Cryptocurrencies are secure, decentralized digital currencies that use cryptographic protocols to ensure secure and immutable transactions on a blockchain. The key feature is the absence of control by central authorities, which theoretically makes them immune to government interference.
These digital currencies allow direct transfers between parties using public and private keys, simplifying the process and avoiding high fees from traditional financial institutions. However, its security is not infallible, since events such as computer failures or attacks can put the balance of cryptocurrencies at risk.
Although cryptocurrencies have achieved global status, few know their origin. They emerged as a byproduct of the invention of Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious creator of Bitcoin. Nakamoto did not intend to create a currency, but his innovation has given rise to a global financial phenomenon with a significant impact today.$#- Cryptocurrencies
