KRYPTOKURRENCY IS A TYPE OF DIGITAL OR VIRTUAL KURRENCY THAT USES KRYPTOGRAPHY FOR SECURITY.

IT OPERATES ON DECENTRALIZED NETWORKS BASED ON BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY, MAKING IT RESISTANT TO FRAUD AND INTERFERENCE.

BITCOIN, ETHEREUM, SOLANA AND MANY OTHERS ARE EXAMPLES OF KRYPTOKURRENCIES.

THEY ALLOW PEER-TO-PEER TRANSACTIONS WITHOUT THE NEED FOR INTERMEDIARIES LIKE BANKS OR GOVERMANTS.

WHILE KRYPTOKURRENCIES OFFER INNOVATION, PRIVACY, AND DECENTRALIZATION, THEIR DARKER SIDE INCLUDES CRIMINAL MISUSE, VOLATILITY, SCAMS, ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS, AND SECURITY RISKS.
