bitcoin home has an interpretation.
Bitcoin is just a game. If it is promoted as a tool to get rich, it can be regarded as a fraud. Just like the currency in other online games, the only difference is that bitcoin has been standardized since the game was first formulated. It can't be issued indiscriminately, so it can keep its value better than other virtual game props. It is equivalent to the online collection. Bitcoin is a prop in the game, and its value is reflected in the recognition of bitcoin by players: more people play, the value of props in the game is higher; The risk is that he is not the only game, and his algorithm is not the only one. Maybe someone will be able to make other special coins soon. All you need to do is promote the game and sell your props. As for money, bitcoin does not have the basic attributes of money, such as unfair initial distribution and insecure circulation. Money needs to be maintained by the state machine
the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's ideas, the open source software and the P2P network on it were designed and released. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system. Unlike most currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of money circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction
1. Bitcoin (bitcoin) is a kind of network virtual currency, which can buy real-life goods. It is characterized by decentralization, anonymity, and can only be used in the digital world. It does not belong to any country or financial institution, and is not subject to geographical restrictions. It can be exchanged anywhere in the world. Therefore, it is used as a money laundering tool by some criminals
2. On January 7, 2014, Taobao announced that it would ban the sale of Internet virtual currencies such as bitcoin and lightcoin from January 14. On February 26, 2014, Democratic Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia issued an open letter to a number of regulatory authorities of the federal government of the United States, hoping that relevant institutions would pay attention to the status quo of bitcoin encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and demanded that actions be taken as soon as possible to completely ban the electronic currency
3. On May 12, 2017, a global outbreak of bitcoin virus madly attacked public and commercial systems! Nearly 74 countries in the world have been seriously attacked
4. From August 1, 2017, global bitcoin trading platform will suspend recharge and withdrawal services. Bitcoin China digital asset trading platform will stop new user registration on September 14, and all trading businesses will be stopped on September 30

Yes in the early morning of December 20, the price of bitcoin broke through $24000 , and reached a record high of $24156. Bitcoin is up 24.65% this week and 233% this year
According to Kang Lu, senior analyst of fire currency, the unilateral rise of the market is not a healthy performance of the market, but a certain correction of the market is a healthy performance of the market. Kanglu believes that the market will not continue to rise, and breaking the new high does not mean that the market will continue to rise all the way, but it will have a strong impact on the psychological level of investors, and the market may form a certain buying consensus According to the securities times, on Friday, the U.S. Treasury proposed new regulations on digital currency regulation, requiring some cryptocurrency dealers to provide information about their identities in order to curb the use of this new technology by criminals for anonymous asset transfer. The proposal has 15 days for public comment. Affected by the news, bitcoin once fell by about $200 in the short term, breaking through $22880, but soon recoveredit is learned that the new regulation mainly aims at allowing the holder of the unique digital key to store the cryptocurrency and trade directly with others without going through the accounts of financial institutions. This kind of account usually exists in the form of U disk, computer or mobile phone software
such accounts are usually not associated with an indivial's name and address, and regulators believe that compared with the banking system, cryptocurrency is more attractive in the eyes of criminals and money launderers
under the new rules, banks and cryptocurrency trading platforms will have to keep records of customers' cryptocurrency transactions and counterparties in any transaction over US $3000 to verify their identities. According to the U.S. banking regulation called "travel rule", financial institutions must share specific information when transferring money to each other
in addition, banks and digital currency trading platforms must report to FinCEN every 15 days any cryptocurrency transactions involving unmanaged wallets and exceeding US $10000
however, it has not been fully and effectively regulated at present (as of March 6, 2019)
if we understand bitcoin as a kind of "currency", then it is equivalent to US dollars leaving the United States. Usually, after the US dollar leaves the United States, banks in other countries will help manage it. However, it is impossible to count the scattered us dollars that are neither in the United States nor in the hands of banks and other financial institutions. For example, in some areas of Africa where there are no banks, the US dollar is used
these scattered us dollars are equivalent to bitcoin
how to regulate these scattered us dollars
generally, in addition to controlling the issuance of US dollars, US dollar regulation also controls the circulation and usage ports. The Federal Reserve controls the number of new currencies issued each year according to the flow and damage of dollars abroad. At the same time, we should supervise the inflow and outflow of US dollars, so as to keep us dollars in an environment that can be roughly traced, so as to facilitate the issuers to count the total amount, so as to avoid excessive inflation or deflation
