After years of distrust about their security, value, and longevity, cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin appear ready to take on global markets. And this means those in international business must consider how Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will change global finance. Many expect cryptocurrencies to revolutionize companies’ operations, benefiting those who buy and sell across borders.

The Fundamentals of Cryptocurrency

Cryptocurrency is an online payment exchange for goods and services. Bitcoin can be bought as a primary currency and then used as currency. When people exchange funds using Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency, miners verify and record the transaction in a comprehensive public ledger. The ledger is a long chain of chronologically ordered verified transactions. These ledgers are known as blockchains and are a big part of what people are excited about regarding the possibilities that cryptocurrencies open up.

The Advantages of Cryptocurrencies in International Trade

For those who buy and sell goods and services across borders, cryptocurrency provides numerous benefits. The following cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies are poised to disrupt trade finance:

● A currency shortage: When dealing with many international suppliers and buyers from various countries, you must deal with many exchange rates. However, if everyone uses Bitcoin, you’re all trading in the same currency with the same value, without the hassle of constant monetary exchange.

● Money moves quickly: Transactions in cryptocurrency are almost instantaneous. The transfer itself posts immediately, and miners validate the payment in the blockchain in about 10 minutes.

● Bitcoin payments are more secure: When you accept a Bitcoin payment, your money is also safe. Users must have the funds available upfront to ensure the transfer doesn’t bounce or miners cancel the credit transaction.

● Reduced taxes and fees: Because Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer financial system, there are no taxes or transaction fees.

● Detailed documentation: Blockchains formed by cryptocurrency transactions produce clear, safe records that can be monitored and verified. There is talk of tying contracts and shipments to blockchain transactions to make business and logistics easier to track. Procedures could become more convenient, accessible, and transparent with blockchain technology supported by cryptocurrency.

Enterprises are excited about the potential of blockchain technology that Danish shipper Maersk has teamed up with IBM to pilot a blockchain shipment-tracking system.

The Disadvantages of Cryptocurrencies

Of course, cryptocurrency has drawbacks that have stalled its adoption. To begin with, the future of digital currencies is uncertain. While a single Bitcoin is now worth more than an ounce of gold, economists and financial experts warn that cryptocurrency is yet another trend that will result in a bubble burst. There are issues with cryptocurrency from the perspective of the average user. Because Bitcoin is illegal in some countries, you cannot use it everywhere. And, because users must have cash on hand to make purchases, purchasing on credit — which businesses frequently do — is not yet an option.

Bitcoin’s International Trade Future

While many people are debating whether Bitcoin is a tech bubble or a viable long-term currency, some of the blockchain technology created by Bitcoin will likely be around for a long time. Companies and financial institutions are looking at how they can use Bitcoin and similar technologies to make conducting business more accessible and cheaper, from quick transfers to the detailed records created by blockchains. It’s unclear what the future holds for cryptocurrencies. However, savvy investors and business owners should be researching cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies to see how they can benefit and make a move to capitalize on the technology.
