A digital coin is a form of electronic currency that uses cryptography to check the veracity of users that attempt to spend the currencies. Such currencies can be used to ensure the stability of national economies, corporations, and individual users. The cryptocurrency can be converted to any real currency, including dollars, euro, yuan, and rubble. Online transaction using digital coins is one of the fastest ways of sending or receiving money as the transaction is not subject to any government intervention, chargebacks, or central bank regulations.

Further, the report states that one challenge that could hamper digital coin market growth is regulatory issues. Government bodies are very likely to propose rules to regulate digital currency exchanges and wallet providers.
