Market Research Reports on Cryptocurrency Market
Cryptocurrency is a new age financial innovation that aims
to not only replace cash but also to support existing systems. They are divided
into categories based on the design goals of various cryptocurrencies (Digital
Cash coins, Payment Infrastructure tokens, Securities tokens, Utility tokens,
general platform tokens, and others), as well as the market capitalization of
cryptocurrencies.
Market Overview
Cryptocurrencies, which are designed to be used for
peer-to-peer transactions without being held accountable to any government or
central bank, are the most recent financial innovations being investigated not
only for the reasons for their existence, but also for potential risks and
opportunities in the financial industry. Thousands of cryptocurrencies exist,
each with a unique design goal. These technical requirements are to provide a
digital currency alternative to cash (Bitcoin, Monero, and Bitcoin Cash), to
support low-cost payment systems (Ripple, Particl, and Utility Settlement
Coin), to support peer-to-peer financial transactions by creating tokens, to
facilitate secure access to a good or service in peer-to-peer trading, and to
support the underlying platform or protocol. These design goals will not be
exhaustive because new cryptocurrencies are created every week. Blockchain is
the underlying technology that underpins the majority of cryptocurrencies. The cryptocurrency
market is divided into segments based on the market capitalization of
numerous cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies intersect with key aspects of the
monetary and financial systems. Because of their rapid growth, complexity, high
volatility, and potential for facilitating illicit activities, regulators and
policymakers around the world are concerned about their inclusion in existing
systems.
Market Trend
Because of the ever-changing nature of this market, with new
cryptocurrencies being created every week, it is difficult to estimate the size
of the cryptocurrency market. The cryptocurrency market is complicated by a
wide range of market exchanges for cryptocurrency trading that are spread
across the globe due to their privacy protection features, as well as rapid
growth, extreme price volatility, and market illiquidity. The market
capitalization of cryptocurrencies over time demonstrates how volatile the
market's price is. For example, during the month of January 2018, the estimated
cryptocurrency market capitalization ranged between 400 billion USD and 800
billion USD, from 566 billion USD at the start of the year to 128 billion USD
by the end of the year. In terms of transaction volumes, bitcoin alone
had the highest number of 200,000 average daily transactions.
Market Challenge
Cryptocurrency has the potential to transform and
revolutionise compliance-free peer-to-peer and remittance transactions;
however, in order to benefit from cryptocurrency, end users must overcome
certain challenges related to security, privacy, and control. Because
cryptocurrency transactions are recorded in the blockchain, a distributed
public ledger, hackers have a large attack surface to gain access. If this
public ledger is used to store sensitive contract-related information or
payment data, replicating the file may make it easier for hackers to gain
access to it. If a key is compromised, it can be used to access the database in
both a hub-and-spoke and a distributed model.
Market Main Players
Canaan Creative (China), Bitmain (China), NVIDIA (US),
Xilinx (US), Intel (US), Advanced Micro Devices (US), Ripple Labs (US),
Ethereum Foundation (Switzerland), Bitfury Group (Netherlands), Coinbase (US),
BitGo (US), Binance Holdings (China) (China). Bitstamp (Luxembourg), Ifinex
(Hong Kong), Ledger SAS (France), Xapo (Hong Kong), and Alcheminer (US) are a
few of the major companies that dominate the Cryptocurrency market.
