In recent times, the outlook towards cryptocurrencies as a quick money-making instrument has drastically changed for the better, Edul Patel, the CEO and co-founder of crypto investment firm Mudrex tod Gadgets 360 in an exclusive interaction.
“Cryptocurrencies are no longer being seen like a lottery ticket. Instead, investors have begun seeing crypto assets as long-term investment tools. Instead of purchasing crypto assets in bulk, individual as well as institutional investors have regularised their purchases and broken them up into smaller sizes. The global level regulations around crypto that India is working on along with other G20 nations, could benefit the overall industry-consumer relation for the long run, even if it looks like a time-consuming effort for now,” Patel noted.
