The spiked levels of enthusiasm surrounding crypto and other cryptocurrency-related terms have dropped to the levels seen in 2020. Based on the data from Google Analytics, it has come to light that the term ‘crypto’ has a score of 17, which is far from its reference point of 100 as seen in May 2021. At the same time, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have followed similar footsteps toward a downward trajectory.

Furthermore, the overall search interest regarding crypto and other terms has been fading since May 2022, approximately a month after the abrupt collapse of the Terra ecosystem. However, a minor spike was witnessed not too long after the collapse of the FTX exchange. It is believed by the masses that the lack of interest results from Bitcoin (BTC) hovering around the $28K mark for up to 10 weeks now. At the same time, analysts consider this to be a result of the lack of institutional excitement.
