US Google Users More Interested in Ripple (XRP) than Bitcoin"},"content":{"rendered":"
According to Google<\/a> Trends last year, the number of US<\/a> users searching for the term, “how to buy Ripple” was greater than the number using the popular search engine to query “how to buy Bitcoin”. However, Google users interested in cryptocurrency from outside the US searched more frequently for information regarding taking up a position in the current number one digital asset by market capitalisation than they did for buying XRP.<\/p>\n Likewise, just the term “Bitcoin” outperformed “XRP” or “Ripple” both globally and in the US. Therefore, the long-awaited “flippening” that XRP fans are calling for might have to wait a little longer yet.<\/p>\n For advocates of and investors in Ripple’s XRP, it is only a matter of time before the bank-friendly<\/a> token replaces Bitcoin as the leading digital asset by market capitalisation.

Based on the potentially increased utility many more transactions per second provide, large numbers of folks are banking on XRP one day outperforming Bitcoin in terms of market capitalisation.<\/p>\n Whilst the controversial XRP currency is still a long way behind Bitcoin in terms of total size of market, there is one metric that Ripple appears to be somewhat outperforming Bitcoin on – US Google interest.<\/p>\n Twitter user and former engineer at Coinbase<\/a>, Preethi Kasireddy, highlighted earlier today that, according to Google Trends<\/a>, the phrase “how to buy Ripple” was more frequently searched than “how to buy Bitcoin” amongst US users of the search engine during the course of 2018:<\/p>\n Google's 2018 top "How to" searches:<\/p>\n 1) How to vote — Preethi Kasireddy (@iam_preethi) April 2, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nGoogle Trends: Buying XRP More Popular than BTC in US Last Year?<\/h2>\n
