❑ Ease of use and highly portable
❑ Untraceable(pseudo-anonymous
transactions)
❑ Transparent and nature
❑ Active involvement of users
❑ Fewer risks for merchants.
❑ Freedom to transact

6. Risk
❑ Hackers:
Cryptocurrencies are targets for highly sophisticated hackers, who have been
able to breach advanced security systems.
❑ Fewer Protections:
If you trust someone else to hold your cryptocurrencies and something gone
wrong, that company may not offer you kind of help you expect from a bank or
debit or credit card provider.
❑ Cost:
Cryptocurrencies can cost consumers much more to use than credit cards or
even regular cash, often due to price validity.
❑ Scams:
Fraudsters are talking advantage of the hype surrounding virtual currencies
to cheat people with fake opportunity.
❑ Lack of transparency:
The anonymous nature of Cryptocurrencies make transparency and
accountability difficult for consumers seeking to ensure the safety of their
investments.

10. Conclusion
Cryptocurrency is an impressive technical achievement, but it remains a monetary
experiment. Even if cryptocurrencies survive, they may not fully displace fiat currencies. As
I have tried to show in this presentation, they provide an interesting new perspective from
which to view economic questions surrounding currency governance, the characteristics of
money, the political economy of financial intermediaries, and the nature of currency
competition.
