- Donald Trump is the second most popular search, while Breaking News comes in third. Student loans and car insurance are also among the most searched terms.
Daniel Larsson, Senior Editor at Tradingbrowser.com said:
“Bitcoin has surpassed highly searched items such as religion, child support, health care and politics, which is a clear sign of widespread interest among Americans, especially in Nevada.
Interest in Bitcoin in Nevada can be attributed to the state’s gambling reputation, low tax burden and innovative spirit, as Nevada is currently home to many high-tech companies, including Tesla’s Gigafactory.
Our data also reveals that Bitcoin is more popular than highly searched items such as guns, exercise, donuts, coca cola, student loans and car insurance, which is very interesting. These are household items in the US and clearly indicate that Bitcoin is no longer a niche investment option and has gained mainstream appeal.
It is also notable that Donald Trump, the former US president, is the second most popular search term, while Breaking News comes in third. This indicates that public figures and current events still have a significant influence on search behavior in the US.
However, even these highly searched terms fall behind the popularity of Bitcoin, suggesting that the digital asset has become a major player in the public consciousness.”
