Executive Summary
“Bitcoin is a remarkable cryptographic achievement and the ability to create something that is not duplicable in the digital world has enormous value.” Eric Schmidt, Executive chairman Alphabet
Bitcoin is a digital, decentralized, partially anonymous currency, not backed by any government or other legal entity, and not redeemable for gold or other commodity. It relies on peer-to-peer networking and cryptography to maintain its integrity. Its proponents argue that Bitcoin has many properties that could make it an ideal currency for mainstream consumers and merchants. For example, bitcoins are highly liquid, have low transaction costs, can be used to send payments quickly across the internet, and can be used to make micropayments. This new currency could also hold the key to allowing organizations such as Wikileaks, hated by governments, to receive donations and conduct business anonymously.
Amazingly, as of October 2011, a bitcoin (currency ticker BTC) is worth about two U.S. Dollars (USD), there are about $20 million worth of bitcoins in existence, there are probably around 20,000 Bitcoin users, and over $300,000 worth of bitcoins are traded every day.
Although the Bitcoin economy is flourishing, users are anxious about Bitcoin’s legal status and the possibility of a government crackdown. Some point to Bitcoin’s ability, like all digital and anonymous currencies, to facilitate money laundering, tax evasion, and trade in illegal drugs and child pornography. Indeed, the U.S. government prosecuted and shut down the creators of e-gold, a digital currency backed by gold, under state and federal laws for conspiracy to commit money laundering, and also for providing services to those involved in “child exploitation, credit card fraud, and wire (investment) fraud”. Others point to governments’ purported interests in protecting their economies and monopolies on minting new money. These individuals point to the successful prosecution and conviction of the creator of the Liberty Dollar, a paper and coin based currency backed by gold and other precious metals.
Hence, no faith or trust towards the financers or politicians was required in case of Bitcoin, but only in Nakamoto’s well-designed algorithms. Not only the public ledger of Bitcoin, i.e. the ‘block chain’ seemed to fend off fraud, but also kept the money supply of Bitcoin growing at a predictable rate due to the prearranged release of the virtual currency. The Bitcoin network came into existence with the release of open source Bitcoin client and with the issuance of the first Bitcoin. Satoshi mined 18 the first 50 Bitcoin which are famously known as the “Genesis Block”.
In the same year the exchange rate of Bitcoin was first published by liberty standard at $1 for 1,309.03 BTC. Within a couple of years, around February 2011, Bitcoin achieved dollar parity and was now being accepted all over the world as a mode of payment for a plethora of products.
Bitcoin is a digital, decentralized, partially anonymous currency, not backed by any government or other legal entity, and not redeemable for gold or other commodity. It relies on peer-to-peer networking and cryptography to maintain its integrity. A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending.
One of the most hyped IT buzzwords to have emerged in the last couple of years. Blockchain has found its way into major media headlines on a near-daily basis, but a year and a half ago, it was a word used by a relatively small number of people to describe the peer-to-peer distributed ledger technology.

Digital Currency Systems: Emerging B2B e-Commerce Alternative During Monetary...cjwells
Digital currency systems form the triumvirate nexus of government policies, money, and technology. Each has a global reach and responds to the needs of business and consumers. E-commerce depends on private and government financial institutions to enable payment transactions, the basis of e-commerce. As the United States financial crisis continues B2B enterprises may need to abandon traditional payment transaction systems and look to alternatives in the form of Web-based digital currency systems accessed via the Internet. The various types of digital currency systems generally fit into five categories: barter exchange software systems, non-bank digital currency payment systems, digital precious metal systems, online value transfer software systems, and online stored value transaction software systems. Digital currency systems are not online banking. Digital currency systems use private electronic monies: electronic tokens, barter-exchange currencies, digital cash, and stored value e-cash vouchers.
We explore the history of money against a backdrop of banking and government policies that cause cyclic monetary crises, how these current digital systems operate, how business can thereby benefit in their use, and why digital currency systems are such an underutilized service in the United States.

DIGITAL STOCKS USING BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY THE POSSIBLE FUTURE OF STOCKS?IAEME Publication
Bitcoin is the first and most successful digital currency in the world. It trends in
the news almost daily, with glowing reviews of the many benefits of an alternative and
international currency. This paper explains the innovative aspect of the technological
platform used to transfer Bitcoin from one party to another. This technology is called
the Blockchain. The Blockchain eschews a bank or other intermediary and allows
parties to transfer funds directly to one another, using a peer-to-peer system. This
disruptive technology has done for money transfers what email did for sending mail —
by removing the need for a trusted third party just as email removed the need for using
the post office to send mail. This technology mainly used for peer-to-peer money
transfers, can also be extended to accomplish other forms of transfers. Blockchain
technology can be used to buy and sell stocks. Real world stocks can be tokenized into
digital stocks which can be easily transferred using peer-to-peer. These digital stocks
act similar to digital currency whose price is real time and fluctuates. Stocks
exchanged completely peer-to-peer could resolve many of the issues facing the stock
market today, including high frequency trading and short sales.

