Cryptocurrencies are a form of new financial currency created online.

Like how's fiat


currency created, there are many currencies that exist only in the digital world. The
most popular, Bitcoin, is used as a way to buy and sell other cryptocurrencies or real-
world goods at current market rates.

Cryptocurrencies are not regulated by centralized banks or other central authorities;


instead, they use decentralized networks to confirm transactions through cryptography
(hence the name). These networks automatically create new units of cryptocurrency
with each transaction; this process is called mining (more on that below). Getting
started with cryptocurrencies is easy - download an app like Coinbase. This app will
allow you to verify your identity, set up your wallet, and transfer funds to anyone else
in the world without paying exorbitant fees. This is one of the best ways to use
cryptocurrencies - it's cheap, fast, and secure.

However, suppose mining cryptocurrencies sounds expensive or difficult for you. In


that case, you can also buy cryptocurrency directly from an exchange like Coinbase
and then sell them for cash (or PayPal), gold (Bitcoin or Litecoin), or other real-world
goods on eBay. Doing this allows you access to some of the most popular coins like
Bitcoin and Ethereum without having to mine them; some companies even offer a
single platform that will enable you to do all of these things simultaneously.
Cryptocurrency is a hot new tech that's changing the way the world buys and sells
items. It's a groundbreaking idea that will be revolutionary to society as a whole.

The Potential For Cryptocurrency: How Does This Change Things?

Cryptocurrencies have already changed the world in some small ways - they are an
alternative, more efficient medium of exchange. But there's still so much potential for
this new type of currency. Here are just some of the changes cryptocurrencies can
bring to our current economic system:

Taxes: Cryptocurrencies have low transaction fees, so they are ideal for trading data
or exchanging money with people halfway across the world. This is particularly
relevant for freelancers; crypto is a great way to stay on the right side of international
and local taxes.

alternative form of currency that can be used as a store of value (like gold) rather than
fiat currency.
