Frequently Asked Questions

Pixtub is a European based cryptocurrency marketplace. It allows people from all around the Europe to purchase and sell cryptocurrency in a safe manner using credit cards or bank transfer.

Cryptocurrencies are digital assets. Most digital assets are decentralized, which means they are not controlled by a single governing body, and this is what makes them more unique than traditional fiat.

Since crypto is decentralized, it is important that some rules exist to assure that transactions involving digital assets are legitimate. The blockchain stores all transaction data, chronologically tracking the public digital asset transactions that take place all over the world.

While this may sound simple, this level of data storage takes an incredible amount of work. That is why computers called miners are constantly processing advanced computations to confirm transactions. When someone chooses to use their personal hardware to mine, they are issued a small amount of crypto called a block reward.

Cryptocurrency trading means buying, selling or holding cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (XBT), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC) amongst others, with the aim of generating a profit from short, medium or long term fluctuations in their prices.

Trading on the PIXTUB platform can be performed by exchanging EUR for BTC.

Definitions:

1. Decentralized - Something that has had power moved away from a specific authoritative body is decentralized.
2. Fiat - Fiat currencies are centralized currencies, such as the U.S. Dollar or the Euro.
3. Blockchain - The ledger that tracks digital asset transactions into sequential order.
4. Miners - Computers that confirm transactions on the blockchain using a series of advanced computations.
5. Confirm - Confirmations are necessary for a successful transaction. The number of confirmations is based on the number of times that the network has accepted the transaction. The more confirmations, the more likely the transaction is to be legitimate. The fewer the confirmations, the more likely it is that coins could potentially be double-spent.
6. Block reward - New digital assets rewarded to a miner for participating in the mining process.
7. Address - An address is an alphanumeric string of letters and numbers that is unique to a wallet. It is what is used to route digital assets across the network to a particular destination. Different coins have unique address formats.