INTRODUCTION
Cryptocurrency is a scheme that has been taking a lot of strength since 2009 and has penetrated all spheres of world economies. For many specialists, these coins considered the new revolution of the money and for many others, something that has no relevance and they tend to disappear, which itself can secure in this essay is that we are living significant changes, where everything takes real virtual importance to the development of trade electronic.
Just seven years since its launch has become Bitcoin virtual currency more. Essential for all transactions of goods and services, or currency market network, currently moving figures close to 440 million dollars per hour (coinmarketcap). Being a decentralized currency has great advantages and its Once disadvantages that capture the eyes of governments and central banks, there is the possibility that this money may come to replace traditional currency for any virtual transaction in the exchange of goods and services refers thanks their low transaction costs.
It is a new virtual currency, which begins to circulate in 2009 created by the developer pseudonym, Satoshi Nakamoto, of course, Japanese origin. Little is known about this person or persons who developed the protocol Bitcoin, since not known with certainty source from which they come, indeed considered that it was a group of people called genii mathematicians to create a currency based on a scheme peer-to-peer electronic cash system with cryptographic security. It is indicating that operations are user to user without entities centralized controlling issue. Therefore, a limited amount of this is determined equivalent to 21 million by the year 2033 Bitcoin currency due to its high and sophisticated level mathematical. So much so that in 2015 this pseudonym "Satoshi Nakamoto" obtains " award
innovation without limits "Granted by the average English communication" The Economist "By the invention capable of altering the traditional financial system.
Bitcoin is a decentralized currency without any global government body that regulates and control issue, have planted the following questions why use one comes intensifying each day despite the restrictions and discourage exerted by governments and central banks? Why is it essential that central states regulate the use of this type of coins? Why is Bitcoin considered source of investment? In addition to that if they are free
market forces that determine price, why other factors influence it? They are questions analyzed and to respond in the course of this trial. For the Suddenly, if you can ensure that this type of virtual currencies have enormous potential and that is for some global economies they are already studying how to create their currencies virtual to allow free virtual trade without restrictions.

By examining digital currency, we aim to better understand
the impact it can have on the broader payments ecosystem.
While the concept of digital currency was introduced more
than a decade ago, recent developments have accelerated
its adoption, such as the emergence of fat-backed digital
currencies known as ‘stablecoins’; a growing community
of developers building applications on top of blockchain based networks; and rising interest among central banks to
introduce sovereign digital currencies.
Reference Architecture for Cryptocurrency in BankingITIIIndustries
The Internet has now become an environment and source for innovation development that has impacted a wide range of industries. The platform has enabled entrepreneurs to create groundbreaking solutions that have had a disruptive and transformative effect on the lives of many people. While banking had dealt with several innovations such as internet payment providers, more recently a virtual alternative to cash has begun to emerge. Although the notion of true electronic cash has been considered for some time, the availability of a practical electronic currency has only recently gained actual adoption that is forcing many financial institutions to reconsider the potential long-term impact. We provide some insight into the latest trends in cryptocurrency and propose a reference architecture for adopting this form of financial asset in a central banking scenario; i.e. a Fiat based cryptocurrency. The presently used cryptocurrency are based on a peer to peer scheme and hence we outline an IT solution that will accommodate a centrally issued electronic currency
A digital currency ( digital currency , electronic money, electronic currency, digital
money, electronic money (meaning different from Japanese English electronic
money ), electronic currency) is a currency , money, or money. It refers to all assets
such as , and is mainly managed, stored, and exchanged mainly over the Internet in
digital computer systems.
The cryptocurrencies were designed to be medium of exchange. The blockchain technology on which cryptocurrencies are based on offers many possibilities for computer science and all future businesses. For the past decade experts as well as laypeople have been experiencing cryptocurrencies in extremes. They either have a very positive attitude or a very negative attitude towards them. Experts who have very positive attitudes towards them believe that cryptocurrencies create new ways of conducting business and new ways of trust relationships are managed. Experts who have very negative attitudes towards them often emphasize the fact that they are often linked to negative connotations such as being a tool for criminal activities or skipping social responsibilities such as tax avoidance and corruption. They also emphasize the fact that it is a new, unexplored technology and an unstable market. The blockchain technology on which cryptocurrencies are based on offers man possibilities for computer science and all future businesses. For the past decade experts as well as laypeople have been experiencing cryptocurrencies in extremes. There are more than 1,600 cryptocurrencies in circulation today, with a combined market cap of over 289 billion, according to Coin Market Cap data. Investors around the world are eager to trade in this rapidly growing space, and a slew of cryptocurrency platforms have emerged to meet the need for infrastructure to support the exchange of digital currencies. Though they call themselves exchanges, from an investors standpoint they function similarly to e brokerages and their rapid rise is reminiscent of the explosion of electronic discount brokerage firms during the dotcom bubble of the late 1990s.

