Finder Survey: Nigeria’s 24.2% Adoption Rating Is the Highest Rate of Crypto Ownership Globally

Finder Survey: Nigeria's 24.2% Adoption Rating Is the Highest Rate of Crypto Ownership Globally

According to the latest Finder Cryptocurrency Adoption Index, in October 2021, Nigeria had the highest rate of cryptocurrency ownership globally, at 24.2%.

Bitcoin Is the Most Popular Coin in Nigeria

In addition to finding the West African nation as the country with the highest proportion of citizens that hold cryptocurrencies globally, the survey also discovered that “of the 1 in 4 online adults in Nigeria who own some form of cryptocurrency, bitcoin is the most popular coin in Nigeria at 66.5% of crypto owners.” Alternatively, this means more than half of the 24.2% of Nigerian respondents that own cryptocurrencies are in fact bitcoin holders.

On the other hand, the survey findings suggest ethereum (ETH) is the second most popular coin with Nigerian cryptocurrency holders, at 23.8%. Despite this seemingly high rate of interest in ETH, the ratio of Nigerians holding this cryptocurrency relative to other countries is still lower, the survey data suggests.

In fact, according to the survey, the 23.8% ETH ownership ratio is only enough to see Nigeria being ranked the 15th country out of a total of 22 countries.

Dogecoin in Third Place

Meanwhile, the survey findings show the meme coin, dogecoin, in third place at 21.8%. This ratio in turn is enough to see Nigeria feature in the top ten. The survey report explains:

Dogecoin is the third most popular choice with crypto adopters in Nigeria, with 21.8% of adults who own crypto holding the coin. This makes it the 8th ranked country in our list of 22 countries in terms of dogecoin ownership among those that own crypto.

In terms of the makeup of cryptocurrency owners in Nigeria, the survey found 62.9% of Nigerian crypto owners to be men while women account for the remainder.

In other words, this disparity between the number of males and females that own crypto means men are 1.7 times more likely to own crypto. With the average figure globally at 1.5, this means Nigeria has the 11th highest male dominance of the 22 countries.

Kucoin Hacked for $150 Million in Bitcoin; Bitfinex and Tether Freeze $33 Million of the Stolen Funds

Cryptocurrency exchange Kucoin may have been hacked for $150 million in bitcoin and multiple ERC20 tokens. The Singapore-based exchange confirmed the September 25 security breach, but did not disclose the amount stolen. “Bitcoin, ERC-20 and, other tokens in Kucoin’s hot wallets were transferred out of the exchange,” said Kucoin in an update on Saturday. Meanwhile, Bitfinex and Tether, issuers of the centralized stablecoin USDT , immediately froze a combined $33 million worth of USDT suspected to be part of the funds looted in the Kucoin hack – an action that has stirred questions around the influence of centralized platforms. Paolo Ardoino, chief technology officer of both entities, tweeted that Bitfinex froze $13 million USDT on EOS as part of the hack. Tether froze $20 million USDT “sitting on this ethereum address as a precautionary measure,” he said. In its update, Kucoin maintains that funds in its cold wallets (offline storage, which is less susceptible to hacks) ar...
