Principles of bitcoin and stock speculation
centralized account book (bank)
the bank is a centralized account book, which is stored in the bank's central database, and it says:
Zhang San's a account balance is 3000 yuan, The balance of Li Si's B account is 2000 yuan...
when Zhang San wants to transfer 1000 yuan to Li Si's B account through a account:
Zhang San goes to the bank and submits the transfer request to the bank
the bank confirms Zhang San's identity through bank card password and checks whether Zhang San's a account has enough balance
after passing the check, The bank adds a transfer record: account number a transfers 1000 yuan to account number B,
and modifies the balance: account number a balance = 3000-1000 = 2000 yuan, account number B balance = 2000 + 1000 = 3000 yuan
decentralized account book
suppose there is such a small village where people do not rely on the bank, but use the account book to record who has how much money, Everyone's account book says:
Zhang San's a account balance is 3000 yuan, Li Si's B account balance is 2000 yuan...
when Zhang San wants to transfer 1000 yuan to Li Si's B account through a account,
Zhang San roars: attention, I transfer 1000 yuan to Li Si's B account with a account
the villagers near Zhang San listen to Zhang San's voice and check whether Zhang San's a account has enough balance
after passing the inspection, the villagers write on their account books: account a transfers 1000 yuan to account B
and modify the balance: account a balance = 3000-1000 = 2000 yuan, account B balance = 2000 + 1000 = 3000 yuan
the villagers near Zhang San tell the distant villagers about the transfer until everyone knows about the transfer, so as to ensure the consistency of everyone's account book
decentralized account book (bitcoin)
bitcoin users run bitcoin client software on the computer, such a computer is called a node
a large number of node computers connect with each other to form a peer-to-peer network like spider web
when Zhang San wants to transfer 1 bitcoin to Li Si's B account through a account,
Zhang San broadcast the transfer transaction requirements to the surrounding nodes: a account transfers 1 bitcoin to B account, and signs with the private key of a account
(the private key of account a can be simply understood as the password of account a, and the bitcoin on account a can be used as long as the private key of account a is known)
the nodes around Zhang San check the authenticity of the transaction signature through the public key of account a, and check whether Zhang San's account a has enough balance
after the check, the node writes to its own account book: account a transfers 1 bitcoin to account B,
and modify the balance: a account balance = 3 bitcoin - 1 bitcoin = 2 bitcoin, B account balance = 2 bitcoin + 1 bitcoin = 3 bitcoin
the node broadcasts the transaction to the surrounding nodes and transmits it to all the nodes until all the nodes receive the transaction
bitcoin's decentralized public ledger is called blockchain. This is the simplest description of the operation of bitcoin. Of course, the actual operation of bitcoin is far more complex than this. We will explain it further in the future.
2? This is the funniest game. The so-called "10 for 10" is meaningless to split one's own stock into two, and change one's own 100 Yuan paper into two pieces of 50 Yuan paper. If bitcoin is set to 1:10, it is not equal to the so-called 1:10.. What's the value
3, the problem of net worth growth? The stock represents the company, which has land and land. If the weather is good, the net value will increase year after year, and the land in the hands of landlords will be more and more, but it seems that it has nothing to do with our small shareholders. For example? Can I exchange Maotai shares for a bottle of Maotai wine? For example, can I exchange bank shares for a banking department? I have 10000 bank shares. I'm a shareholder, but I'm old. Can the bank ask me to look at the gate of the bank? If there is a natural or man-made disaster, such as the explosion of Sinopec, stone milk powder, or a profit transfer, someone else will buy 3000 computers, and the listed company's account will change to 3 in case, what can we do? Can you protest strongly? Or can I withdraw
4. As for the problem of large shareholders, more than 5% of the shares can be listed, but the total assets of my generation, my next generation and my next generation can not be listed. It seems that it is empty talk. I will never have the right to speak. At least I haven't seen that small shareholders' online voting can change the company's resolutions, let alone the company's daily resolutions... I believe that the security guards will drive me out before I get to the door of the listed company
5. Gambling is not allowed in a certain country. It seems that the stock market is a legal gambling market. Of course, everyone knows that the final winner is the casino. But since it's a gamble, now that there are so many gambling instries, it's better to watch a game at the weekend. Who will win the gamble and put on the hundreds of dollars that are idle for your body and mind?
