What Does Google Trends Mean For Ethereum (ETH) and Crypto At Large?
A rising Google Analytics Interest score for a cryptocurrency search term is related to positive sentiment for that particular coin or project involved.
While it makes sense that search interest on Ethereum would peak during the run-up to a new all-time high, the same can’t be said for searches of “Bitcoin,” which remain at just 65% of its peak popularity on 23rd December 2017.
Using Google Trends data it looks like the Ethereum price lags the searches by one week.

It’s worthy of note that there are many more people searching for the word “Bitcoin” rather than Ethereum by a very wide ratio of approximately 5:1.
To be specific, an increase in popularity for various cryptocurrency search terms is potentially beneficial for the crypto industry at large. The curiosity of people in searching for crypto terms is an indication that a bull run is ongoing or at hand, which would result in more purchases that will keep pushing the price upward.
