What are the digital currencies in the global public chain

1.

blockchain includes public blockchain, joint (instry) blockchain and private blockchain. Public chain point-to-point e-cash system: bitcoin, smart contract and decentralized application platform: Ethereum

blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies

blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin. In essence, it is a decentralized database. At the same time, as the underlying technology of bitcoin, it is a series of data blocks generated by using cryptographic methods. Each data block contains a batch of bitcoin network transaction information, Used to verify the validity of its information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block

extended data

according to the different degree of blockchain network centralization, three kinds of blockchains under different application scenarios are differentiated:

1. The blockchain with the whole network open and without user authorization mechanism is called public chain

2. The authorized nodes are allowed to join the network, and the information can be viewed according to the authority. It is often used in the inter agency blockchain, which is called alliance chain or instry chain

3. All the nodes in the network are in the hands of one organization, which is called private chain

alliance chain and private chain are also called licensing chain, and public chain is called non licensing chain

blockchain features

1, decentralization. Blockchain technology does not rely on additional third-party management institutions or hardware facilities, and there is no central control. In addition to the self-contained blockchain itself, each node realizes information self verification, transmission and management through distributed accounting and storage. Decentralization is the most prominent and essential feature of blockchain

2. Openness. Blockchain technology is based on open source. In addition to the private information of all parties involved in the transaction is encrypted, the data of blockchain is open to everyone. Anyone can query blockchain data and develop related applications through the open interface, so the information of the whole system is highly transparent

3. Independence. Based on consensus specifications and Protocols (similar to various mathematical algorithms such as hash algorithm used by bitcoin), the whole blockchain system does not rely on other third parties, and all nodes can automatically and safely verify and exchange data in the system without any human intervention

4. Safety. As long as 51% of all data nodes cannot be controlled, the network data cannot be arbitrarily manipulated and modified, which makes the blockchain itself relatively safe and avoids subjective and artificial data changes

5. Anonymity. Unless there are legal requirements, technically speaking, the identity information of each block node does not need to be disclosed or verified, and the information can be transferred anonymously

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 informationized

such 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

1. Litecoin is similar to bitcoin, which is also an encrypted digital currency, and its price has risen sharply recently. It is a P2P open source digital currency, which can be regarded as a branch of bitcoin. However, although lightcoin is based on bitcoin protocol, it does not require very high computing power. It can also be mined using ordinary computers. Lightcoin's algorithm comes from the algorithm designed by Dr Colin Percival for tarsnap secure online backup service (backup for Linux and other open source operating systems)
2. Namecoin
namecoin is also based on bitcoin, which is another branch of open source. Namecoin is a distributed DNS protocol -- generally speaking, it can transform the website name (such as ifeng. Com) that can be understood by human into the address that can be understood by machine.

7. Digital currency is an unregulated and digital currency, which is usually issued and managed by developers and accepted and used by members of a specific virtual community.

However, because it is accepted by the public, it can be used as a means of payment, or it can be transferred, stored or traded in electronic form
