Research on payment application of virtual currency

In recent years, the rise of financial technology drives the digital and intelligent development of finance, and the form of money is also evolving. Recently, the news of digital currency has attracted people's attention, and there is still a lot of gap with the current online payment

As a proct of e-commerce, virtual currency is playing a more and more important role, and it is more and more connected with the real world. However, with the growth of virtual currency, the relevant laws and regulations are lagging behind, which has laid many hidden dangers

1. fraud

2. impact on financial system

3. network security problems

   
   

4. solutions

   with the continuous progress of technology, electronic payment (including electronic money) is changing people's payment habits, but also changing people's consumption habits, promoting the expansion of consumer credit. It is necessary to pay close attention to the innovation of the form, the evolution of the nature, the difference of the operation mode and the possible impact on the credit risk and moral hazard of this new thing, and properly supervise it. But the more important thing is to give the market main body corresponding development space, avoid strangling the development vitality of the corresponding business organization in the early stage of market development. Therefore, the best way to treat e-money is to observe its changes and strengthen research. In the face of such remarks as "q-coin impacts the RMB financial market", we need to discuss them in the context of scientific and technological progress. The key to understand the problem is how to design relevant policies and encourage the development of electronic payment instruments such as electronic money, rather than the harm of speculative virtual money and electronic money. We call for strengthening supervision

In the two sessions every year, "I don't like the idea of creating a proct that can be speculated and make people rich overnight", "in the future, things in the form of traditional banknotes and coins may graally shrink, or even one day they may not exist.", This is one of the representatives of China's financial regulators who expressed the above views when talking about the central bank's digital currency and bitcoin, ICO supervision and other topics

"these things can be the digital currency based on blockchain, distributed accounting technology and DLT, or the technology evolved from the existing electronic payment." He said

The essence of money is the general equivalent. In the process of the continuous development and evolution of human history, it has gone through the stage of physical money, the stage of substitute money, and then entered the stage of credit money. In primitive society, people exchanged livestock, salt, shells and other hard to get goods as general equivalents

in the long history, the emergence of metal currency makes the economic life achieve unprecedented prosperity. However, e to the inconvenience of carrying metal money, paper money became the mainstream form of money. With the rapid development of modern information technology, e-money has come into our life

if the evolution process from physical money to value symbol paper money is the first qualitative leap in the history of money development, then the evolution process from paper money to electronic money is the second qualitative leap in the history of money development

from the perspective of money form, physical money itself is a commodity in addition to performing monetary functions; Paper money is a symbolic tool of value for commodity exchange and a credit currency; Electronic currency is the proct of highly developed Internet economy and continuous progress of bank payment and settlement technology. It not only has the function of traditional currency, but also can continuously improve digital currency

a huge virtual space based on the Internet has been formally formed. As a kind of virtual currency with intrinsic value, convenient online trading behavior, low transaction cost, and service providers' issuance, it emerges as the times require

first of all, from the functional analysis. Virtual currency is a kind of transaction medium in the Internet virtual space, which has the function of value scale, but the value scale of virtual currency is different from that of legal currency

using virtual currency to purchase virtual procts and services can only be within the scope specified and allowed by the issuer of virtual currency (Internet operator), and the size of this scope depends on the number of virtual procts and services. If the virtual procts and services provided by the website are large enough, the scope of virtual currency will be large

the currency value of virtual currency depends on the pricing of virtual currency by issuers. When no currency can communicate between virtual cyberspace and reality, the pricing of procts and services is still based on real RMB. That is to say, when issuers of virtual currency price their own virtual currency, they should first convert the price of virtual currency based on RMB

Last week, a paragraph about bitcoin became popular:

bitcoin broke through 5800 US dollars (about 38280 yuan) . When it was issued in 2009, 1 US dollar was equivalent to 1300 bitcoins. What is investment? It has increased by 7.54 million times in 8 years. At that time, you spent 38000 yuan to buy some bitcoin. Now you are the richest man in China, surpassing Xu Jiayin, who has 290 billion yuan

but just one week later, on October 20, bitcoin broke through the $6000 mark. Although it fell later, it reached more than $6000 again on October 21, reaching a maximum of $6147. In terms of $6000, bitcoin prices have risen 7.8 million times in eight years
