Easy and Fast Payment: Make payment without using your credit card or sign any document. You just need to know information such as the wallet address of person or organization to whom you want to transfer money and payment transfer processing is very fast and can take place in a matter of seconds.
Secure: The use of military grade cryptography ensures that transactions remain secure. No person except the owner of a wallet can transfer or receive payments from a wallet.

Low or No Fees: Banks and Payment Processing companies charge fees to conduct payment and fund transfer but with crypto currencies, these fees can be eliminated and are very low.
No Fraud: An option where another party can chargeback for example if the payment is made with a Credit Card does not exist. Once the payment is sent, it can never be reversed.

What is an AltCoin?
An AltCoin is basically an Alternative Coin, which are all the other cryptocurrencies than the Bitcoin. This term covers over the more than 70 other cryptocurrencies that currently exist in circulation, all fighting to become the next Bitcoin. Just like with the Bitcoin, AltCoins are not regulated by any bank, but instead by the market.
Is it Legal?
Owning and gambling with cryptocurrencies is completely legal in most countries, however there are a few countries around the world who has prohibited their citizens to own different coins such as India or China. There are not any major legal issues from owning the cryptocurrencies, as the rest of the world has accepted them and started to work

Is it safe?
Just like most other things or services online, cryptocurrencies are not 100% safe. However, if you protect yourself by having a complex password, you do not use any public internet access and have a good antivirus program as well as take other safety precautions, then you will not have to worry about it when you trade cryptocurrencies online. The said sites take all the necessary security measures as well, to ensure that hackers etc. will not be able to infiltrate their system and compromise data or steal funds

Are Cryptocurrency sites regulated?
Most cryptocurrency sites are not regulated by a regulatory authority. However, this is simply due to the fact that the regulatory authorities do not support sites that only accept the virtual currencies, making it impossible for them to actually become regulated. There are some sites that accept regular funds as well as cryptocurrencies, who all have licenses to operate in the respective markets.

What makes the EXANTE platform different?
Whereas most exchanges are unregulated and do not hold your funds securely, EXANTE is
different. EXANTE offers you the opportunity to invest in one of their 7 funds which include
exposure to Bitcoin, Monero, Zcash, Ripple, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, DASH and Litecoin. The coins
that underline the fund are cold stored whereby they have their code split into 3 separate parts and
then stored in different locations. More importantly EXANTE are EEA authorised (FRN 620980) and
are independently audited by KPMG (one of the Big F4 largest international accounting and
professional services firms). This enables the investor to buy and trade multiple crypto currencies
with the same confidence as with traditional Forex and Stocks, as well as not having to deal with
wallets and storage. Client’s funds are simply deposited to the exchange via wire transfer and can
then be used to trade/invest in Exante’s funds.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS OF THE STUDY
• The current number of unique ac ve users of crypocurrency wallets is es mated to be between 2.9 million and 5.8 million.
• The lines between the di erent cryptocurrency industry sectors are increasingly blurred: 31% of cryptocurrency companies surveyed are opera ng across two cryptocurrency industry sectors or more, giving rise to an increasing number of universal cryptocurrency companies.
• At least 1,876 people are working full- me in the cryptocurrency industry, and the actual total  gure is likely well above two thousend when large mining organisa ons and other organiza ons that did not provide headcount  gures are added.
• Average security headcount and costs for payment companies and exchanges as a percentage of total headcount/opera ng expenses are similar, but signi cantly higher for wallets.

[merve10495]

EXCHANGES
• The exchanges sector has the highest number of opera ng en  es and employs more people than any other industry sector covered in this study; a signi cant geographical dispersion of exchanges is observed.
• 52% of small exchanges hold a formal government license compared to only 35% of large exchanges.
• On average, security headcount corresponds to 13% of total employees and 17% of budget is spent on security.

[merve10495]

WALLETS
• Between 5.8 million and 11.5 million wallets are es mated to be currently ‘ac ve’.
• The lines between wallets and exchanges are increasingly blurred: 52% of wallets surveyed provide an integrated currency exchange feature, of which 80% o er a na onal-to-cryptocurrency exchange service. In contrast with exchanges, the majority of wallets do not control access to user keys.
PAYMENTS
• While 79% of payment companies have exis ng rela onships with banking ins tu ons and payment networks, the di culty of obtaining and maintaining these rela onships is cited as this sector's biggest challenge.
• On average, na onal-to-cryptocurrency payments cons tute two-thirds of total payment company transac on volume, whereas na onal-to-na onal currency transfers and cryptocurrency-to-cryptocurrency payments account for 27% and 6%, respec vely.

The Cambridge Centre for Alterna ve Finance carried out four online surveys from September 2016 to January 2017 via secure web-based ques onnaires. Each survey was directed at organiza ons and individuals opera ng in a speci c sector of the cryptocurrency industry as de ned by our taxonomy (speci cally exchanges, wallets, payment service providers, and miners).
All surveys were wri en and distributed in English, and the exchanges survey as well as the mining survey were translated and distributed in Chinese with the generous help of 8btc.com.



I did not know that there are some serious studies on it...

[merve10495]

The research team collected data from cryptocurrency companies and organisa ons across 38 countries and  ve world regions. Over one hundred cryptocurrency companies and organisa ons as well as 30 individual miners par cipated in one or more of the four surveys. During the survey process, the research team communicated directly with individual organisa ons, explaining the study’s objec ves. For cases in which currently ac ve major companies did not contribute to our study, the dataset was supplemented with addi onal research and web scraping using commonly applied methodologies.
144 cryptocurrency organisa ons and individual miners are included in the research study sample

[merve10495]

The collected data was encrypted and safely stored, accessible only to the authors of this study. All individual company-speci c data was anonymised and analysed in aggregate by industry sector, type of ac vity, organisa on size, region and country. We es mate that our benchmarking study captured more than 75% of the four cryptocurrency industry sectors covered in this report.
