What’s Cryptocurrency??
Cryptocurrency is a digital currency that uses cryptography to secure transactions and control the creation of new units. Cryptocurrencies are decentralized, meaning they are not controlled by any central authority.
The first cryptocurrency which was created in 2009 was bitcoin which many experts believe as currency of future. Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer system where transactions take place between users directly, without an intermediary. These transactions are verified by network nodes and recorded in a public distributed ledger called the blockchain.
Bitcoin has also come under criticism for its use in illegal transactions, its high electricity consumption, price volatility, thefts from exchanges, and the possibility that bitcoin is an economic bubble.
However it has also been praised for its ability to bring financial independence to people living in countries with unstable currencies. Seeing to this boom now RBI has decided to launch its own cryptocurrency which will be a legal tender.
