Cracking down on bitcoin
bitcoin's recent offer has been less than $10000, and it has been around $14000 before. It can be said that it has fallen a lot. It can also be seen that the bitcoin stock market is still in the doldrums, but I don't think it will affect people's enthusiasm for online virtual currency as you know, bitcoin has always been used by many companies
investors generally have a good habit of gambling, they are willing to give up, and since then, the stock market of bitcoin and all kinds of network virtual currency has been good, and so far, there are still several kinds of network virtual currency rising slowly, so the collapse of bitcoin can not extinguish people's enthusiasm for network virtual currency. They will continue to buy
There is no law in China to ban bitcoin, so it is not illegal to mine and earn bitcoin
it is not illegal to buy bitcoin in China. In 2013, five ministries and commissions jointly issued the bitcoin risk notice, which states that although bitcoin does not belong to legal tender and is not legally compulsory, people can freely participate in bitcoin trading activities when they voluntarily undertake risks
"notice" clearly defines the nature of bitcoin, and holds that bitcoin is not issued by the monetary authority, has no monetary attributes such as legal compensation and mandatory, and is not a real currency. In terms of nature, bitcoin is a specific virtual commodity, which does not have the same legal status as currency and cannot and should not be used as currency in the market
however, as a kind of commodity trading on the Internet, ordinary people have the freedom to participate in bitcoin trading at their own risk
the notice requires that at this stage, financial institutions and Payment institutions shall not price procts or services with bitcoin, buy or sell bitcoin as a central counterparties, underwrite insurance business related to bitcoin or include bitcoin in the scope of insurance liability, and provide other bitcoin related services to customers directly or indirectly, Including: providing bitcoin registration, trading, clearing, settlement and other services for customers; Accept bitcoin or use bitcoin as a payment and settlement tool; Carry out bitcoin and RMB and foreign currency exchange services; Carry out bitcoin storage, custody, mortgage and other services; Issuing financial procts related to bitcoin; Take bitcoin as the investment target of trust, fund, etc
in order to avoid over hype of virtual commodities such as bitcoin in the name of "virtual currency" and damage the public interest and the legal tender status of RMB, the circular requires financial institutions and Payment institutions to correctly use the concept of currency in their daily work, pay attention to strengthening the ecation of the public's knowledge of currency, and correctly understand the concept of currency The concept of correctly treating virtual commodity and virtual currency, rational investment, reasonable control of investment risk, and maintenance of their own property security should be included in the content of financial knowledge popularization activities, so as to guide the public to establish a correct concept of currency and investment

As long as the influence of bitcoin scam is not particularly bad, the government generally adopts the policy that the people do not sue, the officials do not blame, and turn a blind eye to it. Because even if the government enters, it is difficult to find the culprit. The information of some operation teams is not public, and it is difficult to find it on the Internet. Some of them are still abroad, so it is difficult to solve the case. Some of the culprits turn around and become victims. There are also those who participated in the bitcoin pyramid scheme. A large number of victims are also the biggest accomplices< br />
the further development of bitcoin may threaten the interests of traditional currencies, and currency issuers will not cede their rights to an open-source P2P algorithm. So governments are likely to outlaw bitcoin
once governments declare it illegal, it may cause huge fluctuations in its price in the short term. It could be a crash, it could be a surge. Because people at the bottom of the world are obviously resistant to their governments< At the same time, the ban by the government will lead to the closure of bitcoin trading platform. After the closing of the trading platform, bitcoin can only be cashed in private, which will have a great impact on its cashing ability< However, e to the characteristics of bitcoin itself, it provides an excellent channel for officials of various countries to accept bribes, launder money and transfer assets overseas. Especially in the trend that officials of various countries disclose their property, bitcoin provides a good way for them to hold huge property anonymously
from this perspective, some officials may actively promote the legalization of bitcoin< On May 7, 2013, officials from the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) said that they were considering whether the online virtual currency "bitcoin" could be applied to the agency's regulations. CFTC is the highest regulator of the derivatives instry in the United States. Bitcoin is known as a currency independent of traditional authority, and if it is regulated more, it may bring challenges to its supporters
CFTC mainly supervises derivatives contracts. Its responsibilities have been greatly expanded after the financial crisis in 2007-2009, and it also has full power to supervise retail foreign exchange dealers
Bart Chilton, one of the five members of the CFTC, said on Monday that he had asked the committee to consider regulating bitcoin to determine whether consumers need additional protection when using bitcoin[ 15]
the Hong Kong government has approved GBL electronic currency trading center to operate virtual currency exchange business, which will be an important milestone in the development of bitcoin. GBL virtual electronic currency trading center has completed the equity change and has the business scope of virtual electronic currency exchange business.
anyone with a little common sense knows that a legal formal platform has at least an official website.
