The relationship between digital currency and bitcoin of central

1.

1. The concept range is different. bitcoin is a kind of digital currency, and the concept of digital currency covers bitcoin

However, some digital currencies have independent issuers

The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total quantity of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to 21 million

digital currency is abbreviated as digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital currency" in English. It is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy. Bitcoin is a digital currency

digital currency is different from the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it can be used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games. The early digital currency (digital gold currency) is a form of electronic currency named after the weight of gold

today's digital currencies, such as bitcoin, lettercoin and ppcoin, are electronic currencies created, issued and circulated by means of check sum cryptography. It is characterized by the use of P2P peer-to-peer network technology to issue, manage and circulate currency. In theory, it avoids bureaucratic examination and approval, so that everyone has the right to issue currency

illegal digital currency

in recent years, "virtual currency" represented by bitcoin, Ethernet currency and Leyte currency has been traded centrally on some Internet platforms. With the help of financial technology, the price of these "currencies" has graally spread to investment, financing and other financial fields, which has aroused wide attention from all walks of life

not long ago, the people's Bank of China and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, which clearly regulated the relevant behaviors. Experts pointed out that "virtual currency" is not legal tender (legal currency) issued by monetary authorities, but a specific virtual commodity in essence

therefore, it is undoubtedly a great legal and economic risk to think that "virtual currency" has or will have the nature of legal tender and to carry out speculation, network fund-raising, lending and financing

2. On January 5, the pilot use of digital RMB in Shanghai realized Hard Wallet payment without mobile phone for the first time, and the development of digital RMB is accelerating

however, this move has aroused people's concern about bitcoin, and they even think that digital RMB will replace bitcoin

the central bank's digital currency represents the digitization of RMB cash. More reflected in improving the efficiency of domestic small high-frequency transactions, thus playing a role in replacing RMB cash, thus consolidating China's monetary sovereignty

however, bitcoin is a currency based on blockchain technology, which has a limit on the total amount of issuance and cannot be over issued

last time I talked about this with people from Yingfu University of Finance and economics. Because there is a fundamental difference between digital personal name coin and bitcoin, it will not bring much impact on the price trend of bitcoin.

3.

the natural nature of bitcoin is decentralized, but the Central Bank of digital currency must abide by the centralized management model. Compared with bitcoin, the central bank's digital currency has a higher "currency" value, and the price of bitcoin fluctuates greatly. the central bank's digital currency ensures the payment function in daily life, and has remained relatively stable since 2014. Since the beginning of the year, the central bank has been actively engaged in the research and development of digital currency, including the active application of relevant patents

starting from the issue of digital currency, the central bank uses a two-level operating system, which first converts digital currency into banks or other operating institutions, and then to the public. Mu Changchun said the al transmission system is suitable for China's national conditions. We can not only use the existing resources to mobilize the enthusiasm of commercial banks, but also improve the acceptance of digital currency without any problem

4.

To guard against the possible risks brought by bitcoin, we know that digital currency represented by bitcoin has high risks. This kind of risk is mainly reflected in two aspects: first, the limitation of digital currency makes it used as investment goods, and the price is extremely unstable. Those who do not understand the principle of digital currency and pay too much attention to speculation are easy to suffer losses for various reasons

Secondly, national digital currency is linked to its own legal currency to a certain extent, so it effectively avoids the price volatility of bitcoin. Because the CBDC issued by our country is guaranteed by the credit of the central bank, it must be a stable currency. In today's international situation, the research and development of digital currency in China is of great significance. The introction of digital currency is not an expedient measure, it has become the development direction of China's future currency

5. As far as I know, the central bank has not yet issued virtual currency, because the people's Bank of China said on the 21st that it will strive to issue digital currency as soon as possible. So there are many kinds of virtual currencies on the market, and the Liwu currency is not bad. You can study it. The move could help the yuan weaken the global dominance of the dollar and limit capital outflows.

6.

Digital currency can be understood as the digitalization of RMB, which has two obvious advantages: "no account payment" and "no network payment". After Facebook launched Libra this year, the central bank's digital currency has also stepped in. We see both challenges and opportunities

in a word, digital currency is still RMB in fact, but some changes have taken place in its form. We say that digital currency is of great significance. It not only enhances the security and controllability, but also makes counterfeit currency "invisible". In addition, the issuance of the central bank's digital currency is also concive to the central bank's more convenient and transparent management

7. The central bank investigates whether bitcoin is fake, and the central bank mainly investigates trading platforms. China's bitcoin transaction has accounted for more than 90% of the global transaction volume, and bitcoin transaction has been occupied by China, which controls the bitcoin market
the central bank recently stayed in the three major bitcoin trading platforms in China mainly to cool bitcoin, because the price of bitcoin has fluctuated greatly recently. Leverage, financing and currency have long been criticized in China. This investigation is expected
the central bank's investigation of the three platforms will affect all digital currencies, but it has little impact on the digital currencies on the coin Ying China platform, all of which are mortgaged by real assets.

8. The digital currency of the central bank is the indexed RMB, which is a legal encrypted digital currency. It is not only a payment tool, but also a currency. The fundamental difference between it and virtual currency lies in the difference of issuers. Virtual currency issuers are not central banks and can only circulate in a specific virtual environment. Digital currency is issued by the central bank and supported by national credit. It has the advantages of national platform, banking platform and big data platform, and can be used for real commodity and service transactions. And we need to remind you that only digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency, and bitcoin is illegal.
