What is Crypto?

• A crypto or cryptocurrency, broadly defined, is currency that takes the form of tokens or “coins” and exists on a distributed and decentralized ledger.
• Beyond that, the field of cryptocurrencies has expanded dramatically since Bitcoin was launched over a decade ago, and the next great digital token may be released tomorrow.
• Bitcoin continues to lead the pack of cryptocurrencies in terms of market capitalization, user base, and popularity.
• Other virtual currencies such as Ethereum are being used to create decentralized financial systems for those without access to traditional financial products.
• Some altcoins are being endorsed as they have newer features than Bitcoin, such as the ability to handle more transactions per second or use different consensus algorithms like proof-of-stake.
