The difference between Libra and bitcoin
first, it greatly improves performance, As we all know, the number of transfers per second of bitcoin, that is, TPS, is only about 7, and other bitcoin forked coins using POW consensus mechanism are almost the same. The theoretical value of TPS of LBTC can reach 2800, and the current actual level can reach more than 1000, and the performance has been improved by several orders of magnitude. The slogan "fast as lightning" is by no means empty words. If you are interested, you can download a wallet from the official website of LBTC or Cobo to experience it
Second, it greatly reces the energy consumption and participation threshold. As we all know, the high energy consumption caused by POW mining represented by bitcoin has been criticized by the outside world. At the same time, because mining has already become a heavy asset instry, mining machinery, mining and other fields have been monopolized by a few big players, ordinary small and medium-sized investors and new manufacturers have little room to survive, It has formed a situation in which the strong are always strong. However, POS / dpos currencies only need ordinary PCs or even mobile phones to run wallets and stack, so as to obtain revenue
thirdly, it introces chain governance, which achieves a good balance between democracy and efficiency. At the same time, it encourages users to actively participate in community affairs through voting and staging mechanism. In the world of pow, power is power, simple and crude; In the world of POS, those who hold more money will have more right to speak and gain
in the world of dpos, it is not simply to see who holds more money. At the same time, it needs the extensive support of the community to exercise power on behalf of the community. At the same time, the majority of small and medium-sized users also have the opportunity to launch motions, express their demands, and participate in decision-making
because bitcoin has carried too many interests, we are very cautious about any improvement of bitcoin, and the pace is very slow, which leads to the division of the community and the proction of many forked coins. However, in fact, compared with bitcoin, the improvements made by BCH and BSV are quite limited, so the improvement in all aspects is also very limited
therefore, if you take a closer look at LBTC, you will find that it is actually a very interesting bitcoin fork coin. I think it is a very bold and imaginative experiment based on bitcoin. If lightcoin has been used as a testing ground for new technologies and new ideas for bitcoin in many cases, LBTC can be regarded as a testing ground for bitcoin with greater and more thorough changes
just mentioned, one of the biggest obstacles in the promotion and use of bitcoin is that TPS is too low to carry high-frequency transactions. Compared with bitcoin and some well-known bifurcated currencies such as BCH and BSV, the performance of LBTC is improved by several orders of magnitude, and the actual TPS can reach more than 1000
increasing TPS can rece verification time, but it will inevitably sacrifice security or decentralization. If TPS increases blindly, blockchain will completely sacrifice "decentralization". At the same time, the requirements on the miner's machine configuration will be more stringent. If it can not upload the transaction in time, it will proce more unfinished transactions, and the hidden danger will be greater. Although EOS uses 21 super nodes to achieve high efficiency, it also sacrifices some "decentralization" and security, and introces potential risks such as DDoS
in the past two years, many public chain projects blindly pursue high TPS, and often claim to have achieved tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands or even millions of TPS. In order to improve TPS, some project parties buy millions of equipment to test in a laboratory, which only plays a PR effect or amuses themselves. Such a high TPS is meaningless. Even if it can reach or close to such a number, for the current market demand, it also belongs to excess performance, which is bound to cause unnecessary waste of resources
according to the calculation of relevant research institutions, even if the public chain processes 100 million transactions every day, thousand level TPS is enough. It's worth noting that the TPS of Libra, which is to be launched by Facebook, is also around 1000. You should know that Facebook has as many as 2.7 billion users in the world, which should be determined by them after careful consideration
this means that LBTC's TPS can meet the needs of processing 100 million transactions per day, which is quite pragmatic and can fully meet the needs of global users in the next few years. Moreover, LBTC also has a high degree of scalability. With the further improvement of global Internet infrastructure, the performance of LBTC will continue to improve. It can be said that the current LBTC has found a good balance in the "Impossible Triangle" of efficiency, security and decentralization
in the view of many bitcoin fundamentalists, only the pow path chosen by Nakamoto is the only right way. POW consensus mechanism has experienced nearly 10 years of stable operation and continuous market test, and dpos has been more than 6 years since its birth. So how about doing an experiment to see what wonderful chemical reactions can be proced by combining bitcoin with dpos
if this dpos version of bitcoin can also withstand the continuous test of 10 years, will we still insist that only POW is the only right way for bitcoin? Of course, we don't have a definite answer to this question. Time will tell
although I also claim to be a believer of bitcoin, I think the existence of LBTC is very meaningful. This significance does not mean to replace bitcoin, or like some fans of other forked coins, I think that only the branch I support is the real bitcoin, but to explore more and wider possibilities in technology and form a useful supplement to bitcoin.
