Today i was just playing with Google Trends and i thought of seeing how Bitcoin was doing in google Trends. If you dont know what google trend is (Google Trends is a public web facility of Google Inc., based on Google Search, that shows how often a particular search-term is entered relative to the total search-volume across various regions of the world, and in various languages.)
I was very surprised which country searched for bitcoins the most.
Its not the US or Canada
its not China
Its not South Korea
its not even Japan
The winner is... Nigeria
Am i the only one who is surprised by this on Google trends. Below is a screen shot that i took but you can just look it up by your self on google.
Even if you search by city it still comes to Nigeria capital city of Lagos
Why are soo many people from Nigeria looking into Bitcoin. What plans do they have for bitcoins.? We clearly see there are no heavy investment coming from Nigeria.
And when you google ETH it come to Kosovo. who even know where this country is! This is a country which is not even accepted as a country by many neighboring countries.
Does any one have a good explanation of why Nigeria and Kosovo are number 1 in google trend when searched for bitcoin and Ethereum.
