[WSJ] 영어신문 기사로 영어단어 공부하기

가상화폐 붐이 불고 있는 현재

Bitcoin 부터시작해서 다양한 Altcoin들에 대한 사람들의 관심이 끈이지 않고 있는대요

1주당 $1 가 안되는 저렴한 가격과 Bitcoin, Dogecoin과 같이 엄청나게 급등하는 가격을 보고

많은 사람들은 희망을 품고 다음으로 성장할 코인을 주시하고 있습니다

하지만 이러한 코인시장에도 위험은 있습니다

한 주당 $1 안된다는 이유는 그만큼 가치가 낮을 수 있다는 것과 

규제와 감시가 주식시장과 같이 잘되고 있지 않기에 

언제라도 문제가 생기고 또한 사라질 수 있는 위험이 있답니다
