Factors like financial opportunities, technological advantages, and psychological factors contribute to cryptocurrencies' popularity. However, there are also legal and economic issues regarding their use like money laundering and tax evasion.

Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies that use cryptography for security. Some examples discussed are Bitcoin, the first cryptocurrency created in 2009, Ethereum launched in 2015 which uses ether, and Litecoin created in 2011, often called the 'silver' to Bitcoin's 'gold'. They allow for peer-to-peer transactions without an intermediary.
