on October 13, the International Monetary Fund predicted that global GDP would shrink by 4.4% in 2020, up 0.8 percentage points from the forecast in June. This year, China remains the only major economy the IMF expects to achieve positive growth< Tobias Adrian, head of the IMF's monetary and capital markets department, said in an exclusive interview with China first finance and economics reporter recently that China's economic recovery is leading the world, while the pilot of the central bank's digital currency (DCEP) is leading the world. He believes that at present DCEP is still focusing on M0 (cash in circulation), which has little impact on banks. In the early stage, DCEP will pay more attention to the application in China. In the future, as more countries begin to pilot central bank digital currency (CBDC), the cross-border use and convertibility of CBDC will be concerned
recently, the promotion of global central banks' digital currency is accelerating. Some mainstream central banks have changed their conservative attitude in their early years and accelerated the research on CBDC. China has taken the lead in carrying out relevant pilot projects. At 8:00 on October 11, Shenzhen "Lixiang Luohu digital RMB red envelope" booking ended, and the system successfully completed the pilot booking registration, which is an important step in the development process of digital RMB
Adrian said: "China's digital currency pilot is leading the world, and the IMF is closely following the pilot situation of China's digital currency in some urban areas." From the perspective of monetary statistics, the central bank's digital currency belongs to the category of M0, that is, cash, not M1 or m2. Therefore, he does not think it is necessary to worry about the impact on banks in the initial stage.

when the system loss is generated, it is shared equally by the profit-making customers after the settlement. Especially when the big market occurs, the sharp drop or sharp rise of the price will cause the customers to burst their positions in a large area, forming a huge system loss, and the loss will be shared equally by the profit-making customers. The mechanism of position margin + floating margin is adopted, A customer's position needs a fixed margin. When the floating margin reaches the warning line, the system will remind the customer to add margin. Otherwise, when the margin is not enough to hold so many positions, the system will forcibly level off the excess positions to control the risk of the customer. This mechanism strictly controls the leverage, and the leverage of futures can reach 10 times at most, The size of the position is determined by the customer's capital. Generally, a slightly larger fluctuation will not cause the customer to burst the position, so that the profit customers will not be allowed to share the system loss. Then the customer's profit capital can be fully recorded<
circuit breaker price mechanism:
the exclusive digital currency circuit breaker mechanism is provided. When the price fluctuates sharply in a short time, such as 10% within a few minutes, the circuit breaker mechanism will be triggered. If the price exceeds the circuit breaker price within one minute, the Commission will stop reporting.

At this time, the client can continue to commission, But still can not exceed the current price. In this way, the fairness of the trading environment is prevented from being affected by human malicious entrustment, and the price manipulation is also avoided
