Is it easy to trade digital currency

1. Generally, the ranking is not reliable for two reasons:

1. Trading volume. Bitwise and Bti reports show that most of the trading volume of the head exchanges is water injection or "washing volume". Domestic exchanges are more serious, and even some exchanges have washing volume as high as 90%. Specifically, I don't guide public opinion and have no interests. You can search by yourself according to the above keywords. There are a lot of news< 2. Advertising strategy of ranking platform. At first glance, you may feel fair and beautiful, but where you don't easily pay attention, the operation of these platforms is very sneaky. For example, if you look at the second page of some ranking platforms (because you only pay attention to the first page, and the second page will not turn), all kinds of ghosts and ghosts are on it, and the weak trading volume is also on it. It's a shop bully. So we still have to clean our eyes

how to choose? Move back the priority of trading volume in your mind, and see what negative comments the exchange has, what controversial currencies are on it, and what functions you want to try. Just sort them out by yourself.

2. After experiencing the peak at the end of 2017, digital currency has experienced a Waterloo like decline, making the currency market into a bear market. After two years of slow decline, the market has yet to stop falling. So it's still a good time to short bitcoin. Investors can now choose the bitnet exchange as the first choice to short bitcoin.

3. Digital currency can be considered as a virtual currency based on node network and digital encryption algorithm
the core characteristics of digital currency are mainly reflected in three aspects:
firstly, e to some open algorithms, digital currency has no issuing subject, so no one or organization can control its issuing
because the number of algorithm solutions is determined, the total amount of digital currency is fixed, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of inflation caused by the overuse of virtual currency
③ as the transaction process needs the approval of each node in the network, the transaction process of digital currency is safe enough
at the same time, digital currency is also a kind of venture capital. Some people can make profits in this market, while others can make losses in this market. To make money from digital currency investment, one is mining, the other is trading through the platform. Digital currency has price fluctuations, which is theoretically investable

warm tips: the above explanations are for reference only, and do not represent any suggestions. Before investing, it is suggested that you first understand the risks existing in the project, and understand the investors, investment institutions, chain activity and other information of the project, rather than blindly investing or mistakenly entering the capital market. Investment is risky, so we should be cautious when entering the market

If you want to participate in the transaction of digital currency, you must understand the digital currency ecosystem

It can be said that digital currency exchange is the most important part of the whole instry. Digital currency exchange provides investors and traders with the capital channel to buy and sell digital currency. At the same time, the trading activities of the exchange determine the price of many digital assets

according to coinmarketcap, the capital flow of digital currency exchanges is huge, with the average daily trading volume of the top five exchanges exceeding US $3 billion

there are hundreds of digital currency exchanges around the world, some of which operate globally in mainstream markets, while some focus on niche markets

for example, AAX is committed to providing services for digital currency traders and institutional investors, integrating the digital currency world with the global economy, and providing unparalleled first-class technical capabilities using the matchmaking engine supported by lseg technology

many substitutes have successfully occupied a certain market share shortly after their launch. What digital currency exchanges have in common is that they together provide the development soil for these alternative currencies

digital currency is no longer limited to bitcoin. Other digital currency assets, such as eth, XRP, BCH, usdt, LTC, EOS, xtz, etc., have a place in the portfolio and diversification strategies of many digital currency dealers

At present, there are many similarities between digital currency trading and foreign exchange trading, because the basic principles, tools, indicators and strategies used in foreign exchange are also applicable to digital currency trading. AAX College's digital currency trading section discusses these topics in depth and extensively

blockchain protocol

blockchain is the underlying technology that makes digital currency possible. There are many kinds of blockchain protocols, and the technical characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of each protocol are slightly different

for example, bitcoin blockchain relies on mining and pow (proof of work) mechanism to process transactions, while another blockchain may use dpos (proof of entrustment) mechanism instead of mining. In addition to bitcoin blockchain, other noteworthy protocols include eth, hyperledger, EOS, XLM, Iost, kin, TRX and stem. Among these blockchain agreements, ETH (Ethereum) is commendable in promoting the rapid innovation of the entire digital currency ecosystem

