Singapore, which was the most crypto-friendly country as of 2021, dropped to second place, whereas the United States and Australia came third and fourth, respectively. In addition, Switzerland, Hong Kong, the Netherlands, and France have also jumped to take the next four places.
The Coincub report determined the ranking of 46 countries on the basis of several factors, such as the regulatory parameters, institutional acceptance, fraud prevention guidelines, educational courses on crypto courses, etc.
“As events develop, we go beyond legislation or pure numbers and introduce new dimensions that are crucial for defining a countries ‘crypto friendliness' or maturity,” Coincub CEO, Sergiu Hamza, explained in the press release.
