The cryptocurrency market is one of the deepest yet most unpredictable spaces in the business world. From Bitcoin to Solana to Dogecoin, where do you even start? With new digital assets and blockchain technologies emerging daily, keeping up with the latest trends can be a pretty tricky task.
Traditional market research methods often fall short in the fast-paced environment of crypto. A fast-moving market needs fast-moving research!
Well, it just so happens that artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionising how businesses understand and navigate the crypto landscape. By using AI, companies can quickly analyse large amounts of data simultaneously, identify emerging trends and use that information to make informed decisions!
Bitcoin Beginnings: How It All Started
The first cryptocurrency was launched in 2009, when Bitcoin, created by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto, hit the scene. Bitcoin introduced the idea of a decentralised digital currency and the groundbreaking blockchain technology that powers it.
15 years later, Bitcoin is still one of the most traded cryptocurrencies on the market.
In 2010, a programmer by the name of Laszlo Hanyecz unintentionally made history by buying two large pizzas with 10,000 Bitcoin. This came to about $41 USD, which sounds standard for pizza delivery right? Well, at the time of writing in September 2024, 10,000 Bitcoin would be valued at around $583,000,000 USD…we hope that was some good pizza!
Fast forward a few years to 2015 and Ethereum joined the game, bringing ‘smart contracts’ into the frame. These are digital agreements that automatically execute when specific conditions are met.
Since then, the crypto world has exploded with thousands of digital currencies and tokens, each with its own unique purpose, including DeFi (decentralised finance) and NFTs (non-fungible tokens).
While the market can be unpredictable, with lots of ups and downs, cryptocurrencies continue to gain traction, offering exciting new ways to think about money and finance in our increasingly digital world.
But with all these rapid changes and innovations, how can businesses and investors keep up with such a dynamic and volatile market?
Survey Says: Traditional Methods Just Can’t Keep Up!
Traditional market research methods are often too slow and rigid for the nimble feet of the crypto market. These methods struggle to capture the rapid shifts in investor sentiment and the constant introduction of new technologies and regulations.
By the time a focus group has been put together, surveyed and responses have been analysed, the crypto in question could have boomed in value tenfold!
Another hurdle to overcome is the decentralised nature of cryptocurrencies. As brilliant as it is for the crypto market, this means that data is scattered across multiple platforms and networks, making it difficult to gather insights from multiple different sources.
This lack of real-time data can leave businesses at a disadvantage, unable to respond to market changes in a timely manner. This is where AI steps in…