The future of cryptocurrency—some challenges
As we gaze into our crypto ball, let’s see what the future of cryptocurrency has in store for traders. With many experts estimating that the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic has hastened the decline of cash by almost five years, few are asking whether digital currencies will actually succeed (they have already). Instead, it’s a matter of when they’ll go mainstream. Nevertheless, there are some challenges ahead.
Perceptions
A significant generational divide exists when it comes to adoption rates of cryptocurrencies. Older generations are typically more sceptical of crypto’s long-term viability, expressing fears about volatile financial bubbles as well as uncertainty over how cryptocurrencies actually work.
This paper aims to provide a foundation for anyone looking to understand the potential of digital assets such as crypto currencies as a future asset class.

Global searches for bitcoin total more than 29 million each month. It has the highest market cap and is the most widely used coin.
A cryptocurrency is a type of digital currency that is created and controlled using sophisticated encryption methods, or cryptography. With the invention of Bitcoin in 2009, cryptocurrency made the transition from an intellectual concept to (virtual) reality.
While interest in Bitcoin grew over the years, it really came to the attention of investors and the media in April 2013, when it reached a record high of $266 per bitcoin after increasing by a factor of ten in just the previous two months.
At its height, Bitcoin’s market value exceeded $2 billion, but a 50% decline soon after triggered a heated discussion over the future of cryptocurrencies in general and Bitcoin in particular.
Will these alternative currencies eventually replace traditional ones and attain the same level of ubiquity as dollars and euros? Or are cryptocurrencies a short-lived trend that will soon fizzle out? Bitcoin contains the solution.
Future of Cryptocurrency
As institutional money joins the market, several economic analysts forecast a significant change in the crypto market. 3 There is also a chance that cryptocurrencies will be listed on the Nasdaq, which would lend blockchain and its potential applications as a substitute for traditional currencies even more credibility.
Some claim that a confirmed exchange traded fund is all that cryptocurrency needs (ETF). 5 There is little doubt that an ETF would make it simpler for people to invest in Bitcoin, but there still needs to be a demand for cryptocurrency investments, which may not be produced automatically by a fund.Future of Cryptocurrency