in fact, these scattered us dollars exist in some deregulated environments. Although they are out of control, they will not affect the overall economic situation
If anyone wants to influence the international economy through these scattered us dollars, then it must enter the existing regulatory system. In this way, these scattered dollars are regulated
for bitcoin, we can also learn from these forms of regulation
first of all, from the point of view of the issuing end, although the total number of bitcoin is now 21 million, it is also "set before" and cannot be changed
recently, it has been mentioned that the 21 million bitcoin limit should be abolished, which means that the issue of bitcoin is not stable. Therefore, it is necessary to control the issuance of bitcoin from the development end
you need to get inside the development side and become a core developer
Second, monitoring from the circulation link. In fact, this is the most difficult monitoring at present, because the blockchain is anonymous, the user is anonymous, and the receiver is anonymous
even though we can trace the circulation path of bitcoin by technical means (for example, we can know that a transaction is sent from a small house in the United States to a commercial building in Germany), it is only a drop in the bucket for tens of millions of users in the whole environment. How to trace and manage the overall transaction data is a huge problem
you can't know from the transaction data whether the user is engaged in illegal transactions
what should we do? Regulators have come up with a way to bind personal identity information to the user's real name, your exchange account number and bitcoin wallet address. But this is also a temporary solution, because it can only monitor the use of bitcoin in specific situations. An indivial can use multiple bitcoin wallet addresses. You don't know when he will apply for a new one
in terms of circulation, there is also a monitoring system to control the exchange channel between bitcoin and local legal currency. Banks in some regions do not provide financial services for users who exchange bitcoin for legal currency, and some countries and regions prohibit financial institutions from providing bitcoin and local legal currency exchange services
if users secretly exchange huge amounts of bitcoin, some clues can be found through the bank transfer records, so as to crack down on illegal acts in time. As for those who make little trouble, let him go
thirdly, restrict the use. This is relatively easy to achieve. For example, relevant laws have been issued to prohibit the use of bitcoin transactions. Although it's impossible to ban it completely, it's better than letting it run wild All over the world, it seems that what is forbidden is not completely forbidden
for example, before using bitcoin in public, you must use your real name, and you have to pay taxes to hold or use bitcoin
of course, it's OK for users not to do so, so it's better to use its assets in the dark
having said so much, now you know that bitcoin can be regulated, but it's not so well managed. Many measures have been taken, and it seems that they are not effectively regulated. Under what circumstances can bitcoin be effectively regulated? Users consciously report their holdings of bitcoin to the regulatory authorities. The regulatory authorities add some development functions to the bitcoin to achieve supervision, or they don't need to use it, so it doesn't matter at all
in fact, it can't be controlled so strictly, as long as it can't be controlled in the range of big waves. After all, there is light and dark, and there may be no gray space at all
new technology will surely have an advantage when it comes to living now.

The vice president of the people's Bank of China said in an interview that through this market fluctuation, we will study the regulatory rules of bitcoin. As we all know, the price of bitcoin has been rising rapidly, attracting the attention of countless investors, but it has been followed by a sharp decline of bitcoin. Because there is no way to regulate such a virtual currency, its capital flow has become a puzzle. This time, the people's Bank of China said in an interview that it would study such a virtual currency, which obviously sent a signal. So today, let's discuss the difficulties in the regulation of bitcoin{ Third, how do you view this interview
this interview not only expresses that we will carry out strict supervision over the special currency, but also expresses another attitude. That is, bitcoin, as an investment currency, has been included in the scope of compulsory regulation nationwide, even worldwide. At the same time, we also need to understand that although bitcoin has investment properties, it can not replace currency itself
Recently, a & lt; Bitcoin is blocked by banks again, but there are still problems in transaction regulation; The news of, caused the hot discussion of broad netizens, make boiling on the net< so, what should money buyers pay attention to? In my opinion, first, we should prevent being cheated. Some time ago, CCTV reported that a fraud gang used this bitcoin to defraud. Second, in the initial attempt, we must try to play for a week with very small funds. First, we should have a general understanding of the risks and opportunities of this virtual market. Third, must go to sub warehouse operation, because there is no supervision, so there will be a lot of unexpected situations what is the specific situation? Let me share my views with you
1. Prevention of being cheatedthe first is to prevent being cheated. Some time ago, CCTV reported that a person was cheated by investing in virtual currency. This person was told by the fraud gang that he could make a steady profit without losing money, so he invested his money in the fake trading platform made by the swindlers and couldn't get it back{ RRRRR}
