Virtual currency is not the general equivalent

1. D
if we do not include the electronic currency of the banking system, the network virtual currency can be roughly divided into
the first category is the 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.

2. Money is the general equivalent
the general equivalent is the basis of the emergence of money and the development of the general equivalent
this problem should be seen from the origin of money
accidental barter -- expanded barter -- emergence of general equivalent -- emergence of currency
before the emergence of money, the general equivalent has appeared, but it is not fixed. Many commodities have served as general equivalents. This is the most important difference between them

2. It can be directly exchanged with all other commodities to show the value of other commodities

differences

1; Money came into being after the second division of labor

2; It has a wide range; Currency has a narrow extension and scope, especially gold and silver

3; Money is fixed in these three aspects.

3. General equivalent
general equivalent is a kind of commodity which is separated from commodity and serves as the unified value expression material of all other commodities. Its appearance is the inevitable result of the development of commodity proction and exchange. Historically, the general equivalent was undertaken by some special commodities. With the progress of society, gold and silver have become the most suitable currencies to perform the function of general equivalent. Money is a special commodity separated from commodities and fixed as a general equivalent

overview
the emergence of general equivalents is e to the lack of unified equivalents in the form of expanded value, which can not meet the increasing needs of exchange, so the functions of equivalents graally spontaneously stabilize on a certain commodity, resulting in the emergence of general equivalents. The general equivalent is a socially recognized equivalent form. Its natural form has become the common value form of all commodities. It can be directly exchanged with all other commodities. All other commodities regard it as the embodiment of abstract human labor and have relations with it. Only when all other commodities are first transformed into general equivalents, the private labor expended on them can be recognized by the society and become direct social labor. Only in this way can they actually have exchange value and can they be exchanged for other commodities at any time. Therefore, the general equivalent becomes the medium of commodity exchange and plays the role of currency. However, it is not money. Only when the function of general equivalent is stable on precious metals, can it develop into money[ 1]

It's not a general equivalent

the general equivalent is separated from the commodity world and represents the value of all other commodities. For example, gold and silver coins can be used as currency or general equivalent because they have value; As a form of currency, paper money has no commodity value and can not be called general equivalent

the emergence of general equivalent is e to the lack of unified equivalent in the form of expanded value, which can not meet the increasing needs of exchange, so the function of equivalent graally spontaneously stabilizes on a certain commodity, thus the emergence of general equivalent. The general equivalent is a socially recognized equivalent form

The general equivalent can be directly exchanged with all other commodities, and all other commodities regard it as the embodiment of abstract human labor and have relations with it. Only when all other commodities are first transformed into general equivalents, the private labor expended on them can be recognized by the society and become direct social labor, which in fact has exchange value and can be exchanged for other commodities at any time

The general equivalent becomes the medium of commodity exchange and plays the role of currency. However, it is not money. Only when the function of general equivalent is stable on precious metals, can it develop into money

2. They can be directly exchanged with all other commodities to show the value of other commodities

Second, differences:

1. The general equivalent came into being after the first division of labor; Money came into being after the second division of labor

(2) general equivalent epitaxy; It has a wide range; Currency has a narrow extension and scope, especially gold and silver

The general equivalent is not fixed in time, region and material texture; Money is fixed in these three aspects

5. Because money itself has no value, it just substitutes the general equivalent to facilitate circulation. The general equivalent must be of equal value. For example, when barter, you take a sheep for a pile of grain, both are useful, each has its own value, relatively equivalent, and money you take back has no use value. To put it more popularly, RMB is used as a kind of currency as agreed or stipulated by the government for circulation. In fact, its words are just a piece of paper and have no use value.

6. Of course, paper money is money, and virtual money is money
money is not a commodity, but a general equivalent for commodity exchange
e-money is a virtual currency with the same value as paper money.

9. The first process of circulation can be said to be the theoretical preparation process of actual circulation. As a commodity with use value, it first creates a form for itself. In this form, they exchange value with each other in concept and materialize general labor time. The first necessary action in this process, as we already know, is that commodity makes a special commodity, For example, gold, as the direct embodiment of general labor time, is separated as the general equivalent. Let's review the form that commodities take when transforming gold into money:
in this equation series, iron, wheat, coffee, potash and so on are the same labor, that is, the embodiment of labor materialized in gold, As value, they are the same, the same incarnation of the same labor or the same incarnation of labor, which is gold. As the same incarnation of the same labor, they have only one difference, that is, the difference of quantity, or the expression of different quantities of value, Because their use value contains different labor time. They are such a single commodity, but because they have a relationship with the general labor time itself, that is, the same separated commodity gold, they also have a relationship with each other as the embodiment of the general labor time, The labor time contained in gold is shown as general labor time. A certain amount of this general labor time is shown in different amounts of iron, wheat, coffee and so on. In a word, it is shown in the use value of all commodities, or in the infinite series of commodity equivalents, Gold directly uses all commodities to express its exchange value. When commodities endow each other with the form of exchange value, they endow gold with the form of general equivalent or currency.
because all commodities use gold to measure their exchange value according to the proportion of a certain amount of gold and a certain amount of commodities with the same amount of labor time, gold becomes a measure of value, On the other hand, the exchange value of all commodities is now expressed in gold, The exchange value of goods exists as the embodiment of the same labor time; On the one hand, it shows the general nature of the labor time contained in each commodity, on the other hand, it shows the amount of labor time in their gold equivalent. The exchange value of a commodity is thus a special commodity, or, The only equality of goods with a special kind of goods, as a general equivalence and also as the degree of equivalence, is price. Price is the transformation form of the exchange value of goods when it appears in the circulation process
