Other countries included on the list were Turkey, Peru, Switzerland, India, China, U.S, Germany, and Japan.

In countries such as those mentioned they do not see crypto as risky, in fact for them it is more reliable / stable than their national currency. Many countries have had currency issues, be it Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil, China, Mexico, Russia, Thailand, Turkey, Indonesia, South Africa, and Lebanon, they have all gone through at least one currency devaluation cycle since the 1970s.
