In the early days when technology wasn't as advanced, the original form of virtual currency was the so-called ""game coins,"" often seen in games like World of Warcraft. These types of virtual currencies were limited to closed virtual environments and could only be used within them.

Later on, virtual currencies evolved into a second category. While they still remained usable only in virtual environments, they could be used to purchase real-world goods or services. Examples include Microsoft Points or Nintendo eShop credits.

The third category emerged as currencies based on various technologies, with the most iconic example being the well-known Bitcoin. These decentralized currencies are often tied to real-world value and their market prices are influenced by real-world events. It's important to note that while Bitcoin and similar currencies are often referred to as ""cryptocurrencies,"" the term ""cryptocurrency"" is just one type of virtual currency, and many people tend to misunderstand this distinction.
