Top 3 price prediction BTC, ETH, XRP: Massive blockchain adoption accelerates but prices cool
- Ethereum is in better shape and may behave better than Bitcoin.
- Prices do not reflect improved sentiment regarding the Blockchain industry.
- XRP continues to suffer in its umpteenth attempt to jump to the precipice.
The Blockchain industry is living the best moments of the year.
Although prices are not reflecting this, there is confidence that the adoption by the traditional industrial base will finally accelerate sharply.
In Germany, the banking lobby demands to work towards the creation of a programmable digital Euro and the English bank Standard Chartered joins the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance.
The possibilities of creating new solutions based on programmable tokens are almost endless.
Blockchain technology allows the traceability, collateral verification, and unmediated title deeds, also the authentication of absolutely anything without intermediaries, fast and at a little cost.
The Blockchain universe is practically infinite, and most of us get our hopes up just by reaching the Moon. Perhaps we fall short of understanding the potential of creating and distributing the wealth that this technological advance holds.
