This thesis examines and compares three distinct types of cryptoassets, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tether from technological, economic, and functional perspectives. The theoretical section introduces the topic and sets differences between the selected networks and tokens, while the empirical section evaluates the extent to which each asset fulfils the role of a medium of exchange in real world use. Methodologically, the study relies on a unified data framework and three pillars of practical circulatability: base-layer transaction activity, stability measured by price volatility, and transaction costs in U.S. dollars. The findings indicate that Tether performs best as an everyday medium of exchange, whereas Bitcoin and Ethereum may be seen more as risky investment assets.
