What exactly is cryptocurrency?
Cryptocurrencies are digital tokens that have a value, just like a $10 note is a physical token that happens to have $10 worth of value.
The difference is that digital currencies are purely electronic. Just like a photograph on the Internet can be copied and replicated over and over again until the original is worthless, the same thing could happen to a coin.
In order for a cryptocurrency to have value, a coin needs to be unique and unreplicable. The Bitcoin blockchain was the innovation which made this possible.
How to get started
1. Choose a cryptocurrency
A lot of people start with Bitcoin or Ethereum before exchanging other cryptocurrencies.
Our coin guides cover some of the most commonly traded cryptocurrencies on the market today.
2. Find a cryptocurrency exchange
Find an exchange to buy cryptocurrency.
You'll usually start by exchanging fiat currency (such as AUD) to your chosen cryptocurrency. After that, you might trade cryptocurrency to cryptocurrency.
