Key Trends For Crypto In 2021
“In 2021, the biggest experiment will be a migration of stablecoin settlement to cheaper blockchains to leave Ethereum. There are currently several blockchain solutions competing for this service - such as Algorand, Solana, Polkadot, and some other Ethereum second-layer scaling solutions to address this issue. However, the greatest challenge of 2021 will be the competition between those who can capture some market share from Ethereum to settle those transactions,” he says.
“Another trend of 2021 in this segment would be the differentiation of stablecoin space out of the USD to other currencies. Euro is the obvious second candidate, but other emerging market currencies will try to increase their market share as well,” he adds.
A New DeFi Interfaces Will Pop Up
Mr Klumov says: “DeFi will continue to evolve and shape its product-market feed to serve more and more customers. New interfaces will pop up to facilitate and streamline Decentralised Finance iterations, specifically for institutions. The existing Metamask tool as the #1 DeFi management interface is not good enough for institutions to transact.
“Thus, there will be more institutional-grade solutions to connect to DeFi; more platforms experimenting with Crypto Forex, reputational lending, or more efficient collateral management in the existing overcollateralised loan market,” he concludes.
