A mutual fund is an investment vehicle that consists of a portfolio of stocks, bonds, or other securities. Their value is derived from their underlying assets. Meanwhile, Cryptocurrencies derive their value from speculation. Mutual funds are governed and regulated by laws while Cryptocurrencies are not. Cryptocurrency, sometimes called crypto-currency or crypto, is any form of currency that exists digitally or virtually and uses cryptography to secure transactions. Cryptocurrencies don't have a central issuing or regulating authority, instead using a decentralized system to record transactions and issue new units.
