Bitcoin anchor
It's hard to say that the value of bitcoin depends entirely on other digital currencies. Many digital currencies anchor the rise and fall of bitcoin. Moreover, although bitcoin itself limits the number of issues, its lower limit is wireless issuance. Compared with the most popular 21 million, it has been issued nearly 100000 times. Moreover, it lacks supervision, Its price is completely controlled by some capital parties and teams, becoming a tool for capital to harvest leeks
according to my estimation, the value of bitcoin will continue to rise, and it will continue to be issued, which is equivalent to a big plate. In order to attract more people into the pit, bitcoin must rely on the rise to attract investors, and then harvest through the control panel. This can also be seen from the rise and fall of bitcoin in the past five years, And the change of funds< br />
unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. 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 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
from 12:00 noon on January 24, 2017, China's three major bitcoin platforms officially began to collect transaction fees
on September 4, 2017, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions announced that China banned virtual currency trading
on December 17, 2017, bitcoin reached an all-time high of $19850
on November 25, 2018, bitcoin fell below the $4000 mark and is now stable at more than $3000.
in April 2019, bitcoin again stood at the $5000 mark, reaching a new high of the year.
opponents of bitcoin accuse mining of wasting a lot of resources to make meaningless coin toss, while supporters take gold mining as an example. For the bitcoin system, the biggest significance of this kind of resource consumption mining is: to distribute 21 million initial bitcoins fairly, just like to consume resources to dig gold, the only way to distribute initial bitcoins fairly is to consume resources to dig bitcoins
bitcoin has thousands of plagiarists, competitors and improvers because of its open source code. Generally, those who simply and imitate bitcoin are called Shanzhai coins, and those who add certain new features to bitcoin are called competitive coins. Some coins add other functional moles such as smart contract to bitcoin, and call themselves "second generation coins". These thousands of coins try all the initial coin distribution modes you can imagine, such as the average distribution of the initial coin to each Icelandic, the distribution of the initial coin to the nextcoin of 73 crowd funding participants, and the slow distribution of the majority of the initial coin by the developer
but the fairness of all these ways of distributing initial coins is far weaker than the mode of burning money to obtain initial bitcoin, and fairness is the core problem of a monetary system. Therefore, although bitcoin mining consumes a lot of resources, it is a reasonable economic behavior just like consuming resources to mine gold.
tips: there are risks in buying money, so be careful when you are honest.
On August 22, 2018, the US Securities and Futures Commission (SEC) announced that it had rejected nine applications for bitcoin ETFs from ProShares, direxion and graniteshares. After the news came out, bitcoin quickly fell by more than $200, and other digital currencies also fell significantly
the SEC's main concern is still the market manipulation and fraud of bitcoin. It said that the application of ProShares failed to achieve the goal of "preventing fraud and manipulation ", and the exchange also failed to provide direct evidence to prove that the bitcoin futures market "has a significant scale "
the committee rejected the proposal because, as mentioned earlier, the exchange could not legally prove that the proposal was in line with 6 (b) (5) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act, especially the requirement that the national stock exchange should establish rules to avoid fraud and market manipulation
this is the same reason for rejecting other bitcoin ETF applications. At the end of July this year, the securities and Futures Commission of the United States once again rejected the Winklevoss brothers' application for bitcoin ETF after a retrial, and the market's expectation for more digital currency derivatives failed again
at that time, the SEC mentioned that the trading volume of bitcoin futures market was very small ; However, the sharp rise in prices in 2017 was e to market manipulation
although the SEC has repeatedly rejected applications for digital currency ETF procts, other exchanges still submit relevant applications for approval. Bitwise filed an ETF application in July to track a basket of digital currencies, as well as an ETF application from the Vaneck solidx bitcoin trust. The SEC said Van Eck's ETF application would be delayed until September 30
The special feature of Vaneck's ETF application is that it is a rare ETF application based on actual digital currency transaction. A series of applications for bitcoin ETF rejected on Wednesday anchored bitcoin futures absolutely impossible

so why is bitcoin easy to store money and transfer assets? This is determined by its design principle. Professional knowledge is too complex. In short, bitcoin is a code city that can't be broken by hackers. All users involved in bitcoin trading in this city can't trace their real information through any technical means. Therefore, bitcoin has become a pure land of assets that governments can't control. In this city, your private property will always be yours, No one wants to take it away. If you forget your password, it will be miserable, because you don't want to take back your own bitcoin. It will be stored in this city forever. Therefore, the extreme security and secrecy of bitcoin make it easy for private property to completely get rid of the control of sovereign states, so it is reasonable for governments to study regulatory methods, because bitcoin is the most powerful in history, which can fight against the country's enemies economically
