7 Asian Countries in Global Top 10 for Crypto Adoption, Says TRM Labs
For millions of people, crypto has shifted from a speculative asset to a critical utility.
It has become the rail for sending money home, a hedge against fragile local currencies, and a bypass for legacy financial systems that are slow, expensive, or out of reach.
This shift in behaviour is showing up clearly in the data: global retail transactions surged by more than 125% in between January to September 2024 and during the same period in 2025, signalling that individuals, not just institutions, are driving the next phase of growth.
TRM Labs’ 2025 Crypto Adoption and Stablecoin Usage report indicates Asia as the centre of gravity for this functional adoption.
