The carrier of virtual currency
when it comes to virtual currency, many people may be familiar with it. But there are also many people who are not clear about the concept of virtual currency. They will think that sina u, Netease popo and Shanda Yuanbao are all part of virtual currency. What's more, they think that these so-called virtual currencies will affect the status of RMB and proce adverse effects such as virtual inflation
first of all, let's understand the two meanings of virtual currency in economics
the prototype of the first virtual currency is composed of the weights of the currencies of a country's major trading partners, which is a non-existent currency in order to maintain the stability of the country's exchange rate.
1、 7 * 24 hours trading
the trading time of digital currency is very long, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. As long as you like, you can trade whenever you want. There is no time limit
friends who have worked in stocks and futures know that stocks and futures have trading time limits. A few hours of trading time in a day is not enough. Digital currency is a real all-weather trading, which can meet the needs of friends who trade in different periods of time. You can trade whenever you are free, even on weekends, It's just so willful
Second, there is no limit on price rise and price fall.
there is no limit on price rise and price fall in the trading of digital currency, that is to say, it can rise and fall freely without any limit. You can say that there is a huge income space, but you can also think that there is too much risk. This is a matter of different opinions. There are good and bad, because the income and risk are positively related. Digital currency trading platform "currency exchange"
the price demand of the market can be truly reflected without the limit of rise and fall, because the rise and fall of the price is a very natural process. When everyone is optimistic, it will rise, and when they are not optimistic, it will fall. This is the law of price fluctuation, and the limit of rise and fall only adds human intervention to the price fluctuation to slow down the price fluctuation, But it can't really stop the price movement. Therefore, there is no limit on price fluctuation, which is the most real price fluctuation and truly meets the market demand and expectation
(3) t + 0 transaction: Generally speaking, the digital currency bought on the same day can be sold on the same day, that is, it can be sold with the buyer. It sounds very powerful. If the digital currency you buy makes money, you can sell it immediately and make it safe; If there is a little loss, you can also sell it immediately to prevent the loss from further expanding. All t + 0 trading system is really very practical, can be very flexible to deal with the hands of the position Four, two-way transaction digital currency can not only buy long, but also sell short. Most of my friends basically understand buying long and bullish, but they don't understand selling short and bearish. This is actually a reverse thinking, the key point is to judge the direction of rise and fall accurately, at the same time, there is a price difference to earn on the linefor example, we can buy at a low price and then sell at a high price to earn the price difference (buy long and be bullish); You can also sell at a high price first, and then come back at a low price to earn a difference (sell short and put). The operation steps are almost the same. It's just a direction of business
Five, margin system margin trading is to pay a part of the margin to buy the relevant digital currency, just like when you buy a house, you only need to pay a certain down payment to buy the house. This is the legendary leveraged trading, but at present only some platforms have leveraged trading. Margin trading (Leveraged trading) has achieved the goal of "small, broad and big", maximizing the efficiency of capital utilization, expanding both profits and losses. We can treat it dialecticallynetwork virtual currency can be roughly divided into
the first category is familiar game currency. In the era of stand-alone games, the protagonist accumulates money by knocking down the enemy, entering the gambling house to win money, and using these to buy Herbs and equipment, but it can only be used in his own game console. At that time, there was no "market" between players. Since the establishment of Internet portal and community, the realization of game networking, virtual currency has a "financial market", players can trade game currency
the second type is the special currency issued by the portal website or instant messaging service provider, which is used to purchase the services in the website. The most widely used is Tencent's q-coin, which can be used to purchase membership, QQ show and other value-added services
the third kind of virtual currency on the Internet, such as bitcoin (BTC), Fuyuan coin (FTC), Wright currency (LTC), etc. bitcoin is an electronic currency proced by open-source P2P software. Some people also translate bitcoin as "bitcoin", which is a kind of network virtual currency. It is mainly used for Internet financial investment, and can also be directly used in daily life as a new currency.
bitcoin has value because it is useful as a form of currency. Bitcoin has the mathematical characteristics of money (persistence, portability, interchangeability, scarcity, separability and identifiability) rather than relying on physical characteristics (such as gold and silver) or the trust of central power (such as fiat money). In short, bitcoin is backed by mathematics. With these characteristics, a form of money to have value requires trust and use. This can be reflected in the growing number of users, businesses and start-ups. Like all currencies, the value of bitcoin comes directly from people who are willing to accept it as a means of payment, which is the only source
of course, some domestic digital currency scholars began to take bitcoin not as a kind of currency, but as a shortcut. Teacher Shaqian proposed the concept of currency business circle. Perhaps inspired by the recent emergence of a currency called Fuyuan coin in the jewelry instry, it is very innovative to use Fuyuan coin to replace the traditional business integral system.
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
At the same time, the virtual money market based on electronic information is also booming. By the end of 2014, the number of Internet users in China had reached 632 million, including 517 million registered users in the online game market and 114.48 billion yuan of sales revenue, an actual increase of 37.7% over the previous yeara 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
