What is the economic impact of cryptocurrencies?
Although the cryptocurrency market seems to develop in a positive feedback loop, this does not mean that (un)expected events may not have an impact on the trajectory of the ecosystem as a whole.
Although blockchain and cryptocurrencies are fundamentally designed as “trustless” technologies, trust is still essential where humans interact with each other. The cryptocurrency market is not only impacted by the broader economy, but it can also generate profound effects on its own. Indeed, the Terra case shows that any entity – be it a single company, a venture capital firm or a project issuing an algorithmic stablecoin – can potentially trigger or contribute to a “ boom” or “bust” in cryptocurrency markets.
The impact of such crypto-native events with systemic impact mirroring the domino effects of traditional finance, and the consecutive falls of Celsius and Three Arrows Capital, all indicate that the crypto-economy is not up to par. chess shelter. Indeed, while traditional finance has too-big-to-fail institutions, the crypto sector does not.
It's always easy to look back, but the Terra project was fundamentally flawed and unsustainable over time. Nevertheless, its fall had a systemic impact as many projects, venture capitalists and incumbents were exposed and heavily impacted. This indicates that investing in cryptocurrencies is all about thinking about the risks and potential rewards.
The fall and the domino effect at all levels indicate the lack of maturity of the sector itself.
Since innovation and prices are intrinsically linked and the early development of the crypto-economy offers great untapped potential, said economy may continue to see events that temporarily undermine growth.
Yet many workers in the industry hold the “untrustworthy” belief that strong projects will hold through temporary corrections and that the crypto winter will usher in a cycle of unprecedented and limitless disruptive innovation.
