Cryptocurrency today is no more an alien to the people in the cryptoworld.  But yes there are few people who are still not aware of the cryptoland nor the cryptocurrencies. These cryptocurrencies were not created in a day or a night, it all started with a movement called cypherhunk in the 1980s. The movement was all about a social and political change using the privacy enhancing technologies like the cryptography, it is named cypherhunk movement because it was started by an activist named cypherhunk.

Cryptocurrencies can be defined as the cryptographic currencies which use cryptography to secure them from the worldwide functioning and correct payments. Cryptography is derived from the Greek word Kryptos and Graphein which literally means secret and writings. The secret way of writing is nothing bur encryption, which is done by complex mathematical theories and computer science algorithms which are very tough and arduous to be cracked. These cryptocurrencies are also called as Digital or Virtual Currencies.
