Well cryptocurrency adoption is on the high rise at the moment, from industries to hedge funds to cooperations and private businesses who are beginning to accept cryptocurrency payment showing that cryptocurrency has really bright futures ahead.
Recent news shows a report of Russia possibly accepting cryptocurrency payment from next month which would be quiet significant and no doubt for a fact I believe cryptocurrency investment would soon dominate the world of finance and some of the reasons for these is explained below.
These reasons include;
Programmable Finance and DeFi (Decentralized Finance)
Well the feature of decentralized platforms and programmable finance makes it quiet fitting for cryptocurrency to dominate the world of finance, cryptocurrency with decentralized platforms offers financial services in a decentralized manner the likes of which is not seen by traditional finance.
It's possible for financial operations to easily be carried out with automatic self executing smart contract, no third party or intermediary is required for this to take place, decentralized finance offers so much more than traditional financial services could and things like borrowing and lending is easily done with no one need to stand in between as middle man thereby reducing costs.
So cryptocurrency blockchain run programmable finance makes it all to possible for cryptocurrency use and investment to dominate the world of finance.
Globalization and Cross-Border Transactions
When it comes to cross border transactions there isn't any other means as faster as cryptocurrency payment method, traditional methods doesn't compare and infact when it comes to speed of carrying cross border payment they pale greatly in comparison and crypto payment method is much faster and much cheaper.
I mean the cheap cost of cryptocurrency transactions especially when it comes to cross border payment makes it all too suitable and easily adoptable for trading in the global stage as some other renowned methods of payment like the SWIFT payment method still doesn't come close to cryptocurrency payments methods which is faster, cheaper and much reliable.
So this is another attribute that I believe makes cryptocurrency much suited and likey to dominate the world of finance.
Growing Use Cases and Utility
Well cryptocurrency has more usecase more than fiat, cryptocurrency goes beyond being used as payment, yes cryptocurrency when it comes to payment is swift and reliable but then cryptocurrency is really used for whole lot of other things that isn't really about solely for transactions as each cryptocurrency has its unique utility that makes it stand out or unique even among other cryptocurrency asset and class apart from fiat so to speak.
Cryptocurrency like Bitcoin for starters are a proven good store of value, also most cryptocurrency enables decentralized application to be built on it like Ethereum for instance some chains support gaming and it's economies in general and so on and so forth, so may diverse cryptocurrency has their own utility which makes it stand out so for this reason the demand will always be there for cryptocurrency, either for payment or the other usecase it serves.
Cryptocurrency ability to be used as payment method and also provide other useful services or be used for other things highlights truly why it could be set to dominate the world of finance.
Challenges to Consider
Regulatory Uncertainty: This is one of the notable challenge of cryptocurrency in dominating the financial world the fact that not all place does the government look on cryptocurrency with favour, some look at it with utter disdain and ban it even and for this it could affect cryptocurrency quest to reach great heights.
So regulator uncertainty is one of the major challenges facing cryptocurrency and could acts as a hindrance in crypto's bid to achieve financial dominance.
Volatility: This market is volatile and as such anyone coming in here should not expect any thing else or any unrealistic expectations, you must be willing to accept the risk that comes with a volatile market so inasmuch as cryptocurrency investment is good but the volatile nature makes it a high risk asset classe.
So extreme volatility is one of the reason why cryptocurrency bid to dominate the financial landscape would not happened or delayed at least.

Conclusion
You must understand the workings of cryptocurrency and the fact that this technology it's built is really a great one and truly despite any challenge cryptocurrency is man's finance best option and I will be sharing on this subsequently.
