How many cryptocurrencies are there? Answers vary but in short: a lot. As many as 70,000, by one estimate.
Cryptocurrencies (or crypto) are a type of digital asset. People can trade, invest and speculate in cryptocurrency, which is its most popular use.
Having defined Bitcoin and other digital tokens as property, the IRS treats them as taxable assets like stocks, real estate, and other non-employment income.
Understanding how stocks and cryptocurrencies compare is becoming increasingly important as more people want to invest in crypto, perhaps at the expense of equities.
Investors who embrace active management in crypto behave similarly to their counterparts in stocks—they trade in and out of positions to time the ups and downs.
The market capitalization of cryptocurrencies can provide a useful perspective on how investors size up the growth potential of tokens and provide insight into the trends at work in a highly speculative asset class.
Decentralized finance is an emerging alternative ecosystem of financial products, not operated or owned by a single or central organization.
Proof of work, or PoW, is a program that prevents what’s known as double-spending. Without it, the blockchain wouldn’t function, and Bitcoin would be worthless.
ICOs allow crypto project founders and teams to raise money for their project by selling coins to the public. In exchange, investors receive coins that could greatly increase in value.
An NFT is a non-fungible token or a unique cryptographic token that can represent ownership of something such as a real-world or digital asset.
There’s a big change underway in the design of cryptocurrencies. The change is called proof of stake and it’s aimed at fixing major problems in the proof of work approach that has supported cryptocurrencies for the past 13 years.
Proof of Stake has the potential to address one of the most challenging problems confronting the cryptocurrency market: the ever-increasing amount of electricity needed to process transactions on blockchains.