Ethereum platform was created by vitalik buterin, which indicates that developers can make better use of the resources of the platform by using their own programming language solidity. Ethereum has made blockchain technology all the rage, creating a new world of innovative decentralized applications on the basis of smart contracts and custom tokens. At present, most of the substitutes are based on Ethereum's erc20 standard

the district centered financial movement, or defi for short, is also basically based on the Ethereum blockchain agreement

financial services

for every service in traditional finance, Ethereum based defi applications have corresponding alternative versions for everyone to access. The defi app allows users to create stable currencies, lend money and earn interest, send and receive payments, get loans, trade, take positions in the forecast market, enter the real estate sector, and so on. Smart contracts are the key to making decentralized services possible. Once certain conditions are met, the smart contract will automatically perform the pre agreed activities

at the same time, traditional finance also began to provide new customized services for the field of digital currency. At present, some fund managers provide investors with the option of adding digital currency into their portfolios, the trustee provides security services for investors who invest a lot of money in digital currency, and many analysts in mainstream media (such as Bloomberg) also have a strong interest in digital currency

digital currency hardware

for those who like to build their own security measures, the huge digital currency hardware market can provide professional traders and long-term holders with the tools they need. Trezor and ledger are the most famous hardware wallets. They essentially provide the same value for digital currency traders, that is, a more secure way to store digital currency

of course, digital currencies stored in hardware wallets cannot be traded in the market. Therefore, digital currency traders usually allocate funds between the hardware wallet and the exchange according to a certain ratio according to their own trading style preference

There are so many activities of

data aggregators and blockchain analysis

cross blockchain, which proces a large amount of data, and also spawns the emergence of sub instries, namely data aggregators and blockchain analysis instries. Companies such as coinmarketcap are the preferred source for quick inspection of digital currency and exchange data. They collect statistics on trading volume, liquidity, market value, price trend, circulation and the whole instry, such as the total amount of money, the number of markets, the market value of the instry and the proportion of BTC market value

people who are more interested in blockchain analysis can find the required data in websites like blocktivity. Here, you can view the relevant data of each indivial blockchain agreement, including the number of operations in the last 24 hours, the average number of operations in the last 7 days, the market value and Cui index, that is, the remaining available capacity after the actual usage of the current blockchain agreement. All in all, these websites can provide valuable insights for the blockchain instry

for example, the average number of operations of Ethereum in the past seven days was 667000, with Cui slightly higher than 50%, while the average number of operations of EOS in the same time range was 63 million, with Cui slightly lower than 50%. Technically, the performance of EOS protocol is more powerful than that of Ethereum. However, this can not prevent Ethereum from occupying 70% of the total market value of the most mainstream currencies

digital currency media and conferences

in today's world, almost everyone is the publisher of content. Without we media instry, such a large-scale instry will no longer exist. Digital currency has given birth to a wide range of media patterns, covering news media, KOL and related conferences for currency, public chain and code

digital currency head media include coindesk, cointegration, bitcoin magazine, decrypt, CCN, bitcoinist, newsbtc, etc. Some KOLs are also well-known, sometimes even more popular than the news media

YouTube celebrities, such as datadash, dollar villante, altcoin buzz, Ivan on tech and boxmining, have subscribers from 200K to 300K. In the field of digital currency trading, the top stars of cryptotwitter include venture coinist, cryptocred and cryptodon alt, with 211k, 140k and 120K fans respectively

if you want to have face-to-face communication with companies and people, digital currency and blockchain meetings should not be missed. Every year, there are many conferences around the world for investors, blockchain experts, start-ups, institutional financing, currency or agreement related communities. In 2019 alone, we sponsored and participated in blockchain live in London, the capital summit hosted by coinmarketcap in Singapore and the world mobile conference in Shanghai. We have had exciting meetings with other digital currency companies and major financial institutions, and established contacts with regulators from different jurisdictions

digital currency supervision

with the continuous growth of the market and audience of digital currency instry, in most cases, financial regulators are still developing relevant frameworks to protect investors and consumers. Regulators may take a very different approach, which is a challenge for companies operating across multiple jurisdictions

ring the ICO boom in 2017 and 2018, many projects were launched before the regulatory framework was established, while some projects did not meet the criteria of the jurisdiction and were suspended ring the fund-raising process. All this comes from how to classify digital assets, and the understanding of classification is constantly changing. At present, we divide digital assets into security token and practical token

in the past year, with the proposal of Libra, the promotion of supervision is also increasing. The central bank is also actively exploring the significance of blockchain technology to its policies and economic activities, and constantly publishing reports

the rapid development of digital money ecosystem

these components of digital money ecosystem are growing and developing in an orderly way, contributing to the increasingly sound instry. From the minority interest in 2009 to the active digital asset economy, digital currency has come a long way

However, in order to achieve the development and wide participation of the instry, a strong ecosystem is not enough. We need a better link between digital money and global finance. The better the combination of digital currency and traditional finance, the easier it will be for newcomers to understand the digital currency ecosystem

for every novice, as exchanges, financial services, media and regulators graally adapt to the expectations of mainstream consumers, the digital currency instry will further develop, which may improve investment outcomes

5. Digital currency transaction is not safe, investment should be cautious.

6.

