Crypto market risks and ECB
Cryptocurrencies pose a risk to financial stability if the developing sector maintains rapid growth over the past two years and financial companies deepen their participation, the European Central Bank said. The cryptocurrency market fell sharply this month after the fall of the large “stabilcoin” terraUSD.
Cryptocurrencies – risk-hungry investors favored the COVID-19 pandemic. Institutional investors were particularly attracted by claims that bitcoin acts as a hedge against inflation and offers high returns despite low-interest rates.
The crypto market peaked at $ 2.9 trillion last November, and now the value of the total crypto market is around $ 1.2 trillion. In its two-year financial stability review, the ECB said exposure to cryptocurrencies by banks and other financial institutions on a large scale could put capital at risk. Such a move could undermine investor confidence, lending and financial markets.
