Cryptocurrencies: The key facts
There are thousands of cryptocurrencies, with many having a market cap in excess of $1 billion. However, Bitcoin’s market cap alone exceeded $1.1 trillion USD in October 2021.
Cryptocurrencies are decentralised – meaning price and supply are unaffected by central bank control
Bitcoin was worth a fraction of a penny in 2010 but saw its value balloon to more than $68,000 a coin in November 2021 – via numerous downturns along the way.
Thanks to this…Cryptocurrencies are known for being exceptionally volatile.
Cryptocurrencies are ‘mined’ from the blockchain, a type of technology that can create a permanent, public, transparent ledger system for compiling data.
Cryptocurrency mining releases new cryptocurrency into circulation and rewards the miner with tokens.
