You’ve heard the buzz words - crypto, bitcoin, coinbase. It’s basically a different language…
Don’t worry, I have the bitcoin hashtag in my twitter bio, I’ve got you! #BTC #Bitcoin
So, crypto… It doesn’t involve a bank.
The government is not involved.
In fact - no one knows exactly who invented it.
Cryptocurrency is a digital currency that is decentralized. There’s nothing physical about it, it’s all virtual. It gets its name because it uses security features, like cryptography, to secure transactions and generate units of currency.
After the 2008 financial crisi,s people didn’t trust banks and the government to control their money. So they looked for something else.
Enter… Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is peer to peer currency. You are in full control of your money, can do what you want with your investment at any time, with anyone around the world without any restrictions - like fees or wait times.
Sounds like a win-win, right? Not quite. Investing in crypto can be a wild ride - in April 2021, more than $200 billion worth of BTC was wiped out in a single day!
So… are you going to invest?
