Nearly one third of the respondents to a question on virtual currency storage indicated they used a wallet for storage, rather than keeping the cryptocurrency on the trading platform. The United Kingdom ranks as one of the countries with the most Bitcoin trading in the world in 2020. Bitcoin transactions from the UK grew steadily during 2020, as the cryptocurrency's price gathered pace, but did were not nearly as high as in late 2017.
