I have always been confused about crypto currencies and how they work... how they are stabilised and regulated but with the present plight and constant devaluation of my country's currency, it's safe to say I need to learn, practice and own a safer landing, the banking systems are not helping with constant maintenance levies and network issues. I'm aware that there is no perfect place but anywhere with a more better solution is more preferable. Cheers to the beginning of a new journey.
No need to be confused about that, mate, because now you can find more explanations from people on this forum as well as from people around you who may have already known about all these things in the past. Apart from that, you can also read it on several websites which have been written and explained in detail about cryptocurrencies and how they work so that it makes it easier for you to read them quite carefully. You just need more reading to increase your knowledge about cryptocurrencies and how they work and you can get that here or on the two websites that I will recommend below.
