Are We Misunderstanding the Cryptocurrency Craze?

There’s no doubt that people are in a frenzy over cryptocurrencies. Not just bitcoin, but ether and litecoin and a number of others have seen huge gains this year.The interest in cryptocurrencies as a whole, and the hundreds of thousands of people signing up to platforms like Coinbase, has led to investors pouring money into other digital coins.But I feel there is a huge misunderstanding among both people trading cryptocurrencies, as well as critics. People will look at many cryptocurrencies and say, “this is madness.” They’re not wrong. There is bubble right now in a lot of these digital currencies with people trying to make a quick buck.
