Stellar virtual currency
bitcoin is the originator of digital currency and the most valuable virtual currency. Because blackmail virus only takes bitcoin, it has entered the public view. The soaring price of bitcoin in 2017 has attracted a large number of investors to enter the digital money market. Because the number is small, it is only 21 million, which has a strong deflationary attribute
of course, I am extremely optimistic about the future of bitcoin. Of course, many people are not optimistic about digital currency. Here, it is most pertinent to quote Krugman's view:
"at least for now, buying bitcoin is still a good investment. But that doesn't mean the experiment was successful. The original intention of establishing a monetary system is not to make those who hold money rich, but to make transactions convenient and benefit the whole economy. And none of these bitcoins came to us. "
reborn currency
a protocol currency issued by reborn, which is the base currency of reborn network. It can circulate in the whole reborn network, with a total amount of 100 billion, and graally decreases with the increase of transactions. Reborn currency is the only common currency in ripple system, which is different from other currencies in ripple system, Ripple labs (formerly known as opencoin) is the operating company of ripple coin
unlike bitcoin, reborn is a kind of transaction protocol, which is called smart contract in technical terms. It supports people to pay in any currency, and does not need a central data exchange center, so the transaction confirmation time of ripple is only 35 seconds, while that of bitcoin is 10-40 minutes
Ethereum
Ethereum is the name of currency used in Ethereum, which is used for payment calculation in Ethereum virtual machine. Ethereum is a blockchain that can be used to deploy decentralized applications. It is an open source computer platform and blockchain platform. At the end of 2013, it was founded by vitalik buterin, a Russian programmer
there is a key difference between the blockchain technologies used by Ethereum and bitcoin. Ethereum's data processing speed is faster than that of bitcoin, because once agreed, Ethereum's system will automatically apply to the terms and conditions in the contract
unlike bitcoin, the value of Ethereum depends on whether the applications on the platform of Ethereum are prosperous or not, just like the price of oil will rise with more machines using oil
bitcoin cash
bitcoin cash is a branch of bitcoin. In order to solve the problem of long transaction time of bitcoin, at 20:20 on August 1, 2017, a small number of mining machines began to use 8m block to start mining, and the transaction confirmation speed was thousands of times faster than that of bitcoin using 1m block
strictly speaking, however, there are different opinions on whether this is a new branch of bitcoin or another kind of "counterfeit currency". But now the offer of bitcoin cash is nearly 20000 yuan, so it's not too much to use it as a kind of "Shanzhai coin" to divide bitcoin traffic
IDA coin, ADA in English, is a proct of Cardano project. The total amount of Aida is 4.5 billion yuan, and 3 billion yuan will participate in the subscription. Among them, 2.5 billion ADA will be used for platform subscription, 500 million for the financial support of the development company's operating company, and 1.5 billion ADA coins will continue to be issued in the form of block awards
Cardano is a project started in 2015 to change the way cryptocurrency is designed and developed. This project is aimed at technical reformers, technical improvements to bitcoin and existing platforms. If bitcoin, Ethereum and other projects have many other shortcomings, Cardano can solve them<
lightcoin
a currency based on bitcoin protocol, but it does not require very high computing power, and it can also be mined by ordinary computer. 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)
for a long time, there has been a voice that "lightcoin will replace bitcoin", which is impossible. In the future, there will probably be a variety of cryptography currencies in the world, but any kind of counterfeit currency can not replace the mainstream position of bitcoin, no matter how excellent its algorithm is compared with bitcoin<
stellar currency
stellar currency, a digital currency project initiated by Jed McCaleb, the former founder of ripple, is used to build a decentralized gateway between digital currency and legal tender. It will be provided to users in the form of free distribution, and its supply online is 100 billion, of which 95% of the amount of star coin is used for free distribution
star is a diversified team. The board members include Keith rabois, former COO of square, Patrick collison, CEO of stripe, Jackson Palmer, co-founder of dogcoin, and naval Ravikant, co-founder of angellist, who will be the consultant of the project< New economy movement, or NEM, was founded on January 19, 2014. The founder is a mysterious person in bitcointalk.org forum called utopianfuture. The original intention of utopian future was to build a second-generation digital currency NXT. He then realized that NXT's distribution model was unreasonable, so he devoted himself to NEM with egalitarian distribution
as a kind of cryptocurrency, new coin does not need much computing resources to maintain the operation of nodes. The proof of importance (POI) engine of NEM reces the threshold of computing resources to participate in non-traditional blockchain<
dascoin
formerly known as black coin, is a kind of counterfeit currency of bitcoin, which focuses on anonymous function. There are many innovations, such as master node network, fast payment, mixed currency anonymous technology, proposals can vote, and developers have fixed budget support. The core consists of a unique incentive P2P network. Miners are rewarded for maintaining blockchain security; The main node holders are rewarded for verifying transactions, storing data and providing a variety of services
the feature of anonymity meets the needs of some investors for absolute privacy. Although bitcoin is also widely used in money laundering and other illegal transactions e to its anonymity, it is only "pseudo anonymity", and the transaction of bitcoin can still be traced back to the traders themselves.
