How are these cryptocurrencies revolutionizing the Economy?
All cryptocurrencies are built for the betterment of the financial system. To run it more smoothly than ever before. These cryptos not only provide users to store their precious money in a place that is safe since they do not have any centralized control. Although the price volatility in the crypto space is very high still.
Many cryptocurrencies are there which are not that much volatile. For example, several stablecoins do not show too much price volatility like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Users can invest in these coins without any fear of losing so much money.
This is because these coins are pegged with the US dollar and do not show soo much price volatility. Crypto is not only safe nowadays but also nontransparent. There are many cryptocurrencies like monero. Which hides user identity very efficiently and makes it very hard for fishy eyes to track the transactions. Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency hence it also has several discrepancies. These discrepancies are solved by introducing cryptocurrencies like Cardano.
This cryptocurrency was developed by one of the co-founders of Ethereum this crypto is not only energy efficient but also very fast as compared to Bitcoin or Ethereum. Cardano has a transaction speed of 250 transactions per second. They are also planning to increase the speed and take it to 1 million transactions per second. With the help of their Hydra 2 layer.
In this way, cryptocurrency will revolutionize the digital economy.
