November 2024 - November 2025

Insights

Detailed observation of presented data

Introduction

Crypto & Blockchain ads in Argentina are running at extraordinarily low cost-per-click levels, and they’re doing so quietly. Across the two observed 2025 months, CPC holds under 0.04, roughly 30x below the global median. The local line nudges down from January into October, while the global benchmark eases through Q3 before lifting into Q4. Volatility is the other story: Argentina’s values sit in a narrow band, whereas the global market shows steadier drift with a noticeable year-end climb.

This analysis is based on $3B worth of advertising data from our dataset, which provides strong directional benchmarks. This analysis explores ad performance trends for Crypto & Blockchain in Argentina compared to the global benchmark.

The story in the data

  • Argentina’s Crypto & Blockchain CPC started 2025 at 0.0378 (January) and edged down to 0.0356 by October, a −5.9% change across the period. The two points fall in a tight 0.0022 range, with an average of 0.0367.
  • Against the global market, the gap is stark. The 2025 global median CPC averaged about 1.10 from January to October, peaking at 1.14 in March and bottoming at 1.04 in September. By November, the global benchmark climbed to 1.21, signaling a Q4 lift.
  • Relative positioning stayed consistent: Argentina’s CPC was about 30x lower than the global average in both observed months—roughly 96.6–96.7% below global levels. In January, 0.0378 vs. 1.135 translated to a 30x spread; in October, 0.0356 vs. 1.051 kept the spread near 29–30x.
  • Volatility split is clear. Global month‑to‑month absolute change averaged about 0.055 across the period (roughly 5% of the global mean), while Argentina’s two observed points suggest an ultra‑tight band with minimal swing.

Seasonal and monthly dynamics

  • In the global series, CPC typically softens into late Q3: from a March high (1.14) the median drifted down toward September (1.04), then rebounded in Q4, rising through October (1.05) and jumping further in November (1.21).
  • Argentina’s Crypto & Blockchain CPC shows the opposite timing within the limited view: October sits slightly below January despite the global Q4 lift. With only two months observed, the local series reads as low and steady—more a flatline than a curve—against a global backdrop that follows a familiar peak‑to‑trough‑to‑peak seasonal rhythm.

Country vs. Global

  • Levels: Argentina remained far below market—around 97% under the global CPC in both January and October. The spread held tight: at its narrowest (October), Argentina was 96.6% below global; at its widest (January), 96.7% below.
  • Momentum: From January to October, the global benchmark declined about −7% (1.135 to 1.051), while Argentina slipped −6% on a much smaller base (0.0378 to 0.0356).
  • Volatility: The global line was more active, with average month‑over‑month shifts near 5% of the mean, whereas Argentina’s observed CPC sat in a narrow 0.0022 corridor—effectively stable at sub‑0.04.

Understanding the Data

Insights & analysis of Facebook advertising costs

Cost Per Click (CPC) is the amount advertisers pay each time a user clicks on their Facebook ad. In the Crypto & Blockchain industry, Facebook ad costs can be influenced by seasonal trends and market competition. For campaigns targeting Argentina, advertisers should consider local market factors and user behavior. Different campaign objectives lead to varying costs based on how Facebook optimizes for your specific goals. The data shown represents median values across multiple campaigns, and individual results may vary based on ad quality, audience targeting, and campaign optimization.

Why we use median instead of average

We use the median CTR because the underlying distribution of click-through rates is highly skewed, with a small share of campaigns achieving extremely high CTRs. These outliers can inflate a simple average, making it less representative of what most advertisers actually experience. By using the median—which sits at the midpoint of all campaigns—we provide a more rigorous and realistic benchmark that reflects the true underlying data model and helps you set attainable performance expectations.

Key Factors Affecting Facebook Ad Costs

  • Competition within your selected industry and audience demographics
  • Ad quality and relevance score – higher quality ads can lower costs
  • Campaign objective and bid strategy
  • Timing and seasonality – costs often increase during holiday periods
  • Ad placement (News Feed, Instagram, Audience Network, etc.)

Note: This data represents industry median values and benchmarks. Your actual costs may vary based on specific targeting, ad creative quality, and campaign optimization.

What exactly is CPC in Facebook Ads?

CPC (Cost Per Click) is what you pay each time someone clicks on your ad, on any Facebook Ads placement. It's calculated by dividing your total spend by the number of clicks received. Facebook Ads lists Clicks, Link Clicks and Outbound Clicks separately. The former is the sum of all types of clicks (including, for example, clicks to your profile page, to a link or to a comment).

What's considered a good CPC for Facebook ads in 2025?

The truth is that varies, so play with our tool to get some benchmarks that are relevant to you. CPC values are highly dependent on the region, industry and campaign objective. The US is one of the most expensive markets.

What influences cost per click on Facebook?

Several factors affect CPC: your audience targeting, competition in your industry, ad relevance score, and creative performance. If your ad isn't getting engagement or relevance is low, CPC tends to spike.

Why is my Facebook ad CPC suddenly increasing?

CPC spikes usually happen because of increased competition in your target audience, seasonal trends (like holidays), poor ad relevance scores, or algorithm changes. Check if your audience targeting has become too narrow or if your creative is showing fatigue.

Do desktop and mobile Facebook ads have different CPCs?

Yes, there's a noticeable difference between platforms. Mobile CPCs often run lower than desktop. How many times do check Instagram on your phone and how often do you open it in your computer? There's simply much more mobile inventory. Tip: segment your performance data by placement to understand where your clicks are coming from. Spoiler: it's likely all mobile.

Should I optimize my campaigns for CPC or conversions?

For most businesses, optimizing for conversions will deliver much better ROI than focusing purely on CPC. A low CPC is meaningless if those clicks don't convert. However, if you're running awareness campaigns or some kind content promotion, CPC optimization might potentially make sense, although most experts have switched to conversion optimization by now.

Why do my CPC benchmarks differ from published industry averages?

Your specific audience targeting, creative quality, bidding strategy, and account history all influence your CPC. Industry averages provide a reference point, but your historical performance is a more reliable benchmark for setting expectations and measuring improvement.

Are CPCs cheaper on Instagram or Facebook?

Instagram CPCs are generally slightly higher due to stronger purchase intent and higher competition among advertisers. But it depends on the audience and creative.
