The Cryptocurrency system is a payment system that doesn't depend on banks to confirm transactions. It's a peer to peer system that allows anyone in the world to send and receive money. Instead of being actual cash that is exchanged and carried around in real life the cryptocurrency payment system functions as digital entries into an online database which outlines specific transactions. When you transfer funds from cryptocurrency and make transactions, they are logged in the public ledger. The cryptocurrency is kept inside digital wallets.

Cryptocurrency is named so because it makes use of cryptography to validate transactions. This implies that advanced coding is utilized in storing and transferring cryptocurrency data between the wallets and public ledgers. The purpose of encryption is to offer security and protect.

One of the first cryptocurrencies was Bitcoin that was created in 2009 and is still the most popular in the present. The main reason people are interested in cryptocurrency is trading to make money, and the speculators sometimes driving prices to the sky.
