New data highlights that Nevada is the US state showing the most interest in cryptocurrency trading, followed by California and New York respectively, according to research conducted by cryptobetting.org, a crypto education and advisory platform. Meanwhile, Mississippi, West Virginia and Louisiana are the states showing the least interest.

The study measured and compared online search interest for crypto-related terms in each US state, revealing the top states for cryptocurrency enthusiasm in 2023.

“Cryptocurrencies started 2023 at their highest levels in months,” said a spokesperson for cryptobetting.org. “Cryptocurrency offers freedoms from traditional financial infrastructure and with its constant evolution, it’s fascinating to stay up-to-date with the places that have the most interest in this space.”

1. Nevada

Nevada comes in as the state with the most interest in cryptocurrency. It scores high when you search for cryptocurrency terms, websites, apps, prices, news and advice in 2023.

The Silver State has conducted crypto-related searches at a rate of nearly 2,000 per 100,000 residents, the highest rate in the United States. In 2022, the state was announced as the “most crypto-friendly state”, according to a 2022 SmartAsset study.

2. California

California is the state that performed the second highest number of crypto searches in the US per 100,000 people. Per inhabitant, this gives just under 1,900 searches, placing it in second place on the list.

3. New York

With population proportional searches like California – just under 1,900 per 100,000 – the total crypto-related search volume of more than 360,000 ranks New York in third place.

Considered the financial capital of the United States and the home of Wall Street, it is perhaps little surprise that cryptocurrency trading is proving so popular in the state.

Floridians searched for crypto terms at a rate of just over 1,750 per 100,000 members of the population. A total search volume of just under 370,000 actually puts the Sunshine State in third place in terms of pure searches, while its proportional crypto interest makes it sixth on this list.
