What is Cryptocurrency?
Cryptocurrency is decentralised digital cash that is secured by encryption. It operates across a vast network of computers around the world and can be transferred to anyone. There are a number of different cryptocurrencies currently on the market. The original and most well-known one is Bitcoin which was launched in 2008. The other cryptocurrencies are called “altcoins” or alternative coins
Where are Cryptocurrencies Traded?

How do Lot Sizes Work with Cryptocurrency?
Cryptocurrency CFDs do not operate in “Lots” as they do with Forex. When you trade a cryptocurrency CFD you are buying a contract that has a set amount of tokens in it. These will vary according to the coin so we encourage you to take a look at our cryptocurrency asset schedule.
Can I Withdraw my Coins?
When you are trading on MyFXMarkets, you are trading a CFD product that is a derivative of the cryptocurrency. You have not bought the coins but you have bought the rights to participate in price movements. Hence, you cannot withdraw any coins (unless you have funded in cryptocurrency).
Are Cryptocurrencies Risky?
Cryptocurrencies are inherently more risky than traditional Forex. This is because they are a relatively new asset class that reacts more violently to price movements. Hence, when trading cryptocurrencies, your returns / losses are magnified (leverage held equal).
Are Cryptocurrencies Regulated?
Cryptocurrencies are not fully regulated by any government. There are many exchanges that are unregulated by any government agency and will sell cryptocurrencies. MyFXMarkets, on the other hand, is a fully regulated CFD broker. When you trade CFDs with us, your investment can be considered safer than if you were to rely on an unregulated offshore exchange.
