Brazil is the world’s #1 country in crypto adoption in the Chainalysis 2026 index. 🔥

It outranked the United States, India, and Nigeria.

And the detail is that it wasn’t because of a single criterion.

Brazil ranks 3rd in total volume, 4th in retained balance, 3rd in P2P economy, and 2nd in cross-border flow.

In other words, adoption is widespread. Institutional volume, people holding, people transacting among themselves, and people moving money abroad.

The US leads in volume and balance, but drops to 20th place in P2P. There it’s an ETF market and an institutional desk—less everyday use.

Brazil is one of the few countries that scores high on both ends at the same time.
