Which virtual currency bubble?
virtual currency is the currency used for electronic circulation. Now the scope of virtual currency is very large, including q-coin, bitcoin and so on. With the development of digital currency, virtual currency is becoming more and more abundant, which may become the mainstream in the future. For example, BTC, EOS, bcbot and so on are not only virtual currencies, but also algorithms, landing projects and technologies
virtual currency is mainly issued by online game service providers to purchase game props, such as equipment, clothing, etc. But at present, the use of virtual currency has gone far beyond this category. Virtual currency can be used to buy game cards, physical objects and download services of some movies and software

real risk
as the proct of e-commerce, virtual currency has begun to play an increasingly 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
fraud
the private transaction of online virtual currency has realized the two-way circulation between virtual currency and RMB to a certain extent. The activity of these traders is to buy all kinds of virtual currencies and procts at a low price, and then sell them at a high price to earn profits. With the increase of such transactions, there are even virtual mints. In addition to the virtual currency provided by the main company, there are also some people who specialize in "virtual coin making" to obtain virtual currency by playing games and then resell it to other players
Taking Wenzhou as an example, there are about seven or eight such "virtual mints" with four or five hundred practitioners. This not only creates a bubble for the price of the virtual currency itself, but also causes trouble for the normal sale of the issuing company. It also provides a platform for selling and collecting money and money laundering for various cyber crimes. p>

in modern financial system, the issuers of money are generally central banks, which are responsible for the management and supervision of money operation. As the equivalent exchange goods used to replace the real currency circulation on the Internet, the virtual currency on the Internet is essentially the same as the real currency. The difference is that the issuers are no longer central banks, but Internet companies
if the development of virtual currency makes it form a unified market, each company can exchange with each other, or virtual currency is integrated and unified, and all of them are based on the same standard and price, then in a sense, virtual currency is currency, which is likely to form a threat impact on the traditional financial system or economic operation
reference: network virtual currency
China does not have the first legal virtual currency. At the end of 2013, the central bank and other five ministries and commissions issued the bitcoin risk notice, which clearly defined bitcoin as a special Internet commodity, and the public can buy and sell it freely on the premise of taking their own risks
other digital confidential currencies are also suitable, such as Laite coin, the ancestor of Shanzhai coin, Fuyuan coin for business points in jewelry instry, dog coin for small reward, etc. But although virtual currency exists legally in our country, it is illegal to cheat under the guise of virtual currency

network problems
in addition to direct cash, virtual currency can also be purchased by SMS, internet transfer and fixed telephone recharge. These ways of purchase not only provide convenience for users, but also have many risks
such as embezzlement of telephone recharge and purchase by minors. In addition, virtual currency does not have the anti-counterfeiting technology of real currency. Computer hackers may use its security loopholes to proce counterfeit currency. Relevant personnel of the State Administration for Instry and Commerce said that virtual currency transaction is a business behavior derived from the Internet era, and there are no clear legal provisions to regulate it, and there are no items related to virtual goods transaction in the scope of instrial and commercial registration
but when the virtual property transaction graally employs people, places are fixed, transaction profits are clear, and has the nature of operation, it may involve market order and tax issues. Even game operators have no ability to control. There are a large number of "counterfeit banknote makers" in the network. Take the winger who is mainly engaged in chess and card online games as an example, the purchasing power of his online currency has shrunk by nearly 40% in one year. Many people point out that such inflation will only damage netizens and make them lose confidence in the Internet

Not long ago, the total value of bitcoin in the world exceeded one billion US dollars for the first time. For a pure virtual currency without the support of a central bank or other authority, this is a remarkable achievement. But this is also temporary: we are experiencing a bitcoin bubble, and the bursting of bubbles is only a matter of time. P>
says bubbles are doomed to break down for several reasons. The first is: because it is a bubble, no matter what charts, if it grows into the above picture, it will usher in tears at the end of a certain moment. but there is a deeper reason - bitcoin is a strange mixture of goods and money. The commodity value of bitcoin is generated by its monetary value, but as its commodity attribute becomes more and more significant, its use as currency becomes smaller
the distrust of existing financial institutions by these people, including Nakamoto, is no exception. What makes Nakamoto different is that he turns this distrust into a philosophy, which is the most important driving force behind the bitcoin project. When he introced bitcoin to the world in February 2009, Nakamoto boasted that his new currency had achieved "complete decentralization and there was no credible party". Moreover, he explained in great detail the problems that he thought should be solved urgently:
"the fundamental problem of traditional currency is the trust needed to make it work. We must trust the central bank not to devalue the currency, but the history of fiat money is full of betrayal of this trust. We have to trust that banks will save our money and transfer them electronically, but they still lend money without reservation in the rising credit bubble. We have to trust them with our privacy and trust them not to let impostors take money out of our accounts. "
Nakamoto is not paranoid: what he said here is the same as Warren; What Mr. Buffett said in his letter to shareholders in 2012 doesn't make much difference
" under the current monetary system, known investment types include money market funds, bonds, mortgage loans, bank savings, and other forms. Most of these money based investments are considered "safe.". In fact, they are among the most dangerous assets
"in the past century, these investment methods have destroyed the purchasing power of investors in many countries, even if they can continue to harvest principal and interest in a timely manner. In addition, this terrible consequence will reappear again and again. Governments determine the final value of money, and systemic factors occasionally bias them toward policies that trigger inflation. From time to time, such policies get out of control
"even in the United States, which strongly appeals for currency stability, the depreciation of the US dollar since I took over the management of Berkshire in 1965 has reached an alarming 86%. What you could buy for a dollar back then costs as much as seven dollars today. "
if you hold dollars, you have to trust the US government not to destroy your wealth. By contrast, bitcoin is built on distrust - it's designed to be a "everyone for himself" currency. In vain, because of his stupidity, he was criticized by many people in the bitcoin world: what did he think of storing his e-wallet on an Internet connected windows machine
but even when using bitcoin, people have to trust others in the end - and the objects they trust often turn out to be unreliable Mybitcoin was found to be a fraud afterwards; MT GOx encounters hackers. At present, coinlab is a popular emerging bitcoin company, but considering the benefits of hacking these companies, and the law enforcement agencies have no interest in such criminals, they always face the risk of losing customers' property
zero trust
this degree of distrust is not only a feature but also a loophole compared with the special coin - in fact, most of us are willing to outsource the task of hoarding wealth to a large trusted organization, rather than hiding $1000 under the black volcanic rock in the stone wall of the old oak root, Or a $90000 100 dollar bill wrapped in aluminum foil and hidden in the refrigerator. Managing bitcoin yourself is risky and requires high computer skills. But the trust needed to entrust one's own bitcoin to others is exactly what bitcoin aims to avoid
bitcoin's inherent suspicion of financial institutions not only distinguishes it from legal tender, but also makes it different from other virtual currencies, such as Facebook coin in the United States, Q coin in China and linden coin in the world's largest virtual game second life. All of these virtual currencies are closely monitored by the company that invented them, and are of little value outside these particular economies
some of these virtual currencies are about the same order of magnitude as bitcoin in scale, although it is difficult to compare them in the same sense for example, the annual revenue of Facebook coin is about one billion US dollars, and the market of Q coin in 2007 was so big that the people's Bank of China intervened and called on companies to stop trading with Q coin. In the recent bubble, bitcoins traded for more than $30 million a day, and most of the time they traded more than $5 million a day. The annual turnover will be about $2 billion, so long as the bubble will not burst. strong>
