Dogecoin More Popular Than Bitcoin On Reddit In 2021, Tesla Getting Into Bitcoin Among Top Posts

According to Reddit’s end-of-year survey, the Dogecoin DOGE/USD subreddit was more popular than Bitcoin BTC/USD in 2021.

The five most visited crypto subreddits included r/dogecoin, r/superstonk, r/cryptocurrency, r/amcstock, and r/bitcoin. 

The most-upvoted cryptocurrency-related posts on Reddit last year were about Doge, Tesla Inc TSLA getting into Bitcoin, and crypto’s survivorship bias. 

The word “crypto” has been used over 6.6 million times across the site and was its most-viewed topic, beating out gaming, sports, and weddings, in that order.

According to Reddit’s data, out of its more than 500 different crypto-related subreddits, r/superstonk saw the most growth in 2021, increasing its membership by 917% to 713,000 users since 2020.

Another famous financial subreddit giant, r/wallstreetbets (WSB), recently reversed its anti-crypto attitude, letting its 11.4 million members discuss Dogecoin, Ethereum ETH/USD, and Bitcoin.

Reddit hosts more than 430 million monthly active users in over 100,000 communities. The website says users created 366 million posts in 2021, which was a 19% increase year-over-year.
