OAG Lightning Analysis: Mapping Cryptocurrency Adoption through Fiat Pairings

        An interesting, and visually pleasing, way to measure cryptocurrency adoption is through the use of maps. For this lightning analysis, we've collected coinmarketcap.com data to link Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ethereum (ETH), Ethereum Classic (ETC), and Dash (DASH) with the country of origin for each fiat pair listed on the site. Using R's mapping capabilities, we then highlighted every country with that crypto-fiat pair. As everyone would expect, Bitcoin, the grandfather of them all, has the most global adoption. All the cryptocurrencies tracked had solid adoption in Europe and North America, but there appears to be further growth opportunities in the Asia and African continents.
