Impact on
stock market of Upcoming Cryptocurrencies on the Financial Industry
According to Lee (2015) am ong all
the current financial and economic issues the Cryptocurrencies have become the
most trending topic of discussion. E-Commerce has achieved rapid growth since
the crisis of Dotcom. With every growing internet users, the number of online
shoppers and online sale is rapidly increasing which is also transforming the
retail industries. After the Dotcom bubble burst, some serious safety concerns
were raised about the online shopping and the use of credit cards. However,
following the growth potential of e-commerce internet retailers have made
massively oversized investments in e-commerce. The financial institutes are
using Cryptocurrencies as the trusted third party for manufacturing the
electronic payments. However, Cryptocurrencies was working slowly because of
the control of financial institutes, despite the satisfactory results of
Cryptocurrencies for most of the transaction. Future prices of Cryptocurrencies
are not foreseeable in an efficient market whereas the variations are random
hence the number of Cryptocurrencies are following a random walk. Highly
significant randomness tests are applied to test the efficiency of Bitcoin while
avoiding the spurious results to capture the Bitcoin's dynamics (Lee 2015).
For some people, the trading in
the market of Cryptocurrencies fulfills the same purpose as the traditional
stock market trading does. The main reasons behind the investment in the
conventional stock market are motivation, ownership and profit maximization and
Cryptocurrencies market also fulfills all three reasons. Therefore, investors
can use Cryptocurrencies to go global.
Impact on
currency of Upcoming Cryptocurrencies on the Financial Industry
Extance (2015 has described that
in the context of the crypto economy the currency could mean different things
instead of the underlying meaning of serving as the payment mechanism in
exchange of good and services. Moreover, in crypto-economy, the money is also
referred to as something valuable that can be developed usefully in some
situations. It can also be described as a value's unit that can be used and
earned in specific economic systems. Cryptocurrencies are similar to the idea
of app coin, currency or token that allows the access to the different
financial system. The continued cultural and market presence of Bitcoin prompts
the many people to ask the question about the functions and effects of
Cryptocurrencies on the current monetary policies. It is expected that the
digital currency has the potential to affect the central banks' abilities to
manage the goals of the national system. On the other hand, some analysts believed that
the central banks could use this opportunity and gained considerable advantages
if they issue their own national Cryptocurrencies. However, soon, these
outcomes don't see achievable (Extance 2015).