WHEN WILL DIGITAL CURRENCIES REPLACE TRADITIONAL MONEY? EXPLORING THE FUTURE OF GLOBAL FINANCE.
The advent of the digital age has revolutionized various aspects of our lives, from the way we communicate and consume media, to how we shop and even conduct our financial transactions. One prominent product of this digital revolution is the emergence of digital currencies, a new form of money that exists solely in the digital space. With the creation of Bitcoin in 2009, the concept of decentralized, digital money not controlled by a central authority entered mainstream awareness, and since then, the interest in and use of digital currencies has grown exponentially. This brings us to the central question this article aims to answer: when will digital currencies replace traditional money?
CRYPTOCURRENCY :HOW IT'S WORK,ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES.pdfBharata chandra Sahu
INTRODUCTION OF CRYPTOCURRENCY
Currency, crypto- currency, crypto, or coin is a digital forex designed to work as a medium of trade via a pc community that isn't always reliant on any central authority, comparable as a authorities or bank, to uphold or hold it
Cryptocurrency, every now and then known as crypto- foreign money or crypto, is any shape of forex that exists digitally or almost and makes use of cryptography to invulnerable deals. Cryptocurrencies do no longer have a central issuing or regulating authority, alternatively the use of a decentralized machine to file offers and difficulty new units.
What Is Cryptocurrency?
A cryptocurrency is a digital or digital foreign money that is secured via cryptography, which makes it almost insolvable to pretend or double- spend. severa cryptocurrencies are decentralized networks grounded on blockchain science — a dispensed tally completed via a far-off community of computers. A defining factor of cryptocurrencies is that they're normally no longer issued by using any central authority, rendering them theoretically susceptible to authorities quandary or manipulation.
Cryptocurrency is a digital fee machine that does now not calculate on banks to corroborate deals. It’s a peer- to- peer machine that can allow each person somewhere to shoot and admit payments. alternatively of being bodily plutocrat carried round and modified in the actual world, cryptocurrency repayments stay in simple terms as digital entries to an on-line database describing particular deals. When you switch cryptocurrency finances, the offers are recorded in a public tally. Cryptocurrency is saved in digital holdalls .
The Cryptocurrency and Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill 2021 is probably to be added in the downtime session of the Parliament. It's a invoice that would adjust Cryptocurrency in India. On December 7 2021, Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman asserted that the the proposed Central Bank Digital Currency may not increase cryptocurrency in India.
Are Cryptocurrencies Legal?
Fiat currencies figure out their authority as mediums of sale from the authorities or monetary authorities. For illustration, every bone invoice is aided with the aid of the Federal Reserve.
But cryptocurrencies don't seem to be backed via any public or personal realities. thus, it has been subtle to make a case for their prison repute in exclusive fiscal authorities all through the world. It does no longer assist things that cryptocurrencies have generally labored outdoor utmost being fiscal structure. The prison repute of cryptocurrencies has counteraccusations for their use in diurnal offers and trading. In June 2019, the Financial Action Task Force( FATF) endorsed that line transfers of cryptocurrencies need to be problem to the prerequisites of its outing Rule, which requires AML compliance.
As of December 2021, El Salvador used to be the solely united states in the world to enable Bitcoin as criminal soft for monetary deals.
Traditional form of money involves bank fees and is controlled by the government. Though this financial
oversight is necessary to enable secure transactions the complexity has risen manifold. Most of the time this
complexity turns away a great idea from becoming a reality. Moreover, according to Businessweek, half of
the world doesn’t own a bank account and are happy with that. This makes lending money even more
difficult. Consequently, addressing societal problem becomes time consuming and difficult. With the rise of
mobile and internet, a new form of currency known as crypto currency is presenting a new, democratic way
of leveraging the power and reach of internet and mobile to solve poverty and unemployment. This
academic research paper will analyze the power of crypto currency specifically the Bitcoins to solve current

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

Cryptocurrencies - Part I | Introduction of Money & Virtual Money
1. ----
----
History of Money
Money is defined as the “medium of
exchange of values “or more specifi-
cally “An officially-issued legal tender
generally consisting of currency and
coin (Jevons, 2002). The history of
money goes back to the first trading
among humans. Money had different
forms and it evolved through different
time eras as it changed its shapes de-
pending upon the needs and demands
of the society along with constraints
of its own usages and technological
developments. Medium of exchange
was not limited to one single form, it
was dependent upon the society which
commodity was valuable enough e.g.
Even “Salt” was considered as a me-
dium of exchange of value or money.
The different forms of money included
metal, gold, silver, copper, bronze etc.
Following is the brief description of
different forms of money throughout
the ages:
a) Barter Trade
According to the historians, Bar-
ter Trade was the oldest method of
“medium of exchange” where goods
exchanged for other goods in need.
In China, Cowry Shells were used as
medium of exchange which proved
to be quite useful and were in use
throughout history up to the middle of
last century. Due to certain constraints
like “Double Coincidence of Wants” &
“want of measure of value and sub-
division” (Jevons, 2002) and delicate
nature of goods etc. the Barter Trade
ran its course of usefulness.
b) Gold Standard
With the advent of paper cur-
rency, the commodity currency was
replaced by ‘Representative Money’.
Representative Money was backed
by Government or bank’s promise to
exchange it for certain value of silver
or gold (Bellis, Mary, 2014). The prime
example of the Representative Money
was Bretton Woods Gold Standard in
which countries agreed to fix the prices
of their respective currencies in terms
of a specified amount of Gold (Bordo,
2008). However, during First World
War, the Gold Standard was abolished;
although, it was reinstated in 1925 but
few countries followed it.
c) Fiat & Paper Money
China is known to be the pioneer
in the invention of Paper Money in
Tang Dynasty (618 A.D.) which used
the paper currency for more than
500 years. In Europe, the first paper
currency was introduced in the 17th
Century (Time, 2009).
In 1971, USA obliterated Gold
Standard system completely which led
to the new form of currency known
as ‘Fiat Money’ (Bordo, 2008). Fiat
Money is a legal tender which has no
intrinsic value of its own other than
a government’s backing. The value
of the money is dependent upon the
relationship of Supply and Demand
(Investopedia, 2014). Fiat money is still
in use in the world. Fiat Money can
be exchanged among countries for the
purposes of trade.
d) Plas c Money
The technological advancement
in the fields of communication and
information technology provided a
launching pad for the exploration of
new opportunities at a global scale
based on consumers’ demands. In
early 1960s, people demanded some
innovative solutions to their payment
related problems. To address such
issues, Universal Credit Cards came
into the market. The first Universal
Credit Card was issued by Diner’s
Club in 1950 which charged annual
fee to the card holders along with
periodical billing system. American
Express launched its Universal Credit
Card in 1958 followed by Bank of
America’s first national bank planned
BankAmericard in 1959. BankAmeri-
card became Visa in 1976 (HowStuff-
Works.com, 2006).
d) Virtual Currency
Virtual Currency came into surface
in Multiplayer games or MMORPG
(Massively Multiplayer Online Role
Playing Games) where the gamers
use different virtual products to boost
their performance or clear certain
level or get special items within the
game. Virtual Currency is defined as
“non-physical store of value that can
be exchanged for goods and services at

