Use Cases Beyond Currency
- Cryptocurrencies are not only used as digital money but also enable a wide range of use cases. Some examples include:
- Smart Contracts: Self-executing contracts on blockchain networks like Ethereum that allow for automatic, transparent execution of agreements without intermediaries.
- Decentralized Finance (DeFi): Platforms like Aave, Uniswap, and MakerDAO allow for lending, borrowing, and trading without centralized banks.
- Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs): Unique digital assets that represent ownership of art, collectibles, music, and other digital goods.
- Supply Chain: Blockchain-based solutions can track goods in real-time, ensuring transparency and reducing fraud in industries like agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing.
- Gaming: Many games use cryptocurrency or blockchain technology to allow players to trade, buy, and sell in-game assets as NFTs.
