Glossary/Cryptocurrency

Cryptocurrency

A type of digital or virtual currency that uses cryptography for security. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin are examples.

Cryptocurrencies are bearer assets secured by private keys: whoever controls the key controls the funds. Some are volatile commodities like BTC and ETH; stablecoins are designed to hold a steady value instead.
