How many digital currencies are there

1. I can't give you an accurate answer to this question because digital currency covers too many aspects. There is also the possibility that many new cryptocurrencies are born or die every day. Now the world's more well-known digital currencies are bitcoin, dogcoin, Leyte coin, bitstock, reborn coin, Yuanbao coin, Diandian coin and so on. It is said that Ecuador, a small South American country, recently created its own official cryptocurrency
according to incomplete statistics, more than 200 counterfeit coins have been proced since 2014, and more than 100 have survived. The life cycle of Shanzhai coin is generally about 2-3 months. Because the purpose of some Shanzhai coins is to earn money without any innovation. When the price is high enough, the makers will sell a lot to cash out. Without the support of the makers, this kind of counterfeit money will eventually die.

1. Bitcoin

the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto on November 1, 2008, and was officially born on January 3, 2009. According to the idea of Nakamoto, the open source software is designed and released, and the P2P network on it is constructed. Bitcoin is a virtual encrypted digital currency in the form of P2P. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system

2. Litecoin (LTC) is an improved version of digital currency inspired by bitcoin. It was designed and implemented by a programmer who worked in Google. It was released on November 9, 2011. Lightcoin and bitcoin have the same implementation principle in technology, but the creation and transfer of lightcoin is based on an open source encryption protocol, which is not managed by any central organization

4. There is no legal platform for domestic foreign exchange trading. Do not participate in these unknown procts at will, which may cause great losses. Remember, unfamiliar procts and unfamiliar platforms, dare not casually invest.
