Unsurprisingly, a small group of industries escaped the devastating effects of the viral widespread and instead were able to flourish. This was the case for the technological sector and, more specifically, the world of cryptocurrencies.

2021, Massive adoption of Blockchain Technology

Even if for the average person, the concept of holding digital assets is still somewhat outlandish, it is safe to say 2021 was yet another great year and one giant step towards mass adoption of blockchain technology, especially since even traditional financial institutions have begun to turn more and more towards crypto.

The chosen area was, of course, blockchain technology, and the timing was impeccable as the young entrepreneur’s complete transition into crypto fortuitously coincided with the industry boom.

In an interview held earlier this year, when asked what attracted him to the blockchain industry, Prylepa mentioned that it is one of the most promising in the whole IT sector.

Prylepa is still Prof-it’s CTO. The company is currently based in the UAE, and one of its first most notable achievements was the creation and development of BTCU.

BTCU, or the Bitcoin Ultimatum project, is a new-generation bitcoin fork designed to work upon some of Bitcoins’ flaws. It is a scalable blockchain with the smart contract and atomic swap capabilities, privacy, leasing, and staking through the UPoS consensus algorithm.
