So far, it has issued five sets of RMB, forming a multi variety and multi series monetary system of paper money and metal money, ordinary commemorative money and precious metal commemorative money

at the end of 2013, the central bank and other five ministries and commissions jointly issued the bitcoin risk notice, in which bitcoin was clearly defined as a special Internet commodity, and people could buy and sell freely at their own risk, denying its monetary attribute. At this stage, financial institutions are not allowed to provide bitcoin related services. The transaction platform supporting its transaction must do a good job in anti money laundering< In an interview with the Boao Forum, President Yang Xiaochuan compared bitcoin to a tradable asset like a stamp, which the central bank has no right to ban
since 2013, popular virtual currencies include bitcoin, Laite coin, Fuyuan coin, doggy coin, reborn coin, etc.
On January 18, the business management department of the people's Bank of China issued the "notice on carrying out self inspection and rectification of payment services for illegal virtual currency transactions", which made it clear that the unit and its branches are strictly prohibited from providing services for virtual currency transactions, and took effective measures to prevent payment channels from being used for virtual currency transactions
the notice also shows that for the discovered virtual currency transactions, the payment channels of relevant transaction entities should be closed in time, and the funds to be settled should be properly handled
reported and quoted pan Gongsheng as saying in the memo: "we should always maintain a high pressure on the virtual money market, strictly prevent the risk of virtual money from gathering again, and eliminate the potential risks in the bud." He also said that the national and local authorities should ban the places that provide bitcoin and other virtual currency centralized trading, as well as the so-called "wallet" service providers that provide guarantee and clearing services for virtual currency centralized trading, and indivials or institutions that provide market maker services for centralized trading
There are two reasons for the prohibition of virtual currency trading by the state:
1. The price fluctuates violently and the consumer protection is lacking:
virtual currency is the proct of network, and the digital information flowing in the network is beyond everyone's control. The code of cyberspace is the basis of the operation of virtual currency, investors can only operate through the front-end interface, seemingly "control" the virtual currency. The operator of the virtual currency service organization may become the actual controller of the virtual currency through the control code
bitcoin and other so-called "virtual currencies" lack a clear value basis, the market is full of speculative atmosphere, the price fluctuates violently, and investors blindly follow suit, which is easy to cause capital losses
2. Evade supervision and become the "accomplice" of criminal activities:
bitcoin is popular as a payment tool in the so-called "dark web" world“ The "dark net" is full of all kinds of serious criminal activities. One of the original intentions of the invention of bitcoin is to evade regulation. It has the characteristics of anonymity and convenient cross-border flow, and has become the preferred tool of "underground economy"
the existence of bitcoin and exchanges and other instrial chains has constructed a illegal financial market for asset transfer and financing in addition to legal currency, increased the difficulty of regulatory authorities in managing financial security and stability, and promoted regulatory arbitrage and financial crimes. The risks and social security risks it brings to the financial market are far higher than its innovative value
