Call it inevitability. There was always going to be a PYMNTS Provider Ranking of Cryptocurrency Apps. It was simply a matter of timing, like the crypto sector liftoff itself.

As non-fungible tokens (NFTs), blockchain and other crypto-jargon makes its way into the common parlance, even your grandma might be getting ideas about owning a piece of digital art, or even engaging in some good old crypto speculation — the upside of which can be big.

On that note, and without further fiddling about, here are the latest rankings.
