Global cryptocurrency interest continues to grow, and is being propelled by discussion of mainstream companies, research from GlobalData suggests. The company monitored Twitter conversations about “crypto” and found influencer conversations have risen 200 percent during 2021’s first half.
PayPal was most mentioned in influencer conversations on Twitter, after its March announcement it would allow Bitcoin and Ethereum payments on its platform. The chatter saw another spike in May after its Q1 revenue rose 31 percent YOY to $6.03 billion.
Mastercard and Coinbase were the next most popular. Mastercard got a bump in February after it announced plans to accept crypto payments. Another one came in April after it announced a partnership with Gemini to develop a crypto rewards credit card.
