Privacy may be the only thing DeFi fans and cypherpunks can agree on. In 2020, political censorship is motivating further adoption of cryptocurrencies which are anonymous – that means the senders’ and receivers’ identities are not linked on the blockchain. From the other side, the DeFi community is waking up to the need for confidential transactions, where the amount being sent is hidden. This will be essential for smart contract derivative instruments, peer-to-peer lending and the like.
In 2020, job hunting and conducting job search has become severely challenging due to the corona crisis and other significant events. For graduates gaining their first practical experiences through internships and trainee programs has become almost impossible due to the lack of work experience required.

How a cost reduction could affect the M&A market is challenging to predict.

The emergence of the blockchain is, by now, known in the broader global society, far beyond merely the developer communities. Due to various advances in technology, media attention, and fundamental social interest related to money and wealth.
