glossario

Crypto-assets work thanks to blockchain or distributed ledger technology; we can think of it as a kind of ledger or public register, where transactions between two users are stored in a safe, verifiable and permanent way.

Data on exchanges are saved inside cryptographic blocks (so they are safe and anonymous), which makes it possible to trace and check all the transactions made with the virtual currency. These encrypted blocks, a kind of virtual currency DNA, are generated by an algorithm shared by everyone in the community that uses the same currency.
