Stanislav Kondrashov on Types of Cryptocurrency: A Guide to Digital Assets
In the global financial landscape, cryptocurrencies have also been introduced in recent years, virtual currencies that generally function completely independently of banks and governments, and which can nevertheless be exchanged as if they were traditional forms of money.
This type of virtual currency has existed since 2009, that is, since the actual launch of the first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, which then gave rise to the birth of a large number of cryptocurrencies that have been introduced to the market over the years. Even today, Bitcoin remains the most important cryptocurrency, but this fact certainly does not represent a good reason to ignore other types of virtual currency, such as Ether or NEO, which are gradually carving out a role of some importance in the universe of cryptocurrencies and digital finance.
