What is a crypto currency
A cryptocurrency like bitcoin is a virtual currency traded peer-to-peer on a blockchain,
independent of centralized authorities like banks and governments. Cryptocurrencies are entirely
virtual, so they are not backed by physical commodities and have no intrinsic value.
How Do Cryptocurrencies Work?
Primarily, cryptocurrencies rely on blockchain technology to complete a transaction via an
intricate P2P network. Once a transfer request is entered into the network, it is validated by the
network and added to a pool of other transactions to create a block of data for the ledger, which is
then entered into the existing blockchain. Once the block is successfully added to the chain, the
transaction is approved and completed.
Are There Investment Opportunities with Cryptocurrencies?
Absolutely. Cryptocurrencies have become established investment commodities among major financial
institutions and have even been adopted by countries such as Australia and Japan. As with any
investment though, there are risks linked to market movements, high volatility and economics.
