Once COVID-19 took the world by storm, the world's economy has been on a constant decline. Crypto has largely benefited from this, as the market experienced new gains in such as short amount of time. There's now a stablecoin and "De-Fi" craze making many ERC-20 tokens, stablecoins, and even Ethereum extremely popular in the mainstream world. Their prices have increased at a fast pace, leading many wondering what will come up next after the demise of COVID-19. If the world's economy starts recovering at a slow and steady pace, crypto's gains might not last for long. Maybe everything will return back to the way it was before the deadly disease? Or maybe crypto prices will remain stagnant on the market?
Whatever happens after COVID-19, there's no denying that crypto is a resilient alternative financial system in times of need. In a first of its kind, crypto has remained "impervious" from negative events in the mainstream world. My guess is that crypto will continue to go higher in price even after the demise of COVID-19, as people's trust in the banking system will diminish. The premier cryptocurrency (Bitcoin) will be officially recognized as a true alternative of Gold, proving itself as a store of value in times of need.
Thoughts?
Covid-19 did really make a large difference in the market and the crypto market benefit out of it. The stock market undeniably declined as the Covid-19 hits most of the big corporations tend to close while the Crypto market made a surge. Perhaps, that causes the investor tend to move in crypto or should I say on DeFi programs. I also have a hunch that causes why DeFi is now in the hype and apparently, this might also the reason why Bitcoin made a sudden movement.
I have a doubt that things might go back to normal the as COVID issue will be sorted or there's a chance that it will keep going. The point is we never know what will happen next hence, we should take the opportunity as much as we can.
