In March 2025, ChatGPT’s mobile app recorded over 64.26 million App Store and Google Play downloads worldwide. The ChatGPT platform was launched on November 30, 2022 and has attracted global attention and interest. It has led the global artificial intelligence push with its chatbot format, transforming industries like online search. On May 19, 2023, the artificial intelligence and machine learning laboratory OpenAI launched its popular ChatGPT mobile app on iOS for the United States market, generating over four million downloads already during its first month on the Apple App Store.  As OpenAI made the app available to other markets in June 2023, the number of downloads reached over 14 million downloads.

Price comparison and price change of the top 100 crypto as of April 25, 2025

Bitcoin ranked as one of the most expensive cryptocurrencies existing by April 2024 - although values changed noticeably. Bitcoin had the most expensive cryptocurrency for a while, but Ethereum was significantly cheaper, with a price that was roughly 30 times less than that of the most well-known digital currency. However, Bitcoin is in a unique position. Ethereum is one of several cryptocurrencies, for instance, that come from blockchains that focus on making financial applications possible.

When one categorizes the different types of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin stands out as it is one of the few that are essentially meant to store digital value. Some describe Bitcoin as a digital version of gold, purely designed to hold or possibly purchasing power over time. It has no other applications built around it, and is considered too slow to perform financial transactions.

Many coins in this ranking stand out as their price seemingly has not changed as much as others. This is because these are stablecoins - cryptocurrencies pegged to the price development of an external asset. This group of digital assets comprise an increasing share within the overall crypto market. Some see these coins as the future of retail payments, whereas others view these coins as a "safe" addition to their crypto investments.

Global cumulative installed wind power capacity 2001-2024

The cumulative capacity of installed wind power worldwide amounted to approximately 1,136 gigawatts in 2024. Onshore wind power accounted for the majority of total wind power capacity, at about 1,052 gigawatts that year.

The largest wind power market in the world is China, with a capacity of over 470 gigawatts of wind power installed as of end of 2023. China’s wind potential is remarkable due to a large land mass as well as a long coastline. China has set ambitious goals for adding offshore wind capacity, and offshore development has progressed quickly in the last years.

Emerging markets such as those in Latin America and Southeast Asia are expected to drive the upcoming wind development market. Additional government support and policies will allow for faster market growth in these regions. Global wind energy generation as a share of total generation continues to grow as technologies become more cost-effective.

Revenue of the U.S. video game industry 2017-2025

In January 2025, the retail gaming revenue in the United States amounted to 7.54 billion U.S. dollars. When looking at particular segment revenues, accessories were the lowest-performing segment at retail overall, while video gaming content accounted for the gross of consumer spending.

More than four in ten U.S. gamers across all platforms were willing to spend a maximum of 41 to 60 U.S. dollars on a video game. A November 2022 survey found that more than four in ten PC and console gamers stated so, while over three in ten mobile-only gamers said they only played free games. Console gamers were most comfortable spending money on their hobby at this price point. In 2023, total U.S. consumer spending on video game content amounted to 57.2 billion U.S. dollars, a one percent increase from 56.6 billion U.S. dollars in the preceding year.

What is very specific to the industry at large is that the highest monthly revenues occur around the holiday season in November and December of each year. The entire market revolves around maximizing sales during the season, and most new game releases of high-budget, high-profile titles (so-called AAA games) are planned shortly before the winter holidays. Many of these annual blockbuster releases see releases from late Q3 onwards: EA Sports FC usually releases in late September, and new games in Activision Blizzard’s Call of Duty series are launched between late October and early November.

For the holiday season 2023, blockbusters Baldur’s Gate 3 and Starfield had already started the season of major video game releases. Other AAA titles that are also taking advantage of the Christmas shopping release window are the Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty DLC, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 as well as the Nintendo Switch release of Hogwarts Legacy and the PS5 port of mobile gaming title Honkai Star Rail by Genshin Impact publisher MiHoYo.

Gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate in China 2014-2030

According to preliminary figures, the growth of real gross domestic product (GDP) in China amounted to 5.0 percent in 2024. For 2025, the IMF expects a GDP growth rate of around 3.95 percent. 

The current gross domestic product is an important indicator of the economic strength of a country. It refers to the total market value of all goods and services that are produced within a country per year. When analyzing year-on-year changes, the current GDP is adjusted for inflation, thus making it constant. Real GDP growth is regarded as a key indicator for economic growth as it incorporates constant GDP figures. As of 2024, China was among the leading countries with the largest gross domestic product worldwide, second only to the United States which had a GDP volume of almost 29.2 trillion U.S. dollars. The Chinese GDP has shown remarkable growth over the past years. Upon closer examination of the distribution of GDP across economic sectors, a gradual shift from an economy heavily based on industrial production towards an economy focused on services becomes visible, with the service industry outpacing the manufacturing sector in terms of GDP contribution.

Another important indicator for economic assessment is the balance of trade, which measures the relationship between imports and exports of a nation. As an economy heavily reliant on manufacturing and industrial production, China has reached a trade surplus over the last decade, with a total trade balance of around 992 billion U.S. dollars in 2024.

Cinema attendance in the United Kingdom 2001-2024

Throughout 2024, cinemas across the United Kingdom sold approximately 126.51 million tickets, up from 123.62 million movie tickets a year earlier. Yet the 2024 figure is still under the number of admissions recorded in 2019: in the last year before the COVID-19 outbreak, movie theaters in the UK sold more than 176 million tickets.

Despite the decrease in the number of movie tickets sold since the coronavirus spread, the average price of a cinema admission in the UK reached 7.73 British pounds in 2024. But this was not enough to push the British box office revenue even further. In 2024, the figure stood at about 978 million pounds, less than the 1.25-billion-pound box office revenue recorded in 2019.

According to another source, the United Kingdom/Ireland region is among the top five box office markets worldwide, with a revenue of approximately 1.36 billion U.S. dollars in 2024. Yet the impact of British cinema knows no boundaries. That same year, the global box office revenue of films made in the UK added up to 6.1 billion dollars, almost the double of the 3.4 billion dollars amassed in the previous year.

Grocery retailer market share Australia 2024

The Woolworths Group held the largest share of the grocery retail market in Australia as of May 2024, with a share of 38 percent. Woolworths' major competitor, the Coles Group, came in second with a little over a quarter of the market share. Aldi and IGA remain behind their competitors, with shares of 10 percent or less of the market. 

While physical stores remain the most prevalent grocery shopping channel among Australians, online grocery shopping has become increasingly popular across Australia recently as consumers and grocery retailers were forced to adapt to the pandemic. Online grocery shopping has gained momentum, with around one-third of Australian consumers reporting shopping for groceries mainly in-store and partly online and just over 13 percent mainly online or exclusively online. The most common online grocery purchases made by consumers in Australia in 2022 included dry goods, such as pasta and rice, sweets and snacks, and dairy products.

Price rises continue to be witnessed across many grocery product categories in Australia, with bread and cereal products accounting for the largest annual price increase. As a result of rising grocery costs, an increasing number of Australian households cite grocery expenses as a major source of stress. To lessen the impact of cost-of-living pressures, many shoppers are adopting strategies to reduce their grocery bills, such as searching for deals and specials when shopping.
