Current political hot spots of digital currency
1. The concept range is different. bitcoin is a kind of digital currency, and the concept of digital currency covers bitcoin
However, some digital currencies have independent issuers The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total quantity of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to 21 milliondigital currency is abbreviated as digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital currency" in English. It is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy. Bitcoin is a digital currency
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 currencies, such as bitcoin, lettercoin and ppcoin, are electronic currencies created, issued and circulated by means of 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

illegal digital currency
in recent years, "virtual currency" represented by bitcoin, Ethernet currency and Leyte currency has been traded centrally on some Internet platforms. With the help of financial technology, the price of these "currencies" has graally spread to investment, financing and other financial fields, which has aroused wide attention from all walks of life
not long ago, the people's Bank of China and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, which clearly regulated the relevant behaviors. Experts pointed out that "virtual currency" is not legal tender (legal currency) issued by monetary authorities, but a specific virtual commodity in essence
therefore, it is undoubtedly a great legal and economic risk to think that "virtual currency" has or will have the nature of legal tender and to carry out speculation, network fund-raising, lending and financing
1. Enjin (enj)
in the near future, the game instry is the instry most likely to adopt blockchain on a large scale. Enjin coin is the cryptocurrency of virtual goods created by Enjin. Enjin is the "largest online gaming community platform" with more than 250000 gaming communities and 18.7 million registered gamers
Cardano (ADA)compared with Ethereum, EOS and Tron, Cardano is the third generation of decentralized app (DAPP) and smart contract platform. Cardano's design philosophy has the following points:
scalability: with the growth of users, the transaction processing speed is not affected or even faster, such as P2P protocol
interoperability: in the future, there will be countless devices connected to each other, instead of only connecting and forwarding through routers. All kinds of devices can communicate directly through standard general protocol
Sustainability: like bitcoin, Cardano project will not be controlled and influenced by a certain company or organization, which is a safe, decentralized and sustainable development platform
With the popularity of sto (security token offers), Nash also plays an important role. Nash is a kind of registered security token. In the past, Nash participated in and led the development of many projectsNash exchange is a decentralized exchange. If you hold nex token, you can calculate the dividend here
4. Basic attention token (BAT)
bat mainly solves the problem of advertising:
user information is abused: large companies such as Google and Facebook track and use user information and behavior, and sell without the knowledge of users
the effect of advertising is restrained: middlemen earn most of the fees, a large number of advertisements are blocked by users using software, and advertisements are fake
in the past six to 12 months, the number of publishers using the brand browser (Note: the brand browser supports bat token) has grown rapidly, and almost no blockchain ecosystem has grown so fast
5, chainlink (link)
chainlink mainly solves the problem that each blockchain has and the smart contract cannot obtain external data. In order to introce external data into the blockchain, the concept of Oracle is proposed in smart contract
companies including Google are supporting the development of chainlink. Here is a list of chainlink partners
one of the main problems of chainlink is similar to Ethereum. The development team has reserved 650 million link tokens, while only 350 million are in circulation at present
Ethereum (ETH)Ethereum has long occupied the second place in the top 100 cryptocurrencies. Its ecology is so big that we can't call it altcoin now. To tell you the truth, I'm not optimistic about Ethereum in the long run, but it will flourish in the short run
