Singapore retains lead in Asia for crypto readiness

Globally, Singapore ranked 5th.

Singapore remains the highest-ranking Asian market in the world’s most crypto-ready cities list, ranking 5th.

Singapore received a crypto-ready score of 72.23.

“Its well-thought-out strategy which is a combination of rules and regulations to protect and encourage innovation, has made it a popular place for crypto companies,” Coinwire stated.

“The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has been actively creating regulations to help crypto businesses while still allowing innovation to thrive,” Coinwire added.

Singapore was also amongst the top 10 cities with the most crypto ATMs (7th), with 537, translating to a score of 29.67. 

It also ranked second amongst cities with the best crypto employment opportunities, with a score of 100.00.

“Despite the hurdles of regulation, Singapore managed to attain a score of 98.57/100 in the crypto job market, demonstrating its strength. This is evident in the city's active trading community, as well as its competition with other financial hubs in Asia for crypto talent, resulting in a high employment score,” Coinwire said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers.

The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
