Is the recent virtual currency deceptive

1.

Basic routine: the "trading market" of MLM digital currency is basically controlled by specific institutions. In order to attract investors' investment in the early stage, the currency price may be very high. Once the time is ripe, it will be sold intensively, and the price will plummet, and the investors will lose all their money

There are three characteristics of digital money MLM:

1. Digital money is a real proct, and it is highly packaged

2. The participants can get a head pulling reward, and the prize is the digital currency itself

3. Digital currency will appreciate with the increase of participants in the scam. In the cycle of digital currency appreciation, the number of participants who can obtain digital currency will also increase, and the participants, including the lowest level participants, will also gain, but in the cycle of devaluation, the bottom level participants often lose a lot

in 2017, the Internet Finance Association of Jiangsu Province issued the "internet pyramid selling identification guide", which named 26 so-called digital currencies as illegal pyramid selling projects covered or suspected to be covered with digital currency. They are: treasure money, Baichuan money, SMI, MBI, mark money, Diablo money, mmm, Fuda compound wealth management, carat money, V treasure, Vicat money, petroleum money, Huaqiang money, CB aiib Hong Kong Group, Yuansheng, Morgan money, beta money, WorldCom, u money, Jubao, 21st century fox, Wanxi wealth management, Wanfu money, Wuxing money, Yi money, Zhonghua money, etc

extended materials:

five ways to distinguish whether digital currency is pyramid selling currency:

1. Issuance mode

virtual currency does not rely on specific monetary institutions. It is proced by a large number of calculations according to specific algorithms, and is a decentralized issuance mode. Each different terminal node is responsible for maintaining the same account book, and the maintenance process is mainly to package and encrypt the transaction information by the algorithm, while the MLM currency is mainly issued by a certain organization, and the profit is made by pulling the head

2. Transaction mode

virtual currency is a kind of sporadic transaction spontaneously formed in the market, which is graally completed by a third party establishing an exchange after the scale is formed. The MLM currency is issued by an institution and traded on its own platform

3. Implementation method

virtual currency itself is an open source program, which is maintained in GitHub community. The parameters and methods of the total amount limit are shown in the open source code. The open source of MLM currency is completely ing other people's open source code, and there is no use of open source code to build programs, so its essence is controlled by the website like Q currency

4, whether to give the source code link

General decentralized digital currency will give the source code link in the prominent position of the official website, so as to show the operation mechanism of the monetary system openly and transparently. The MLM currency focuses on the transaction process of recharge purchase, but does not mention its operation mechanism. Even the website does not have the link address of the source code

5, whether the official website starts with HTTPS

generally, the addresses of the official website and trading website of decentralized digital currency start with HTTPS, and the purpose is that this kind of website can well protect the user's data from illegal theft. But the official website of MLM currency, trading website and other related websites do not start with HTTPS

2. 1、 Classification
1. Digital cryptocurrency: a digital currency created, distributed and maintained by cryptography and verification technology. The characteristic of cryptocurrency is that it uses peer-to-peer technology and everyone can issue it. For example, bitcoin, lightcoin
2. Shanzhai coin: imitates the theory of digital cryptocurrency, applies digital encryption technology such as blockchain, and issues digital currency in different instries
3. Air currency: fabricated application background. It uses blockchain and other technologies as packaging, constructs value system at will, takes illegal possession as the purpose, and swindles investors by Ponzi scheme< Second, profit model
1. The profit model of digital cryptocurrency mainly includes proction and investment speculation. Proction is also known as mining, different procts have different proction modes. Its principle is to calculate the number by computer, and finally get the encrypted string in accordance with the formula. Investment speculation is the same as investing in ordinary financial derivatives. With the change of market supply and demand, the value of money will change periodically
2. Shanzhai coin: the profit in the early stage is similar to Ponzi scheme, and the customer level is built by direct selling. The principal of later investors is the source of profits. The difference between air currency and air currency lies in: first, it has a certain theoretical application basis, such as Internet traffic, agricultural application, etc. Second, through the operation in the later stage, it can proce a certain monetary value. Third, it has certain circulation
3. High return, rapid accumulation of funds< Third, legal definition
1. It is not allowed to issue and trade digital cryptocurrency in the people's Republic of China, and its legitimacy is questioned. The main reason is that the supervision of digital currency is difficult, which may restrict the circulation of currency. In addition, because digital encryption currency has no solid value support, the huge economic bubble will easily cause financial system risk.
2. Therefore, this kind of business is the main body of the market. Most of the issuers are located in Malaysia, Singapore and other areas with relatively lax supervision and relatively open financial markets
3. Strike hard. One case was found, investigated and dealt with, and identified as financial fraud. The main issuers are generally in Myanmar, Cambodia and other areas where military protection forces are more prevalent. After raising funds from Chinese mainland, the local military will pay protection fees. Later, he directed domestic crimes abroad.

3. This is about whether bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme
Ponzi scheme is a kind of fraulent investment operation. It uses investors' own money to pay investors in return, or new investors' money to pay old investors, rather than the company's own money. When there are not enough new investors to join, the Ponzi scheme will collapse, and the final investors will suffer
bitcoin is a free software project without a central management organization, so no one can make a false statement about the return on investment. Just like other major currencies, such as gold, US dollar, euro, Japanese yen, etc., bitcoin can not guarantee purchasing power and the exchange rate is free floating. The resulting volatility makes it impossible for bitcoin holders to predict profits or losses. The fact is that bitcoin is being used by thousands of users and businesses because of its useful and competitive features.

4. It seems that the ranking of virtual currency apps is more authoritative, but not every ranking is reliable. After all, it's an era when everyone can edit, and it's more difficult to distinguish the true from the false. It can only be said that ranking is only a reference and can not be listed as a direct election range. In the process of selection, it also depends on whether there is supervision, whether the customer's funds are deposited by the bank, whether they can be paid in and out, and so on. In these three aspects, the realm Kingdom seems to be in line.

5. The concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, open source software was designed and released, and P2P network was built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
unlike most currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount 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
bitcoin can be cashed and converted into the currency of most countries. Users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats and equipment in online games. As long as someone accepts it, they can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items[ 1-2]
on February 26, 2014, Joe Manchin, a Democratic senator from West Virginia, issued an open letter to a number of regulatory authorities of the US federal government, hoping that the relevant institutions would pay attention to the status quo of bitcoin's encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and take action as soon as possible, In order to completely ban the e-currency

a few years ago, China's aunts were crazy about bitcoin.
