Another question is, how much do you really know about crypto? Our YouTube channel, blog, social media platforms and our Telegram group is filled with educational content meant to improve you and your trading skills. But here’s a quick rundown of crypto basics:

  1. A Blockchain is a type of diary or spreadsheet containing information about your transactions. Each transaction generates a hash. Each block refers to the previous block and together make the Blockchain. A Blockchain is effective as it’s spread over many computers, each of which has a copy of the Blockchain. Basically, a Blockchain is a diary that is almost impossible to forge.
  2. The first major application of blockchain technology was Bitcoin which was released in 2009. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and the blockchain is the technology that underpins it. A cryptocurrency refers to a digital coin that runs on a blockchain.
  3. Altcoins are cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin. They share characteristics with Bitcoin but are also different from it in other ways. For example, some altcoins use a different consensus mechanism to produce blocks or validate transactions. Or, they distinguish themselves from Bitcoin by providing new or additional capabilities, such as smart contracts or low-price volatility.
