Digital representation

Definition
Digital representation is

"a representation of something in the form of digital data &mdash; i.e., computerised data that is represented using discrete (discontinuous) values to embody information, as contrasted with continuous, or analog signals that behave in a continuous manner or represent information using a continuous function."

Virtual currency
"A physical object, such as a flash drive or a bitcoin, may contain a digital representation of virtual currency, but ultimately, the currency only functions as such if it is linked digitally, via the Internet, to the [[virtual currency system''."
