The Netherlands briefly ranked in the top 10 of the world in terms of crypto adoption based on transaction volume, but this was no longer the case in 2023. This is according to estimates based on web traffic toward individual websites that are used to perform cryptocurrency transactions. The main area of use for crypto in the Netherlands is Decentralized Finance protocols, reinforcing observations that the Netherlands mostly sees crypto as an investment tool.

Supplementary notes
All figures have been collected by Statista.
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.
