7. Conclusion

3 Key Takeaways

Blockchain Technology: Cryptocurrencies are secured by cryptography and rely on a distributed ledger technology called blockchain. This tamper-proof public ledger facilitates secure peer-to-peer transactions without the need for a central authority.

Supply and Demand: The price of any cryptocurrency, including Bitcoin and altcoins, is influenced by supply and demand. Bitcoin has a capped supply that halves roughly every four years, impacting its price dynamics.

Trading with CFDs: It is not mandatory to have the underlying asset in private custody. Traders can gain exposure to the fluctuations in prices of cryptocurrencies, trade in either direction (long or short), and have access to leverage through trading crypto CFDs.
