What is Cryptocurrency
Blockchain technology is ideal for data backup. Even though cloud storage systems are designed to be a reliable source of data storage, they are vulnerable to hackers and infrastructure issues. This problem could be solved by using blockchain as a backup source for cloud data centres or any data.
Crypto allows value to be transferred online without the need for a middleman such as a bank or payment processor, allowing value to be transferred globally, near-instantly, and 24/7 for low fees.
Typically, no government or other central authority issues or controls cryptocurrencies. Peer-to-peer networks of computers running free, open-source software manage them. In general, anyone who wishes to participate is welcome.
How secure is crypto if no bank or government is involved? It's safe because all transactions are verified by a blockchain technology.
A cryptocurrency blockchain is similar to a bank's ledger or balance sheet. Each currency has its own blockchain, which is a constantly re-verified record of every single transaction ever made with that currency.
Unlike a bank's ledger, a crypto blockchain is distributed across the entire network of the digital currency.
It is not controlled by any company, country, or third party, and anyone can participate. A blockchain is a revolutionary technology that has only recently been made possible by decades of computer science and mathematical advances.
