Asia's biggest scam virtual currency
virtual currency fraud calls 110 directly
many departments, such as the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the central office of information technology, the Ministry of public security and so on, issued risk tips, saying that some criminals, under the banner of "financial innovation" and "blockchain", absorbed funds by issuing the so-called "virtual currency", "virtual assets" and "digital assets", thus infringing the legitimate rights and interests of the public
this kind of activity is not really based on blockchain technology, but on the hype of blockchain concept, illegal fund-raising, pyramid selling and fraud. In essence, it is a Ponzi scheme of "repaying the old by borrowing the new", which is difficult to maintain the long-term operation of funds
the public should treat the blockchain rationally, not blindly believe the promises, establish a correct monetary concept and investment concept, and effectively improve the risk awareness. Report to the public security organ in time after being cheated
extended data:
the first is the obvious networking and cross-border of virtual currency. Relying on the Internet and chat tools for transactions, and using online payment tools to balance funds, the risks spread widely and spread quickly. Some lawless elements set up websites by renting overseas servers to carry out activities for domestic residents and control illegal activities remotely
some indivials claim that they have obtained the investment quota of overseas high-quality blockchain projects in the chat tool group and can invest on their behalf, which is most likely fraud. Most of these illegal funds flow overseas, which makes it very difficult to supervise and trace
followed by deception, temptation and concealment. They use hot concepts to hype, fabricate various "tall and tall" theories, and some also use celebrity "big V" platforms to publicize. They use airdrop "candy" as temptation to claim that "currency value only rises but not falls", "investment cycle is short, income is high, and risk is low", which has strong bewitching
in practice, criminals illegally make huge profits by manipulating the price trend of the so-called virtual currency, setting profit and withdrawal threshold. In addition, some criminals also issue tokens under the guise of ICO, IFO, IEO, etc., or hype virtual currency in the way of IMO under the banner of sharing economy, which has strong concealment and confusion
finally, there are many kinds of illegal risks in this kind of behavior. Through public publicity, the illegal elements attract the public to invest funds, lure investors and development personnel to join, and constantly expand the fund pool with the t of currency appreciation and development offline profits, which has the characteristics of illegal fund-raising, pyramid selling, fraud and other illegal acts

bitcoin is the most famous virtual currency. First of all, it has been seven years and eight months since its birth in 2009. From being worthless at first, it rose to 8000 yuan / piece in 2013, and even attracted Chinese aunts to join. With the regulatory policy crackdown in 2014, bitcoin once fell to about 1000 yuan, and then entered the bear market channel. It was not until the beginning of this year that a new round of bitcoin market broke out, hovering at a high of 4300 yuan / piece< However, the attitude of the regulators is clear. Whether it is genuine bitcoin, or a variety of derivative Shanzhai coins, there is no way to obtain legal living space at present. This is something we need to be clear about. If the platform goes out of business or the staff runs away, it is very likely that they will lose all their money and the losses they have suffered will not be protected by law
the promises they give you often make the participants pay money quickly. Behind them is the Ponzi scheme of "robbing the east to pay the west" + "cheating the white wolf with empty hands". They use the money of new investors to pay interest and short-term return to old investors, so as to create the illusion of making money and cheat more investment. When no new investors enter, the return of old investors collapses one after another, and it is often difficult to withdraw cash, or the website cannot be opened
in short, although the external form of virtual currency is ever-changing, it is not divorced from its essence of pyramid selling. The more investors put in, the greater the final loss, and the more serious the loss may be.
Because now people are influenced by some comments on the Internet, such as bitcoin, its value has increased many times since it came into being, people think that virtual currency should be a very promising thing, so many people follow suit
if you really have a lot of spare money, you can consider investing in some stable bonds, some science and technology innovation board and stocks, but don't invest too much in virtual currency
Ponzi scheme is a kind of fraulent investment operation. It uses investors' own money to pay investors in return, or new investors' money to pay old investors, rather than the company's own money. When there are not enough new investors to join, the Ponzi scheme will collapse, and the final investors will suffer
bitcoin is a free software project without a central management organization, so no one can make a false statement about the return on investment. Just like other major currencies, such as gold, US dollar, euro, Japanese yen, etc., bitcoin can not guarantee purchasing power and the exchange rate is free floating. The resulting volatility makes it impossible for bitcoin holders to predict profits or losses. The fact is that bitcoin is being used by thousands of users and businesses because of its useful and competitive features.
blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin. Blockchain is a series of data blocks generated by cryptography. Each data block contains the information of all bitcoin network transactions in the past ten minutes, which is used to verify the validity of the information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block. The concept was put forward in the white paper of Nakamoto, which holds the first block, namely & quot; Chuangshi Block & quot
the latest technology application of blockchain: bitcoin technology emerged in 2008, which provides a decentralized credit establishment paradigm without trust accumulation. The essence of blockchain technology is a decentralized and distributed data storage, transmission and proof method. It replaces the dependence of the Internet on the central server with data block, so that all data changes or transactions are recorded on a cloud system. In theory, it realizes the self proof of data in data transmission, This goes beyond the traditional and conventional information verification paradigm which needs to rely on the center, and reces the global & quot; Credit & quot; This kind of peer-to-peer verification will proce a kind of & quot; Basic protocol;, It is a new form of distributed artificial intelligence, which will establish a new interface and sharing interface between human brain intelligence and machine intelligence
the function of bitcoin wallet depends on the confirmation with the blockchain, and an effective inspection is called a confirmation. Usually, a transaction needs to obtain several confirmations. The lightweight (SPV) bitcoin wallet, whose client only needs to store the data related to the user's disposable transactions locally, does not store the complete blockchain
blockchain technology is the core of many encrypted digital currencies, including bitcoin, Ethereum, lightcoin, dogcoin, etc. The ways to maintain blockchain include proof of work (proof of work), proof of stake (POS), authorized proof of stake (dpos), pool verification pool, ripple consensus mechanism, etc. At present, people are exploring a more decentralized rotating witness mechanism.
virtual currency itself is not a pyramid scheme, it is just used by some criminals. Since 2013, the popular virtual currencies include bitcoin, Wright coin, Fuyuan coin, doggy coin, reborn coin and so on.
the technical content of crime means is constantly improving, the crime means are constantly renovated, the telecommunication fraud means follow up the development of science and technology, and the technical content is higher and higher. In the past, we used to mail letters and send fraulent short messages through SMS group senders, but now we use multi-agent or wireless Internet technology to maintain fraulent web pages, use foreign servers to use VoIP network phones, and use & lt; Touzhuan & quot; Technology arbitrarily set the caller ID number, deception is stronger, the ability of anti investigation is also higher. On the other hand, all kinds of scams by criminal syndicates keep up with the hot spots in the society, and the renovation is extremely fast, which makes it impossible to prevent
