Unlimited amount of virtual currency
One of the most special currencies is undoubtedly bitcoin. The biggest characteristic of bitcoin is that the quantity is limited! Moreover, bitcoin supporters believe that one of the advantages of bitcoin is that the number of bitcoins is fixed{ RRRRR}
although bitcoin is limited, there is no need to worry about the problem of insufficient use, because bitcoin, as an electronic currency, is too easy to be divided. For example, in our real life, 10 yuan banknotes can be changed into 10 pieces of 1 yuan banknotes, and 1 yuan banknotes can be changed into 10 pieces of 1 jiao banknotes. Limited by the real currency, it's hard for you to find 1 Fen banknotes now, let alone tear 1 Fen banknotes into 10 pieces. But bitcoin is different. In the current data structure of bitcoin, the smallest unit is 0.00000001 bitcoin, that is & lt; 1 Cong & quot;, On top of that, there are micro bits (0.000001 bitcoin). If necessary in the future, bitcoin can also consider smaller partition units. Money can be divided into small pieces, which means it's easier to circulate, so bitcoin is limited and no problem
1. Q coin
Q coin, referred to as QB, also known as QQ coin, Tencent Q coin, etc. Usually its exchange rate is 1q currency = 1 RMB, with Tencent paipai net transactions are generally 10% off
QB is a virtual currency launched by Tencent, which can be used to pay for QQ bank number, QQ member service and other services. Tencent q-coin, through the purchase of QQ card, telephone recharge, bank card recharge, network recharge, mobile phone recharge card, one card recharge card and other ways to obtain
The face value of QQ card is 10 yuan, 15 yuan, 30 yuan, 60 yuan, 100 yuan and 200 yuan respectivelythere is another kind of electronic cryptocurrency, qqcoin, which is not related to each other
2. Litecoin
litecoin, abbreviated as LTC, currency symbol: Ł; It is a kind of network currency based on "peer-to-peer" technology. It is also an open source software project under MIT / X11 license. It can help users make instant payments to anyone in the world
lightcoin is inspired by bitcoin (BTC) and has the same implementation principle in technology. The creation and transfer of lightcoin is based on an open source encryption protocol and is not managed by any central organization
3, infinite coin
infinite coin (hereinafter referred to as IFC) is a new digital currency, which has more circulation advantages than bitcoin, and fills the short board of bitcoin in the field of commercial circulation and promoting commercial operation. The positioning of unlimited money is to serve the daily life of small transaction payment
one transaction of infinite coin needs three confirmations, each confirmation takes three seconds, and the transaction confirmation speed is very fast. Because bitcoin transaction needs 6 confirmations, which takes about 1 hour, and lightcoin transaction takes 15 minutes, infinite coin is used in daily common transactions, which is more practical
infinite coin was released on June 5, 2013. Based on scrypt POW algorithm. A block is generated in 30 seconds. In the initial block, there are 524288 infinite coins in each block. After that, for every 86400 blocks generated, the number of coins in the block is halved, with a total of 90.6 billion. The difficulty of mining is adjusted every hour
Quark coin is not the currency in real life, it exists safely in the computer of global networkquark network is protected by six most advanced encryption algorithms to ensure that it can become a digital ledger. The whole network uses each of the six functions to generate a proof of work, and the coin maker must "verify" these transactions to ensure that each coin increase is real and effective
only regular computer can participate in ensuring that it can maintain a highly secure peer-to-peer network, which makes it more decentralized
quark coins can only be g up through the CPU of regular computers. In the first 36 weeks, a total of 247605120 quark coins will be g out. Since March 30, 2014, the annual quark coins set at 1050000 can enter the market through "digging", and the block reward will never be less than one, which is currently two
Zetacoin is an open-source digital currency based on SHA-256 algorithm. The initial coin mining is 160 million coins, and the subsequent annual inflation is a better incentive, To keep the hash of the network is not pure transaction cost The total number ofzetacoin is 160 million, 1000 zets per block and half of 80640 zets per block
the assumption is that six data blocks can be generated every hour in the world, and 210000 data blocks can be generated every four years; Then it makes a decreasing payment for the return of data blocks, 50 bitcoin for each data block in the first four years, 25 bitcoin for each data block in the second four years, 12.5 bitcoin for each data block in the third four years, and so on... Finally, the total number of bitcoins is -
210000 x (50 + 25 + 12.5 + 6.25 + 3.125 +...) = 21 million
the cumulative sum in brackets is close to 100 and will never exceed 100, so the total number of bitcoins is 21 million
currently in the second four-year period, each calculated data block contains 25 bitcoins
2. There is no loss of wealth. Many people at home and abroad are digging for bitcoin, and they are also speculating in bitcoin. Computer and Internet speed can only determine the speed of bitcoin digging, but not the value of bitcoin. Even if you say that we dig abroad, we fry. Now we buy a bitcoin for $300, and there will be no bitcoin to dig in the future. Maybe a bitcoin will sell for $3000, and then we sell it again, won't we make a profit? Where is the loss of wealth? Of course, maybe a bitcoin will be worth $3 at that time. Who can say that it is not born by the central banks
3. In addition to bitcoin, there are several similar virtual currencies such as lightcoin. However, they all adopt similar design principles. Therefore, in the future, there will inevitably be a problem that the currency will eventually be widely recognized, and other currencies that are not recognized will be eliminated. Otherwise, a new virtual currency can pop up at any time. It's not the same as printing money, which completely goes against their original design intention.
the development of this kind of digital currency depends on the quantity. There are more than 30 million digital currencies. Dogcoin is a typical example. Although dogcoin is the digital currency with the second largest number of users in the world after bitcoin, its recent development momentum is not optimistic. The total number of thousand gold cards is only 3 million, but the development momentum is good.
in the first four years, 50 pieces were g out every ten minutes: 50 * 6 * 24 * (365 * 4 + 1) = 10519200 pieces
in the second four years, 25 pieces were g out every ten minutes: 25 * 6 * 24 * (365 * 4 + 1) = 5259600 pieces
according to the sum formula of infinite equal ratio sequence, the final total amount is infinitely close to 21038400 pieces (10519200 * 2)
as long as the mining rules are not changed, the number of bitcoins will never exceed 21038400
