Bitcoin ranked as one of the most expensive cryptocurrencies existing by April 2024 - although values changed noticeably. Bitcoin had the most expensive cryptocurrency for a while, but Ethereum was significantly cheaper, with a price that was roughly 30 times less than that of the most well-known digital currency. However, Bitcoin is in a unique position. Ethereum is one of several cryptocurrencies, for instance, that come from blockchains that focus on making financial applications possible.
When one categorizes the different types of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin stands out as it is one of the few that are essentially meant to store digital value. Some describe Bitcoin as a digital version of gold, purely designed to hold or possibly purchasing power over time. It has no other applications built around it, and is considered too slow to perform financial transactions.
Many coins in this ranking stand out as their price seemingly has not changed as much as others. This is because these are stablecoins - cryptocurrencies pegged to the price development of an external asset. This group of digital assets comprise an increasing share within the overall crypto market. Some see these coins as the future of retail payments, whereas others view these coins as a "safe" addition to their crypto investments.

Meat substitutes in Europe
Meat substitute products, based on vegetarian or vegan ingredients, are becoming more and more popular among Europeans. In a recent survey regarding the consumption frequency of meat alternatives in selected European countries, more than one-fifth of the participants stated that they consume plant-based beef three times a week or more often. The biggest markets for plant-based meat substitutes among European countries are Germany and the United Kingdom, with sales of approximately 643 million and 530 million euros, respectively. More than half of the sales of plant-based meat substitutes in Europe are generated in those two countries. While Sweden ranks in sixth place, with about 87 million euros in sales, the Scandinavian country has the highest spending on plant-based meat substitutes per capita among European countries.
Consumption of plant-based products in Italy
The most commonly consumed plant-based food products in Italy are Burgers, cutlets, meatballs, and nuggets. Soy, rice, oat, almond, and coconut beverages are also among the more popular vegetarian options. The share of vegetarians in Italy is approximately 5.4 percent. Nonetheless, plant-based food products are not exclusively consumed by those who follow a non-meat-eating diet. Plant-based products are often consumed by people who wish to reduce their meat intake or simply want to try something new. The most common reason for choosing plant-based products in Italy is health-related. Furthermore, liking the taste or appreciating the convenience of plant-based products are also popular motivations for choosing such products.
