What is the First Cryptocurrency(First digital money)?

Bitcoin.
That would be too simple answer , this is my first and last crypto. My time is worth more than dealing with sh*tcoins.
If something revolutionary will came up like Bitcoin did, i will get into that but that kind of invention is one time per 30-50 years.

Hope you all won't loose much on this copycats of bitcoin.

I think bitcoin is not the first cryptocurrency, maybe because it is the first cryptocurrency that becomes successful since it is decentralized and no one can shut it down and they do not even know who makes it or started it. Bitcoin is the most used cryptocurrency as of now since it is the center of transaction because you cannot buy some other tokens if you don't have one. In investing also, most of the projects requires bitcoin when you want to contribute to them. Bitcoin has also awesome platform that makes every user comfortable to buy it and use it as a payments. There are lots of projects that are promising and becomes successful but they are being dominated by the price and volume of bitcoin. Thats why bitcoin is considered first, maybe in standing yes.

I also believe that bitcoin is the first crypto and is always sought after.
strange thing if we have to question about the existence of bitcoin and it's clear that bitcoin will always be sought when compared to others.
agree that don't lose your time with anything else, because bitcoin is very profitable.

Not Bitcoin?

Nope. Bitcoin is just the first one that actually became decently successful and actually gained recognition everywhere. Most people just haven't heard of the past attempts for a global currency just because they weren't successful.

Oh, that's a very informative and interesting piece of information.
Truly saying, I assumed that there were some early attempts to create a cryptocurrency, but now I realize they were numerous than I might have thought. Still, interesting... by the way, thanks for the link

It is clear that the first cryptocurrency discovered was Bitcoin, which was discovered by Satoshi Nakamoto in January 2009.
and over time Altcoin comes as a bitcoin replica where there are various types of coins or tokens on Atlcoin and it all depends on the blockchain system, because all transactions are recorded using the blockchain system.

Cryptocurrencies is an ambiguous term some claim that all kinds of digital money can be attributed as Cryptocurrency but as per this way almost every digital means of payment like paypal would also be considered a Cryptocurrency too. While some consider that money over blockchain can be attributed as Cryptocurrencies because if this is the definition then bitcoin will be the first Cryptocurrency.

I'm not sure what the first early models of cryptocurrencies looked like, perhaps E-gold? I know the first modern day cryptocurrency I invested in was with Bitcoin.  At first I had thought Bitcoin was the new E-Gold, so I didn't invest 10 years ago, boy was I wrong.
I've been kicking myself ever since!
