Digital currency and virtual bank

1. The world's first digital currency was invented and issued by David Chaum, known as the father of digital currency. As a mathematician, cryptographer and computer expert, he began to study how to make digital currency in the late 1970s. Digital currency is a kind of currency existing in the form of electronic number, which is an electronic flow of information transmitted on the network through the circuit composed of 0 and 1. Compared with the traditional real currency, i.e. paper money and coins, digital currency has obvious advantages: traditional currency has greater storage risk, expensive transportation costs, and requires a lot of investment in security and anti-counterfeiting. Digital currency is different from e-currency such as credit card and e-check. It has higher level and higher technology content. It can be used without connecting to the bank network and is very convenient for customers. By the end of 1995, as more and more users of the digital currency invented by JOM, it was accepted by a bank called Mark Twain, enabling it to convert to the real deposits in the user's account
network virtual currency can be roughly divided into
the first category is familiar game currency. In the era of stand-alone games, the protagonist accumulates money by knocking down the enemy, entering the gambling house to win money, and using these to buy Herbs and equipment, but it can only be used in his own game console. At that time, there was no "market" between players. Since the establishment of Internet portal and community, the realization of game networking, virtual currency has a "financial market", players can trade game currency
the second type is the special currency issued by the portal website or instant messaging service provider, which is used to purchase the services in the website. The most widely used is Tencent's q-coin, which can be used to purchase membership, QQ show and other value-added services
the third kind of virtual currency on the Internet, such as bitcoin (BTC), Wright currency (LTC), etc. bitcoin is an electronic currency proced by open-source P2P software. Some people also translate bitcoin as "bitcoin", which is a kind of network virtual currency. It is mainly used for Internet financial investment, and can also be directly used in daily life as a new currency.

2. Currency: in essence, it is a contract between the owner and the market about the right of exchange, and it is essentially an agreement between the owners. The essence of money contract determines that money can have different forms, such as general equivalent, precious metal money, paper money, electronic money and so on. Its basic function is the measure of value and the means of circulation—— Extracted from the Internet

fiat money: it means that it does not represent real goods or goods, and the issuer has not cashed the currency into physical obligation; A currency that becomes legal currency only by government decrees. The value of fiat money comes from the owner's belief that money will maintain its purchasing power in the future. Money itself has no intrinsic value, that is to say, when the paper money comes into being, legal tender is essentially the negotiable paper money stipulated by law

the legal currency of the people's Republic of China is RMB, and the people's Bank of China is the national authority in charge of the management of RMB, which is responsible for the design, printing and issuance of RMB—— From the Internet

e-money: in fact, it is the electronization of legal money, including our common bank card, online banking, e-cash, etc; There are also third party payments developed in recent years, such as Alipay and WeChat payment. No matter what the form of these electronic money is and through which institutions it circulates, its original source is the legal money issued by the central bank

virtual currency: virtual currency refers to non real currency, and its existing state is intangible. The most important difference between virtual currency and electronic currency in narrow sense is the difference of issuers. Virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. For example, game currency, q-coin, and ticket counting are mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment

digital currency: digital currency which applies the latest digital network technologies such as blockchain, has the characteristics of Distributed Accounting, unique encryption technology, decentralized settlement, etc. Of course, digital tools with these characteristics must be supported by national credit if they want to become sovereign currency or legal tender

therefore, digital currency must be currency; In today's social system, money must also be sovereign money or legal tender. Secondly, digital currency must have the basic attributes and main functions of currency.

3. Currency digitalization is like WeChat Alipay, and bankcard pays

Digital currency relies on blockchain technology and a system, which will make it suffer from security impact, such as hacker attacks on computer systems. We have seen many practical problems in this process< Another risk of digital currency is credit risk. Because there are middlemen in digital currency transactions, these middlemen are different from real organizations. In reality, organizations can be seen and felt, but the middlemen of digital currency are on the Internet, so the risk is greater
3. Digital currency has the characteristics of anonymity, quickness and irrevocability. In addition, bitcoin and other digital currencies have high circulation in the world, so many criminals use digital currency as a new money laundering channel. Moreover, there are many different ways to realize money laundering through digital currency. Generally speaking, the probability of new money laundering being found and investigated is lower than before. Many countries have no effective means and technology to combat money laundering through digital currency. These factors lead to criminals prefer this way of money laundering
investment is risky and business should be cautious

4. 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.

5. The virtual currency we use on the Internet, such as q-coin or other game currency, is strictly virtual goods or intermediate goods. It is not money and does not have the purchasing power of legal tender. Bitcoin, which is more talked about in the market, is also different. It is a decentralized virtual currency realized by using blockchain technology, which is easy to facilitate money laundering. Therefore, the application of blockchain technology should not be copied. If the central bank issues digital currency, it should be a kind of centralized currency. The legal currency issued by the central bank, encrypted and supported by national credit, should meet the regulatory requirements
a few days ago, Indian Prime Minister modi announced the issuance of a new currency aimed at combating tax evasion and money laundering. In fact, if the central bank issues digital currency with perfect technology and mature mechanism, it will have better effect. Because the digital currency, in addition to anti-counterfeiting, with the help of blockchain technology, makes the capital data traceable and highly transparent. These features can also be used for macro data statistics and monitoring, which has positive significance for big data risk control
as for what bank digital currency is, the central bank requested at the meeting on January 20 this year that the research team of the people's Bank of China should actively absorb the important achievements and practical experience of digital currency research at home and abroad, continue to promote on the basis of preliminary work, establish a more effective organizational guarantee mechanism, and further clarify the strategic objectives of the central bank in issuing digital currency, Do a good job in tackling key technologies, study the multi scenario application of digital currency, and strive to launch the digital currency issued by the central bank as soon as possible.
