1. The advantages of bitcoin are exaggerated: About decentralization, no transaction costs and anti inflation
it is true that bitcoin has various advantages over paper money, but these advantages have been over interpreted. First of all, bitcoin is a kind of decentralized currency, which will not have the same risk of central bank controlling money supply and affecting market value as paper money; Bitcoin is mainly held in the hands of large investors, and the market depth is not enough. At present, the trading behavior of large investors is also very easy to affect the price of bitcoin. Even if the attribute of decentralization is regarded as the advantage of bitcoin when it is fully mature, then the prerequisite of holding decentralization should be added. In addition, there are great differences between centralized and decentralized online payment systems in the degree and type of financial risks they are exposed to
secondly, the low transaction cost of bitcoin is not without transaction cost. On the contrary, e to the increasing difficulty of bitcoin mining and the further stability of currency value, the dependence of relevant transaction platforms on transaction cost will increase, which will certainly increase the transaction cost. Finally, the confidentiality of the bitcoin transaction needs to be discussed. The principle of the bitcoin transaction makes all the processes of each bitcoin transaction stored in each machine. If someone can determine the real background of a transaction, they can find all the transactions down and up through these data
compared with other advantages, anti inflation or anti inflation is the most publicized advantage. Although its supply is stable and the upper limit of supply is locked according to its algorithm, unless the whole world is unified and all countries use bits as currency, it can not prevent the over issuance of money only as a means of payment or a storage of value, just as the current existence of gold can not constrain the growth of each country's currency. If bits can only be used as a means of payment in local areas (such as the network), then global or some countries' inflation will still be transmitted to the areas where bits are used. Therefore, the use of bits to prevent inflation is basically untenable, or has a strong premise. As for anti inflation, that is to say, it has the function of value storage, it needs to have the property similar to gold. However, from the reality, bit's essential property and prospect are still hard to match gold. See below for details
2. Bitcoin's future positioning is too high
the expectation of bitcoin's future in the market generally compares it with gold and US dollar, which is relatively high. The recognition of gold not only lies in its natural physical properties, but also in its official acceptance as a reserve currency (or an important allocation of foreign exchange assets). In theory, bitcoin as an electronic currency does not have the unique and exclusive status, and it is more difficult to become the official reserve of central banks like gold. Therefore, it is not appropriate to expect too much bit. As an electronic currency, bit has the first mover advantage. If it can be guaranteed in terms of security, its most optimistic prospect will be as a means of payment in local areas
3. Speculation and speculative demand caused by event factors are the main reasons for the rise of bitcoin in this round
under the credit currency system, people's lack of confidence in the currencies of various countries and pessimistic economic prospects are the general environment for the rise of bitcoin in this round. The speculation of the major dealers in the market and the derivatives market of bitcoin, together with the speculative psychology of the participants, further accelerated its rise. Btcchina's investment of US $5 million and the announcement of Ben's position are the main driving factors for the recent surge
however, a lot of big players start to enter the market and buy a lot, which not only drives the bit price up to a high level, but also increases the market risk. Chamath, a former Facebook executive, has spent $5 million on bitcoin and plans to spend another $10 million. Bitcoin investment trust also exceeded its target within four weeks, raising $15 million. These people's investments not only make bitcoin further rise, but also concentrate on the holding of bitcoin, which strengthens the influence of indivials and institutions on the price of bitcoin and increases the market risk
4. There is still strong room for speculation in the medium and short term
although our previous analysis is not optimistic about the prospect of bit, it is likely that bit will still have strong room for speculation in such a short and medium term period of time as one year. As mentioned in the previous analysis, the creators of bitcoin advocate that the generation of bitcoin is not manipulated by human factors, which is quite different from the credit currencies of various countries. We expect that the monetary policies of major countries will be divided next year. With the release of economic risks and the heavy damage to traditional asset markets, bitcoin will have better room for speculation and imagination< The use of bitcoin in some sensitive areas highlights the increasingly prominent role of information in national security
the U.S. government seized the drug trading website "Silk Road" at the beginning of last month. A crowdfunding network called "assassination market" even marked the sale of murderers with bitcoin price. The founder of the assassin market, under the pseudonym of kuwabatake Sanjuro, is an extreme anarchist. Both prism gate incident and the use of bitcoin in relevant sensitive fields highlight the increasingly prominent position of information field in national security. The Third Plenary Session proposed the establishment of the national security committee, which will play an important role in China's security strategy and expand from traditional national defense, stability maintenance / urban security to information security and other emerging areas

