NFT activity is an important element in the Ethereum blockchain, accounting for most network transfers.<\/p>\n

Demand for Bitcoin in the Ethereum ecosystem has decreased dramatically since the beginning of the year.<\/p>\n

The surge in demand for NFTs and DeFi applications is helping Ethereum supporters to muffle the noise of Bitcoin maximalists who have long insisted that only the original cryptocurrency mattered most.<\/p>\n

Since the creation of the Ethereum blockchain, the case for Ether eclipsing Bitcoin has been a recurring subject in crypto.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin maximalists claim that it is still the ultimate type of digital money, stressing that the first cryptocurrency has a valuation of about $810 billion, which is more than twice Ether\u2019s $310 billion.<\/p>\n

NFT Activity Vs DeFi’s<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The crypto market is diverse. Under the domain of blockchain technology are two popular applications: NFT and DeFi.<\/p>\n

Both applications provide huge opportunities in the crypto market. NFTs offer a value proposition while DeFi delivers a platform for financial services and transactions. The engagement in both has risen sharply.<\/p>\n

The primary distinction between NFT and DeFi is that NFT refers to individual digital assets, whereas DeFi refers to the internet-based financial system.<\/p>\n

NFT holds a unit of data that is unique and non-interchangeable, whereas DeFi runs on smart contracts on blockchain on its platform and eliminates intermediaries.<\/p>\n

When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn. Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper.

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency.

Apparently, watching his pets just chillin\u2019 helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food.
