Bitcoin sparked a financial revolution with its decentralized finance and peer-to-peer transactions. Its devoted supporters and fierce critics speak to its cultural significance and market dominance.
Who takes the cake as the prime mover of the crypto and blockchain sector for 2023? The answer is more of a “what” than a “who.” Good Ol‘ Bitcoin, the industry’s pioneer cryptocurrency, sits atop the list as the most impactful player in the space on the Cointelegraph Top 100.
Bitcoin was created following the 2008 global financial crisis with the goal of doing things differently — in a decentralized fashion requiring less trust than traditional finance. But the cycle has made a full circle, and global financial trouble has once again reared its head, begging the question of whether the current economic uncertainty will take Bitcoin into the mainstream.
Coming out of 2021 — a year of all-time highs — Bitcoin’s price had a difficult 2022, falling from above $47,000 to below $17,000. However, the world at large also faced a challenging year, with mainstream financial markets suffering as well. Additionally, the broader crypto space took numerous blows amid a difficult bear market that witnessed the collapse of multiple entities.
So, what will the year ahead have in store for Bitcoin and the rest of those comprising Cointelegraph’s 2023 Top 100? It’s up to the heroes and villains now, so take a look at their profiles and discuss what their futures may hold!