Bitcoin is not the only digital currency on the Internet. There are also ripple, stellar, litecoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies. Of course, the most popular is still bitcoin. But many times, some developers, entrepreneurs or enterprises will let us know that we need better digital currency. A programmer named Jed McCaleb, the father of electric donkeys, developed the reborn coin, which should be better than the bitcoin. Later, he launched the star coin, which is better than the reborn coin. What is more gratifying is that he is not fighting alone
now there is a trend that the instry hopes to develop a technology that enables all these online digital currencies to flow to each other, which means that you can transfer money freely in different online digital currency systems in the future. This technology is known as "interleaver protocol (ILP)", initiated by ripote. However, in recent months, that is, after the company released this idea, they also got the support of many famous companies in the instry, including Microsoft and the world wide web. Obviously, Ruibo currency company wants to set the technical standard of digital currency on the Internet. They want to develop a single global network, which can not only unify all digital currencies, but also unify all enterprises and indivials who use these digital currencies
"we want to be on a higher level and extract the differences between various digital currencies," said Stephen Thomas, chief technology officer of ripple. "We are trying to develop a global standard for payment."
with the launch of this agreement, we hope to enable more people to use online digital currency, expand the scope of use of online digital currency, and let us transfer funds more efficiently. This is actually the goal of many existing projects. For example, the original intention of the design of reborn currency and star currency is to allow users to transfer money to these two digital currency accounts in any currency, and to enable these two digital currencies to be converted into other currencies correspondingly. You can send bitcoin, and then the other party gets it. You can also send us dollars, and the other party will get dogecoin. However, for businesses and the developer community, there are restrictions on their use of these ledgers, so there are some problems because you can't transfer money from one payment network to another. Now, however, the interleaver agreement hopes to change that
to some extent, after ten years of efforts, they hope to develop a new network protocol, which is commonly known as "money Internet". If we go back to the early 1990s, we know that the famous Marc Andreessen founded the Netscape web browser. Now, the project hopes to play a similar role. They want to establish a standard way to send funds on the Internet. In fact, the original Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP, which defined the basic standard of the network) contained code for payment. But this code has never been used. In recent years, many companies (such as coinbase, a bitcoin exchange, and stripe, a company that helps enterprises accept various online digital currencies) are at least trying to create a conventional standard for online digital currencies. In the future, we hope to be able to send and receive money online, just like sending short messages or e-mails. However, we still have a long way to go to this paradise, but at least now we are in the right direction
bitcoin is not the only digital currency on the Internet, but also ripple, stellar, litecoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies.
can't confirm
the ups and downs of the trading of the currency circle, which seems simple but contains the gateway! It is reported that BTC will continue to maintain the level of US $7800-7900 in January 2020 and wait for further outbreak. The current trend shows that bitcoin has begun to enter the rising channel in the next six months of 2020
The main reasons for the low price in January are as follows:1. Many institutions and companies will settle accounts at the end of the year, and most of them settle accounts in the form of legal currency
2. Christmas is a traditional festival in the west, which is equivalent to the Spring Festival in the East. At this time, users will throw money in exchange for legal money for consumption, and the capital will flow out
3. The Spring Festival is mostly from January to February of the Gregorian calendar, and China is a huge market for bitcoin, which has a great impact on the market. Before the Spring Festival, indivials and companies will sell a certain amount of money to prepare for the festival
now, it's 2020, and bitcoin has bottomed out twice. It's not known whether the low price has appeared and the best purchase price has been reached. However, judging from the recent performance of etc and BCH, the half price may have come. In addition, the escalating conflict between the United States and Iran and the instability of the international situation will accelerate the arrival of bitcoin bull market
1. Open stope mining method, empty area without treatment
2. Caving method, using caving surrounding rock to control ground pressure
