Cryptocurrency Industry: Navigating the Landscape of Decentralized Digital Currencies

In recent years, the cryptocurrency business has grown fast, gaining significant investment and attention from both people and institutions. Decentralized digital currencies using blockchain technology to trace transactions safely and transparently include cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others. Decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-fungible tokens are only a couple of the new use cases that are developing as the market becomes more and more diverse (NFTs). The development of DeFi platforms and NFT markets has increased the size of the bitcoin market and opened up new investment opportunities. Nevertheless, the industry continues to suffer a number of difficulties, including as regulatory ambiguity, excessive volatility, and security vulnerabilities. Despite these obstacles, the bitcoin market is positioned for further expansion as new tools and uses are created and acceptance rates rise.

Cryptocurrency Market by Hardware

Hardware to hold largest size of Cryptocurrency market

The concept of cryptocurrency is based on decentralizing the monitoring of transactions. In the transaction monitoring process, miners (generally the users) validate the transactions made by other users. In this process, the system needs high computing power to validate the transactions.

The validation process involves the creation of hash codes to encrypt the transactions. To generate a hash code, the miner needs highly effective and efficient hardware. In other words, to get new blocks and solve them, miners need to generate as many hash codes as possible.

Miners get rewards through mining. Mining rigs are available in several shapes and sizes. The cryptocurrency market for hardware has been segmented, on the basis of processor, into GPUs, central processing units (CPUs), FPGAs, and ASICs.

Cryptocurrency Market Size by Mining

Mining process to hold largest share of Cryptocurrency market

Mining is an integral process for the generation, transmission, and validation of transactions in cryptocurrencies.

It ensures stable, secure, and safe propagation of the currency from a payer to a receiver. Unlike fiat currency, where a centralized authority controls and regulates the transactions, cryptocurrencies are decentralized and work on a peer-to-peer system.

Cryptocurrency Market Growth Dynamics

Driver: Transparency of distributed ledger technology

Issues related to lack of transparency arise when transactions take place without the knowledge of stakeholders, especially in Asian countries where several instances of fraudulent or unwanted transactions, such as deduction of scheduled charges, are frequently observed.

This may be caused by human error, machine error, or data manipulation during the transaction process, and may result in customers losing huge amounts of money. Moreover, in most cases, financial institutions do not accept their fault. This lack of transparency in the current monetary system leads to dissatisfaction among the public.

Restraint: Uncertain regulatory status

The cryptocurrency market is not yet regulated. At present, the lack of regulations and the uncertainty regarding the same are among the major factors restraining the adoption of cryptocurrencies.

While financial regulatory bodies across the world are working to find common standards for cryptocurrencies, regulatory acceptance remains one of the biggest challenges. As the distributed ledger technology is still in the nascent stage, it raises a number of questions for regulators and policymakers at national and international levels.

Opportunity: Significant growth opportunities in emerging and developed markets

Emerging economies (such as India, China, and Brazil) and developed countries (such as the US, Germany, and Japan) are expected to offer significant growth opportunities for companies operating in the cryptocurrency market.

For instance, in 2020, Brazilian crypto companies have signed a code of self-regulation that aims to legitimize and boost the adoption of crypto assets in the country. The document was signed under the auspices of Abcripto, the country’s association of cryptocurrency companies.

The objective of the agreement is to establish operational practices and compliance standards that all members must adhere to. The country’s prominent cryptocurrency firms that signed the code include Foxbit, Ripio, Bitcoin Market, and Novadax.

Challenge: Concerns regarding security, privacy, and control

Cryptocurrency has the potential of transforming and revolutionizing compliance-free peer-to-peer and remittance transactions; however, end users have to overcome certain challenges related to security, privacy, and control to benefit from cryptocurrency.

As cryptocurrency transactions are recorded in the distributed public ledger known as blockchain, hackers have a large attack surface to gain access to critical and sensitive information. If this public ledger is used to store confidential contract-related information or payment data, replicating the file could potentially make it easier for hackers to access it. If a key is compromised, it can be used to access the database in a hub-and-spoke model as well as in a distributed database.

Cryptocurrency Market Analysis Forecast to 2026 With COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on the global economy. With the virus spreading across 188 countries, a number of businesses were shut down and many people lost their jobs.

The virus mostly affected small businesses, but large corporations felt the impact as well. Apple closed all of its stores outside of China temporarily and Bloomingdale’s did the same with all of its 56 locations. Against the backdrop of the uncertainty raised by COVID-19, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital currencies have garnered significant attention. Even banks have started buying crypto for the first time.

Banks in the US are creating their own blockchain-based systems, including digital currencies, to enable B2B cryptocurrency payments between their customers. Also, in October 2020, PayPal announced that its customers will be able to buy, sell, and hold Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies using their PayPal accounts, allowing customers to buy things from the 26 million sellers who accept PayPal, In 2021, PayPal is planning to allow cryptocurrency to be used as a funding source.

Recent Developments in Cryptocurrency Market Trends

  • In March 2018, NVIDIA announced a series of new technologies and partnerships that expand its potential inference market to 30 million hyperscale servers worldwide, while dramatically lowering the cost of delivering deep learning-powered services .
  • In February 2018, AMD launched EPYC Embedded 3000 series processor and AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 processor that deliver high performance, exceptional integration, and on-chip security.
