Cryptocurrency is a type of digital or virtual currency that uses cryptography for security, making it difficult to counterfeit or double-spend. Unlike traditional currencies issued by governments (like dollars or euros), cryptocurrencies operate on decentralized networks—typically using blockchain technology, which is a distributed ledger that records all transactions transparently and securely. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
