If 2017 is a dream for cryptocurrency fans, they will soon be back to reality in 2018. The value of bitcoin has risen by 100 per cent in the past year, but has fallen by nearly 30 per cent so far this year. So do many other currencies. The encryption market will start to recover moderately, but investors are warning of a cruel reality - the instability of cryptocurrency is a double-edged sword. If you want to try to "land on the moon," you have to be ready to hit the earth.
So your opinion of encryption?
I do not understand point of your post, encryption is just an algorithm which keeps records of transactions secure, unlike physical ledgers which can be manipulated by handwork. The sooner the the world realizes that this is a foolproof implementation of traditional ledgers, the faster it will open up to blockchain backaed cryptocurrencies. This is the future and only when investors realize it will they be able to fearlessly invest into it which indirectly affects the prices in a positive manner.