Libra is linked to a basket of currency deposits or government bonds, and it is more in line with the public's habitual thinking that it is linked to cryptocurrencies without any asset support, such as bitcoin. Therefore, the listing of Libra currency will inevitably have an impact on the online digital currency. Some of the funds were diverted to Libra
however, the impact on real money is very limited, because the right to issue digital money will inevitably be concentrated in the hands of central banks, and private companies will not be allowed to be involved in this field.
Bitcoin was born on January 3, 2009, which has a history of 10 years. The value of bitcoin has soared from zero to US $19850, the highest point in 2017. And most people have been concerned about cryptocurrency and bitcoin since then. Before that, most people would think that bitcoin was just an "internet currency", similar to q-coin
but after the sharp rise of bitcoin in 2017, more and more people began to pay attention to cryptocurrency, understand cryptocurrency, invest in cryptocurrency, and long for cryptocurrency to bring rich economic returns. However, after several in-depth studies, bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency with value and significance. The reasons are as follows:
the total supply of bitcoin is constant. As time goes on, bitcoin will become more and more rare and become a very good means of value storage, similar to gold. In the past 10 years, this function of bitcoin has become a consensus
bitcoin is the leader in cryptocurrency, which is an absolute consensus in this instry. Looking back over the past few years, among the top ten cryptocurrencies in terms of market value, only bitcoin has always been the first, and the remaining counterfeit currencies are all in the past
When it comes to digital currency, your first reaction may be bitcoin or Libra, which Facebook plans to launch
from the perspective of usage scenarios, the central bank's digital currency does not pay interest, and can be used in small, retail and high-frequency business scenarios, which is no different from paper money. At the same time, the use should comply with all the existing regulations on cash management, anti money laundering and anti-terrorism financing

Libra is still a very fresh word for many people . Many people may not know what Libra is, and how it can compete with WeChat and Alipay. To understand these reasons, we must first have a clear understanding of Libra< Libra, known as "Libra coin" in China, is a kind of cryptocurrency issued by Facebook company , which is currently in the hearing stage in the United States
even if Libra has assets as endorsements, it is still not legal tender , and the risk does not exist! Although Libra can realize the equivalent exchange with legal tender, its essence is still a kind of "token" , which means that their value fluctuates greatly, it is difficult to achieve stability, and it is easy to damage the interests of consumers< Strong> is precisely because of this "token" nature, Libra can not compete with the dollar , and can only compete with some online electronic payment methods, such as WeChat Alipay! p>

I don't think Libra is so easy to circulate. The United States can't decide anything. He thought very well, circulating that, but money is a financial tool, and I'm not a person who understands finance. Let's talk about my superficial opinions. He must have professional people to manipulate the currency. If there is a problem, it will bring huge problems, such as inflation and what money is not worth. Libra is still competing against Alipay. This is basically two things. p>
what they think is very good. After all, there is no myth for Internet entrepreneurship now, and they all want to create a new myth, but I don't think this idea is very good. At least as an ordinary person, I will worry about it and won't use it. We all know that bitcoin has a very scarce factor, because bitcoin only circulates in the market at present, that is to say, no new bitcoin will be added. This scarcity also creates the idea that people want to collect very much. Therefore, the price of bitcoin will continue to increase because of its scarcity, but if a new bitcoin appears one day, Then the price is bound to fall rapidly
