Total current value of bitcoin
the price of bitcoin is always floating, so the price of bitcoin for RMB is always changing. From the beginning, a few years ago, when bitcoin was converted into RMB, it was only one to several, and finally it graally developed to one to more than ten, and then to one to dozens. At this time, it has been very shocking, and many people think it is a very strange phenomenon, As a virtual currency, although many people don't know what its main function is, most people think it's a bit similar to stocks, so they made a series of investments in bitcoin. Until January 2020, the value of bitcoin has grown crazily, rising to nearly 1:47000 this growth rate has exceeded most excellent stocks. Many people are shocked and often want to understand why this phenomenon occurs. In fact, my analysis is mainly caused by the following reasons:
3 Of course, one of the main reasons why the price of bitcoin has risen so fast is also related to the psychology of chasing up and killing down. For example, when many stocks have been rising, more people will buy them, but when they are falling, many people withdraw because of fear. So far, bitcoin's rise is still very large, Therefore, some people think it has investment value, so they have been buying it
The price of bitcoin changes
the figure below shows all the price changes of bitcoin. It can be seen from the figure that bitcoin can only be traded in 2013, and the price is about 700 yuan. Up to now, the price of bitcoin is about 44800 yuan, an increase of n times
both sides of virtual currency transaction need bitcoin wallet and bitcoin 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
at present, bitcoin can be traded in the market by legal currency or virtual currency
The original intention of Nakamoto's design of bitcoin is to build a point-to-point trading network that is decentralized, transaction information can not be tampered with, and the total amount of money is constant, so as to solve the problems of excessive issuance of legal currency and inflation
this is the value of bitcoin's initial design, to keep the purchasing power of money
But later, the development of bitcoin went against Nakamoto's idea. In the past nine years, the price of bitcoin soared by millions of times, creating countless myths of sudden wealth and driving another instry miningthe value of bitcoin has become a tool for "sudden wealth". More and more people join the bitcoin network, hoping to achieve financial freedom. Digital cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin have become investment procts, like diamonds or gold
by purchasing bitcoin, people can achieve the purpose of wealth appreciation and asset preservation in many troubled areas. At the same time, many people make use of the fluctuation of bitcoin price to speculate, such as moving bricks, making bands and so on
another important value of bitcoin can not be ignored is blockchain, the underlying technology of bitcoin. Because of the popularity of bitcoin, many companies and indivials begin to pay attention to blockchain, and constantly try to use blockchain technology to change the existing business and create new value. It is with the help of bitcoin that blockchain has achieved such rapid development
bitcoin is also a great social experiment for all mankind, which promotes the reform of the financial instry and gives many original things a new perspective
explain why it's left and right, because the price of each platform is different, so there will be some differences, but the fluctuation will not be too large. There is also a total of 21 million bitcoins, but there are still many that have not been g up so far, so when we calculate the market value, we just calculate the total current value.
the most familiar and easy to understand is Bill Gates and his Microsoft Windows operating system. Windows has entered into thousands of households and instries. People have improved proctivity and created great value through this computer program. As a result, Microsoft even once became the company with the highest market value in the world
What about bitcoin, also a software with high "value"“ In fact, many people want to know what kind of value bitcoin brings to people and things, thus supporting the consensus on bitcoin and steadily boosting its market value to more than 1 trillion< Miners and other participants in mining ecology
to put it simply, bitcoin mining machine is a machine that keeps making profits for miners. It can lay eggs like a chicken and proce value, and even go to the road of ten billion rich. This is the value of bitcoin for miners, mining airport operators, mining pools (service providers) and other people who participate in the upstream and downstream of mining ecology. Miners are the most important participants for bitcoin, and for miners, the miner that can proce bitcoin is a "hen" that can lay golden eggs. Although the journey of mining is not as simple as expected, and it's really a bit like opening a "chicken farm", which needs to provide all kinds of suitable environment, maintenance and "food" (energy) transportation to successfully proce "golden eggs" for profit, the miners are attracted by the benefit distribution mechanism of bitcoin, and new miners are constantly joining in
2. User
the full name of bitcoin system is a peer-to-peer e-cash system, so for users, it can be used to initiate transfer transactions. So why use it to transfer money? To put it bluntly, it means saving time, effort and money. Bitcoin does not need to transit through banks, third-party payment companies and so on to reach the other party's account directly, which eliminates the processing time, operation manpower and fees of third-party institutions. The fees collected by banks and other financial institutions through financial services can show how huge the fees are. In fact, many people don't understand the concept of the third-party guarantee agency very well. Most of the time, we transfer money for free, because in the credit society, small amount transfer is completed through the credit line between different financial institutions, which is not a real transfer
3. Savers and speculators
because bitcoin has value in use, and has many high-quality characteristics, especially like gold, and some of its characteristics are better than gold. It also has the function of "partial" risk aversion and value saving like gold, so it is graally regarded as gold, an international hard currency, and began to be hoarded by many people
4. People in poor and backward or "turbulent" areas
e to the low transfer cost and short time required by bitcoin. In many poor and backward countries, there is no need to build expensive network infrastructure to transfer money through encrypted network. Bitcoin's infrastructure is built by miners all over the world, which does not need the burden of poor countries' governments. There is no intermediate cost for payment and payment of salaries, which can save a lot of money< There are many such corners in the world, which are remote but rich in mineral resources or natural resources such as water conservancy and wind power. For example, there are many coal mines in some areas, but e to the high transportation cost, they can not be transported out. At the same time, e to the lack of people, the power generated by thermal power, hydropower stations and wind farms built in these areas is very surplus, and the economy of these areas is often relatively backward. At this time, they need and welcome miners to settle in. Miners not only bring a lot of jobs, but also convert the local surplus energy into power resources, and then generate a lot of income through bitcoin mining. This is actually equivalent to storing the energy value that might have been surplus and wasted through bitcoin network, and then paying the local government and people through electricity charges, Drive the local economy<
