The cryptocurrency industry has been covering a lot of ground in the Asian continent. At present, there are many countries from Asia that have adopted crypto-blockchain technology. One of the most prominent countries adopting crypto-blockchain is India.

Although the crypto-industry has faced a lot of ups and downs in India over the past couple of years, it is still gaining a lot of recognition in the country. If it is technology we are talking about, then India has to be mentioned due to its rank as one of the advanced countries when it comes to IT and Programming.
