What’s the future of cryptocurrency? To get an insight into what we can expect from the crypto space in the coming few years, we draw upon insights from leading venture capitalists, crypto intelligence firms, and the CEOs of leading crypto projects.

Key themes that emerged are DeFi taking over traditional finance, the growth of web3, and the rise of the metaverse. Let’s start with the CEO of Reef, Denko Mancheski, who shared his thoughts on how cryptocurrency can be the future of humankind: "NFTs will mature into their next use case. We are already seeing dNFTs / iNFTs which are dynamic NFTs, AI driven NFTs. These are NFTs that evolve with either data or AI and that change their form over time depending on their inputs."

Most cryptocurrencies are obviously still in the process of being capitalised and early in the overall adoption cycle which is one reason prices have been quite volatile. We can probably expect to see that volatility for a while, and until they level out over the long term.

Thus, the future of crypto will be decentralization. Partially because the actual DeFi will be a multi-chain space. So in the long run, there'll be no single chain that will satisfy all the needs. The highly decentralized blockchains that will adopt for a good user experience will be the ones that will stand out.

Sharp increase in ETH prices drove Binance to a full-stop for a moment.
So much so they had to suspend withdrawals and this could mean only one thing. Binance does not have the money on hand.

This could be worrisome

A Happy New Year to all of you, and let’s hope it is a better year than 2020, which took us all by surprise with the coronavirus.

Cryptocurrency enthusiasts have had an excellent start as the value of Bitcoin, and the leading altcoins, such as Ethereum (ETH) and Litecoin (LTC) have been surging in value over the Christmas period. It has kept many of us glued to the price on an hourly basis. There were definitely days of waking up and nervously opening whichever device you prefer and checking the numbers, often to find that Bitcoin had achieved yet another All Time High while we slept.

Now that Bitcoin has breached the $30,000 barrier, and even almost touched $35,000 at one point, the predictions for an even higher climb are coming in, as might be expected. We’ve seen a small correction this morning, but the USA-based Binance CEO Catherine Coley is suggesting BTC could reach $100,000 by 2022. Only another year to HODL your crypto then! Coley said, “Where maybe we thought maybe $50,000 made sense, this number is definitely going to be a little bit higher than that in my opinion,” said Coley. “I think we’re going towards $75,000 to $100,000 for Bitcoin by the end of 2021.”

Dan Held, crypto exchange Kraken’s growth lead says Bitcoin could be entering a “supercycle” in 2021 eventually driving the price to $1,000,000. That’s mind-boggling.
Ethereum has also seen a massive surge and is now over the $1,000 mark after a few weeks of apparently hovering around $700. Cointelegraph points out that ETH has “broken a critical price point against Bitcoin, signalling that altcoins may be about to see huge gains.” Michael van der Poppe, a market analyst at Cointelegraph said, “I do believe that we’re seeing money shift from BTC towards altcoins and that Ether has bottomed out on the BTC pair,” explained Van de Poppe. “So probably continuation of altseason in this quarter with the topping out of Bitcoin dominance.”

So, buckle up folks, it’s going to be an interesting year in cryptocurrency, even if other things in the world are less inspiring.

hodl in crypto aset digital bicauz in crybto is good in the word

eports are still rolling on from the carnage of "Black Thursday" when markets around the world recorded record drops. For Bitcoin bulls, though, new data indicates that crashing markets were just another opportunity to buy the dip.

Key Takeaways
........................
- Bitcoin’s long-term investors continue to hoard over 40% of circulating supply, despite last month’s price crash.
- Hash rate for the network is back on the rise after a sizeable reduction in mining difficulty.
- Strong fundamentals don’t mean much when markets act on fear, so investors should remain cautious.

Data suggests that long-term Bitcoin bulls are still holding BTC despite crashing markets, both traditional and otherwise.

Bitcoin Bulls Show Their True Colors
.........................

The economic principle of supply and demand determine Bitcoin’s price. Those who “HODL,” or hold BTC, take a portion of circulating supply off the market until they are willing to sell.

In the span of two days, Bitcoin crashed from just below $7,000 to $3,900. This was a result of multiple factors, the primary of which being failed oil talks between Russia and OPEC.

As a result, the S&P 500, to which Bitcoin is now highly correlated, fell by a whopping 9.5%. This is steep by stock market standards and triggered industry-wide circuit breakers to halt trading.

Now, as stocks look poised to launch a relief rally, Bitcoin is shaping up to do the same.

Data from CoinMetrics, published in this week’s Our Network newsletter, suggests that Bitcoin bulls were undeterred by Bitcoin’s price crash last month. On the contrary, HODLers have come out of this crash with a larger portion of the supply, indicating their ever-optimistic mindset.
