We are using SCRUM to develop modern software projects in the company where I work. These software projects are like financial platforms that you can see around the forum, but we are doing it for fiat purposes. Does agile software development work in crypto projects too? What else could you use to develop BTC projects successfully?

Why not? The bigger problem with scrum is that it does not really work well when the team is remote, distributed and working across various time zones. This is even worse if the project is open source and developers are contributing their own time outside their regular work schedule. When would you run your daily scrum meetings?

All software development can works to any project as long as the software useful not just a project which just doing a start-up only.
Using scrum as long as you can manage a work time with the team is not problem. If you not really comfortable with chat group, you can using video group to use as meeting or talking about the problem project.

Unfortunately, most projects I saw in crypto was what you wrote so they ALWAYS had difficulties with organising the meetings. I think I can state that undistorted Scrum rarely works well in similar projects. But what else could we use in crypto?
