I'm not so broad in knowledge as regards the cryptocurrency, but I do know that it's been a great means of making money. I mean, even the richest men on earth transact with crypto.

As much as we all love seeing money, feeling it and spending raw cash, I've got to admit that the crypto currency has a tendency of a higher value than the physical currency.

The cryptocurrency is a digital currency which is verified as a means of exchange in the financial institution.

Even with the fluctuations that come with cryptocurrency, it's still one of the best if not the best way of preserving finance.

The reasons I prefer crypto to physical cash will be explained below.

First, there's the high level of security. I work in a financial institution, and I can boldly say that crypto is more secure than having cash or keeping your money in the bank. Except you leak out your private questions to someone,there is no way it can be tampered with. Even if you forget your private keys to your wallet, it's as good as saying bye to your funds. So it makes you really conscious of your funds.

To buttress the security advantage, there are channels your transactions have to pass through to really verify that the actual owner of the wallet is the one carrying out the transaction.

Furthermore, there is the privacy advantage. Only you know what is in your wallet, no one else does. Only you have strict access to your wallet. Only you can view and see what you have. Trust me, there's the feeling of having utmost privacy.

The advantage of accessibility is a major one. You do not need to visit any institution, just have a phone, a strong Internet and know your keys and you can easily access your wallet. It is faster compared to the procedures of opening a bank account, or visiting the bank.

Transparency which most financial institutions lack is present in cryptocurrency. Your transaction status becomes apparent immediately. If failed it's stated, if successful , also stated.

The fact that you can easily convert your cash to crypto and vice versa is one major advantage. So yes, cryptocurrency is way better and more reliable than physical money.

Thank you for reading.

Crypto fraudsters are on a whole different level o😂. I don't know so much about crypto either but it would be wiser to have thorough knowledge before dabbling in it. There's so much more to it.

Hmmm, I believe you know Wallets can be hacked just like robbers come to your house to steal with guns and also receiver address can be mistyped and that's the end of your funds...

So I still see potential threats and insecurities, but thanks for your content

The hacking of those wallets are not as common as with having a bank account. It's like what banks do is to create a preventive measure for what had already occurred. So they are always a step behind. But for the crypto, the security is tighter, even if it can be hacked, its not to be compared with other means

Oh oh okay.. Now I get

And you too

I love the point you made of privacy, you and only you can know your worth. Not like the conventional bank(er)s who treat you based on the amount of money they see you have breathing in your account.

One thing you should know is that your crypto transactions are saved on the Blockchain and can be made available to the government in the case of investigation unless it's privacy coins like monero or zcash. Anyway, nice write up

Thank you. This will come about only when fraudulent practices are being suspected.
