Abstract

Blockchain, the technology behind bitcoin, is revolutionizing various aspects of life, particularly in the finance sector. This study aims to bridge the gap between blockchain and its applications in the financial industry. It explores the concept of Cryptonomics, wherein cryptocurrency miners and users seek to transform the current financial payment structure into digital currency. The study draws information from academic and non-academic sources, utilizing qualitative analysis. Through informative articles, the paper examines the blockchain and cryptocurrency markets, providing readers with up-to-date developments. Numerous ongoing studies and financial use cases demonstrate the numerous advantages of blockchain technology. However, challenges related to security, regulation, and industry application persist alongside its efficiency and self-governance benefits. The paper presents case studies of technology and financial companies utilizing blockchain applications in their business processes and suggests potential future directions for further exploration. Overall, this research sheds light on the transformative potential of blockchain in the financial industry.
