Virtual currency anchoring
There is no definition and distinction between game currency and stock, derivative financial instruments, especially electronic currency. In fact, there is an internal thread that can run through these different forms of virtual currency, which is the performance maturity of personalized value. We can summarize it logically as follows:
Bank e-money
Bank e-money was initially a kind of "pseudo virtual money". It only has the form of virtual currency, such as digitization and symbolization, but it does not have the essence of virtual currency and has nothing to do with personalization. For example, it is just the counterpart of paper money; It may be issued by the central bank; It may be in the same market as the money market. However, bank e-money has broken through the extension of money, that is, it can also be issued not by the central bank, but by information service providers, as was the case with several early e-money. The second breakthrough is the liquidity of bank e-money, which far exceeds that of ordinary money. Therefore, it implies a challenge to the pricing power of currency price level. For example, in overnight lending, if the same money is turned over several times in the form of electronic money, although from the traditional monetary point of view, nothing has happened, but from the perspective of virtual money circulation speed, it has actually changed the conditions of money price level
credit information currency
stock is the most typical credit information currency. Its essence is virtual and it is a kind of virtual currency with personalized characteristics. It is the most realistic foundation of the current virtual economy. Stock market and derivative financial instrument market constitute a large-scale and unified virtual money market. They are not only based on entity business, but also supported by a wide range of information services such as trust business and insurance business. The so-called unified market refers to that the market as a whole can be exchanged with the money market at the overall level of national income. Historically, only when money forms a unified market, that is, the main body of the national economy is monetized, can the adjustment of money quantity and interest rate on the national economy be discussed. The same is true for the virtual economy. This issue is not without dispute. Although the scale of the virtual economy is several times larger than that of the real economy, a large part of the real economy has not entered the unified market. If the game currency is compared with stocks, its progress in this respect is far from satisfactory. Only through the two stages of entertainment instrialization and instrial entertainment, it is possible to reach the level of unified market
analyzing the stock market and derivative financial instrument market, the biggest difference between the stock market and the general money market is that its circulation speed cannot be directly determined by the central bank. For example, as a virtual currency, the price level of stock index can not be directly determined by the central bank like the interest rate, but by the so-called "confidence" of people. The fundamentals of the central bank and the real capital market can only indirectly determine the stock market, not directly. So I think the stock market is an information market, not a money market
compared with the mature virtual money market, the main characteristics of the stock market are incomplete. The stock market integrates the noise at all reference points (i.e. indivial gain and loss values) into a unified reference value, which is combined with the standard value (utility value on the basis and general equilibrium value) to form the continuous fluctuation of the market around the utility value. Although it is different from the money market with the central bank as the center for orderly centripetal movement, it is not different from the money market. From the point of view of the real virtual money market, the characteristic of this market is the incommensurable personalized fixed value. In this sense, the centralized stock market has not achieved this function, and the independent role of the stock market as the so-called "casino" has not been played. Thirdly,
the fundamental function of personalized credit voucher
virtual currency is to synthesize value on the spot of personality, rather than to determine a rational value in isolation at an equilibrium point separated from the real world. The significance of virtual currency is to establish a value system centered on the final consumer. After the full realization of virtual currency, the single currency with general equivalent function will tend to be backward. Game currency is the experimental field of virtual currency at a higher stage, and it is difficult to be a major task. The ideal virtual currency is the value symbol of the real world. In the general equivalent exchange, the specific use value and the corresponding subject of the specific use value, namely the non-homogeneous needs and personalized needs of people, are completely filtered out. Virtual currency will change all this, through the virtual way, people's heterogeneous needs and personalized needs will be anchored to the fundamentals by indivial reference point, and the value will be synthesized. Therefore, virtual currency must have two sides, one is to have the function of commodity exchange, the other is to have the function of barter. Through the former to overcome the relativity and subjectivity of value, through the latter to achieve personalized value confirmation. In order to achieve this goal, virtual currency must realize a huge transformation, which is to transform to dialogue system and become interactive currency. The bargaining here is aimed at the level of currency price. Recall that the transformation from text to dialogue, which has been realized for decades, is the direction of the transformation of virtual currency. The value of game currency is uncertain. When people exchange game currency, it is uncertain whether the ultimate happiness they may get is above or below the currency value until they participate in the game. The game is a dialogue process. Of course, various value-added functions of game currency have not been developed in combination with personalized information services. If this kind of value-added business is fully developed, game currency will not be used because of the different businesses providing services, which may become an advantage over stocks
a fully personalized virtual currency may be a kind of currency card with additional information, and its value is to be confirmed. Virtual currency with specific undetermined function and resial value, on the one hand, its information can have room for reinterpretation like text, on the other hand, it has the potential of karaoke like redevelopment. Its information value has an open interface and can be added again. If they are exchanged in the secondary market like the stock market, they may float up and down in the basic par value with their personalized information, and they will have more attractiveness like stocks. Game currency only has the function of value circulation, but not the function of market platform, so it is only an imperfect virtual currency. The reason is the lack of corresponding instrial base
According to the white paper, the global borderless Libra coin has three cores: blockchain based, real asset guarantee and independent association governance. In other words, Libra coin is a "stable currency" guaranteed by the real asset reserve. Each Libra coin will have a basket of currencies or assets of corresponding value for trust endorsement, which is supervised by the founding members of Libra coin Association, and each founding member is responsible for running a verifier node. Facebook believes that there are still 1.7 billion alts in the world who are not exposed to the financial system and cannot enjoy formal financial services, and the current financial transaction costs are too high, so this pattern needs to be broken. According to its assumption, Libra is a stable currency and a super sovereign digital currency. By issuing "Libra coin", we will explore the establishment of a simple, borderless currency and financial infrastructure for billions of people
First of all, Libra, as a virtual currency, is the anchor of a basket of currencies and promises to exchange with legal tender at a ratio of 1:1. This is not only better than the network "cryptocurrency" not linked to fiat currency, but also more stable than the stable currency linked to single currency, which is an upgraded version of digital stable currency. Its mission is to "build a simple, borderless currency and financial infrastructure for billions of people."; Libra is a stable currency supported by a basket of currencies (reserves) and managed by an independent association (registered in Switzerland) running on the blockchain platform
offshore RMB exchange rate USDCNH: the so-called offshore RMB market is the market for Renminbi deposits and loans outside the Chinese mainland.
the pricing mechanism of RMB exchange rate in domestic market is different from that in offshore market
the exchange rate between RMB and foreign currency in China is still not completely free, and the exchange of RMB and foreign currency needs to meet the regulatory conditions of safe. Both of them are based on real demand, so the exchange rate is more determined by the supply and demand of RMB and foreign currency under the background of real demand
the RMB exchange rate in the offshore market is not subject to domestic regulation. The transaction is free convertibility and market-oriented pricing. It not only includes the principle of overseas real demand, but also reflects the speculators' speculative demand. Therefore, the RMB exchange rate outside China will be different from that inside China, and sometimes it will be quite different
however, the pricing power of RMB exchange rate is still in China, so although there may be a price difference between domestic and foreign exchange rates, the price difference will not be too big, and the too big price difference will not last for too long. The reason is that if there is a price difference at home and abroad, domestic customers can use RMB cross-border settlement method to choose a better overseas exchange rate for foreign exchange settlement and sales under the background of convenient RMB cross-border settlement. Such arbitrage transaction will result in the domestic foreign exchange gap being wiped out.
