Penetration test of bitcoin exchange
the key is to go to the mainstream platform
bitcoin is a kind of encrypted digital asset protected by cryptography, without the participation of centralized institutions. It has been running steadily since 2009 and has become one of the important investment targets of global investors. Many investors are very interested in bitcoin investment. The entry process of bitcoin and some investment procts is slightly different. The address of bitcoin blockchain is decentralized, so there is no account opening step. However, purchasing Mai bitcoin with bitcoin requires the assistance of some third-party platforms
at present, there are relatively large platforms in China, such as okex, fire coin and coin security. I have been in and out of money for many times in these platforms. Let's introce my experience of buying Mai bitcoin in these exchanges.
before the introction, I need to explain one premise: the security of Mai bitcoin is divided into two aspects: one is asset security, which basically won't cause any problems when I choose the three major domestic exchanges; the other is capital security, in other words, Is to rece as much as possible with the flow of black money bank card transactions. Because it's easy to freeze their bank cards, each exchange has a different strategy
1、OKEx： https://www.okex.me/buy-crypto/cny
okex is the exchange that I use the most Mai currency. I have been in okexmai currency since 18 years. Most of the time, I have had a good experience of Mai currency. I only encountered the problem of freezing okex account (not bank card freezing) once in my impression. However, OK customer service also helped me understand the freezing process very quickly. This is my first contact with OK customer service, Good attitude and high efficiency< it can be seen from the side that okex has done a lot of work in the prevention and control of black money. Moreover, in recent years, there are few card freezing incidents in okex. Today, the black money in the exchange is increasingly rampant, okex has done quite well
in terms of user experience, the function of one click Mai is more suitable for Xiao. When using this function, you don't need to select the businesses that meet the standard in the list of businesses. It's more convenient. At present, when you do activities, you will get a 20 yuan reward when you buy Mai for the first time
in addition, okex is a first-line exchange with a large user base. Mai currency supports wechat, and ZFB buys Mai with zero handling charge. If you've just come into contact with bitcoin, it's a quick and safe choice in okexmai
However, the weakness is that okex has little support for foreign currencies. Except for RMB, only the Vietnamese Dong and Indian Rupee have depth. The Mai currency entrance of other countries' currencies is only the interface of other cooperation platforms2 https://www.huobi.com/zh-cn/
the exchange's legal currency trading plate is deep enough, and there are many powerful businesses with good experience. Support the purchase of Mai bitcoin with multi currency. In addition, the process of making Mai coins is relatively smooth and can be completed in a few minutes
however, e to the good user experience of fire coin, black and gray procts will also choose fire coin as a channel for money laundering. fire coin has been updating its risk control strategy to intercept black money accounts. However, at present, it seems that the effect may not be so good, and the freezing card incident continues. Friends who pay close attention to the digital money market may understand that a large-scale freeze occurred in early June, and many users' bank cards were frozen. Therefore, we should be a little more cautious when using Mai coins on this platform, try to choose the ranked merchants, and rece the probability of being frozen.

the trading plate of currency security legal currency started late, and the accumulation was not enough. Frankly speaking, the depth and experience of legal currency trading is quite different from that of okex and fire currency< Strong>, especially the t+1 strategy of currency, which is Mai currency, will make complaints about money in a day. This system has been thrown into the trap by too many people, because this is obviously a "one size fits all" strategy with insufficient technical capability.
