Data from google trends.

As pointed out here it could be VPN locations. But on an other side we also can see tax heavens who's may struggling over coming regulations.

What if we target this userbase ?

Last I knew monero and other ecurrencies are used heavily by cyber threat groups (APTs). Sometimes you can trace out their whole operations network from the data.

Look around for more info - I’d recommend looking up info on crypto osint

Most of APTs are not really skilled about opsec usage. Last biggest actor were Lazarus and they did the mistake to not use bisq. LockBit for example is still using Bitcoin

Idk anything about their specific infra or procedures/practices tbh. I just know that threat researchers love lookin through crypto public record/graphs and correlating them fuckers
