Scale of digital currency Research Institute of the people's
Huang Zhen, director of the Institute of financial law of Central University of Finance and economics, said that digital currency mainly refers to the form of currency and will not cause currency shrinkage. The issuing scale of money is still controlled by the central bank, while the issue of paper money or digital money is just a change of form< In addition, Huang Zhen mentioned that the issue of digital currency is still in the stage of discussion, which is an innovative mechanism of currency value symbol, and many problems are still under study. However, in practice, people are more and more inclined to use e-banking and e-payment rather than carrying notes. Under this trend, the number of banknotes in circulation in the future may decrease
the central bank's issuing of digital currency is still inspired by encrypted digital currencies such as bitcoin and lettercoin, and so is the token of European crowdfunding platform. The digital currency issued by the central bank has monetary attributes, while the token of European crowdfunding platform can only be a kind of asset certificate, a niche proct.
The digital currency of the central bank is DCEP
the name of the digital currency developed by the central bank is DCEP (digital currency electronic payment). DC is digital currency. EP is electronic payment. Payment transmits digital things through a certain way, not paper currency. Therefore, electronic payment itself has the attribute of digital currency
The characteristics of digital currency are: low transaction cost; Fast trading speed; Highly anonymous

Application of digital currency
I. fast, economic and safe payment and settlement
cross border payment helps RMB internationalization. In 2015, the settlement volume of cross-border payment involving current account is about 8 trillion yuan. To accelerate the internationalization of RMB, cross-border payment and settlement procts and solutions with low cost, high efficiency and low risk are needed
At present, there are still a lot of repetitive human work in the bank's electronic loan process and processing process, and as the basic support of loan issuance, many of the collateral has the situation of false pricing or multiple or even no collateral. We can consider using digital currency to price and track bank collateral:3. Bill finance and supply chain finance
in recent years, various bill market businesses based on commercial bills have grown rapidly, and bill financing procts have become a hot area of Internet financing. However, about 70% of the current bill businesses in China are still paper transactions, Supply chain finance is also highly dependent on labor costs

It doesn't matter
the central bank's digital currency is digital RMB, which is issued by the people's Bank of China. On March 9, 2018, Zhou Xiaochuan, then governor of the central bank, officially disclosed the name of the legal digital currency being developed as DCEP at a press conference
DCEP is the abbreviation of digital currency electronic payment. This means that the central bank's digital currency will have the al functions of legal currency and electronic payment at the same time In September 2013, the Ministry of Public Security announced 10 typical pyramid selling cases, among which "Cloud Data Trade" is a large-scale pyramid selling mode in China
extended data:
specifically, the characteristics of DCEP are mainly reflected in finance and technology
1. As far as its financial characteristics are concerned, the functions and attributes of the central bank's digital currency are exactly the same as those of the RMB paper currency, which is only a digital version of the paper currency. This shows that digital currency is legal tender, and it depends on national credit to maintain the circulation system of digital currency. Mu Changchun, director of the digital currency Research Institute of the central bank, clearly pointed out that DCEP "is a digital payment tool with value characteristics"
In economics, M0 is often used to refer to the cash circulating outside the banking system. The central bank's positioning of DCEP is to replace M0, that is, to replace cash2. In terms of technical features, the digital currency of the central bank has not fully adopted the blockchain technology. The blockchain research group of the digital currency Research Institute of the people's Bank of China has pointed out in a paper that the processing efficiency of the blockchain system needs to be improved. The encrypted assets based on this technology can not guarantee the stability of its anchored assets. At the same time, its decentralization also conflicts with the central bank's centralized management requirements
however, it is said that digital currency draws lessons from some of these technical concepts, such as asymmetric encryption, smart contract and so on. The new cryptocurrency system has the advantages of security, controllable anonymity and unforgeability, which makes up for the problems of high cost, difficult tracking and large counterfeiting
In early 2014, the Central Bank of China set up a special research group on legal digital currency to demonstrate the feasibility of issuing legal digital currency by the central bank. On January 29, 2017, the central bank officially established the digital currency Research Institute. After the successful development of the prototype of legal digital currency, the digital currency Research Institute of the people's Bank of China has tried to deploy institutions in many parts of the country, and through the integration with R & D institutions and instries, it has achieved the research results of financial development technology. In 2018, the digital currency Research Institute of the people's Bank of China successively settled in Nanjing and Shenzhen. In 2019, the people's Bank of China announced that digital currency will be piloted in Shenzhen, Suzhou, Cheng and xiong'an

electronic currency is the digitalization of legal tender, including our common bank cards, Internet banking, electronic cash, Alipay and so on. No matter what the form of these electronic money is and through which institutions it circulates, its original source is the legal money issued by the central bank
In contrast, virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. For example, Tencent Q coin and other game coins, such virtual currency is mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment; Bitcoin, for example, solves the problem of decentralization and distrust through blockchain technology, realizes global circulation, and is sought after all over the world. In other words, virtual currency can only be closed in the network circulation, and digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency, bitcoin is illegalthe digital currency researched and issued by the central bank is indexed RMB, which belongs to legal encrypted digital currency from the perspective of national schemes, and it is not only a payment tool but also a currency itself< the purpose of digital currency issued by the central bank is to replace physical cash, rece the cost of traditional paper currency issuance and circulation, and improve the convenience and transparency of economic transactions
