The world of crypto and/or virtual currency can be overwhelming. It’s still fairly new but it’s becoming more and more prevalent with your everyday customers, even those that aren’t particularly financially savvy. Not only are there new terms and concepts to understand, it’s also an area that is constantly evolving and changing.
