ApeX Protocol recently revealed a thorough analysis of the countries topping blockchain and cryptocurrency innovation. 

Singapore was the first on the list, with a solid infrastructure and good works focused on the adoption of these technologies.

The study ranked nations using a composite index that incorporated key metrics, including blockchain patents, jobs in blockchain technology, and the number of crypto exchanges. To ensure fair comparisons, the data was adjusted relative to population size.

  1. Singapore

With a composite score of 85.4, Singapore leads the global rankings. Known for its progressive approach to technology, the country has over 2,400 blockchain-related jobs and 81 crypto exchanges. Its extensive patent activity further makes it a hub for innovation and adoption.

  1. Hong Kong

Scoring 82.7, Hong Kong combines financial expertise with blockchain integration. The city hosts 1,100 jobs in blockchain technology and 52 crypto exchanges, showing its huge role in the crypto economy.

  1. Estonia

Even though Estonia is one of the smallest countries on the list, it ranks third with a score of 81.5. Known for its digital-first policies, it has 95 blockchain patents, 52 exchanges, and 149 blockchain-related jobs, ascertaining that size is no barrier to innovation.

  1. Switzerland

A global innovator in decentralised finance, Switzerland scores 80.2. The country supports 440 blockchain jobs and operates 32 crypto exchanges, speaking loads about its status as a blockchain-friendly nation.

  1. United States

With the highest numbers across most metrics, the United States ranks fifth, scoring 79.8. It leads innovation with 32,000 blockchain patents, employs over 17,000 people in blockchain-related roles, and hosts 166 crypto exchanges.

  1. Canada

Canada takes sixth place with a score of 77.3. Its 1,200 blockchain patents and an equal number of jobs in the sector highlight its growing focus on blockchain technology. The country also operates 32 crypto exchanges, offering a stable market for cryptocurrencies.

  1. Australia

Scoring 76.8, Australia shows strong progress with 1,400 blockchain patents and 573 jobs in the field. Its 31 crypto exchanges further emphasise the country’s commitment to expanding its blockchain ecosystem.

  1. South Korea

With a score of 75.4, South Korea stands out for its commendable 18,000 blockchain patents, the second-highest on the list. However, its smaller workforce of 121 blockchain jobs and 29 crypto exchanges places it in the eighth position.

  1. United Kingdom

The UK secures the ninth spot with a score of 74.9. It has a strong presence in the crypto market, operating 95 exchanges and offering 2,673 blockchain-related jobs. The country’s 2,800 blockchain patents also reiterates its focus on innovation.

  1. United Arab Emirates (UAE)

The UAE rounds off the list with a score of 73.2. It has steadily grown its blockchain ecosystem, having 340 patents, 414 blockchain jobs, and nine crypto exchanges, focusing on strategic adoption rather than scale.

A spokesperson from ApeX shared their perspective on the findings: “Blockchain technology is no longer just a niche innovation; it has become a cornerstone for digital transformation across industries. The countries leading in this space are not just embracing the technology but are actively shaping its future. What stands out is how diverse approaches—whether through regulatory clarity, investment in talent, or fostering innovation—are paving the way for global adoption. This reflects a broader shift toward decentralization and transparency, which are becoming essential in today’s interconnected economy.”
