In 2023, Argentina was close to reaching the top 10 of the world when it comes to crypto adoption based on transaction volume. This is according to estimates based on web traffic toward individual websites that are used to perform cryptocurrency transactions. A significant stand-out for Argentina, when compared to countries like Brazil or Mexico, is the importance of P2P exchanges. The South American country is known to receive millions worth of remittances and industry experts believe this practice impacts the use of crypto in Argentina.

Supplementary notes
The source explains that its index is calculated using five different sub-indices, which are estimated using an individual country's cryptocurrency transaction volume in different situations. These estimates are based off web traffic patterns from individual websites that are used for such transactions and/or protocols.
Several changes were made to the source's methodology over the years. In 2022, the main change involved the inclusion of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) transaction volume. Centralized and Decentralized sub-indices both count equally to the overall index.
