Basic knowledge about crypto
Cryptocurrencies, decentralized and independent from banks, are considered the money of the future. Here, you'll learn the most important basics!
Cryptocurrency
Cryptocurrency is a special type of digital cash that is based on a technology called blockchain. Like traditional money, crypto is used to transfer values between individuals or to purchase goods and services.
Blockchain
The blockchain is a decentralized and transparent database that permanently and chronologically stores all transactions of a cryptocurrency. It allows for transaction verification and prevents subsequent manipulations.
Decentralisation
Cryptocurrency is not controlled by a central authority like a bank, but by a decentralized network of computers. Each computer in the network has a copy of the entire blockchain and independently processes transactions.
Personal responsibility
With cryptocurrency, you have sole control over your money and are personally responsible for its security. Always keep your credentials safe and do not forget that there is NO customer service and NO password reset in the world of crypto.
Value fluctuations
Unlike traditional currencies like the Euro, cryptocurrencies can experience big value fluctuations. These can range from a short-term multiplication of their value to a permanent total loss.
Tax liability
When buying and selling cryptocurrency, taxes may apply. This also applies to the purchase of goods and services, as it is considered a sale for tax purposes in Germany. The app from https://blockpit.io can help you keep track.
