Degree element and bitcoin
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
unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency institution to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. 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 currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity.

The earliest is a kind of network virtual currency. 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. In 2013, the U.S. government recognized the legal status of bitcoin, making the price of bitcoin soar
< H2 > extended information:bitcoin is e-cash similar to e-mail. Both parties need "bitcoin wallet" similar to e-mail and "bitcoin address" similar to e-mail address. Just like sending and receiving e-mail, the remitter pays bitcoin directly to the other party through a computer or smart phone according to the recipient's address
starting from the essence of bitcoin, the essence of bitcoin is actually a special solution generated by a bunch of complex algorithms. A special solution is one of the infinite (in fact, bitcoin is finite) solutions that can be obtained from the equations. Every particular solution can solve the equation and is unique
many websites for technology players have begun to accept bitcoin transactions. Websites such as mtgox and btcchina, as well as some Taobao stores, can even accept services such as bitcoin exchange for us dollars and euro. There is no doubt that bitcoin has become a real currency in circulation, rather than a virtual currency like Tencent Q coin
There are two relations between bitcash and bitcoin: bitcash is the bifurcated and competitive currency of bitcoin{ RRRRR}
Second, competitive currency. As the name suggests, they are two competing currencies. It is just like the competition of two kinds of homogeneous goods in the market, competing for market share. In the virtual digital currency market, the market share is so large that more people hold one kind of currency, the number of people holding another kind of currency will be relatively reced, forming a competitive relationship between you and me
in these two relationships, competitive currency is easier to understand, while forked currency is more difficult because it is a technical problem
is the relationship between the two currencies clear now
then, what is sacred about "the universe"? What changes will it bring to our lives
according to the answers given on the official website, we can learn that the universe is more like a game. By virtue of the concept of the universe, the Internet has formed a magical world, which is composed of various rare elements. In the "universe", everyone has his own small planet. Each user starts his own journey from his own planet through wormhole. When traveling, users will meet all kinds of planets, and each planet is allowed to be explored. On these planets, users may have unexpected gains
it seems that the concept of "degree universe" is somewhat abstract and has a sense of technology. It seems that this is also the trend of future games. In this digital universe constructed by elements, gravitation and planets, users can expand their own planets with the so-called "elements". The larger the mass of the planet, the higher the level, and correspondingly get many new functions. In this one, also applied to the knowledge of the universe and physics, so that the whole game has a sense of science fiction, eye-catching
when it comes to blockchain, many people will immediately think of bitcoin, a kind of digital currency. This kind of virtual currency can finally circulate like real currency, and it is very popular all over the world
then, let's briefly introce blockchain. Blockchain is a kind of chain data structure that combines data blocks in order according to the time sequence, and it can't be tampered and forged by cryptography. Blockchain is also an important concept of bitcoin. In essence, it is a decentralized database
however, the "universe" of network development is different from bitcoin. It is not a digital currency, but a game activity that everyone can participate in, which is equivalent to a digital society. The goal of the network is to let everyone find themselves in a network universe.
unlike most 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 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 currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction.

The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount 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
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[ 1-2]
on February 26, 2014, Joe Manchin, a Democratic senator from West Virginia, issued an open letter to a number of regulatory authorities of the US federal government, hoping that the relevant institutions would pay attention to the status quo of bitcoin's encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and take action as soon as possible to completely ban the electronic currency.
