this is the first practical application of the central bank's digital currency since the R & D news, which is a historical moment worth remembering
let's review the development of DCEP:
in 2014, the central bank set up a special research group on legal digital currency
in 2016, it set up a digital currency Research Institute on the basis of the original group
in June 2018, it set up Shenzhen Financial Technology Co., Ltd.
in August 2019, the central government issued a document to carry out digital currency research and mobile payment pilot in Shenzhen
on October 29, 2019, At the "2019 Bund financial summit", Huang Qifan, vice president of China Center for international economic exchange, said: "the digital currency DCEP launched by the Central Bank of China is a new crypto electronic currency system based on blockchain technology." This is the debut of DCEP
On April 3, 2020, in the "national teleconference on money, gold, silver and security work", the central bank said that it would "unswervingly promote the research and development of legal digital currency" On April 10, Zhou Xuedong, director of the general office of the people's Bank of China, pointed out at the "first quarter financial statistics press conference" that "with regard to digital currency, the people's Bank of China is advancing in an orderly manner according to the original plan."on April 14, the central bank's digital currency DCEP took the lead in the internal test of ABC
on April 16, Xiangcheng District of Suzhou realized the implementation of the first application scenario of central bank's digital currency DCEP, using "digital wallet" as the payment channel and issuing it in the form of transportation subsidies
judging from various actions, the central bank's plan for digital currency is well prepared and in an orderly and continuous progress
why DCEP
from the national level, it is well known that the macroeconomic regulation and control means of sovereign countries are mainly through monetary policy and fiscal policy, just like the current global lack of liquidity e to the epidemic, China's economy is stimulated by interest rate rection and government spending, but the funds are transmitted layer by layer, and there are few funds really used for the target range
if we use the central bank's digital currency system, we can analyze and track a large number of transactions, and use the most direct and efficient means to put funds where they need, so as to release liquidity and benefit the people
from the international level,
the use of blockchain technology can realize the review of national credit and increase the credit of the country's monetary system. With the increase of GNP, credit must also increase, and the process of RMB internationalization will be more rapid
this is very simple to understand. Blockchain technology makes it impossible for asset certificates to be forged and makes credit verifiable, which is naturally concive to RMB internationalization
Last year, the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) issued a report that up to now, nearly 70% of the central banks are studying the digital currency of the central bank, which also shows that the digital wave is the general trend. At present, the central bank's digital currency DCEP is likely to be used on a large scale ahead of other countries in the world, and the era of digital currency is comingthe era of digital economy is getting closer and closer
today's era is a digital era. With the comprehensive rise of technological innovation and digital economy, science and technology has changed from the initial role of a tool to the backbone of financial reform. The continuous collision and integration of digital five complete genes (whole airspace, whole process, whole scene, full analysis, and full value) and financial instry not only changes the settlement and settlement methods and sovereign currency issuance mechanism among indivials, enterprises, and countries, but also greatly improves the operation efficiency of instrial chain, and brings the development of the whole economic society and human progress
if blockchain technology will "genetically transform" all walks of life, then digital currency will "genetically transform" the financial instry. Looking forward to the future, the in-depth integration and transformation of traditional instries by blockchain, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, Internet of things and other technologies will lead us into a new era of digital economy
in short, the era of digital economy is getting closer and closer to us
the implementation of the central bank's digital currency is bound to bring disruptive changes to the existing financial market and breed huge wealth opportunities. The future has come, the wind has come, keep up with the pace of the instry, accurately grasp the future trend, and quickly seize the blue ocean of wealth business
Suzhou has issued 20 million yuan of digital RMB consumption red envelopes. In fact, it is not only Suzhou. Hangzhou, Shenyang and other cities have also issued digital red envelopes early to stimulate residents' consumption. The usage of this red envelope is also very simple. This consumption coupon is usually grabbed on Alipay platform, and after grabbing the Alipay consumer coupon, people can consume in any physical store. As long as a province has launched a consumer coupon, basically all the physical stores can use coupons, including the vegetable market, supermarkets and convenience stores and restaurants. , these consumer coupons are not large enough. Therefore, it is generally used for daily consumption. With the consumption voucher, the consumption demand of the public will also be greatly increased. many people may not want to buy things originally, but because the consumption voucher can be much cheaper, they will spend extra money{ RRRRR}
when you are using consumer coupons, must first click on the Alipay card pack, find the coupons you want to use, and then click on the consumption coupon to select ". To use & quot;, Then let the merchant scan your payment code, so that you can correctly use the coupon the coupons must be used within the specified time, otherwise they will be expired. Generally, the validity period of coupons issued once a month is one month, and that of coupons issued once a week is one week, so we must pay attention to the validity period
Recently, there is a news that the pilot of digital RMB in Suzhou has started. This news is very sensational and influential. It has attracted a lot of people's attention, and many people have commented on it. In this regard, I have three main views:
first of all, I think the digital RMB pilot project in Suzhou is more advanced we really should carry out the digital RMB pilot, because this pilot is more previous, and it can also enable our RMB to be used in more fields, and will not be eliminated. Many places have carried out RMB digitization, and it has run well. This digitization of RMB will enable us to better link up the international track and enhance our influence{ RRRRR}
in a word, I think the RMB pilot in Suzhou is better, which can make us better use of RMB