however, even if there are many slots, coin an is slightly better than the second and third tier exchanges in terms of asset security. Users who trade in coin an can also try to buy Mai bitcoin in coin an
finally, based on the above factors, it is suggested that okex is the first choice for Mai bitcoin, fire coin is the second choice, and coin security is not recommended
at present, the vast majority of digital currency transactions are concted in exchanges. Among the numerous exchanges, bitfinex, binance, okex and so on are well-known
However, bitcoin and other digital currencies, as decentralized assets, have to be traded in a centralized exchange, which seems to have hidden contradictions and dangers1. Problems and challenges of stock exchanges=“ //www.yuanxue365.com/en/img_fd039245d688d43fdf16c83b761ed21b0ff43bbf ">
in February 2014, Mt. GOx, the world's largest bitcoin exchange at that time, was stolen 850000 bitcoins, and the price of bitcoin suffered a" cliff "crash on that day. Later, it was revealed that Mt. GOx was in fact a thief, and only 7000 bitcoins were actually stolen
in August 2016, bitfinex, the largest U.S. dollar bitcoin trading platform, suffered a security vulnerability, resulting in the theft of 120000 bitcoins, which was worth $65 million at that time. If converted into the price in December 2017, it would be worth nearly $2 billion
on December 19, 2017, South Korea's youbit exchange was attacked by hackers and lost 4000 bitcoins, and the exchange declared bankruptcy
on December 21, 2017, the Ukrainian liqui exchange was stolen 60000 bitcoins, and the unit price of bitcoin plummeted by US $2000
in 2018, such a drama will only continue
in addition to the threat of hackers, traditional exchanges also have some inherent shortcomings, such as lack of supervision and inefficiency. The security of the exchange for investors can only rely on its own credit, and the cost of running is very low. The stock exchange is regulated at the national level, but there is no such sword of Damocles on the top of the digital currency exchange. Moreover, in an exchange, the same order can only be submitted to one exchange. After the user places an order, the funds used for the transaction will be frozen and can only wait for the completion or cancellation of the transaction. These are undoubtedly inefficient
All in all, the problems of exchanges are the problems of centralization2. Decentralization of exchanges=“ //www.yuanxue365.com/en/img_86d6277f9e2f070889a173c9e224b899a801f257 ">
(1) the progress of the exchange itself
the upgrade of security means is various. At present, the best use is cold wallet, that is, to keep the digital currency in the offline U disk. At the end of 2017, when the YouTube exchange was attacked, 75% of its assets were withdrawn into the cold purse in time to avoid greater losses. However, it seems to be a helpless way to protect the online assets by offline means. Of course, there should be many other methods, which will not be repeated here
(2) the representative of cross ledger transaction is ripple network, and the operating company is ripple labs, which is a semi centralized system. Ripple is a decentralized clearing agreement. In order to solve the high cost and delay of inter-bank clearing, its base currency is XRP. Ripple network can connect all kinds of assets, such as US dollar, RMB, Japanese yen, bitcoin, etc. to its own network. In this system, U.S. dollars or bitcoin can be converted into reborn currency, and then reborn currency can circulate freely in the network, just as a highway is built between various assets. Due to the support of major banking institutions, the reborn currency achieved nearly 300 times growth in 2017
(3) decentralized exchange
some teams try to use blockchain technology to build a decentralized exchange. This kind of decentralized exchange, to some extent, is an extension of cross ledger trading
bitshares is the most representative of early rising projects. It builds a blockchain development platform with servers scattered all over the world. Even if some of them are attacked, the system will not collapse. Anyone can transfer money and borrow money freely on this platform, and can also quickly build a centralized exchange based on this platform. In order to ensure stable value, bitstocks also require three times of digital assets as collateral. At present, bitstocks are running fairly well
later, with the development of Ethereum and smart contract, the x x protocol came into being. This is an open protocol running in the Ethereum blockchain and a decentralized exchange in the Ethereum ecosystem. The agreement has attracted many investors. At present, it has completed financing and started to build open source software tools and infrastructure. Of course, there are many competitors. Ether Delta, IDEX and oasis DEX are trying to provide similar functions. Moreover, it is a smart contract system based on Ethereum, which only supports erc20 token. If other smart contract public chains start to rise, the demand will be reced
in addition, there are some teams that are entering, such as the domestic road seal agreement, looping (LRC) in English. They adopted a design similar to the X protocol, and also introced a fast payment function similar to the lightning network. It is characterized by trying to match multiple exchanges, the user's order can be broadcast to multiple exchanges, and completed by different exchanges. Moreover, the user can still use the account funds after placing an order, and the user's behavior of transferring part or all of the funds is equivalent to partial or total cancellation. To some extent, it improves the breadth and timeliness of the transaction. However, this system seems to have damaged the "power" of the existing exchanges. Whether we can persuade everyone to play together will be a difficult problem
At present, there is still a long way to go for the construction of decentralized exchange. In 3-5 years, traditional exchange will still be the main battlefield of digital currency However, in the future, it is worth looking forward to let the decentralized digital currency get rid of the shackles of centralizationbecause the connected computers are controlled by the policy settings of the router
the most important thing is to allocate your bandwidth reasonably. In theory, if you download resources from a computer in your network segment, if your router does not allocate bandwidth, it may cause the computers in the whole network segment to get stuck on the Internet
if the distribution is reasonable and the router is powerful, then 200 computers can be easily handled.
According to a foreign media report on December 13, Beijing time, the world's largest bitcoin trading market, headquartered in Hong Kong,
"these bitcoin trading markets cross national boundaries, and there may be major transactions on systems and platforms outside the United States." "Without your knowledge, your investment funds may soon flow overseas," sec chairman Clayton said on Monday. As a result, this risk may be magnified, including that market regulators, such as the SEC, may not be able to effectively track down these bad actors or recover funds. "
this warning has at least been reflected to a certain extent in the bitcoin futures market. On Tuesday, the trading volume of bitcoin futures contract on CBOE futures exchange fell sharply, which is the second day of listing of the futures
