The rapid adoption of cryptocurrency will soon pave the way for free global money transfers, according to a top technology investor.
Cathie Wood, the CEO of Ark Invest, says cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are going to spearhead a system of free money transfers worldwide. She cites the already huge reduction in conversion fees from fiat currencies into crypto and back again. The current rate for those transactions is 2-3%, which is a fraction of the 7-8% money transfer services like Western Union charge.
But Wood says crypto transfer fees could soon fall to zero as companies prioritize valuable transaction information above anything else.
The cryptocurrency market approached record highs over the weekend, hitting a total value of $176.6 billion. Bitcoin’s market cap surged above $90 billion last week and reached a high of $96.7 billion recently. That surpassed the capitalization of major equities like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.

Thank you. Yes, the use of cryptos will become our 'second nature' and then we will be glad that we didn't miss out on when we got the chance.
