On October 31, 2008, someone using the name Satoshi Nakamoto sent an email to a cryptography mailing list. The email included an attached document that described the digital currency Bitcoin. It also detailed a technology called the blockchain. When Bitcoin launched in 2009, it was money unlike anything that had come before it.
Money hasn't always looked like the bills and coins people use today. The rise of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin are already making an impact on the types of currencies people are using or may use in the future. With any new currencies come pros and cons. Learn about the earliest forms of digital money, how cryptocurrency works, and the potential problems of crypto and mining farms. Then discover the direction crypto may be headed.
