According to the Head of CoFTRA, Didodiatmoko, the decline in transaction value was caused by several things, such as the global crypto market, which experienced a decline in trading volume, the potential for a low liquidity crisis that had a negative impact on price stability and market efficiency, as well as soaring selling pressures which caused the price of crypto assets to correct. corrected.
In addition, Didid said that the policy of the Federal Reserve of the United States Government regarding interest rates also caused changes in people's behavior from those who previously chose to transact digital assets to switch to savings.
"However, in terms of using blockchain technology, more and more companies such as Meta, Google, and Twitter are starting to integrate blockchain technology in their business activities. This proves that in the future the development of physical trading of crypto assets is still quite promising," concluded Didid.
