National Institute of cryptocurrency

1. Yao Qian, head of the preparatory group of the digital currency Research Institute of the central bank, said that the digital currency issued by the central bank is mainly to replace physical cash, rece the cost of issuance and circulation of traditional paper money, and improve the convenience and transparency of economic transactions
Huang Zhen, director of the Institute of financial law of Central University of Finance and economics, said that digital currency mainly refers to the form of currency and will not cause currency shrinkage. The issuing scale of money is still controlled by the central bank, while the issue of paper money or digital money is just a change of form< In addition, Huang Zhen mentioned that the issue of digital currency is still in the stage of discussion, which is an innovative mechanism of currency value symbol, and many problems are still under study. However, in practice, people are more and more inclined to use e-banking and e-payment rather than carrying notes. Under this trend, the number of banknotes in circulation in the future may decrease
the central bank's issuing of digital currency is still inspired by encrypted digital currencies such as bitcoin and lettercoin, and so is the token of European crowdfunding platform. The digital currency issued by the central bank has monetary attributes, while the token of European crowdfunding platform can only be a kind of asset certificate, a niche proct.

Digital cryptocurrency is a kind of currency that is not issued by legal tender institutions and controlled by the central bank. It is based on the open source code of a group of equations calculated by computers all over the world, and is generated by a large number of calculation processing of computer graphics card and CPU. It uses the design of cryptography to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation

1. definition of digital currency:

   digital currency is abbreviated as digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital currency" in English and the alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy< br />

   

3.

The digital currency developed by the central bank has such a definition: encrypted digital string representing specific amount guaranteed and signed by the central bank . In a broad sense, digital currency includes a wide range of aspects, including electronic currency, virtual currency and legal digital currency. But strictly speaking, the digital currency developed by the central bank refers to legal digital currency

electronic currency is the digitalization of legal tender, including our common bank cards, Internet banking, electronic cash, Alipay and so on. No matter what the form of these electronic money is and through which institutions it circulates, its original source is the legal money issued by the central bank

In contrast, virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. For example, Tencent Q coin and other game coins, such virtual currency is mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment; Bitcoin, for example, solves the problem of decentralization and distrust through blockchain technology, realizes global circulation, and is sought after all over the world. In other words, virtual currency can only be closed in the network circulation, and digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency, bitcoin is illegal

the digital currency researched and issued by the central bank is indexed RMB, which belongs to legal encrypted digital currency from the perspective of national schemes, and it is not only a payment tool but also a currency itself< the purpose of digital currency issued by the central bank is to replace physical cash, rece the cost of traditional paper currency issuance and circulation, and improve the convenience and transparency of economic transactions

hope to adopt

4. The central bank does not recognize digital currency
on September 4, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions issued the notice on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, and the ICO trading platform was completely suspended. After September 14, the relevant token platforms successively removed procts or stopped trading. After the news came out, digital currency was boiling

some people can't help asking: with the collapse of ICO and the closure of bitcoin platform, is digital currency over? Here the central bank gives the answer. The central bank reports that around the Spring Festival this year, the block chain based digital bill trading platform promoted by the central bank has been tested successfully, and the digital currency Research Institute of the central bank will also be officially listed. China's sovereign digital currency will accelerate its arrival. Then some people will question whether China will proce its own bitcoin? Here, let's talk about what is digital currency:

digital currency

digital currency is different from virtual currency, not bitcoin or q-coin! That is to say, it is different from virtual currencies such as bitcoin and Ethernet

virtual currency can only be closed in circulation on the network, just like Tencent's q-coin and Dashen's coin on the platform of Dashen software collaborative instry ecological chain. They can only be used for one use of their own procts. Digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency, bitcoin is illegal digital currency. As for legal digital currency, there is no unified international definition. Yao Qian, deputy director of the science and Technology Department of the people's Bank of China and head of the preparatory group of the digital currency Research Institute, believes that the digital currency researched and issued by the people's Bank of China is indexed RMB. From the perspective of national schemes, it belongs to legal encrypted digital currency, which is not only a payment tool but also a currency. Correspondingly, virtual currency is also called illegal fixed digital currency. Li Lihui, head of the blockchain working group of China Internet Finance Association, once said that digital currency must have legal status, national sovereignty endorsement, and clear responsibility subject of issuance. Virtual currencies represented by bitcoin and ethereal currency have no country, no sovereign endorsement, no qualified issuers, and no national credit support. These are not digital currencies.

5. Digital currency
unlike virtual currency, digital currency is neither bitcoin nor q-coin! That is to say, it is different from virtual currencies such as bitcoin and Ethernet
virtual currency can only be closed in circulation on the network, just like Tencent's q-coin and Huixin cloud software collaborative instry ecological chain platform, they can only be used for their own procts. Digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency, bitcoin is illegal digital currency. As for legal digital currency, there is no unified international definition. Yao Qian, deputy director of the science and Technology Department of the people's Bank of China and head of the preparatory group of the digital currency Research Institute, believes that the digital currency researched and issued by the people's Bank of China is indexed RMB.

Virtual currencies represented by bitcoin and ethereal currency have no country, no sovereign endorsement, no qualified issuers, and no national credit support. These are not digital currencies
digital money is not equivalent to virtual currency
since digital money can be used for commodity trading, is Alipay and WeChat payment a kind of digital currency?
Alipay, WeChat payment and mobile phone banks are all electronic money, not digital money. These are all payment methods based on electronic accounts, which are in essence just a process of informatization of legal currency, not digital currency in a strict sense. For example, the amount of Alipay or WeChat transactions is essentially banknotes on bank accounts, but it is electronic form. The "100 yuan" displayed on the mobile phone will correspond to the real 100 yuan in the bank.

6. It is up to the people's Bank of China to study the feasibility of issuing our national digital currency. Judging from the current development direction, it will not be far away.

7. The state has not set up a digital cryptocurrency Research Institute, but the state is paying attention to digital cryptocurrency. The central bank has set up a digital currency research and development department and plans to launch its own digital currency. As for the members, they have not yet been announced
however, the digital currency planned by the central bank is different from bitcoin, Ruitai currency and vitality currency.
