The Most Anticipated Crypto Industry Events in 2023

Reading time

The development of crypto technologies has brought many benefits to society, which largely transformed most of the different spheres of human activity, marking the creation and implementation of various related technologies that operate on the basis of distributed registries’ technology. Metaverse, Web 3.0, GameFI, NFT, DeFi – this is just a small list of the promising and innovative trends that are shaping the crypto industry today, paving the way to the bright future of digitalization.

Crypto Technology as a New Milestone in the Development of the World Financial System

Information technology plays a significant role in the daily life of economic actors. Until recently, cryptocurrencies were considered entertainment and were only of interest to enthusiasts. The situation changed dramatically when bitcoin began to rise sharply against the U.S. dollar in early 2017. In addition to the obvious attention from those wishing to profit from the difference in exchange rates, the scientific and business communities also paid attention to the alternative opportunities offered by the new class of instruments. First and foremost, blockchain, or distributed ledger technology, allows many transactions to be conducted openly without the need for intermediaries such as banks.

The year 2022 saw a series of ups and downs for the crypto industry. After a surge in 2021, 2022 began with a correction in January: Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) fell about 20% and 31%, respectively. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate hikes, high inflation, staff layoffs, and a general slowdown in global economic growth have led to financial and reputational losses for many projects and increased uncertainty in the crypto market. Nevertheless, experts point to the market’s resilience; in turn, investors have not only learned from the market turmoil of 2022, but are also preparing for new investments in 2023.
