We do not know which characteristics affect cryptocurrency prices, if any. The column argues that there are two fundamental factors that drive prices in the long run: the trustworthiness of the cryptocurrency’s blockchain and the adoption of the blockchain. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Monero are affected by these fundamentals. In some periods prices deviate, but eventually retrace the trend.
Cryptocurrencies have seen an explosion in popularity since they rose to prominence in 2009 and there are now over two thousand in existence. Some of the ‘major’ cryptocurrencies include Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin. These are among the most traded cryptocurrencies worldwide, with the largest market caps.

Over the last 24 hours, Ether (ETH), the currency for the Ethereum network, went from ₹3,86,457 to ₹3,80,498, with a market cap of ₹41.7T. In the same time, Litecoin (LTC) moved down from ₹23,859 to ₹21,497, a change of -9.90%, with a market cap of ₹1.4T. Ripple, or XRP, is another hugely popular token, with a market cap of ₹4.3T. In the last day, its value has changed -7.36%, moving from ₹105.61 to ₹97.85.
Yet in some ways, the crypto crowd were not wrong. In the almost 18 months since Covid-19 was declared a pandemic, the price of bitcoin has risen by about 525 per cent, from just under $8,000 to a three-month high just above $50,000 on Monday. XRP has climbed by a similar amount to trade around the $1.25 mark.
