Canada crypto remittances to Asia surge 141% to $2.36B: Chainalysis
The surge points to remittance corridors where crypto is gaining ground as a transfer channel, not just a speculative asset. The Philippines' comparatively modest growth suggests the headline number is driven by the other two destinations, so the composition of flows matters more than the total. Whether this reflects a durable shift in how diaspora communities send money, or a temporary spike tied to conditions in those corridors, is the open question.
