How to design and make virtual currency
in the era of stand-alone games, the protagonist accumulates money by knocking down the enemy, entering the gambling house to win money, etc., which can be used to buy Herbs and equipment, but only in his own game console; The special currency issued by the portal website or instant messaging service provider is used to purchase the services within the website
there are four types of virtual currency in the market:
1. Game currency developed by game operators for players to use as a trading medium in online games
2. A special virtual currency issued by the portal or instant messaging tools for use in the operating cyberspace
3. Interactive virtual currency, which can be used in the issuing entity of virtual currency and can purchase goods and services from non issuing entities
4. Based on cryptography and modern network P2P technology, a special electronic and digital network cryptocurrency is proced through complex mathematical algorithm
the instrialization of virtual money will form a virtual money market. If the emergence of the stock market is the proct of the combination of instrial capital and financial capital, then virtual currency will be the proct of the combination of service capital and financial capital. Modern service instry, especially personalized modern information service instry, will become the instrial foundation of personalized virtual currency
the personalized virtual money market is different from the stock market and derivative financial instrument market. The latter is more established for the needs of instrialization, which is also reflected in meeting the needs of the so-called modern service instry; The instrial foundation of the former is closely related to the demand of informatization
The future of the tertiary instry is different from the service instry, its development direction is the post-modern service instry, that is, the experience instry, that is, more personalized instry to meet the development needs of spirit, culture and entertainment. The stock market will make more use of information to guide the rational investment of instry and service instry, while the personalized virtual money market will make more use of information to guide the perceptual consumption of experience instryif you want to create a virtual currency like bitcoin, Ruitai coin and Qianjin card, you need to make some efforts. First of all, these coins need card method and a downloadable wallet. The application scenarios of this kind of currency have been determined. At the same time, you need to create a secure and reliable trading platform.
Several ideas for reference
-
you need to set a conversion exchange rate for forum points
-
if you issue a counterfeit coin directly, you can get it if you post something
-
the currency of the forum is issued through the second token agreement and then distributed weekly
-
develop the trading platform in the forum
Every other time, the bitcoin system will generate a random code on the system node. All computers in the Internet can search for this code. Whoever finds this code will generate a block and get a bitcoin. This process is often called mining
at present, one bitcoin is divided into eight decimal places based on the current data structure, that is, 0.00000001btc. The smallest unit of bitcoin g by miners is 0.00000001btc
generally speaking, bitcoin is like a gold mountain with a total amount of 21 million gold coins. To get it, players need to use the computing power of the computer to calculate a group of numbers according to the existing algorithms
extended data:
unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, And the use of cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of money circulation
the decentralized feature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially control the value of bitcoin by mass manufacturing. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity
when you see how complicated it is to make physical banknotes, it's easy to understand why most people don't try to print new forms of currency every day, but it's also very easy for people with only basic programming level to make new digital currency
programming is not the only step to create a new digital currency. Here are three cryptocurrency manufacturers giving you five steps to follow
1. Using the community to cultivate money
Chris Ellis, an entrepreneur from London and an activist in the feather money community, believes that when you consider making a new digital currency, it's easy to assume that the first step is to start currency programming, which is actually wrong
"the first step is to find a community and build a currency around the community, rather than expecting people to show up after building a currency," Ellis said. "It has to meet the needs of the community and be related to their cultural heritage and background."
Feather coin was created by Peter Bushnell in April 2013. Bushnell resigned as head of it at brechnos college, Oxford, because he wanted to create his own people-centered currency. He made the decision after seeing on bitcoin.org, a well-known cryptocurrency website, that the existing cryptocurrencies (such as bitcoin) lack community participation and inclusiveness
since March last year, Ellis has been actively promoting and teaching people the knowledge of cryptocurrency. Although he had not met Bushnell at that time, he was also aware of the alienation and isolation on the bitcoin forum
"these forums are very technology oriented and are not welcome for newcomers or minorities, and usually smaller teams can better serve these newcomers or minorities," Ellis said“ The forum did not make it easier for people to participate in currency development. A lot of people in these forums come to predict prices rather than actively participate in development. "
Ellis found the cryptocurrency community based on feather coin, and he said that technological development has benefited a lot from the community
"we are a group of feather coin encryption enthusiasts, but some of them may not be so easily integrated into other communities," Ellis said. He said everyone in feather money thought it was important to show that a group of loyal people could build a stable currency. Through cooperation, a dedicated community of encryption enthusiasts can better find and solve vulnerabilities and security threats. For example, the feather coin coding community has successfully resisted 51% of attacks
the establishment of such protective measures and the promotion of currency development can make the currency more legitimate and more easily trusted in the eyes of the public. But if the participants are all passive observers who are only for their own interests, it will be troublesome
2. Programming, for the long-term benefit
surprisingly, every currency developer I talked to said the same thing: "programming cryptocurrency is usually the least time-consuming part of the process. This is because all the cryptocurrencies on the market are based on the open source code of bitcoin or lightcoin provided on GitHub. "
Peter otbach, one of the founders of coino, said: "it doesn't take long to create. It could be only one day, "the company claims to be the fastest cryptocurrency on the market, with a maximum trading time of just 50 seconds“ To start programming, you just need to know C + + to create your own functions in it. "
according to Colin Evans, the developer of quark cryptocurrency, it may take longer than a day“ In terms of programming, the most complex steps may be related to the complexity of the parameters you plan to have in the blockchain, "Evans said“ For example, many currencies just use and the lettercoin code, but quark has a new hash algorithm - that is, it is separate from bitcoin and lettercoin - so if you want to change it, it will be the most difficult one. " In this case, it may take months to program cryptocurrency. However, Evans pointed out that if developers just reuse GitHub's code and change some simple parameters, any competent programmer can do it "in 30 minutes."
