Let’s get deep into the critical challenges
Cryptocurrencies, with a market capitalization of $2.5 trillion, operate largely outside the real economy. A staggering 89% of this value stems from financial speculation, offering little tangible economic benefit. Despite 550 million active users worldwide, only 0.0045% of businesses (16,000 entities) accept cryptocurrencies as payment, underscoring their limited real-world integration. The proliferation of 15,000 cryptocurrencies adds to market saturation, driven by speculative trading rather than practical utility.
