Options in Italy to withdraw cryptocurrencies or use them for in-store purchases were most likely to be available at hostels and holiday homes in 2021. This according to information from an open-source website that tracks especially small companies on whether they have cryptocurrency solutions available to them. Note that clear figures on day-to-day payments with Bitcoin, Ethereum or Ripple are difficult to establish: This is partly due to the nature of cryptocurrencies themselves but also due to the small nature of the companies that might offer these options. In the case of Italy, it seems cryptocurrency solutions are mostly found in accommodations or in quick-service and casual dining areas, an observation that is in line from the global business types that offer crypto solutions. Note that Italy was listed as the country with the second-most businesses in the world that offered some type of cryptocurrency option, which could mean it had a large influence on those figures.

Supplementary notes
* On March 9, 2021, the source consisted of a database of 21,941 companies, which were then assigned a business type matching Statista's own categorization. Due to the size of the data set, this categorization is an ongoing process, with roughly 75 percent of all data having been assigned an industry as of the aforementioned date.
The numbers provided are Statista estimates based on information from OpenMap.org, using software from Nominatim.
The information provided here comes from an open-source platform, meaning that people can add or remove companies at their own behest. This might lead to some countries having more entries than others (e.g. the website being more known/used in country X than in country Y), or that some figures have not been updated (e.g. a company was added at some point, but the business dissolved at a later date and had not been removed from the database). Additionally, the cryptocurrency market is a volatile market that is difficult to map out. For these reasons, all figures provided are estimates and may vary in accuracy.
