Amid a price decline for Bitcoin, the currency is growing quickly in many markets. Especially in markets that have been counted as obvious markets for Bitcoin. I have calculated the growth rate for the last month in the largest 40 countries measured in Bitcoin-qt downloads according to
Sourceforge.
The first number is the percentage growth the last 30 days, then the name of the country and finally the ranking in all-time qt-downloads 30 days ago on June 4th:
5.07% World 0
12.06% Lithuania 41
10.22% Argentina 19
9.32% Switzerland 20
8.90% Mexico 29
8.54% Portugal 28
8.45% Brazil 16
8.37% Hungary 36
7.57% India 18
7.49% Japan 38
6.54% Hong Kong 39
6.28% China 2
6.23% France 11
6.17% Singapore 40
5.99% Bulgaria 31
5.75% Romania 21
5.56% Norway 25
5.45% South Africa 34
5.34% Italy 14
5.30% United Kingdom 4
5.26% Australia 7
5.22% Ukraine 12
5.03% Ireland 33
5.01% Belarus 37
4.80% Slovakia 35
4.65% Spain 13
4.52% Czech Republic 26
4.45% Russia 5
4.23% United States 1
4.19% Belgium 23
4.16% Greece 32
4.13% Canada 6
4.12% Netherlands 9
3.96% Sweden 15
3.79% New Zealand 30
3.72% Denmark 24
3.71% Poland 8
3.38% Germany 3
3.02% Israel 27
3.02% Austria 22
2.55% Finland 17
So basically it seems that many of the markets what weren't so big before are growing a lot now. Also interesting is the fact that a lot of countries one would consider a big potential for Bitcoin like South American countries (due to inflation), East-Asian city states (due to good English-knowledge and lassiez-faire mentality), India (due to English/computer literacy and inflation) and Japan (due to high internet literacy and Mt Gox being situated there).
In other words, even though a lot of familiar markets are waning in interest atm, others are gaining and thus I predict that the Bitcoin price will rise in the future
