    With the latest buzz about bitcoins - a decentralized, digital currency just a few years old - it is extremely important for the banking industry to understand their use and impact. A bitcoin is a form of virtual currency that allows payment through a peer-to-peer network. Bitcoins are not tangible like cash and cannot be deposited into a bank account. However, they can be exchanged to a local currency and those funds can be deposited into a bank account similar to any other transaction. This poses a high risk for money laundering and banks should be aware of ways to monitor the risk.

    A bitcoin can be purchased with cash, credit cards or bank transfers in person or online through digital transactions. In-person transactions can occur by finding a local bitcoin seller through specified websites. Digital transactions by credit card or bank transfer can occur through use of a virtual wallet or designated websites. A bitcoin wallet application can be downloaded onto a desktop or a mobile device. As previously mentioned, they can also be exchanged for conventional currency. Similar to cash, bitcoins can be used to pay for goods and services where accepted and to transfer funds between users.
