The UAE leads the global fintech arena with 30.4% of its population (3 million people) owning cryptocurrency, according to recent data from Triple-A. Vietnam follows with significant growth, as 21.2% (21 million people) engage in digital currencies, surpassing Singapore's 11.1%. In the US, 15.6% of the population (53 million people) owns cryptocurrency, bolstered by regulatory milestones like the approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Iran and the Philippines also show notable adoption rates of 13.5% and 13.4%, respectively. As countries worldwide embrace digital currencies, they enhance regulatory frameworks, such as Singapore's updated Payment Services Act. While the US maintains a strict stance, it has authorized Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, with hopes for more pro-crypto policies in future elections.
