin legality, but, in reality, they are very greedy and a lot of public demand for Bitcoin, on the other side, they are also still worried about government restrictions. and they are more focused on investing and mining, not trading.

Venezuela is a country in the midst of inflation and currency in this country gradually becoming worthless. Every citizen in this country realizes that crypto is essential to change everything. I believe that FIAT will lose its value and Crypto will gradually replace it in the future.
