The Leading Industry Player of Global Blockchain Market: Intel 

The global cryptocurrency landscape has been divided by distinct processes, components, types and end-user industries. Some of the key players operating to boost the day-to-day operations of the crypto marketplace include huge names like Ripple Labs Inc., Intel Corporation, Coinbase. among others. 

Notably, Intel has proved itself utterly helpful in developing bitcoin mining chips. In 2019, the firm launched a system-on-a-chip (SOC) that included hardware that accelerated bitcoin mining and reduced power consumption. And, at present, the hardware is widely utilised by miners in Bitcoin mining.

To be noted, since the inception of Bitcoin in December 2008 digital assets have immensely boomed from being ‘just technological innovations’ to ‘financial instruments’ used by billions of people worldwide. The mining activities have also immensely surged after the ‘crypto boom.’ Such a scenario has steered tech giants like Intel, Microsoft into the blockchain space.

Furthermore, market giants are also filling up their accounts with massive crypto buyings. The chipmaker Intel also seemed to follow the trend, and ultimately has entered into the digital asset trading through one of the leading exchanges in the ecosystem.
