Cryptocurrencies are digital assets that use cryptographical functions to conduct financial transactions. Most cryptocurrencies leverage blockchain technology to gain decentralization, transparency, and immutability. Cryptocurrencies are growing at an accelerated rate, as the blockchain network unlocks new possibilities daily.

The price of cryptocurrencies is greatly determined by their adoption rate. Given the mostly decentralized nature of the market, they tend to remain unaffected by economic and political factors that usually influence traditional currencies. By trading CFDs on Cryptocurrencies, a trader speculates on their price movement without taking ownership of the underlying asset. Cryptocurrencies are an extremely volatile asset class due to massive amounts of short-term speculative interest, therefore, defining and controlling risk is essential.
