Correlation: XNO price vs. Bitcoin fees; What's next for nano?I don't believe in charting to predict the future.
Charts are about understanding past events - telling us a nice (hi)story through plotted data.
According to this chart, the speculative demand for nano is correlated with bitcoin fees. Suggesting users migrate to XNO 's efficiency under high-fee environments.
Will that continue to happen in the future?
Nobody knows.
Can other factors have influenced this observed correlation?
Probably, yes.
But people who want to use peer-to-peer decentralized money will probably look for competitive alternatives if they can't use BTC in its current (or future) state.
Nano, and a few other competitors will always be there for these people.
I personally know many who are already doing this.
I did it myself a few years ago, and I have no regrets, despite the price action.
I'm a user first, and I use cryptocurrencies daily - but I see no point in using Bitcoin because it doesn't meet my current demand for P2P self-sovereign currencies. It is as simple as that.
