    One potential risk of linking blockchain technology to the traditional financial system is the lack of regulatory oversight. As blockchain operates on a decentralized network, it can be difficult for regulators to monitor and enforce compliance with existing financial regulations. This could lead to potential loopholes and vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors. Additionally, the integration of blockchain technology may also face resistance from traditional financial institutions who may be hesitant to adopt a technology that disrupts their established systems and processes.

    Integrating blockchain technology with the traditional financial system also presents scalability challenges. Blockchain networks, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, have faced scalability issues due to the limited number of transactions they can process per second. This could pose a problem when linking blockchain technology with the high transaction volumes of the traditional financial system. However, there are ongoing efforts to address this issue through the development of layer 2 solutions and alternative consensus algorithms.
