Ljubljana, Slovenia, has become the most cryptocurrency-friendly city in the world, surpassing famous cryptocurrency hubs like Hong Kong and Singapore.
The capital of Slovenia — Ljubljana — has been honored by the migration consultancy firm Multipolitan as the most cryptocurrency-friendly city in the world.
The city ranks higher than Hong Kong and the economic powerhouse Zurich in Switzerland, which scored the same in the Cryptocurrency Friendly City Index, according to the 2025 Cryptocurrency Report.
This index includes 20 cities and ranks the level of cryptocurrency friendliness based on regulations, tax environment, lifestyle factors, and digital and cryptocurrency infrastructure.
Multipolitan stated that their assessment considered areas such as the city’s licensing framework, capital gains tax rates, GDP per capita, housing affordability, and internet speed.
“The presence of cryptocurrency ATMs and the rate of retail adoption have been analyzed to reflect each city’s embedded cryptocurrency culture,” the report explains. “A high density of these assets has achieved the highest scores.”
The city-state of Singapore and the capital of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates ranked fourth and fifth, respectively, after tying for second place.
