When bitcoin was first released
It was officially born on January 3, 2009
since 2015, the future of bitcoin has become more and more uncertain. On the one hand, bitcoin fell as much as 55.55% against RMB last year; In 2015, bitcoin fell by more than 30% against the RMB in the first half of January alone
bitcoin's "falling" reflects the "self-healing" of its value after "fanaticism" to a certain extent. According to statistics, in 2013, bitcoin rose from 1 ∶ 13.59 to 1 ∶ 731, with an annual increase of 5300%. This speculative driven inflation has affected the virtual currency property on which bitcoin relies
on the one hand, no country has defined it as a legal currency. On the other hand, in 2014, the US dollar rose significantly, and the prices of oil and bulk commodities fell correspondingly. The price trend of bitcoin is the same as that of the latter, becoming part of the asset allocation of some speculators, which highlights that its asset attribute is far greater than the monetary attribute
extended data
Security and credit risk have also become the reasons for the decline of investor confidence. Mt. GOx, once the world's largest bitcoin exchange, claimed in March last year that it had lost all its assets e to hacker attacks. Recently, it was revealed that its lost bitcoin was probably e to internal system manipulation
the regulatory environment of bitcoin is not optimistic, and Russia, Thailand and other countries have begun to implement strict control on it. In addition, the global stock market performed well last year, resulting in the diversion of bitcoin investment funds, and the crazy "mining" activities also rapidly increased the supply of bitcoin, which may lead to a trend of oversupply in the short term, leading to a sharp drop in the price of bitcoin
Bitcoin was born in 2009, and it has entered China since it appeared
extended information:
bitcoin:
bitcoin can be used to cash and can be 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 concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's ideas, open source software was designed and released, and P2P network was built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
generation principle:
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. In the metaphor of RMB, bitcoin is the serial number of RMB. If you know the serial number of a note, you 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.
the explanation of bitcoin is as follows:
the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, open source software was designed and released, and P2P network was built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system.
bitcoin is not a currency. First of all, it is not issued by the state and is not protected by law in addition, the quantity of bitcoin is scarce, which can not meet the function of currency circulation and trading
I believe everyone has heard of bitcoin, especially with the advent of the virtual currency trend, many virtual currencies are marked with & lt; When you missed bitcoin, don't miss so and so now; The slogan of the advertisement comes face to face. So even if many people don't know bitcoin, they are passive< so bitcoin is not a household name in the world, but also a national virtual currency
you should know that the most important thing of currency is to have national endorsement, which is the legal tender of the country, so that it is possible to circulate and trade in the world in addition, the amount of money must be proportional to the number of people, which requires the country to carry out complex calculations and surveys
On the other hand, bitcoin is not supported by the state, let alone issued by a certain country. Moreover, the number of bitcoins is simply too small compared to the audience< therefore, bitcoin is more like a virtual collection than money1 this question is very important. The foreign exchange market is different from the stock market. It has no exchange and is a discrete global trading mode. The essence of the foreign exchange market is the inter-bank market, that is, the market in which the world's major banks trade with each other. Because the trading volume between them is very large, ordinary investors can not participate in it, so there is a platform business. These platform providers build a bridge between retail investors and the interbank market. When retail investors place an order, they are actually trading with the platform business, and the platform business uses the funds of retail investors to trade with the bank. So, it is the platform that provides you with margin service, and the margin will stay on the platform for the time being. As for the economic line you mentioned, it is actually a secondary agent. They are the agents of platform companies, so they charge more commissions
2 your reasoning is a little complicated, so you should try to use the common measurement standards of foreign exchange instry for calculation. Take Europe and the United States as an example, assuming that the exchange rate is 13000, we call one ten thousandth of the exchange rate 1 point. One hand contract is US $100000. Suppose our account is US $10000 and the margin is 1%. Now we buy a first-hand contract with a margin of $1000. At this time, the margin balance is $9000. If the exchange rate drops by one point, our balance will decrease by 10 US dollars. If the exchange rate drops 900 points, the margin balance becomes zero. These changes are reflected in your account, and they are all immediate
in fact, when the margin balance is close to zero, it is generally about 10 points, that is, about $100, the platform will force you to close the position, that is, the so-called burst position. At this point, you have about $1100 left in your account. In actual transactions, margin is used to prevent sudden major changes in the market price, generally will not be used. Therefore, there is no need to worry about platform providers
however, in order to win customers, the mainstream platforms often adopt more radical methods. When the margin balance is zero, they still keep the position of retail investors and start to lose margin. Take the above example as an example, the margin balance begins to turn negative. For every 1 point decline in the market, the margin decreases by $10. When the margin remains about 10 points, that is, about $100, the platform will forcibly close the position. At this time, the account balance is only about $100, which is a complete burst
I think the above answers your third question at the same time
4 if you buy Canada Japan, platform vendors actually need to use US dollars as a bridge to exchange for two times, so the gap between Canada and Japan is the sum of Canada and the United States and Japan, or even larger. However, as a retail investor, you don't have to think too much about it. It's all the work of the platform Shang Dynasty. You just need to know that if you add one day fluctuation point, 0,1 contract fluctuation is 1 / (0.01 * US Japan exchange rate) US dollars
however, it is worth mentioning that the euro / yen exchange rate in the cross section is quite special, because the trading volume is very large, it is often direct trading, and it does not need to be mediated by the US dollar, so the currency spread is relatively small on many platforms
I hope I can help you.
