So I've been buying ETH, BITCOIN, NEO and a bunch of other coins for an investment in case the coins go up in price. My question is this. What exactly am I buying? In many of these coins I'm not actually buying a currency, and I'm also not investing in a company where I get shares. In fact, if I move my ETH around, I burn gas which burns my ETH. If I continuously do this I could end with the 0 ETH. So is there any true value in these coins other than making money when you buy low and sell high?
Why are you confused this much?Crypto currency means real currency but they have no physical appearance.The gas or transaction fee is the fee which is required to pay for the miners which are working for us to confirm our transaction.But the fee is very less and it will decrease more in the future by the development of these coins.So you are buying a real currency with advanced technology.
