Over time, cryptocurrency scams have become very popular and also the frequency of them has increased. Cryptocurrency scams are mainly successful mainly because there is no mechanism to check for fraud detection, and once the fraud has occurred, there is little recourse that can be made to recover the funds stolen.

The only way forward to avoid them would be to enforce strong regulation and have offchain identity system like Concordium enforces. This would discourage the malicious actor to be easily identified, since every wallet will be linked to a real world Identity without publicly revealing them.

Making sure to enable 2 factor Authentication and having strong passwords are also some of the common security practices to follow. But making sure we have inbuilt security features like I mentioned earlier would make crypto safe and secure for even the not so technical crowd.

The blockchain and cryptocurrency industry is an industry that is constantly changing and evolving. So it’s hard to give you a binary answer inmy opinion. I honestly love both the projects.

However when I look at it from a larger perspective, I realize that the industry is rapidly changing and the top project maybe something we least expect. I see a lot of development happening in the Web3 ecosystem with respect to Polkadot. I see new projects like Concordium which are exploring new paradigms like Faas( Finality as a Service ) and are backed by years of Academic Research. DeFi is changing the way we know Finance.

If there is one thing we can learn from the industry, its that change is the only constant and BTC is King. It has always been.

Ofcourse Ethereum is very innovative, it is infact one of the most innovative projects out there, but BTC will continue to dominate unless Ethereum brings something so huge that it will lead mass adoption and will be seen a better store of value than BTC. Ethereum was never intended to be a store of value.
