Speculative trading can significantly impact the demand and supply dynamics. If there is widespread belief that the price of a cryptocurrency will rise in the future, it can attract more buyers and increase demand, driving up prices.
Conversely, if negative sentiment prevails, leading to expectations of price declines, it can increase selling pressure and decrease demand.
While adoption is an important driver of demand, supply also plays a crucial role in the cryptocurrency market.

That's corrrect because Utopia places a high emphasis on user identity protection. No details can be traced back to the user, providing anonymous transactions and communication.
There is no single point of failure, as Utopia operates on a peer-to-peer network model. This means that the network is resilient, and no single entity controls or governs it.
Privacy is fundamental to Utopia; users' communication cannot be intercepted, read by third parties, or traced back to their physical location.
