Yes Absolutely it can boost the economy of a country. However, let’s first clarify that cryptocurrencies are just one application of blockchain technology, which is the real enabler for all the crazy changes that we’ll see in the near future.Let’s only consider the obvious for now, such as eliminating middlemen & their fees in multiple types of transactions (financial, real estate, insurance, supply chain, etc.). Speeding up transaction time securely for a fraction of the cost is in itself a huge productivity boost.Benefits aren’t only monetary though. Consider how blockchain will change society by drastically reducing corruption and fraud. No more voting fraud, no counterfeit money & products, no more cooked accounting books.A lot of bad guys will need to re-train for their next criminal career after losing their jobs. They won’t be happy campers.Only the above is mind-blowing. And those are only 2 benefits. Now imagine the exponential growth in benefits that will be enabled by the above and have yet to be discovered. It hurts my mind to think about it.
