True. Every fiat currency is based on a shared belief that it has value. Break that confidence and you destroy the currency.

Fiat currency is a government issued currency where as cryptocurrency is an internet scheme much like multilevel marketing. A government currency is not backed by anything other than the strength of the issuing nation, but that is far better than the nothing of the internet.
