Why virtual currency
in the current situation, blockchain is not a mature technology. What the market values is the so-called prospect, and it will take time to improve and excavate it slowly. However, the collapse of virtual currency is just a return to its own value
in short, I think bitcoin will continue to grow slowly after falling below a certain price. The current slump is just that the funds attracted by the previous heat have discovered the characteristics of virtual currency (hacker attack, dealer trading, these two situations will probably only appear in the newly issued currency, which is determined by the characteristics of blockchain, in other words, Hackers may also attack bitcoin in the early stage, but the more people and nodes bitcoin enters, the lower the probability of this situation, and the more difficult it is to generate)
in addition, I think that a large number of people in China even don't know what bitcoin is, so they are ready to make a fortune with money.
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
it can clearly tell you that the attitude of domestic regulators is clear. Whether it is genuine bitcoin, or a variety of derivative Shanzhai virtual currency, 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
all the above are personal opinions. I hope they can help you. Thank you
(1) virtual currency based on entity
since ancient times, all "money" made of paper is called paper currency, and all countries in the world are actually paper currency. In Marx's time, paper money was only a symbol of metal money. The actual gold content of paper money was equal to the nominal gold content. When the nominal gold content was greater than the actual gold content, the price index of metal money would increase because of too many paper money. When it exceeded a certain limit, inflation would occur. Marx called these over issued bank notes without gold as guarantee virtual currency. In Keynesian era, paper money was the symbol of GDP. He defined the issue of paper money caused by making up the fiscal deficit as deficit money, and believed that the issue of paper deficit money could promote the development of proction to a certain extent, but only cause half inflation. Zhang chunjia's research in "Introction to virtual currency" also proves that paper money without precious metal and GDP guarantee will cause price rise, and this kind of money is called virtual currency
(2) virtual currency based on virtual
virtual currency is a new type of currency emerging at a certain stage of network social and economic development to meet the security and convenience needs of users. It represents the development direction of future currency existence form. It comes from the Internet, and acts as a general equivalent in the network society completely or partially. Virtual currency is a real currency with the basic attributes of currency, but it is virtual and depends on the network virtual environment. Virtual currency is born without borders, which makes it more liquid than traditional currency in the world. Virtual world corresponds to the real world. Through the exchange relationship between virtual currency and traditional currency, under certain conditions, specific virtual currency can buy physical goods, and traditional currency can also buy specific virtual goods< Second, the characteristics of virtual currency
1. Value: users get utility value by consuming the procts and services provided by operators. Virtual currency has value by providing exchange to meet the utility of consumers. The quantity of virtual currency measures the value of general goods. The issue essence of virtual currency is credit issue, which is the creditor's right of the holder to the issuer. To a certain extent, the value of this kind of claim is the right of claim
2. Virtual environment dependence. The existence of virtual currency is based on the virtual economic environment provided by the issuers and the sustainable operation of the issuers themselves. Otherwise, virtual currency has no significance.
3. Short sighted currency. As the highest price in the process of commodity exchange, the form of currency value can be regarded as the real currency. Because of the limitation of circulation scope, virtual currency can not be used as the general equivalent of all commodities; But in a certain range, it has the function of monetary value scale and circulation means. Therefore, it can be considered that virtual currency is similar to the form of money value, and it is a primary form of money, which is similar to money< The issue and circulation of virtual money is limited, but it will enlarge the money supply through the money multiplier effect, and affect the difficulty and accuracy of macroeconomic regulation and control. The issuers of virtual money need to report their circulation and circulation to the central bank, and obey the unified management of the central bank at any time
5. Virtual currency, which is issued by non-financial entities outside the financial system, aims to obtain business opportunities and competitive advantages. It is a market behavior and will inevitably lead to competition among issuers. This kind of competition will proce unfair competition behavior or obtain competitive advantage through rent-seeking, which determines the need to regulate the market behavior of the market subject according to the laws and regulations
6. Virtuality: as a kind of approximate currency, virtual currency is virtual existence if it only exists in the virtual world and can purchase the virtual property in it; If it is linked with sovereign currency, it can exist in the real world and purchase real assets, then it is a virtual thing of sovereign currency. Virtual currency is actually a series of data files existing in the computer system. It has the meaning of virtual currency only after the issuers explain the system. Therefore, the existence form of virtual currency is virtual< In general, virtual currency can purchase the procts and services provided by the issuers, and it can also be exchanged with the issuers outside the scope of issuance at a certain rate to purchase the procts of the alliance. For procts outside the alliance, virtual currency has no value significance; Similarly, when virtual currency is only authorized to buy different procts in different sales cycles, the use of virtual currency has limited application in time and scope, unlike sovereign currency, which can be completely freely exchanged
8. Separability: virtual currency has no physical form and is a digital storage information. Unlike traditional paper currency, it needs to consider the balance relationship between the circulation of main currency and subsidiary currency and the proportion of various currency values. It can be split infinitely. For example, although the total number of dark coins is only 2300, each bitcoin can be split into eight directions of ten< Although virtual currency exists in the virtual world, the process of new technological revolution has closely linked the virtual world with reality, and the virtual world has become an important part of people's spiritual life. It can promote the development of real economy, for example, a large number of entertainment application projects provide people with rich spiritual wealth and real wealth, and more and more people invest in virtual currency, which represents a trend, and the more successful ones are bitcoin, Leyte coin and the new domestic King coin; On the contrary, money laundering, gambling and network theft in the virtual world will have a negative effect on the real economy.