When the global financial crisis broke out in 2008, someone published a paper under the pseudonym of "Nakamoto Tsung", describing the mode of bitcoin
many bitcoin players are attracted by the fact that bitcoin can not be issued at will. Contrary to the attitude of bitcoin players, economists have a polarized attitude towards the fixed amount of 21 million bitcoin
Economists of Keynesian school believe that the government should actively regulate the total amount of money, and use the tightness of monetary policy to timely fuel or brake the economy. As a result, they believe that bitcoin's fixed aggregate currency sacrifices its adjustability, and worse still, it will inevitably lead to deflation, thereby harming the overall economy. Austrian economists hold the opposite view. They think that the less the government intervenes in money, the better. The deflation caused by the fixed amount of money is not a big deal, even a sign of social progressbitcoin network generates new bitcoin through "mining". In essence, the so-called "mining" is to use computers to solve a complex mathematical problem to ensure the consistency of bitcoin network distributed accounting system. Bitcoin network will automatically adjust the difficulty of mathematical problems, so that the whole network will get a qualified answer about every 10 minutes. Then bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as a reward to reward the person who gets the answer
when bitcoin was born in 2009, each 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 bounty will be halved to 25. When the total amount reached 15.75 million (5.25 million new output, or 50% of 1050), the bounty was further halved to 12.5
first of all, according to its design principle, the total amount of bitcoin will continue to grow until it reaches 21 million more than 100 years later. But the total amount of bitcoin will grow very slowly in the later period. In fact, 87.5% of bitcoin will be "g up" in the first 12 years. Therefore, in terms of the total amount of money, bitcoin will not reach a fixed amount, and its total amount of money will continue to expand, although the speed is getting slower and slower. So it looks like bitcoin is the inflation currency
However, the judgment of deflation or inflation is not based on whether the total amount of money is decreasing or increasing, but on whether the overall price level is falling or rising. The rise of overall price is inflation, and vice versa. In the long run, the issuing mechanism of bitcoin determines that the growth rate of its total amount of money will be far lower than that of social wealth Economists of Keynesian school believe that the continuous decline of prices will make people tend to postpone consumption, because the same dollar can buy more things tomorrow. The rection of consumption will further lead to shrinking demand, unsalable goods, lower prices and a vicious circle of "deflation spiral". Similarly, the deflationary currency itself can appreciate even if it is not deposited in the bank (the purchasing power becomes stronger and stronger), people's willingness to invest will increase, and social proction will fall into a downturn[ 5] Therefore, bitcoin is a currency with deflationary tendency. In bitcoin economies, commodity prices priced with bitcoin will continue to fallbitcoin is a kind of network virtual currency with limited quantity, but it can be used to cash out: it can be converted into the currency of most countries. You can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats, equipment, etc. in online games. As long as someone accepts it, you can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items

bitcoin is a new type of virtual currency, which is generated by a large number of calculations based on special algorithms. According to rigorous calculations, the stock of bitcoin is limited, with a total of 21 million, no more or less. After being created, bitcoin has rapidly become a "fixed asset" pursued by Internet speculators
in February 2014, mtgox, the world's largest trading platform, went bankrupt, casting a shadow on the whole bitcoin instry. Since the middle of 2014, the price of bitcoin has been in a downward trend for a long time
on August 12, 2015, the price of a bitcoin was only close to 1700 RMB
on the afternoon of February 8, 017, the inspection team of the business management department of the people's Bank of China interviewed the main principals of nine bitcoin trading platforms in Beijing, including "China bitcoin", "bitcoin trading network", "bitcoin", "yuncoin", "Yuanbao", "btc100", "jucoin", "coin shell" and "dahonghuo", which are engaged in bitcoin trading, Report the current problems of bitcoin trading platform, prompt the possible legal risk, policy risk and technical risk of the trading platform, understand the operation of the nine trading platforms, and put forward clear requirements: it is not allowed to engage in financial business such as financing currency, participate in money laundering activities, and violate the relevant national anti money laundering and anti money laundering regulations Foreign exchange management, payment and settlement and other financial laws and regulations shall not violate the state tax and instrial and commercial advertising management laws and regulations. If any bitcoin trading platform is found to have violated the above requirements and the circumstances are serious, the inspection team will request the relevant departments to shut down and ban it according to law

The concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, open source software was designed and released, and P2P network was built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses the design of cryptography to ensure the security of all aspects of money circulationbitcoin: also known as "bitcoin", is a kind of network virtual currency. Internet users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual goods, such as clothes, hats, equipment, etc. in online games. Internet users can also use bitcoin to buy real goods
bitcoin network generates new bitcoin through "mining". In essence, the so-called "mining" is to use computers to solve a complex mathematical problem to ensure the consistency of bitcoin network distributed accounting system. Bitcoin network will automatically adjust the difficulty of mathematical problems, so that the whole network will get a qualified answer about every 10 minutes. Then bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as a reward to reward the person who gets the answer
users can buy bitcoin, and at the same time, they can use computers to "mine" bitcoin according to a large number of calculations. When users "mine" bitcoin, they need to search for 64 bit numbers by computer, and then compete with other gold diggers by repeatedly solving riddles to provide the required numbers for bitcoin network. If the user's computer successfully creates a set of numbers
bitcoin is e-cash similar to e-mail. Both parties need "bitcoin wallet" similar to e-mail and "bitcoin address" similar to e-mail address. Just like sending and receiving e-mail, the remitter pays bitcoin directly to the other party through a computer or smart phone according to the recipient's address. The following table lists some websites that download bitcoin wallets and addresses for free

Digital RMB is very popular. The main differences between digital RMB and bitcoin are: 1. It can't be freely circulated; 2. There are special departments to monitor; 3. It can't be listed or traded; 4. It can't be hyped
as an emerging instry, bitcoin has attracted the attention of many people. The growth rate of bitcoin makes many people feel incredible. The growth rate of tens of thousands of times in more than ten years makes people realize the charm of emerging instries, which makes many people worry that bitcoin will bring challenges to traditional currencies. In order to make payment more convenient, the state has introced digital RMB. There are many differences between digital RMB and bitcoin, such as liquidity, regulatory and financial attributes
Third, the transaction and speculation of bitcoin and digital RMB are completely differentbitcoin is a financial proct, which can be continuously hyped through transactions to increase the price of bitcoin. The price of bitcoin can be constantly changed. Digital RMB is a kind of currency, which has a fixed price and can not be hyped. Hyping digital RMB may be subject to legal sanctions, which is also the difference between them
A: in essence, it is a multi person account book. But the currency (bitcoin) on the account book is generated out of thin air, and the algorithm is sha256 workload proof
PS: it's learned a lot, involving economics, cryptography, sociology, computer programming, etc. One can't master all of them, so there are many people who don't understand them. When you understand 1 / 2 of what XX learned above, you will understand
What do you think of bitcoin
in the long run (about 20 years), as long as the Internet does not disappear, I think bitcoin and legal currency will coexist for a long time. It will not replace legal currency as some people say, nor will it fall down and disappear as some people say. It is just the big and small difference between BTC circles. In addition, most of the unknowns in five years are not easy to predict. The specific development depends on the attitude of governments. If the attitude is better, the development will happen. If the attitude is not good, for example, the ban, such as Russia, simply say that BTC is illegal. Even so, it will not disappear, but it will go underground and develop little. Within five years, the whole world should get many application support in the enlightened Zhengfu countries, and get better development in the circulation and use in some countries all over the world. The highest price in five years is 20000 yuan. However, it may be as low as 3000 yuan. Be careful of large fluctuations
how to fry bitcoin
if you want to play, Pingtai is the first choice. Pingtai is very important. Otherwise, it will be like volume 796: money running, like mtgo losing: money
let's talk about the fluctuation of bitcoin. Because there is no government to supervise bitcoin, the fluctuation of bitcoin will be much larger, and it will become the extreme investor of bitcoin (not the ordinary investor of bitcoin, generally only playing with futures, goods and stocks)! The bitcoin market could be an IQ game. As a popular sentence in the bar: big money is blood eating! The public and retail investors are always the losers. Therefore, although I support bitcoin, I don't recommend retail investors to "fry" their wealth on bitcoin. Small games are OK. For example, if I lose 1000 yuan, I will make contributions to bitcoin. Here's another thing to say. Not all people who play bitcoin are like bitcoin. People who play bitcoin are looking for the next place to take orders or something. This IQ game has to do according to one's ability. I'm very happy to earn it. It also proves that I have a higher IQ than most people. I can't afford to pay for it. Don't learn how to sell my house, my brother. It's 40000 yuan.
