Cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual asset secured by cryptography, making it nearly impossible to counterfeit or double-spend. These assets are typically decentralized, meaning they are not subject to government or financial institution control. Cryptocurrencies utilize blockchain technology to record transactions across a distributed ledger. They function as a medium of exchange, a store of value, or a unit of account.
