Changes in the number of bitcoin issues

1. The concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto on November 1, 2008, and was officially born on January 3, 2009[ 1] &# 160; According to the idea of Nakamoto, the open source software is designed and released, and the P2P network on it is constructed. Bitcoin is a virtual encrypted digital currency in the form of P2P. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency institution to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. 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.

The total number of bitcoins is 21 million

in 2009, when bitcoin was born, block reward was 50 bitcoins. Ten minutes after its birth, the first 50 bitcoins were generated, and the total amount of money at this time is 50. Then bitcoin grew at a rate of about 50 every 10 minutes. When the total amount reaches 10.5 million (50% of 21 million), the block reward will be halved to 25

when the total amount reaches 15.75 million (5.25 million new output, i.e. 50% of 1050), the block reward will be further halved to 12.5. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to about 21 million

monetary characteristics

1. Decentralization: bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, and the whole network is composed of users without a central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom

2. Global circulation: bitcoin can be managed on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where you are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or collect bitcoin

3. Exclusive ownership: private key is needed to control bitcoin, which can be stored in any storage medium in isolation. No one can get it except the user himself

4. Low transaction cost: bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but a transaction fee of about 1 bitfen will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster transaction execution

5, no hidden cost: as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin has no cumbersome limit of quota and proceres. If you know the other party's bitcoin address, you can pay

6. Cross platform mining: users can explore the computing power of different hardware on many platforms

3. Bitcoin, the process of mining is to constantly seek the special solution of this equation system through a huge amount of calculation. This equation system is designed to have only 21 million special solutions, so the upper limit of bitcoin is 21 million.

4. On November 1, 2008, a self styled Satoshi Nakamoto posted a research report on a secret cryptography discussion group, which expounded his new idea of e-money bitcoin came out

A large number of users, including China, will lose all their money. At this time, the price of bitcoin is 128 US dollars
in June 2013, Netcom said that the United States will withdraw from qe3, deflationary bitcoin and quantitative easing monetary policy, which are the relationship between the two

5. The upper limit of bitcoin is not the exact figure of 21 million. 21 million is calculated according to the mining rules
in the first four years, 50 pieces were g out every ten minutes: 50 * 6 * 24 * (365 * 4 + 1) = 10519200 pieces
in the second four years, 25 pieces were g out every ten minutes: 25 * 6 * 24 * (365 * 4 + 1) = 5259600 pieces
according to the sum formula of infinite equal ratio sequence, the final total amount is infinitely close to 21038400 pieces (10519200 * 2)
as long as the mining rules are not changed, the number of bitcoins will never exceed 21038400

6. Hello, let me answer your question

1 this question is very important. The foreign exchange market is different from the stock market. It has no exchange and is a discrete global trading mode. The essence of the foreign exchange market is the inter-bank market, that is, the market in which the world's major banks trade with each other. Because the trading volume between them is very large, ordinary investors can not participate in it, so there is a platform business. These platform providers build a bridge between retail investors and the interbank market. When retail investors place an order, they are actually trading with the platform business, and the platform business uses the funds of retail investors to trade with the bank. So, it is the platform that provides you with margin service, and the margin will stay on the platform for the time being. As for the economic line you mentioned, it is actually a secondary agent. They are the agents of platform companies, so they charge more commissions

2 your reasoning is a little complicated, so you should try to use the common measurement standards of foreign exchange instry for calculation. Take Europe and the United States as an example, assuming that the exchange rate is 13000, we call one ten thousandth of the exchange rate 1 point. One hand contract is US $100000. Suppose our account is US $10000 and the margin is 1%. Now we buy a first-hand contract with a margin of $1000. At this time, the margin balance is $9000. If the exchange rate drops by one point, our balance will decrease by 10 US dollars. If the exchange rate drops 900 points, the margin balance becomes zero. These changes are reflected in your account, and they are all immediate
in fact, when the margin balance is close to zero, it is generally about 10 points, that is, about $100, the platform will force you to close the position, that is, the so-called burst position. At this point, you have about $1100 left in your account. In actual transactions, margin is used to prevent sudden major changes in the market price, generally will not be used. Therefore, there is no need to worry about platform providers

however, in order to win customers, the mainstream platforms often adopt more radical methods. When the margin balance is zero, they still keep the position of retail investors and start to lose margin. Take the above example as an example, the margin balance begins to turn negative. For every 1 point decline in the market, the margin decreases by $10. When the margin remains about 10 points, that is, about $100, the platform will forcibly close the position. At this time, the account balance is only about $100, which is a complete burst

I think the above answers your third question at the same time

4 if you buy Canada Japan, platform vendors actually need to use US dollars as a bridge to exchange for two times, so the gap between Canada and Japan is the sum of Canada and the United States and Japan, or even larger. However, as a retail investor, you don't have to think too much about it. It's all the work of the platform Shang Dynasty. You just need to know that if you add one day fluctuation point, 0,1 contract fluctuation is 1 / (0.01 * US Japan exchange rate) US dollars

however, it is worth mentioning that the euro / yen exchange rate in the cross section is quite special, because the trading volume is very large, it is often direct trading, and it does not need to be mediated by the US dollar, so the currency spread is relatively small on many platforms

I hope I can help you.

8. This is an innovative privately issued currency, regardless of its possible future value. At the beginning of its issuance in 2009, 1 US dollar = 1300 bitcoins were converted into RMB 1 yuan = 220 bitcoins. One bitcoin was about 0.0045 yuan, and yesterday's peak was close to 6000 yuan = one bitcoin. six thousand ÷ 0045 = 1.33 million. In other words, bitcoin has increased by 1.33 million times in five years since it was issued

9. At present, the circulation of bitcoin is about 11 million

bitcoin does not have a centralized issuer, but is calculated and generated by network nodes. Anyone can participate in the proction of bitcoin

but bitcoin is not issued in unlimited quantity, and its circulation will be controlled by software algorithms. According to relevant algorithms, the more bitcoins there are, the more difficult it will be to make new ones.
