I'm confused, people saying that's in a virtual money currency that can't not get converted to IRL dollars. Someone with in depth knowledge or some what explain?
The way it works: The idea of the cryptocurrency is to decentralize transactions, i.e no bank required. This is done by "miners" verifying transactions by solving cryptographic puzzles using their mining equipment. When a transaction is verified, the miner is paid.
It's like a currency; only the transaction system is different.
