Wow, @aarellanes!
I had NO idea that cryptocurrency was so complicated! My husband told me just recently (shortly before I applied to be on Steemit) that you can make money with cryptocurrencies. My retort was, "Yeah, if you know what you're doing!"
Guess I will have to make sure I know what I am doing, lol!
Thanks for the explanation - I will be bookmarking this post. Now I understand what I read in an email about nefarious people mining cryptocurrencies.
Great post. Thanks again!
