On the emergence and development of virtual currency

Virtual currency is the currency used for electronic circulation. Now the scope of virtual currency is very large, including q-coin, bitcoin and so on. With the development of digital currency, virtual currency is becoming more and more abundant, which may become the mainstream in the future. For example, BTC, EOS, bcbot and so on are not only virtual currencies, but also algorithms, landing projects and technologies

virtual currency is mainly issued by online game service providers to purchase game props, such as equipment, clothing, etc. But at present, the use of virtual currency has gone far beyond this category.

real risk

as the proct of e-commerce, virtual currency has begun to play an increasingly important role, and it is more and more connected with the real world. However, with the growth of virtual currency, the relevant laws and regulations are lagging behind, which has laid many hidden dangers

fraud

the private transaction of online virtual currency has realized the two-way circulation between virtual currency and RMB to a certain extent. The activity of these traders is to buy all kinds of virtual currencies and procts at a low price, and then sell them at a high price to earn profits. With the increase of such transactions, there are even virtual mints. In addition to the virtual currency provided by the main company, there are also some people who specialize in "virtual coin making" to obtain virtual currency by playing games and then resell it to other players

Taking Wenzhou as an example, there are about seven or eight such "virtual mints" with four or five hundred practitioners. This not only creates a bubble for the price of the virtual currency itself, but also causes trouble for the normal sale of the issuing company. It also provides a platform for selling and collecting money and money laundering for various cyber crimes. p>

impact system

in modern financial system, the issuers of money are generally central banks, which are responsible for the management and supervision of money operation. As the equivalent exchange goods used to replace the real currency circulation on the Internet, the virtual currency on the Internet is essentially the same as the real currency. The difference is that the issuers are no longer central banks, but Internet companies

if the development of virtual currency makes it form a unified market, each company can exchange with each other, or virtual currency is integrated and unified, and all of them are based on the same standard and price, then in a sense, virtual currency is currency, which is likely to form a threat impact on the traditional financial system or economic operation

reference: network virtual currency

The main background of net currency is the difficulty of domestic micro electronic payment. Online game operators use this channel is not cheap vouchers to charge fees. Originally, only RMB was allowed to be exchanged for net currency, but reverse exchange was not allowed. However, with the development of online game instry, people spontaneously exchange various kinds of online currency, and even use online currency to buy physical procts or services that only RMB can buy, forming a purchasing power similar to currency. The boundary between virtual currency and real currency is graally blurred
in fact, in countries with developed financial environment, virtual currency has appeared for a long time, and its purpose is to make profits. For example, the virtual currency "Wangdou" first introced by beenz. Beenz has reached an agreement with MasterCard that consumers can not only save their online beans into smart cards, but also use them in traditional stores. This business model is to sell virtual net beans to some websites for 1 cent each, and then send them to netizens or let them win through various ways. These virtual currencies can be consumed as cash in online stores. In the end, beenz will buy it back from the website operator for 0.5 cents each for a profit. In 2000, there were about 750 million beenz beans in circulation, equivalent to 60 or 70 million yuan. It was also at that time that China's online currency appeared. China bonus provided virtual currency to consumers in the form of points. Points accumulated to a certain amount, can be used to exchange phone cards, network cards, T-shirts and other prizes
in online games, virtual goods such as virtual gold coins, virtual equipment, virtual animals and plants, and virtual people have great attraction for players, which promotes the consumption of these virtual goods. However, e to the backwardness of domestic electronic payment methods and security concerns, players often use cash in advance to buy the virtual currency issued by operators, Then use these vouchers to buy virtual goods online. As long as the content of the game is attractive enough, players will buy the virtual currency issued by the game operator through various channels. The development of online game instry has led to the surge of virtual currency types and circulation
in order to gather popularity, expand the number of game users, and improve the interest and loyalty of players, all game operators provide a considerable amount of free virtual currency, and players can win virtual currency through the game process. Therefore, online game operators actually have unlimited rights to issue virtual currency. If virtual money is only used to buy virtual goods, because the supply of virtual goods is artificially set, and the manufacturing time can be almost ignored, even if there are transactions between different types of virtual money, it will not have any impact on the real economy. However, if virtual currency can be used to buy real goods and services, excessive issuance will certainly cause inflation. At this time, whether the virtual currency is converted into real currency is not important
many domestic network enterprises have broken through the boundary between the virtual economy and the real economy. For example, Netease popo rewards users with money according to their online time. This virtual currency can pay for SMS. The exchange rate in this application can be calculated with the payment capacity of a short message worth 1000 yuan equal to 0.4 yuan; In addition, it can also be used as a voucher for purchasing physical goods in Netease mall. Holders of Shanda point coin can buy paid download services on the Internet. In addition to the company's paid services, q-coin can also be used to purchase other game point cards, virtual goods, and even some video and software download services
the emergence of money is an abstract unit of quantity for the convenience of exchanging different resources. If there are enough people to recognize the value of a virtual currency, it may become a substitute unit of material exchange. For example, with the popularity of QQ, Q coin has graally become a circulating equivalent exchange unit. Adam Smith, a famous economist, used barter to explain the origin of money in 1776: "the armor of Diomedes is only worth 9 cows, while the armor of glaucus is worth 100 cows. In Abyssinia, salt is a common medium of Commerce and trade; More than 200 years later, many people are exchanging various kinds of game currency for real life needs, and the Internet world has begun to dece the origin of currency again

Method 1: take a look at the display interface. Most of the display interfaces of the mine cards are not consistent with their own quality, because the display interface is basically not used in mining, so if all the display interfaces are very new, even the plastic plug is on them, you should pay a little attention to them

1. Graphics card and mine card:

the so-called mine card is the graphics card for mining. The "mining" here is virtual mining. Generally, there are professional graphics cards to mine. The mined mine is actually bitcoin. Users can download the mining software from the computer, run a specific algorithm, and get the corresponding bitcoin after communicating with the remote server, Most of them work in the way of burning video card, so the power consumption is large

the graphics cards and mine cards are usually ATI chips. Bitcoin went out of business, and the miners took out their mining cards and sold them as second-hand

2. Disadvantages of mine card:

Mining mostly adopts the way of burning graphics card. In order to maximize the benefits, the mine owners will keep the graphics card in 24-hour full load operation, which is equivalent to the aging test all the time, so that the graphics card can quickly age. After a long time of mining, the stability and life of the graphics card will certainly be affected< br />
