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
what is bitcoin
a virtual currency
What is bitcoin< p> Bitcoin was a kind of virtual currency at the beginning, 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. Bitcoin is not subject to geographical restrictions and can be exchanged anywhere in the world. Therefore, it is also used as a money laundering tool by some criminals. In 2013, the US government recognized the legal status of bitcoin, which made the price of bitcoin rise a lot. At that time, a bitcoin was equivalent to 6989 yuan. After that, bitcoin was blocked by many parties because of its status quo of encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order. China stopped the registration of new users on September 14, 2017, and stopped all trading business on September 30
1. Bitcoin:
also known as "bitcoin", is a kind of network virtual currency. Internet users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual goods, such as clothes, hats and equipment in online games. Internet users can also use bitcoin to buy real goods
2. The origin of bitcoin: the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, the open source software was designed and released, and the P2P network on it was constructed. 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. 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 uses the design of cryptography to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation
extended data :
the generation principle of bitcoin:
starting from the essence of bitcoin, the essence of bitcoin is actually the 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
compared with RMB, bitcoin is the serial number of RMB. If you know the serial number of a note, you will have the note. The process of mining is to constantly seek the special solution of this equation system through a huge amount of calculation. This equation system is designed to have only 21 million special solutions, so the upper limit of bitcoin is 21 million
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
on December 17, 2017, bitcoin reached an all-time high of $19850. On July 27, 2020, bitcoin broke the $10000 mark again
bitcoin is a kind of network virtual currency, which is similar to Tencent's q-coin. You can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats and equipment in online games. As long as someone accepts it, you can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items
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 has no more than 10.5 million in the first four years, and the total number after that will be permanently limited to 21 million. Another point is that you can use computers to make bitcoin<

bitcoin is a kind of electronic currency proced by open source P2P software. Bitcoin has also been paraphrased as "bitgold". The concept of virtual currency bitcoin was first proposed by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. Now bitcoin is also used to refer to bitcoin's open source software designed and released according to the ideas of Satoshi Nakamoto and the P2P network built on it. Unlike most currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific central issuing institution, but uses a distributed database throughout the P2P network nodes to record currency transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. For example, bitcoin can only be used by its real owner, and only once, after the payment is completed, the original owner loses the ownership of the bitcoin
features
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
warm tips:
1. The above explanations are for reference only, without any suggestions
2. Before investing, it is recommended that you first understand the risks existing in the project, and clearly understand the investors, investment institutions, chain activity and other information of the project, rather than blindly investing or mistakenly entering the capital market. Investment is risky, so we should be cautious when entering the market
