Crypto Industry News:

At the moment when Bitcoin's valuation is about 9,000 dollars, it exceeds the size of the Russian monetary base and if it were to be classified as a traditional currency, it would be the eighth highest currency in the world. In terms of the amount of money in circulation, Japan is the leader (conducting a highly adaptive monetary policy), China, the euro area and the United States.

The country's monetary base is a measure of cash in circulation or held in commercial deposits with the central bank (excluding gold reserves). Although the United States is one of the world's largest economies, in the face of a debt of $ 25 trillion, the US ranks fourth in the Asian economies and the euro area.

At the moment, the Bitcoin monetary base is larger than Russia, South Korea, Canada or Norway. Considering the growing interest in cryptocurrencies among institutional and retail investors, its value may still rise.
