Financial Utility

Definition

Financial Utility refers to the practical value or tangible function that a digital asset or blockchain-based service provides within an economic system. This concept extends beyond speculative price movements to encompass an asset’s capacity to facilitate payments, serve as collateral, enable lending or borrowing, or provide access to decentralized financial services. It measures the usefulness of a cryptocurrency or token in real-world applications and within the broader digital economy. Assets with high financial utility offer concrete benefits and solve specific economic problems for users.