Ordinary computers can choose some coins that are not difficult to mine. At present, the difficulty of mining Monroe coins (XmR) is relatively small. I will explain it from my personal experience

There have been relevant discussions in Jingxuan finance and economics , and I will summarize them to you
if there are big funds coming in, there is nothing wrong with the price rise of bitcoin. At the end of 2013, bitcoin's sharp rise was e to the big funds coming in. People are generally optimistic about the expectation of bitcoin, and the price has gone up all the way. This is very similar to the stock market, even more crazy than the stock market. Buying a lot of bitcoin in the short term can make the price of bitcoin rise, but no one knows how much it will rise, and it's hard to say how much it needs to buy< br />
the difference is that bitcoin is a two-way transaction, which can be long or short. Bitcoin has no price limit
the volatility of bitcoin is far greater than that of stocks. We must do a good job in risk control and try to stay away from contracts.
in the eyes of most people, the market of digital currency is still a blue ocean. Although it is still in its early stage of development, many people have put all their wealth into it
for many investors who turn from stock market to currency circle, the currency market is easier to start, so is currency speculation the same as stock speculation? What's the difference between them? We will interpret the differences between the two from three perspectives: strategic level, structural level and phenomenal level
strategic level
strategic level is the initial intention and idea of investment, and the idea of stock market and currency market is also different, which determines how far you can go on this road
first, cognition
we must understand what the purpose of your blockchain investment is, whether you want to be a gambler or a long-term value investment for a few years< As we all know, gambling is a zero sum game. If someone loses money, someone must win. And for casinos or makers, the advantage of mathematical probability can ensure that they win without losing
the stock market is also a zero sum game. The money you win in the stock market must be lost by other investors. But in the long run, if you take the value investment strategy, then the stock market is an incremental market, because the operating income of listed companies will increase the total amount of capital on the stock market
the currency market is different. When you invest in blockchain, you are not only interested in the development of a project, but also in the development of the instry itself
in addition, you need to see the fact that most people in the blockchain instry are speculating in money, but not many people really do practical things< You should know that in the currency market, investors are not subject to any supervision and protection. Rise and fall at random, there is a risk of clearing at any time, and e to the immature technology, hackers often steal money risk
the mentality of retail investors is the psychology of most people in the market. In addition to the above, the running of the project side and the agent investment are very normal, resulting in the loss of money in the end. Everyone is pursuing a dream of wealth, but this dream itself may be false. Many people are on the wrong road from the beginning
in the stock market, most companies at least have business models and business models, while in the currency circle, many projects start ICO without even a white paper, and many people are crazy to pursue investment, which is very terrible
and you are the gambler who can be harvested by the dealer at any time
gambling itself is not terrible. The terrible thing is that you don't know you are gambling
structure layer
structure layer includes risk management and income control, as well as the current technology application scenarios of digital currency
first, risk
the only way to invest is to avoid risks. If you can't do a good job in risk management, it's equivalent to a headless fly. Let's take a look at policy risks first
stock market: China's stock market is managed and supervised by China Securities Regulatory Commission, and the state can regulate the stock market through policies. Stock trading has legal trading place, fixed trading time and limit of rise and fall, so the risk is controllable
currency market: except for the influence of different policies of different countries, it is not subject to any supervision and investors are not protected. And rise and fall at will, at any time to zero
from last year's 94, to this year's two sessions, G20 summit, to the SEC (US Securities and Exchange Commission), we can see that currency prices and policies are inseparable. It takes only a few minutes for a document to come down and plummet
besides policy risks, there are also technical risks
in February 2014, mt.gox advertised on the website page to stop the transaction and then filed for bankruptcy. Due to hacker attacks, a total of 744000 bitcoins were stolen, and this loss has not been found for many years. In addition to 750000 bitcoins of the platform, Mentougou claimed that 100000 bitcoins of the platform itself were also stolen. In other words, 850000 bitcoins were lost in this theft
not to mention the famous "Mentougou" incident, the asset theft incidents of other exchanges often occur many times a year. Once stolen, the currency price falls sharply, and the market will be affected
in addition, in order to achieve decentralization, bitcoin must have lost something, that is, efficiency. The bitcoin world emphasizes fairness, while the real world emphasizes efficiency
the disadvantages of bitcoin as a financial proct are slow transfer time and high handling charges< Second, the rate of return
compared with yu'ebao and P2P, although speculation in stocks and currency is no less than gambling, their rate of return is still different
