practical significance

the digitalization of central bank's currency helps to optimize the central bank's monetary payment function, improve the central bank's monetary status and the effectiveness of monetary policy. The central bank's digital currency can become an interest bearing asset to meet the holder's reserve demand for safe assets, and can also become the lower limit of bank deposit interest rate

can also become a new monetary policy tool. At the same time, the central bank can affect the bank's deposit and loan interest rate by adjusting the central bank's digital currency interest rate, and help break the zero interest rate lower limit

operation system

fan Yifei, vice governor of the people's Bank of China, said in the article that the digital currency of the people's Bank of China should adopt a two-tier operation system. This model does not change the relationship between creditor's rights and debt of currency in circulation, does not change the existing money supply system and al account structure, does not constitute a competition for commercial banks' deposit currency, and does not increase commercial banks' dependence on the interbank lending market

will not affect the lending ability of commercial banks, and will not lead to the phenomenon of "financial disintermediation". At the same time, because it does not affect the existing monetary policy transmission mechanism, it will not strengthen the pro cyclical effect under the pressure environment, and it can improve the convenience and security of payment, and it also has the credit advantage of central bank endorsement

2.

The people's Bank of China has not issued digital currency for the time being, so there is no legal digital currency in China at present. At present, digital currency has not been recognized in China, let alone legal

at present, all kinds of digital currencies circulating in the market are basically on the edge of the law. China maintains a neutral attitude, but does not like speculation, which is also the basic attitude of the central bank{ RRRRR}

digital currency is abbreviated as digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital currency" in English and the alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy

digital currency is different from the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it can be used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games. The early digital currency (digital gold currency) is a form of electronic currency named after the weight of gold. Today's digital currency, such as bitcoin, lightcoin and ppcoin, is an electronic currency created, issued and circulated by check sum cryptography. It is characterized by the use of P2P peer-to-peer network technology to issue, manage and circulate currency. In theory, it avoids bureaucratic examination and approval, so that everyone has the right to issue currency

Generally, the excellent digital currencies are mostly imported procts, such as bitcoin, Leyte coin, ether coin and so on. However, the domestic Yuanbao coin, Ruitai coin, bitcoin and the tokens of different crowdfunding projects of European crowdfunding are excellent digital currencies

digital currency (English: digital currency) is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. At present, no central bank of any government has indicated that it will issue digital currency, and digital currency does not have to have a benchmark currency and a central bank

it is different from the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it can be used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games. The early digital currency (digital gold currency) is a form of electronic currency named after the weight of gold.

4. . He Maochun, director of the Central Economic Committee of the Democratic League of China, said that in a broad sense, digital currency is a kind of electronic currency, which is closely related to network technology, has the attributes of payment and circulation, and can be used as a substitute for paper money. Zhou Xiaochuan said that the issuance, circulation and transaction of China's digital currency should follow the idea of integration of traditional currency and digital currency, and implement the same principle of management
although the issuing method of digital currency is still under study, paper currency has been regarded as "the currency of the previous generation" by some professionals, and it is the general trend to be replaced by new technologies and procts. He Maochun predicted that when the era of digital currency really comes, people will carry less and less cash, travel more and more safe, poverty alleviation more and more accurate, corruption more and more difficult to escape, and thieves more and more difficult to be
on the other hand, the application-oriented digital currency, which is mainly based on the token in China, is also emerging.

5. The news that the Central Bank of China will issue digital currency has been reported in authoritative media such as NetEase Finance, Phoenix, Sina and Sohu. This is very big news for the digital currency circle, but the impact on the currency circle is very limited. The price fluctuation of bitcoin and counterfeit currency is small
because the digital currency to be issued by the central bank will be ten years later at the earliest, and the design concepts of this digital currency are different from those of bitcoin, Ruitai, Laite and Weimeng.
