is and will its growth in the coming years or not. Replacing the traditional flat currency seems
impossible but this research topic will analyze the future possibilities.
Data collection
The work of others and researchers have done in the last few years would be analyzed critically
to understand how cryptocurrency works. How is it emerging and if it is replacing Flat currency
or not? Different research, articles, and research papers will be studied as general public or
survey would not help in this technical topic. Critical analysis on previous research and stance of
experts would be studied to present findings.
