The current formal digital currency
Digital money is legal
digital currency itself is legal in China. Digital currency is defined as Internet goods in China, but the relevant supervision is still blank, and digital currency is still in the gray area in China. Well known digital currencies include bitcoin, Leyte coin, Ruitai coin, thousand gold card, dog coin, etc
however, there are also some non developers who use the cover of digital currency to carry out pyramid schemes, such as the Vicat scheme, treasure scheme, Porter scheme and so on

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
China does not issue digital currency, and all the existing digital currencies are illegal
the central bank pointed out that no legal digital currency has been issued, and no institutions and enterprises have been authorized to issue legal digital currency. At present, the so-called "digital currency" in the market is not legal digital currency
virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. This kind of virtual currency is mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment. Digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency

extended information:
with the soaring price of virtual currency represented by bitcoin, digital currency and the blockchain technology behind it have attracted great attention of the global financial community. In fact, legal digital currency has not yet been issued in China. Recently, the official website of the monetary Bureau of the people's Bank of China (PBOC) released the risk warning on issuing or promoting digital currency in the name of the people's Bank of China
in 2013, the central bank, together with five ministries and commissions, issued the notice on prevention of bitcoin risks, which clearly defined non legal digital currencies such as bitcoin as virtual commodities, which do not exist in the form of currency and legal currency
At the same time, digital money is different from electronic payment. In the actual use experience, digital money and electronic payment may feel similar, but they are still quite different in essence. Before digital currency, the financial instry has been highly informationizedsuch as Internet banking, WeChat, Alipay and other payment electronic popularization graally, physical cash accounts for only a very small part of all circulating currencies. In spite of this, because the money used in the transaction comes from the bank account, it actually corresponds to the banknotes
currently, digital currency in the market involves multi-level marketing
digital currency is a new technology that can improve the efficiency of transaction, but it is targeted by lawless elements to carry out pyramid selling and fraud in its name
the official website of the monetary Bureau of the people's Bank of China issued the risk warning on issuing or promoting digital currency in the name of the people's Bank of China. The central bank pointed out that recently, indivial enterprises falsely used the name of our bank to label relevant digital procts as "authorized issuance by the people's Bank of China", or falsely claimed that the digital currency promotion team of the central bank issued, in an attempt to deceive the public and take the opportunity to make huge profits
in the risk warning, the central bank stressed that the bank has not issued legal digital currency, nor authorized any institutions and enterprises to issue legal digital currency, and there is no promotion team. At present, the so-called "digital currency" in the market is not legal digital currency
at the same time, the so-called "digital currency" launched by some institutions and enterprises and the so-called promotion of the central bank's issuance of digital currency may involve pyramid selling and fraud. The general public should raise their risk awareness, invest rationally and prudently, and prevent the interests from being damaged

digital gold currency is a kind of physical currency, and its deposit is measured in gold rather than legal currency. Therefore, the purchasing power fluctuation of digital gold currency is related to the gold price. If the price of gold goes up, it becomes more valuable. If the price of gold goes down, it loses value. Since there is no specific financial regulation to regulate digital gold money suppliers, they operate in a self regulatory manner. Digital gold money suppliers are not banks, so banking regulations are not applicable. However, the global digital currency Association, founded in 2002, is a non-profit association of online currency operators, convertors, merchants and users. This association supervises the users' reports and ratings the reputation of the convertor. The rating operation is confirmed by the users' reports