Authority of Singapore, 2014). Virtual
Currency can be transferred electroni-
cally among users.
According to European Union Cen-
tral Bank’s Electronic Money Directive
2009/110/EC.41, Virtual Currency or
electronic money has a basic criteria of
three characteristics:
electronic storage,
issuance upon receipt of funds, and
Acceptance as a means of payment
by a legal or natural person other
than the issuer (Directive 2009/110/
EC, 2009).
Unlike Fiat Currency which is
termed to be ‘Legal Tender’ among
governments because of its guarantee
or backing, Virtual Currency is not
backed by any Government or state. In
most of the countries like Singapore,
Argentina, Canada etc., Virtual Cur-
rency is not recognized as Legal Tender.
There are two types of Virtual Curren-
cy; Centralized and Decentralized.
Centralized Virtual Currency is a
type in which the Virtual Currency is
issued by an organization and autho-
rized to record Virtual Currency trans-
actions. Herein, Virtual currency can
be purchased at a fixed rate which is
set by the issuing organization (Mon-
etary Authority of Singapore, 2014).
The Farmville Bucks or SteamCoins
are the examples of Centralized Virtual
Currency where the rate is specified
along with recording of the transac-
tions. Other examples include Liberty
Reserve, WebMoney etc.
On the contrary, Decentralized
Virtual Currency is not owned by
any organization and it’s usually being
maintained by the users of the respec-
tive Virtual Currency community. The
rate of Decentralized Virtual Currency
is also determined by the users and
there is no authentic or complete re-
cord of transactions. Bitcoin, Litecoin,
and 42 etc are the prime examples of
Decentralized Virtual Currency.
Virtual Products
Online games offered virtual prod-
ucts either on completing objectives
or after attaining certain levels or pur-
chase with Fiat Money. The products
once acquired can be traded among
players. One of the biggest examples
is Zynga Games’ Farmville; an online
social network based game which
hit revenue stream of $291.5 million
in second quarter of 2012 having 72
million Daily Active Users around the
globe (Wilhelm, 2012). Farmville had
a wide range of virtual products which
could be purchased through Credit/
Debit Card (real money) and even
had its own currency as well which is
known as ‘Farmville Bucks’. ‘Farmville
Bucks’ could be purchased in fixed
rates and also had holiday discount
offers. Other MMORPG like DOTA/
DOTA2 has their own virtual stores
which use ‘Steam Coins’ which can be
purchased or collected for spending
or redeeming (SteamCoins, 2014). Ac-
cording to CNET (Reisinger, 2010), the
revenue generated by virtual goods was
staggering $7.3 billion.
Virtual Economies
MMORPG not only build environ-
ments for virtual products’ commerce
but also developed virtual economies
which involve both real as well as
virtual money. Another eye opening
example is of EVE Online; an MMOR-
PG based on Galaxy simulation with
a population of over 500, 000 players
linked with virtual economy attached
with real world currency. Players
engaged in a virtual battle labelled as
“Most Expensive Battle in Gaming
History” (Associated Press, 2014).
The battle lasted for 21 hours with
4000 players involved and it cost over
$500,000 due to loss in almost 100
Titans (Megaships that take months
to build and cost $3000-$4000) along
with other spaceships (Savage, 2014).
Due to globalization, and technologi-
cal advancement in communication and
payment system, participation in these
games have increased exponentially.
World is now experiencing a signifi-
cant change in terms of e-commerce as
well. The usage of Virtual Currency is
not only limited to games and multi-
player shoot-outs anymore, its being
used as an acceptable medium of ex-
change among different types of users
around the world.
Further details on Virtual Currency/
Crypto Currencies will be contributed
in the up-coming series of publication.
