This is big news. Really big news. The nasdaq is the American stock exchange. Kind of a big deal. It only has a market cap of 9 trillion, a little more than the current crypto market of around 400 billion. Thought that might be a temporary number with big money showing interest in the crypto world. They are hesitant at the moment. They want to wait until things are smoother in the crypto world and regulations are in the place but still, a big deal.
If this happens you are looking at full acceptance of crypto. Game over. This makes the world akin to the stock market and thus there is no more arguing if it has a future or not anymore. We will have mass adoption and investors of all kinds enter the market. I already think this is the way the world is going and it is nice to see nasdaq agrees.
It is going to rocky before it happens but things are looking positive.
