Cryptocurrency is a form of digital or virtual currency that relies on cryptographic techniques for secure financial transactions. Operating on decentralized blockchain technology, cryptocurrencies use encryption to secure transactions, control the creation of new units, and verify the transfer of assets. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies provide decentralized, transparent, and pseudonymous means of transferring value globally. Blockchain, the underlying technology, ensures immutability and transparency, fostering trust in a trustless digital financial ecosystem.
