Cryptocurrencies have lately been on fire. Bitcoin is up a staggering 617% this year alone. Other sector leaders like Ethereum and Ripple have put on strong performances too, up more than 2,900% and 1,000% respectively in 2017. The market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies has just recently topped the $200 billion mark. Unsurprisingly, traders are making money from the strong volatility and powerful trends of cryptocurrencies. CFDs allow to leverage profits on the large movements of cryptocurrencies, both on the long and short side, when trading Bitcoin on IQ Option.
