What is bitcoin settlement currency
1. The concept range is different. bitcoin is a kind of digital currency, and the concept of digital currency covers bitcoin
However, some digital currencies have independent issuers The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total quantity of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to 21 milliondigital currency is abbreviated as digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital currency" in English. It is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy. Bitcoin is a digital currency
digital currency is different from the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it can be used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games. The early digital currency (digital gold currency) is a form of electronic currency named after the weight of gold
today's digital currencies, such as bitcoin, lettercoin and ppcoin, are electronic currencies created, issued and circulated by means of check sum cryptography. It is characterized by the use of P2P peer-to-peer network technology to issue, manage and circulate currency. In theory, it avoids bureaucratic examination and approval, so that everyone has the right to issue currency

illegal digital currency
in recent years, "virtual currency" represented by bitcoin, Ethernet currency and Leyte currency has been traded centrally on some Internet platforms. With the help of financial technology, the price of these "currencies" has graally spread to investment, financing and other financial fields, which has aroused wide attention from all walks of life
not long ago, the people's Bank of China and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, which clearly regulated the relevant behaviors. Experts pointed out that "virtual currency" is not legal tender (legal currency) issued by monetary authorities, but a specific virtual commodity in essence
therefore, it is undoubtedly a great legal and economic risk to think that "virtual currency" has or will have the nature of legal tender and to carry out speculation, network fund-raising, lending and financing
Similar to futures contract, it is a trading method proposed by bitstar
the leverage of bitcoin virtual contract is shown as the leverage stability of the revenue level of legal currency: if you invest US $100, the revenue you can get = US $100 * the rise and fall of bitcoin * the fixed leverage ratio
assuming that the current price is 500usd / BTC, an investor can buy a BTC at the current price, and the principal is 500usd. At this time, the investor can make 50 more BTC virtual contracts
at this time, if the price of BTC rises to US $750, or 50%, the investor's contract income is 3.3333 BTCs, which can be sold at the current price to get us $2500, and the income is five times of the principal investment
bitcoin futures provided by bitcoin exchanges are usually traded in bitcoin. Futures is opposite to spot. Spot is a commodity that can be paid and delivered at the same time. In fact, futures is not "goods", but an agreement (contract) - futures contract that promises to deliver "goods" (subject matter) at a future time
extended data:
futures contract is an agreement that the buyer agrees to receive certain assets at a specific price after a specified period of time, and the Seller agrees to deliver certain assets at a specific price after a specified period of time. The price that both parties agree to use in future trading is called futures price
the specified date on which both parties must conct transactions in the future is called settlement date or delivery date. The assets agreed to be exchanged by both parties are called "subject matter". If an investor gains a position in the market by buying a futures contract (i.e. agreeing to buy at a future date), it is called long position or long in futures
On the contrary, if the position obtained by investors is to sell the futures contract (i.e. bear the contract responsibility to sell in the future), they are short positions or short on the futuresBitcoin is a kind of virtual encrypted digital currency in the form of P2P. Different from all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, And the use of cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of money circulation. However, on September 4, 2017, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions announced that virtual currency trading is prohibited in China, and bitcoin is prohibited from circulating in China
according to the first article of the notice on preventing the financing risks of token issuance, we should accurately understand the essential attributes of token issuance financing activities. Token issuance financing refers to the illegal sale and circulation of tokens by the financing subject to raise the so-called virtual currency such as bitcoin and ether coin from investors. In essence, it is an unauthorized illegal public financing behavior, which is suspected of illegal sale of token bills, illegal issuance of securities, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal criminal activities
Relevant departments will closely monitor relevant developments, strengthen cooperation with judicial departments and local governments, strictly enforce the law in accordance with the current working mechanism, and resolutely deal with market chaos. If suspected crimes are found, they will be transferred to judicial organs. The token or "virtual currency" used in token issuance financing is not issued by the monetary authority, does not have such monetary attributes as legal compensation and compulsion, does not have the same legal status as currency, and cannot and should not be used as currency in the market
extended information:
Article 3 of the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance strengthens the management of token financing trading platform. From the date of this announcement, any so-called token financing trading platform shall not engage in the exchange business between legal tender and token and "virtual currency", nor buy or sell token or "virtual currency" as a central counterpart, nor provide pricing, information intermediary and other services for token or "virtual currency"
for the token financing trading platform with illegal problems, the financial management department will request the competent department of telecommunications to close its website platform and mobile app according to law, request the network information department to remove the mobile app from the app store, and request the instrial and commercial administration department to revoke its business license according to law
Article 4 financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall not carry out business related to token issuance financing transactions. All financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall not directly or indirectly provide procts or services such as account opening, registration, trading, clearing and settlement for token issuance and financing and "virtual currency", nor undertake insurance business related to token and "virtual currency" or include token and "virtual currency" into the scope of insurance liability. Financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall report to the relevant departments in a timely manner if they find clues of violation of laws and regulations in token issuance financing transactions

generally speaking, bitcoin is based on a set of cipher codes and generated through complex algorithms. This rule is not interfered by any indivial or organization and is decentralized; Anyone can download and run the bitcoin client to participate in the proction of bitcoin; Bitcoin uses electronic signature to realize circulation, and checks repeated consumption through P2P distributed network. The generation and consumption of each bitcoin will be recorded through the P2P distributed network and informed to the whole network. There is no possibility of forgery
bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions to issue. It is generated through a large number of calculations of specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions. The decentralized characteristics and algorithms of P2P can ensure that bitcoin can not be artificially manipulated by mass proction. The design based on cryptography can only make bitcoin be transferred or paid by real owners. This ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions
bitcoin can be cashed and converted into the currency of most countries. Users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats and equipment in online games. As long as someone accepts it, they can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items
the biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total quantity of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to 21 million
the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. According to the idea of Satoshi Nakamoto, open source software and P2P network were designed and released
the reason why bitcoin is anonymous is that they are built on a decentralized system. Bitcoin is completely independent, and the outside world cannot shut it down through some kind of core infrastructure
"anonymity" is very useful for those who don't want to associate their name with the goods or services they buy. What outsiders see is nothing more than the address of your bitcoin wallet and a string of random words and numbers. Apart from that, there is no personal identification information. For relatively paranoid users, you can also create multiple new wallets for free
bitcoin is designed to allow anonymous ownership and use rights. Bitcoin can be stored in personal computers in the form of computer files (wallet) or in third-party hosting services. No matter how it is saved, bitcoin can be sent to anyone on the Internet through its address. The distributed characteristics of P2P and the design of no central management mechanism ensure that no organization can manipulate the value of bitcoin or create inflation<
its main features are as follows:
1. Decentralization
bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, and the whole network is composed of users without a central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom<
2. Bitcoin can be managed on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where you are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or collect bitcoin
3. Exclusive ownership
the private key is required to control bitcoin, which can be stored in any storage medium in isolation. No one can get it except the user himself
4. Low transaction cost
bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but in the end, a transaction fee of about 1 bitfen will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster transaction execution
5. No hidden cost
as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin has no cumbersome limit of quota and proceres. If you know the other party's bitcoin address, you can pay
6. Cross platform mining
users can explore the computing power of different hardware on many platforms
