The crypto industry is evolving and attracting new participants every day. The crypto world is dynamic and always changing, that’s why the industry is constantly updated with new technologies and trends. The year 2021 has been a roller-coaster ride of a year for the cryptocurrency ecosystem, with many countries across the world taking decisive steps to either regulate or place an outright ban on this emerging, relatively-nascent asset class. According to a recent report by the Global Legal Research Directorate (GLRD) of the Law Library of the US Congress, 51 countries have placed heavy restrictions on all cryptocurrency-associated transactions. Out of these, eight jurisdictions like China, Iraq, Bangladesh and others have put in place absolute bans, declaring crypto to be completely illegal. On the other hand, 42 jurisdictions have imposed implicit bans. This implies banning operations of crypto exchanges, along with prohibiting financial institutions from dealing and offering services involving cryptocurrencies. But numbers worldwide suggest that despite this, cryptocurrency adoption is exponentially surging. Venture capital funds across the world invested a cumulative of $30 billion in this space in 2021, a figure more than the total of all investments made over the last few years.
