July payment statistics time! 🥳
We added a few coins this month, so the statistics are getting ever broader and ever more representative.
Let's dive in! 👇
We have to start with Monero.
It's eating up everything else in our pie chart. XMR now sees 3x as much usage as Nano, and is used more than all other coins combined at 52.91%.
Genuine props to the Monero community - offer a privacy solution and they will come!
Second biggest is once again Nano. Our love, our initial coin, and a coin that is punching way above its weight.
Ranked #400 in market cap, yet for months it's been the most used or 2nd most used coin on our platform at 17.71%.
Hopefully on BTCPayServer soon! See the exciting developments here.
3rd biggest has been retaken by Bitcoin! 10.2% of payments were using Bitcoin, in addition to another 0.95% using the Lightning network.
Average BTC transaction size was $24.48, while Lightning's was $4.42. As expected, but still fun to confirm.
Digital silver Litecoin plus the recently added Litecoin MWEB added up to 6.7%.
6.59% Litecoin, 0.11% specifically MWEB.
To be fair - we only added MWEB payments about 7 days ago! Read about our MWEB integration.
3.57% of payments volume was done using ETH + L2s on Ethereum.
This includes Base (the most used L2), Arbitrum, Optimism, as well as all coins on all these chains.
Finally with a remarkable amount of usage, Zcash with 3.44%.
All the more remarkable given that ZEC payments were only added 2 weeks ago, and the much-requested shielded pay-in addresses a few days ago. Learn about our Zcash integration.
Here's the complete breakdown for all coins:
Unfortunately as you can see Kaspa was barely used, with just 0.05% of usage.
We know there are a lot of Kaspa enthusiasts and presumably users as well - we'd love to get in touch with some Kaspa people to hear how we can let Kaspians know we exist!
Another addition this month that didn't pan out (so far) was MultiversX, with just 0.01% of total usage.
We know that there is a large community and that there is a lot of usage, so if anyone in MultiversX can get us on a podcast to explain NanoGPT, we're all ears!
In a similar vein the typical payment coins like Bitcoin Cash and Dash do not see the amount of usage on NanoGPT that you would expect. We clearly need to up our outreach there!
That's all for this month! As always we hope that merchants that are considering accepting crypto can use this as a guide to what crypto to prioritize.
We're always happy to chat if any of you want to know more about NanoGPT or how we accept all these coins!
