Estimated number of people who hold or trade cryptocurrency in Canada from 2017 to 2023

The number of people who either used or held a cryptocurrency in Canada was ******** million higher at the end of 2023 than in 2022. This is according to Statista estimates, compiled from various reports and research. The numbers were first trialled in Statista's Crypto pulse check, a quarterly report aimed at mapping out the size and characteristics of crypto markets in 50 different countries worldwide in a cross-comparable way. The anonymity behind cryptocurrencies – a key feature in their design – makes it difficult to find reliable data on a country-level. Consequently, data research on how many people worldwide use this new form of money is in its infancy. The numbers shown here should therefore be regarded as estimates.
