Payment cryptos are by far the biggest category in terms of total market cap. In this group, you find cryptocurrencies that mainly aim to be used as a store of value, transaction, and payments, just like fiat currencies such as the U.S. dollar. Examples of cryptocurrencies that fall into this category include the following:

 Bitcoin (BTC)

 Litecoin (LTC)

 Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

 OMG Network (OMG)

 Dash (DASH)

 Ripple (XRP)

 Tether (USDT)

With Bitcoin as the pioneer, it is no wonder that this category started out being so popular. Blockchain technology can be applied to so much more than just payment systems. Check out Book 2, Chapter 1 for more current blockchain uses and potential future applications.
