What is a cryptocurrency?
A cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency secured by cryptography, which makes it nearly impossible to counterfeit or double spend. Many cryptocurrencies are decentralized networks based on blockchain technology – a decentralized registry enforced by a distributed computer network. A defining characteristic of cryptocurrencies is that they are generally not issued by a central authority, making them theoretically immune to government interference or manipulation.
Types of cryptocurrencies
The first blockchain-based cryptocurrency was Bitcoin, which is still the most popular and valuable today. Now there are thousands of alternative cryptocurrencies with different functions and specifications. Some of them are clones or spin-offs of Bitcoin, while others are new currencies developed from scratch. At GBE brokers, we also offer you the opportunity to trade cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum, DogeCoin, Ripple and many more on a CFD basis.
Crypto CFDs
You don’t want to own your own coins? – CFDs are an elegant solution for this. A CFD (contract for difference) is a derivative that is linked to the price of a cryptocurrency: if the value of the currency rises, the value of your CFD increases; if, on the other hand, the cryptocurrency is in the basement, your CFD is also down.

For crypto currencies, a commission of 0.4% of the trading volume is charged.
The “c” as symbol ending stands for “Commission” (e.g. “EURUSDc”). This means that when trading with symbols ending with “c”, the spread between the bid and ask price is not increased. A trading fee (commission) is charged for this.
