What does China's digital currency blockchain use

1. In a narrow sense, blockchain is a kind of chained data structure that combines data blocks in chronological order in a way of sequential connection, and it is a distributed account book that can not be tampered with and forged by cryptography. In a broad sense, blockchain technology is a new distributed infrastructure and computing paradigm, which uses blockchain data structure to verify and store data, uses distributed node consensus algorithm to generate and update data, uses cryptography to ensure the security of data transmission and access, and uses intelligent contract composed of automated script code to program and operate data
nowadays, the mainstream digital currencies are basically developed based on blockchain technology. Blockchain is the underlying technology of digital currency. The domestic tea based digital currency Puyin is developed based on blockchain technology.

2. 1. Blockchain is an account book for recording digital currency transactions

taking bitcoin as an example, it does not have an entity form, but exists in a special account book. All bitcoin transactions are recorded in the ledger. Through the transaction records, we can calculate the number of bitcoins owned by each user. If a person owns bitcoin, it means that he can find the relevant transaction records in the ledger

the ledger mentioned here is a software that we can download from bitcoin's official website, and the underlying technology used in this software is blockchain. In order to facilitate understanding, we usually say that blockchain is the ledger

the reason why blockchain is used as the underlying technology of ledger is to realize the feature of digital currency decentralization. It can be said that the starting point of a series of problems and solutions of digital currency comes from decentralization
2. Blockchain is a technology to ensure the safe use of digital currency. As we all know, blockchain technology has the characteristics of encryption and non tampering, which can rece the probability of errors in the use of digital currency to 0. Because digital currency requires higher encryption, it must be supported by blockchain technology. At present, not only many instries in China are using blockchain technology, but also many foreign countries are actively using blockchain technology.

3. What is digital currency? Is it the same thing as electronic money and virtual money
the difference between digital currency, electronic currency and virtual currency
in fact, digital currency is a kind of indexed RMB, a legal encrypted digital currency and an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Digital currency can be divided into two types: non cryptocurrency (e-gold, XRP) and cryptocurrency (bitcoin)
it can not be completely equivalent to the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it is often used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games and other virtual spaces. It is different from Alipay and WeChat, and Alipay, WeChat payment and mobile phone banks are all electronic money, not digital money. The popular digital currencies in 2016 include bitcoin, lightcoin, bitstock, etc. At present, there are thousands of digital currencies issued all over the world
virtual currency refers to the non real currency, especially the currency in the network virtual economy. The issuer is not the central bank, and it can only circulate in a specific virtual environment. In the case of the connection between virtual and reality, virtual currency has its real value. Well known virtual currencies, such as online currency of Internet company, q-coin of Tencent company, q-point, roll counting of Shanda company, u-coin meter ticket launched by Sina (used for igome game), chivalrous Yuanbao (used for chivalrous road game), and grain silver (used for bixue Qingtian game). Digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency. For example, bitcoin is illegal digital currency
since the beginning of the year, the relevant person in charge of the people's Bank of China has said that the future of mobile payment is bright, and the central bank is actively studying the relevant research results and practical experience at home and abroad to strive for the early issuance of digital currency. At the digital currency seminar of the people's Bank of China held on January 20, the relevant person in charge of the people's Bank of China disclosed that the central bank has set up a special research team since 2014 to conct in-depth research on the digital currency issuance and business operation framework, key technologies, circulation environment, etc., and strive to launch the digital currency issued by the central bank as soon as possible. At present, the research has achieved phased results
what benefits will digital currency bring to our lives
for this problem, the relevant person in charge of the central bank said that if the digital currency is successfully issued, it will bring many conveniences: it can effectively rece the high cost of the issuance and circulation of traditional paper money, and improve the convenience and transparency of economic transaction activities; It can rece money laundering, tax evasion and other illegal and criminal acts, enhance the central bank's control over money supply and money circulation, better support economic and social development, and help the comprehensive realization of Inclusive Finance; It helps to build a new financial infrastructure, further improve the payment system, improve the efficiency of payment and clearing, and promote the upgrading of economic quality and efficiency. More digital currencies can focus on bitMom
