CRYPTOMONNAIE (CRYPTOCURRENCY)
A cryptocurrency is a currency distributed among peers without requiring a central bank, often referred to as an active cryptographic, cryptographic currency, or even cyber money. It uses cryptographic concepts and involves the user in the process of issuing and settling transactions. Therefore, these digital currencies are virtual currencies because a lack of physical support distinguishes them: neither coins nor banknotes are possible, nor can they be paid by check or bank card. The term "cryptocurrency" comes from the encryption methods used to protect the network. Blockchains, which are organizational methods for preserving transaction data integrity, are essential components of many cryptocurrencies.
A cryptocurrency is a form of payment for goods and services that can be traded online. Many companies have provided their currencies, also called tokens, and they can be exchanged directly for a product or service offered by the business. Think of them as arcade chips or chips from a casino. To access a product or service, you need to replace the actual currency with a cryptocurrency.
Cryptocurrencies work using a technology called a blockchain. Blockchain is a decentralized technology that manages and captures operations distributed across multiple computers. Part of the appeal of this technology is its protection.
Understanding Cryptocurrencies
Cryptocurrencies are systems that allow encrypted online payments, expressed in virtual "tokens," represented in the system by book entries. "Cryptography" refers to the various encryption algorithms and cryptographic techniques, such as elliptical curve encryption, public-private key pairs, and hash functions, that secure these records.