compared with money funds, bonds and index funds, the stock market has high risk and high return, but in casinos and currency markets, it is actually a moderate risk and moderate return place
as long as it's not the irregular stock market of a certain country or the economic crisis like 1929 and 2008, it's not easy for investors to lose and lose
how high is the high yield of the currency market? As we all know, the average annual return of stock god Warren Buffett's position is only 20%, but the digital assets of many currency markets have increased by hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of times in just a few years. In particular, last year's isio, as long as it participated, was several times or even dozens of times
however, except for the mainstream currencies, the fluctuation of most Shanzhai currencies can not be described as big. It is just the so-called stock market has a drop limit, while the currency market has a return to zero< Thirdly, application scenarios
blockchain has the idea of decentralization. When the future development of basic information technology facilities makes efficiency no longer a problem, the demand for decentralization will become stronger and the change will be more fierce. This change is the uncertain factor of blockchain investment
although many projects have been implemented, it still does not mean that they have solved practical problems. We should know that all procts in the Internet era are implemented, while most of us only invest in concepts in the blockchain era
it is certain that more and more governments, banks and national institutions are beginning to apply blockchain technology, while quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and real good projects will fade with the tide, so that investors can get higher returns
phenomenon layer
the phenomenon layer mainly includes the policies and rules of different countries for digital money market
first, the transaction is different
the stock market: the stock market purchases the stock, and the stock is the certificate of ownership issued by the joint-stock company, which is a kind of valuable securities issued by the joint-stock company to each shareholder as the certificate of shareholding in order to raise funds and obtain dividends and dividends
and each share represents the ownership of a basic unit of the enterprise. Behind every stock is a listed company. At the same time, every listed company issues shares
currency market: what the currency market purchases is digital token or token, which is essentially a series of digital codes. The market generates transactions based on the trust expectation of the token value< Second, investors are different
stock market: to open a stock account, you must confirm on site, and procts with different risk levels need to be audited by qualified investors
currency market: without any restrictions, you can operate the relevant trading website or software Some exchanges in some countries and regions need real name authentication)
3. Trading places
stock market: stocks can only be traded on stock exchanges. China's stock market is only traded on Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange. A stock can only go to one exchange
currency market: digital currency exchange or point-to-point over-the-counter transaction can complete the transaction of digital currency. A digital currency can be traded on multiple exchanges at the same time. Understand this difference, you can understand why there is brick arbitrage in the currency market, but not in the stock market< 4. Trading rules
stock market:
trading time: from Monday to Friday (except statutory holidays); 9:30 a.m. - 11:30 p.m. - 13:00 p.m. - 15:00 p.m
the fluctuation range is limited: the fluctuation in a single day can not exceed 10%
trading unit: the trading unit of the stock is "share", 100 shares = 1 hand, and the number of entrusted purchase must be 100 shares or its integral multiple< Currency market:
1
2. There is no limit on the range of rise and fall: 50% rise or fall in one day may occur
3. Trading unit: different exchanges have different regulations on the number of single transactions in different currencies. Take bitcoin as an example, its minimum unit is Satoshi Cong, 1 Cong = 0.00000001 bitcoin, 1 Satoshi = 0.00000001 BTC
however, most bitcoin transactions stipulate the minimum number of transactions. For example, the minimum number of bitcoin transactions of okcoin is 0.01< 5. Different regulatory agencies
stock market: China's stock market is managed and supervised by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC), which is responsible for maintaining the order of the securities market and ensuring its legal operation
currency market: the currency market is a highly free market in the world, which is not fully monitored by any country, but is subject to the regulatory policies of various countries. The transaction information is highly transparent, and any trader can query all transaction records through the blockchain browser< 6. Different ways to raise funds
stock market: stock companies issuing shares to raise funds need to be under the management and supervision of the Securities Regulatory Commission of various countries. They can only be approved to be listed and issue shares to raise funds after being strictly reviewed by the CSRC and meeting relevant standards through a series of conditions
currency market: without any institutional audit, indivials and institutions can raise funds through ICO (initial public offering), private placement, bifurcations, etc., without any supervision, and investors are not protected
the correct investment posture of currency market is to correctly treat the similarities and differences of risks between stock market and currency market and reasonably allocate funds. In a bear market, we need to calm down and seriously consider the layout, so that we can see opportunities in a bull market
we will graally issue investment suggestions on the currency market later. Welcome to zhenxiao blockchain, we will accompany you all the way.
