The crypto-currency market is unlikely to return to rapid growth in the near future, the economist from Allianz believes. Investors should expect an even greater fall in the bitcoin exchange rate. Leading Advisor to Allianz on economic issues Mohamed El-Erian suggested that cryptocurrencies are overvalued, but added that it is premature to talk about the complete death of cryptocurrencies. "Cryptocurrency is not dead, and, of course, the technology of the blockchain is also not dead. We will see more widespread use of blockchain and related technologies by both the private and public sectors." In his opinion, the fair price of bitcoin should be considered the level of $ 5000. "As far as cryptography is concerned, the current situation is the realization that distribution and adoption will not be as swift as crypto - enthusiasts would like." He added that bitcoin is likely to be able to occupy a certain niche in the ecosystem, but it is unlikely that it will be able to become the global currency that bitcoin supporters dream of. Since the beginning of 2018, the total capitalization of the crypto market has decreased by 80%, and the bitcoin rate has fallen by 60%.
