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
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
"the legal currency of our country is RMB." In the risk warning, the monetary Bureau of the people's Bank of China once again stressed that RMB is uniformly printed and issued by the people's Bank of China
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 currency has the main characteristics of network packet. This kind of data packet is composed of data code and identification code. The data code is the content we need to transmit, while the identification code indicates where the data packet comes from and goes
based on the characteristics of digital money, the direct benefit of digital money to the central bank is not only to save the cost of paper money issuance, circulation and settlement, but also to enhance the central bank's ability to control funds.
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 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

this kind of digital currency can carry on the ordinary on-line mobile payment, also may carry on the sweep code payment, is similar to the Alipay and WeChat's using method, is very convenient.
this new type of legal digital currency is actually much more convenient than the existing means of mobile payment for three reasons:
first, legal digital currency does not need bank transfer and withdrawal
now we need to use Alipay and WeChat to bind the bank cards on Alipay and WeChat first, then transfer the money in the bank card to Alipay and WeChat, which is very troublesome. p>
but legal digital currency itself is stored in the bank card account, so there is no need to transfer in and withdraw the operation, you can directly withdraw the digital currency on the ATM, or you can directly use the app to pay, which is very convenient