but just thinking that anyone with C + + skills can make their own cryptocurrency doesn't mean that one day there will be as many kinds of currencies as IOS applications. "Feather coin is actually a branch of Leyte coin," Ellis said“ It starts with a minimum number of parameter changes, because we think the most important feature of money is viability. "
however, the feather coin team noticed that some of the previous currencies did not last long, because they included a new function, which enables investors to make profits through short-term speculation. However, the team was often unable to manage the project as planned for a long time, resulting in the failure of the project. In other words, those failed currency developers may want to create cryptocurrencies and make profits in the short term, rather than in the long term, which is doomed from the beginning
Ellis said: "you have to be responsible for fixing defects, and you have to make a commitment when you launch the currency, and you have a responsibility to inform people of the risks and protect their property." if you can't, then no one will use your currency all the time
3. Let miners appear on the stage
once you develop currency, you need to spread the information so that people can start to excavate the currency, make people aware of its existence, and hopefully start to get some value in the eyes of miners and users. This is where cryptocurrency manufacturers can't think like programmers, but how humans put trust (and value) in things
Ellis of feather coin explains: "a good start is half done, so it's about building trust, expressing your vision and intentions to miners, who have the hardware they need, and giving them the opportunity to meet future opportunities“ You have to be honest and respect people's expectations and tolerance of risk, which many people value
"overheated money sales can be counterproctive, including new features designed just to try or stand out. Markets can test courage and determination. You need a group of loyal, loyal miners who will deal with the deal even when prices plummet, because they believe in the end result. It depends on good communication and team building
"many cryptocurrencies fail because they underestimate" software ". They think that technology can solve all problems. And then it's not what they think it is. You have to be good at being aware of what needs to be done and be ready to do what others don't want to do. "
4. Know your business
if you've done that. You've conceptualized a good cryptocurrency and brought the right team together to develop and nurture it in your own way. You have spread the news on the cryptocurrency forum, and a large number of miners are actively trying to dig your currency. The next step is to market your currency so that all miners can use it. This is not a small feat. After all, you need to convince indivials and businesses that these currencies created by themselves have value and can be traded like traditional trustworthy currencies
"it's a confidence building process," Ellis said“ It takes good management and time to work out what you really believe and advocate. People will be more willing to buy money based on your motives than your actions, so once you are confident, you have to start discussing your money with friends, businessmen, Internet forums and social media. "
Peter otbach agrees with this view that "to start marketing, you need to find the exact target group," he said, "at first you can start with the cryptocurrency market, because people there know the currency, and you will see their first reaction. It's going to be more difficult after that. You need to convince a lot of people who don't even know what cryptocurrency is, so you have to use money as a payment solution for online stores to attract their attention. "
"I want to add that it's not just about ecating them with facts," Ellis said. "It's about encouraging them to learn and discover their strengths. Money is a classified account. It is a tool that people use to achieve their goals and meet their needs. Knowing this will help you make great progress in marketing. "
Ellis believes that the key to getting merchants to accept money is to understand their different views“ Different stakeholders have the same rules. The difference is that miners are speculative and businessmen are more conservative. " He pointed out that businessmen have three main purposes: to make money, to save money and to raise their awareness“ If we can bring them customers and increase sales while recing the cost of payment, the rest of the job is to persevere and make it as easy as possible for them to start working. "
5. Conclusion
from a professional point of view or a traditional point of view, the last step in the journey of making cryptocurrency is to rule the world with money. But given that no currency has dominated the world for 5000 years, no matter what bitcoin enthusiasts in Silicon Valley say - any cryptocurrency
moreover, cryptocurrency domination "is not necessarily the goal," Ellis said“ Currency can be local. In fact, we think feather currency is a local currency that can serve the global market. "
there may be a real market for emerging cryptocurrencies: local currencies for certain communities, cities, events, venues and people. Build around like-minded consumer groups, so that they can trade quickly and freely, and provide security for the important goods and services in their lives. You don't have to rely on central banks and big markets to tell them that coins and paper money are valuable.
the mainstream trading platforms of bitcoin and lightcoin are very reliable both in terms of customer experience and security. Even the crowdfunding platforms such as European crowdfunding design project crowdfunding tokens with higher technical content than those so-called digital currencies.
Recently, after a sharp correction in the A-share market, the number of stocks breaking the net and breaking the market in Shanghai and Shenzhen has increased According to the statistics of Securities Daily, as of yesterday, 19 stocks in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets had fallen below the fixed price, 70 stocks had fallen below the net assets per share, and 220 stocks had fallen below the listing price.
