I present a model of cryptocurrency price formation that endogenizes both the financial market for coins and the fee-based market for blockchain space. A cryptocurrency has two distinctive features: a price determined by the extent of its usage as money, and a blockchain structure that restricts settlement capacity. Limited settlement space creates competition between users of the currency, so speculative activity can crowd out monetary usage. This crowding-out undermines the ability of a cryptocurrency to act as a medium of payment, lowering its value. Higher speculative demand can reduce prices, contrary to standard economic models. Crowding-out also raises the riskiness of investing in cryptocurrency, explaining high observed price volatility. 05 November 2021 Refinancing cross-subsidies in the mortgage...

Additionally, you can mine cryptocurrencies. Mining uses your computer or designated hardware to help run the networks that back crypto assets. Running a function on your computer or hardware automatically and continuously after it’s set up, carries out the mining process and generates revenue, helping to validate the transactions that are carried out on the blockchain, depending on the computing power designated.
