The Impact of Cryptocurrencies on the Global Economy
Cryptocurrencies, led by Bitcoin and Ethereum, have been disrupting the global economy for over a decade. Their decentralized nature challenges the monopoly of central banks on monetary issuance, offering an alternative to traditional financial systems. In some crisis-stricken countries, such as Venezuela or Argentina, they even represent a lifeline against hyperinflation.
On international markets, cryptocurrencies are attracting more and more investors and favoring the emergence of new forms of financing, such as ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings). However, their volatility, use in illicit activities, and lack of global regulation raise concerns. Despite this, cryptocurrencies are gradually asserting themselves in exchanges, prompting states to consider the creation of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
