Beginners guide to Cryptocurrency shortforms!

Dear steemit friends,

I know ! another post about cryptocurrency.. It's also because my life recently has been pretty much about this and I have to put on hold about travel for a while as of now.

Anyway, I want to share with you guys too many things but the time is not enough to write.
Since last night, Etherdelta, one of the platforms to buy etherum tokens was hacked until now there seem to be no further updates. I have a few coins and tokens and I have no idea what to do about that.. Anyways. Will update you about that on another post and explain what is etherdelta. It seem like there is another day , another hack in crypto world!

But for Today, I bring you some of the terms that are used quite often around here..