Virtual currency is not a real coin, but a virtual thing. Virtual currency also has its own value, because it is a kind of training for investors
they think that some virtual currencies will have a great market, so at this time, as an investor, unique vision is very important. If you enter too late, then the virtual currency may not have any value. If you enter too early, it may not be what you expect. So at this time, the entry time is very important
So virtual currency can also make us grow rapidly, which is the judgment of the overall situation and the learning of knowledge. So virtual currency, for us, is a kind of income. Of course, we don't know how much this kind of income is in the early stage. Secondly, it enables us to learn quickly and improve our knowledge literacy, and it can also learn through continuous practice and combine practice with learning. These are exactly what we need to do, He also plays the role of supervisionThe main background of net currency is the difficulty of domestic micro electronic payment. Online game operators use this channel is not cheap vouchers to charge fees. Originally, only RMB was allowed to be exchanged for net currency, but reverse exchange was not allowed. However, with the development of online game instry, people spontaneously exchange various kinds of online currency, and even use online currency to buy physical procts or services that only RMB can buy, forming a purchasing power similar to currency. The boundary between virtual currency and real currency is graally blurred
in fact, in countries with developed financial environment, virtual currency has appeared for a long time, and its purpose is to make profits. For example, the virtual currency "Wangdou" first introced by beenz. Beenz has reached an agreement with MasterCard that consumers can not only save their online beans into smart cards, but also use them in traditional stores. This business model is to sell virtual net beans to some websites for 1 cent each, and then send them to netizens or let them win through various ways. These virtual currencies can be consumed as cash in online stores. In the end, beenz will buy it back from the website operator for 0.5 cents each for a profit. In 2000, there were about 750 million beenz beans in circulation, equivalent to 60 or 70 million yuan. It was also at that time that China's online currency appeared. China bonus provided virtual currency to consumers in the form of points. Points accumulated to a certain amount, can be used to exchange phone cards, network cards, T-shirts and other prizes
in online games, virtual goods such as virtual gold coins, virtual equipment, virtual animals and plants, and virtual people have great attraction for players, which promotes the consumption of these virtual goods. However, e to the backwardness of domestic electronic payment methods and security concerns, players often use cash in advance to buy the virtual currency issued by operators, Then use these vouchers to buy virtual goods online. As long as the content of the game is attractive enough, players will buy the virtual currency issued by the game operator through various channels. The development of online game instry has led to the surge of virtual currency types and circulation
in order to gather popularity, expand the number of game users, and improve the interest and loyalty of players, all game operators provide a considerable amount of free virtual currency, and players can win virtual currency through the game process. Therefore, online game operators actually have unlimited rights to issue virtual currency. If virtual money is only used to buy virtual goods, because the supply of virtual goods is artificially set, and the manufacturing time can be almost ignored, even if there are transactions between different types of virtual money, it will not have any impact on the real economy. However, if virtual currency can be used to buy real goods and services, excessive issuance will certainly cause inflation. At this time, whether the virtual currency is converted into real currency is not important
many domestic network enterprises have broken through the boundary between the virtual economy and the real economy. For example, Netease popo rewards users with money according to their online time. This virtual currency can pay for SMS. The exchange rate in this application can be calculated with the payment capacity of a short message worth 1000 yuan equal to 0.4 yuan; In addition, it can also be used as a voucher for purchasing physical goods in Netease mall. Holders of Shanda point coin can buy paid download services on the Internet. In addition to the company's paid services, q-coin can also be used to purchase other game point cards, virtual goods, and even some video and software download services
the emergence of money is an abstract unit of quantity for the convenience of exchanging different resources. If there are enough people to recognize the value of a virtual currency, it may become a substitute unit of material exchange. For example, with the popularity of QQ, Q coin has graally become a circulating equivalent exchange unit. Adam Smith, a famous economist, used barter to explain the origin of money in 1776: "the armor of Diomedes is only worth 9 cows, while the armor of glaucus is worth 100 cows. In Abyssinia, salt is a common medium of Commerce and trade; More than 200 years later, many people are exchanging various kinds of game currency for real life needs, and the Internet world has begun to dece the origin of currency again
1. The strength and technology of the operation and development technical team can not keep up with each other. In addition to the problem that cannot be solved, it will eventually die
2. The level of public relations promotion operation team, because many Shanzhai coins are homogeneous, the difference is only the so-called propaganda culture
3. If the original intention of the development and operation team is just to make money, it will not take long
4. Is there a strong community member to promote its development voluntarily? There is a classic saying on the Internet: "losers win the world."
5. The overall strength of the development and operation team is strong, and the currency has survived for a longer time. Recently, Fuyuan coin, which is similar to business points, emerged in the jewelry instry, is an example. It is legally registered in California, the United States, a domestic corporatized Trading platform, and its information is open and transparent.
