Global Crypto Ecosystem
The popularity of cryptocurrencies is rising rapidly across the world. According to a report published by digital exchange Crypto.com, global cryptocurrency users crossed the mark of 300 million in 2021. The number is expected to touch 1 billion by the end of 2022. Despite the reason that investors in some countries prefer certain digital assets, the overall interest around the emerging asset class has jumped substantially.
In Germany, the use of digital assets for transactions is also surging despite an uncertain global regulatory environment. “The mainstream nature of cryptocurrencies as a means of passive income generation among German crypto investors is highlighted by the figures, which show that they allocate an average 24% of their trading volumes to staking for earning stable income with yields higher than those offered by bank savings accounts,” the report added.
