At IG, our markets for bitcoin, bitcoin cash, ether and litecoin are quoted against the US dollar. This is how you’ll usually see these cryptocurrencies quoted elsewhere, too.
Stellar Lumens presents a noble case for itself. The blockchain network wants to allow users to send money anywhere. This is very similar to the goal of XRP or ripple. Ripple is six times larger than Stellar and easier to use.

Here’s our guide to crypto, and why so many people are talking about it these days.
Bitcoin is down roughly 20% week-over-week, around 30% from its all-time high of nearly $65,000 early last week. The market cap of the coin has dipped below $1 trillion. The tumble has been less severe for Ethereum, which hit an all-time high just yesterday but has since dropped 13% as the broader market has crawled back.

There has also been a big debate on Safemoon tokenomics. Most of the competing coins have more appealing and innovative tokenomics than Safemoon. Whereas the Bitrise coin has an automated buyback and burning process, Safemoon is burning manually. This means the regulation of the Safemoon token liquidity is less transparent.
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...