The contract transaction of digital currency is not safe. There are still many loopholes in the digital currency trading platform, for example, the most common are the following six kinds:

1. Denial of service attack

denial of service attack is the most important attack against the digital currency trading platform at present. Through denial of service attack, the attacker makes the trading platform unable to access normally, Because users can not accurately distinguish the degree of attack, it often causes panic asset transfer, which brings some loss

2. Phishing incident

even the best technical measures at present can not make the digital currency trading platform avoid phishing attacks. Some hackers and criminals can confuse digital currency investors by means of fake domain names or fake pages, while ordinary investors can't identify the authenticity, so it's easy to cause asset losses

Many digital currency trading platforms use a single private key to protect the hot wallet. If hackers can access a single private key, they can crack the hot wallet related to the private key. For example, in the attack on yapizon of Seoul stock exchange in 2017, the attackers stole hot wallets from the trading platform twice in a year, resulting in a total loss of nearly 50% of the assets of the trading platform and eventually leading to the bankruptcy of the trading platform

Fourth, e to the lack of perfect risk isolation measures, or ineffective supervision on the rights of employees, some employees who have the operation rights of the platform use internal trust to seek unjust wealth for themselves. For example, in 2016, the event of employees stealing bitcoin on shapeshift caused a total loss of US $230000 to the trading platform by stealing and reselling sensitive information to others

Fifth, the software vulnerability of digital currency trading platform includes single sign on vulnerability, OAuth protocol vulnerability and so on. At present, all countries have laws requiring banks or other financial institutions to implement information security measures to protect customers' deposits. However, e to the fact that the blockchain field is still in its infancy, there is a lack of such specifications for encrypting digital assets. Therefore, it is not accidental that many trading platforms have a large number of loopholes in the absence of security constraints

6. Transaction malleability the technical supporters of blockchain often think that blockchain transactions are highly secure because they are recorded on records that are said to be unchangeable, but each transaction needs to have a corresponding signature, and the records can be forged temporarily before the final confirmation of the transaction

extended data:

rules of contract transaction

1. Transaction time

contract transaction is 7 * 24 hours transaction, which will be interrupted only ring the settlement or delivery period of 16:00 (UTC + 8) every Friday. In the last 10 minutes before delivery, the contract can only be closed, not opened

Transaction types are divided into two types, opening and closing. Opening and closing positions are divided into two directions: buying and selling:

buying open long (bullish) refers to buying a certain number of contracts when users are bullish and bullish on the index. Carry out "buy open more" operation, match success will increase long position

selling pingo (multi order closing) refers to the selling contract that the user makes up for when he is no longer bullish on the future index, offsets with the current buying contract and exits the market. Carry on "sell flat much" operation, match after success, will rece long position

short selling (bearish) refers to the new sale of a certain number of certain contracts when the user is short or bearish on the index. Carry out the operation of "sell short" and increase the short position after successful matching

buy close (short single close) refers to the buy contract that the user will not be bearish on the future index market and make up for, offset with the current sell contract and exit the market. Carry out "buy short" operation, after matching successfully, short position will be reced

3. Order method

limit order: the user needs to specify the price and quantity of the order. Limit order can be used for opening and closing positions

order at opposite price: if you choose to order at opposite price, you can only enter the order quantity, not the order price. The system will read the latest competitor price at the moment of receiving the entrustment (if the user buys, the competitor price is the selling price of 1); If it is a sell, then the counter price is buy 1 price). Issue a price limit order for this counter price

4. Position

the user owns the position after opening and trading, and the positions in the same direction of the same contract will be merged. In a contract account, there can only be 6 positions at most, that is, multiple positions of current week contract, short positions of current week contract, multiple positions of next week contract, short positions of next week contract, multiple positions of quarterly contract and short positions of quarterly contract

5. Order restriction

the platform will restrict the number of single user's positions in a certain period of contract and the number of single open / close positions, so as to prevent users from manipulating the market

when the number of positions or entrustments of users is too large, the platform has the right to require users to take risk control measures, including but not limited to cancellation of orders, closing positions, etc. The platform has the right to adopt measures including but not limited to limiting the total number of positions, limiting the total number of consignments, limiting the opening of positions, withdrawing orders, forcibly closing positions, etc. for risk control

7. Look at the indivial requirements for the accuracy of quantification. What comes out of big data analysis is that the success rate must be higher. Digital currency is still very little to quantify, now it seems that jiuzhuang bcbot is doing quantification. For reference, in a bear market, high-frequency trading will surely be more reliable.

8. Digital currency trading, stock trading and futures are all of the same type of trading, so you should first understand the market situation and learn more financial knowledge before you can enter the market. Those who are deep in the financial market should be cautious.

9. Eulo modifies the underlying network transmission protocol, one is to make the information transmission confirmation of ordinary network faster, the other is to make the transmission of cross-border network break through some restrictions and solve the problem of cross-border payment in complex network environment. In this way, the transaction cycle can be greatly reced, and the whole transaction process is simpler and faster.
