After the ‘Luna incident’, in which tens of trillions of won literally evaporated, the heat of the virtual asset market is rapidly cooling down.

So far, the virtual asset market has experienced a period of cooling and recovery several times, but what about this time?

The so-called ‘Luna Incident’, in which prices plummeted by more than 99.999% in just one week.

As the coin, which had been attracting attention for a while, has collapsed into a situation that is literally nothing more than a piece of paper, the overall virtual asset market is in a state of turmoil.

The price of Bitcoin, the major stock, has collapsed by half compared to when it peaked.

While the US Nasdaq, centered on tech stocks, which had been in sync, rebounded, Bitcoin barely managed to maintain a flat level.

Considering the fact that the virtual asset market has fluctuated several times up to now, there is also an expectation that it may start a rebound soon.

On the other hand, there are many analyzes that recovery will not be easy in the short term.

This is because even ‘stable coins’ designed to maintain a certain value show great volatility, and trust in virtual assets is faltering.

One of the backgrounds where virtual assets have gained value is as the name of virtual currency or cryptocurrency,

It was expected that it would replace the existing currency, but recently even this is being questioned.

[이정환 / 한양대학교 경제금융대학 교수 : 비트코인과 같은 경우는 거래에 쓸 수 없다고 많이 평가를 하고 있습니다. 일반 거래에 비트코인을 쓰기에는 전기세도 너무 많이 나가고 효율성도 너무 안 나온다는 의견도 나오고 있습니다.]

Above all, it is pointed out that the fact that it is still outside the institutional framework increases uncertainty.

A virtual asset that has established itself as an axis of the asset market in a short period of time with the help of so-called decentralization.

However, paradoxically, the value of decentralization is darkening the sustainability of the market.
