Cryptocurrencies have earned praise but also notoriety in the financial world over the past decade. Satoshi Nakamoto envisioned a fully functioning decentralized transacting system to be implemented over banks and processors throughout the world when the white paper of Bitcoin was released back in 2008. His concept has since inspired 1600+ other digital assets to emerge into a multi billion dollar industry. Unfortunately, today Satoshi Nakamoto’s inspiration has turned into a hub for traders similar to the stock markets but far more volatile in price. This is due to limiting the number of tokens made available to the market thus prices are based off supply and demand. Bitcoin being the pioneer in this industry has been valued from $0.00 USD up to $20,000 USD, which no other trading asset can match in terms of volatility. Evidently, cryptocurrency has created countless wealth for many individuals in the industry. However, even with endless wealth in digital assets, liquidity is an issue.

To add to the equation, merchants from many regions across the globe do not accept digital currencies as a form of payment. Surely there are plenty of cryptocurrency to fiat exchanges in the market but transaction fees are beyond expensive and funds may not be readily available. So what use is unlimited wealth in digital assets if one is unable to acquire spending power with it?
