The emergence of decentralized cryptocurrencies
The world’s medium of currency and value exchange is changing. By using cryptography to secure transactions and record them on an immutable ledger on decentralized global networks, currency and value exchanging are evolving and faster than ever before. Bitcoin was the first technological advancement of this kind, and it surely won’t be the last. There are now over 1,300 cryptocurrencies.
Global market growth and trends
Bitcoin, the first digital asset of its kind, came into existence in 2009. In its early few years, the price of Bitcoin grew from less a 1 cent to 1 dollar. Fast forward to 2017 and the price of Bitcoin has risen from just under US$1,000 to over US$17,000. The growth trajectory of Bitcoin is not unique. Several other cryptocurrencies have experienced the same monumental growth. In 2017 the total cryptocurrency market has grown from US$18 billion to over US$700 billion.
The use case and tech proposition
The fundamental technologies underpinning the cryptocurrency market are well-established, and some companies have developed systems, networks and infrastructure that will dramatically change the landscape of many global industries. There is significant market volatility, and there are cryptocurrencies that offer no commercial use cases. However, the cryptocurrency market as a whole is not going anywhere, and the technological advancements provide real-world solutions.
