Cryptocurrency is a virtual currency secured through one-way cryptography. It appears on a distributed ledger called a blockchain that's transparent and shared among all users in a permanent and verifiable way that's nearly impossible to fake or hack into. The original intent of cryptocurrency was to allow online payments to be made directly from one party to another without the need for a central third-party intermediary like a bank. However, with the introduction of smart contracts, non-fungible tokens, stablecoins, and other innovations, additional uses and capabilities are rapidly evolving.
Cryptocurrency's value stems from a combination of scarcity and the perception that it is a store of value, an anonymous means of payment, or a hedge against inflation. Cryptocurrency investors can buy or sell them directly in a spot market, or they can invest indirectly in a futures market or by using investment products that provide cryptocurrency exposure.

How do cryptocurrency markets work?

Cryptocurrency markets are decentralized, which means they are not issued or backed by a central authority such as a government. Instead, they run across a network of computers. However, cryptocurrencies can be bought and sold via exchanges and stored in ‘wallets’ . Unlike traditional currencies, cryptocurrencies exist only as a shared digital record of ownership, stored on a blockchain. When a user wants to send cryptocurrency units to another user, they send it to that user’s digital wallet. The transaction isn’t considered final until it has been verified and added to the blockchain through a process called mining. This is also how new cryptocurrency tokens are usually created.

How important will cryptocurrencies be in the future? At the beginning of the era of digital money, supporters and opponents regularly got into each other’s hair. Supporters predicted a world in which cryptocurrencies would squeeze the fiat money out of the market. Opponents predicted mafia practices with complete anarchy and everyone would lose their money. We now know that neither of these scenarios will be the case. What we also know is that cryptocurrencies and blockchain make many things possible that were excluded in the past. Like contributing to the UN’s sustainable development objectives(SDG), the reorganization of renewable energy, but also the sharing of big data or cross-border payments without huge costs. And we are still at the dawn of it, because the first real world applications are only now really being set up. Cryptocurrencies are here to stay. That is why Asian countries have started to regulate and accept blockchain applications and that is why banks all over the world have started to work together with providers such as Ripple (XRP) and IBM/Stellar(XLM).
