Google, najbolj priljubljen kazalnik trenda Bitcoin, dopolnjuje 23 let

Google, the leading indicator used to track the popularity of Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies, celebrated its 23rd anniversary on Monday.

Iskalnik, ki sta ga ustanovila Larry Page in Sergey Brin, ko sta bila študenta na univerzi Stanford, je večino svojih 23 let svojega obstoja ena od glavnih vstopnih točk v internet.

Following the inception of cryptocurrencies, Google has been the primary method to search for new coins, track market trends and learn how to buy crypto.

Since internet search statistics are an excellent way to track user behavior, Google Trends has become a reliable source for understanding user interest in a near real-time fashion. Traders use the tool, which analyzes the popularity of search queries in a specific period, to identify emerging patterns.

Initial coin offerings, or ICOs, decentralized finance, or DeFi, and nonfungible tokens, or NFTs, all experienced a spike in Google Trends before taking the main stage in the crypto ecosystem.

A quick search for Bitcoin oddaj that internet user interest almost overlaps with the price volatility of the largest cryptocurrency. A similar overlap can be seen v Dogecoin (DOGE) charts.

Neutral statistics aside, Google’s stance on cryptocurrencies mimics the perception of the mainstream. In March 2018, following the infamous ICO boom, Google banned cryptocurrency-related advertising on its platform via an update to its Financial Services policy.

Since then, the search giant has softened on the subject, announcing that crypto ads by regulated entities are good to go again. While the company still does not allow DeFi ads or celebrity endorsements related to crypto, advertisers registered with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network can advertise their crypto exchange and wallet services.
