Blockchain has no digital currency

1. Thank you
thank you
to know the difference between them, we need to know the definition of them first
digital currency: short for digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital
currency", is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy
blockchain: blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies. Blockchain is essentially a decentralized database, also known as the trust machine
from the above definition, we can know that blockchain is a technology, and digital currency is a kind of virtual currency
digital currency is not equal to blockchain
many people will understand blockchain as blockchain. Here I want to correct that digital currency is not equal to blockchain. Digital currency is only an application of blockchain, and some digital currencies may not be applied to blockchain technology.

2. Digital currency is an application of blockchain
blockchain is the core supporting technology of digital cryptocurrency system represented by bitcoin. The core advantage of blockchain technology is decentralization. It can realize point-to-point transaction, coordination and cooperation based on decentralized credit in a distributed system without mutual trust by means of data encryption, time stamp, distributed consensus and economic incentive, so as to solve the common high cost, low cost and low cost of centralized institutions Low efficiency and data storage insecurity provide solutions
the application fields of blockchain include digital currency, token, finance, anti-counterfeiting traceability, privacy protection, supply chain, entertainment, etc. with the popularity of blockchain and bitcoin, many related top domain names have been registered, which has a great impact on the domain name instry
taking the tourism instry as an example, blockchain applications mainly focus on tourism travel, tourism community reviews, digital identity management, credit consumption management, tracking pilot's professional certificate and qualification, loyalty plan of hotels and airlines, reservation management and consumption points management. In addition, blockchain also has applications in finance, games, entertainment and other fields.

5. In recent years, blockchain technology has graally been paid close attention by the financial instry at home and abroad. Central banks, commercial banks and Internet enterprises in some countries actively explore blockchain technology and its application in the financial field. Digital currency involves distributed architecture, cryptography, security chip, mobile payment, trusted computing and other technologies. Blockchain technology is only one of the optional implementation technologies of digital currency. Whether it will be applied to digital currency in the future depends on whether the deficiencies of blockchain technology in network security, business processing performance and transaction consistency can be solved, and on the unremitting exploration and improvement of instry university research parties in their technical system and application framework. Therefore, in 2016, the people's Bank of China chose to build a blockchain technology application prototype system in the bill business scenario, actively organized all parties to study its technology maturity and business adaptability, and verified the feasibility of its large-scale application in the financial instry Netease)
the application of blockchain in digital currency has been proved to be a feasible solution. At present, the mainstream digital currency in China basically uses blockchain technology. For example, bitcoin, Puyin, lightcoin, Ethereum classic, etc.
