Data Science in Crypto

Under the hood of every cryptocurrency protocol, we will always find that Blockchain Technology is the engine that allows it to keep running. If we trace back the technologies that made its application possible, we will find that the science behind it has been around for decades, and only just recently became ubiquitous. Gradual changes over the last couple of decades contributed to the recent uptake of cryptocurrencies. More and more companies are now able to collect increasingly larger amounts of data. All that data was just lying there, like gasoline waiting for the spark that would transform it into valuable, usable information with real-world applications.
