The word crypto has been much talked about for years and I came to think that it was only referring to the one and only popular coin Bitcoin. In that, whenever "crypto" is mentioned I associate it with Bitcoin and I am sure I was not the only person in this category. Those were my level of understanding until I began to make a personal research on the subject.
That research of course led me to discover that there are other forms of cryptocurrencies that exist alongside Bitcoin. The likes of Ethereum, Dogecoin, Litecoin, Egold, **Hive and so on.
