Data Story Overview

States and Cryptocurrencies



While doing my own research on different cryptocurrencies on Google Trends, I found that cryptocurrency search results are vastly more popular in the West Coast of the US like California, Washington, Nevada, along with some states on the east coast such as New York and New Jersery. I also discovered that CPU and GPU prices started rising when cryptocurrencies became popular, but google trends didn't show that the searches for certain gpu's and cpu's actually to increase with the increase of the popularity of cryptocurrencies. This brought me to think why area's are more interested in cryptocurrencies than others.
