Cryptocurrency Explained

Compared to Stocks and Bonds The investment case for cryptocurrencies is weak. Unlike stocks and bonds, currencies generate no cash flows such as interest payments or dividends that can explain their prices. National currencies derive their prices from the underlying economic activity of the countries that issue them.

To date, their prices have depended more on speculation about their eventual adoption and use. ~ Joe Davis, Vanguard economist via ccn.com
