> Crypto currency is a commodity

Could you explain this to me?

Are there any other examples of non-physical commodities?

Is music an example of a non-physical commodity?

Crypto is more a commodity than currencies, because unlike currency, crypto is subject to the same speculative supply and demand forces as conventional commodities.

Examples of non-physical commodities: music and apps.

Example of something that doesn’t exist at all: Carbon Offsets which are credits for negative production of GHG. Credits can be purchased on the market by companies to offset their own emissions for regulatory or other reasons.
