Virtual currency policy
Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the central bank, said at last year's Boao Forum that bitcoin, like stamps collected by stamp collectors, has collection value, and people regard it as an asset to trade rather than a payment currency, so there is no question of banning it for the central bank. This is also the only time central bank governor Zhou Xiaochuan has made a statement on the currency
in the bitcoin risk notice issued by the central bank and other five ministries and commissions at the end of 2013, bitcoin was clearly defined as a special Internet commodity, which people can buy and sell freely under the premise of free but risk, denying its monetary attribute. At this stage, all financial hooks are not allowed to provide bitcoin related services
since 2013, the popular virtual currencies are bitcoin, Fuyuan coin, Laite coin, doggy coin and so on.
In fact, we all know that in many cases, the development of the Internet may be more and more important, and more and more people are more dependent on the Internet, and will continue to improve the function and role of the Internet, and constantly improve the status of the Internet, so that the Internet can play an important role in the process of national economic development
in fact, more and more countries will pay more attention to digital currency, and also think that there will be only one currency that should be developed to a certain extent, and more and more countries are constantly developing and improving their technology. Why has promoting the research and development of digital currency become an important policy option for all countries? I think there are three main reasons:
first, digital currency itself is very important
in fact, I think the reason why countries want to promote the research and development of digital currency is that playing digital currency itself is also very important. Because digital currency is also more convenient, it can make digital currency play a greater role in daily life, is a kind of welfare for the people, and also can make people have a more convenient life. Therefore, all countries should promote this research and development{ RRRRR}
