Useful information about cryptos

  • Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies. The information on the transactions is stored in a kind of digital cash book, known as a blockchain. This cash book is checked and stored via a network of computers. This makes cryptocurrencies transparent and forgery-proof and dispenses with the need for a central bank or authority.

    You can buy or sell cryptos online or send them to other people as payment.

  • In Switzerland, cryptocurrencies can be purchased via regulated crypto exchanges, banks or brokers. It is important to choose a reputable and regulated provider.

    With PostFinance, you can open your crypto portfolio directly in e-finance or in the PostFinance App and purchase your cryptocurrencies where you already manage your money.

  • The price, value and yield of cryptocurrencies can fluctuate and may lead to the loss of all capital invested. That’s why you should familiarize yourself with the opportunities and risks of cryptocurrencies before investing.

  • Cryptocurrencies can sharply increase or decrease in value within a short period of time. Other risks include hacking attacks on trading platforms, regulatory changes and poor decisions due to a lack of market knowledge. That’s why investors should only invest money that they can afford to lose.
