“The Only Constant in Life Is Change.”- Heraclitus

Around 2018 we were introduced to a new form of transition for buying and selling digital assets which we couldn’t even touch with intangible money.

These digital assets were called NFTs, and the currency is called Cryptocurrency. I don’t need to give you a lesson about these two because if you are reading this, you know about them, but if you don’t, I will leave links to read about them.

This changed our thinking of transactions, assets and liabilities, and currency. and gave us a new world, “Metaverse.”

Now cryptocurrency is a very big portion of wealth used by people to buy NFTs, do cross-border payments, and do investments but how will it be accounted for? How will you track the money? How will you prepare an invoice?

These are the questions that Gil Hilderbrand and Ken Gaulter answer with their new venture, “Gilded.”

Why Cryptocurrency is important?

Gilded Inc. is a crypto accounting tool designed to help businesses integrate digital assets into their existing accounting process. This company helps with crypto accounting tools, including bookkeeping, invoicing, payments, financial reports, tax compliance, and security, enabling businesses to simplify and streamline their accounting process.

Its interface is user-friendly, which will help you to have total control over your company's finances.

The adoption of cryptocurrency in the field of e-commerce and retail is rising. According to Coinmarketcap Cryptocurrency market value on July 18, 2023, was 1.2 trillion. And will increase as we move closer to making the metaverse a reality.

Apple just launched its latest product Vision Pro which is an AR (Augmented Reality) headset and showed the world that the metaverse isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

It will keep you updated with the world and free up your time exponentially which is crucially important for an entrepreneur. Being on the blockchain makes you more secure and will keep you in competition with your rivals.

This can open a business to a whole new class of consumers. Nowadays, employees of big corporations demand their salary in cryptocurrency to avoid the hassle of buying it by themselves and paying taxes.
