Crypto apps hit 500 million downloads per year
Crypto apps are firmly back in demand after two years of decline, with global downloads surging to 495 million in 2024, according to data from the Crypto App Report.
It marks the strongest year the sector has ever recorded and signals a clear return of mainstream interest, driven by renewed trading activity, rising retail participation and a broader recovery across the digital asset market.
Binance was the most downloaded app by a factor of two, while popular derivative trading exchanges Bybit and OKX came second and third in total downloads. Coinbase and Crypto.com were the two most popular crypto exchanges in the United States, and had similar global downloads.
