WHAT ARE CRYPTOCURRENCIES?

Basic knowledge about crypto

Decentralized and independent from banks, crypto is considered the money of the future. Get familiar with the most important basics!

  • Cryptocurrency

    Cryptocurrency is a special type of digital cash that is based on a technology called blockchain. Like traditional money, crypto is used to transfer values between individuals or to purchase goods and services.

  • Blockchain

    The blockchain is a decentralized and transparent database that permanently and chronologically stores all transactions of a cryptocurrency. It allows for transaction verification and prevents subsequent manipulations.

  • Decentralisation

    Cryptocurrency is not controlled by a central authority like a bank, but by a decentralized network of computers. Each computer in the network has a copy of the entire blockchain and independently processes transactions.

  • Personal responsibility

    With cryptocurrency, you have sole control over your money and are personally responsible for its security. Always keep your credentials safe and do not forget that there is NO customer service and NO password reset in the world of crypto.

  • Value fluctuations

    Cryptocurrencies can experience very strong value fluctuations. These can range from a short-term multiplication of their value to a permanent total loss. Caution is advised!

  • Tax liability

    When buying and selling cryptocurrency, taxes may apply. In some countries, this also applies to the purchase of goods and services, as it is considered a sale for tax purposes.
