Turn off bitcoin
Prior to that, the regulatory authorities decided to close the exchanges of virtual currency in China. On September 14, regulatory rumors finally came to the ground. Just now, bitcoin China, one of China's three major virtual currency trading platforms, announced that bitcoin China would stop all trading business on September 30
according to public information, bitcoin China is the longest operating bitcoin trading platform in China, which was established on June 9, 2011. Affected by the news, bitcoin, lightcoin and Ethereum all fell sharply
On the evening of September 14, bitcoin China's official website announced that according to the spirit of the document issued on September 4, bitcoin China digital asset trading platform stopped new user registration from September 14; On September 30, the digital asset trading platform will stop all trading business
except bitcoin China, the other two platforms have not released relevant announcements yet. In response to reporters, Huo coin said that it has not received any clear documents or notices about the content of news reports. Okcoin said that the official announcement of okcoin should be taken as the standard
virtual currency has a long way to go and needs further supervision
at the same time, the price of bitcoin dropped from a high level. Since bitcoin China announced it would stop trading at the end of this month, the price of bitcoin has dropped 11.3% to $3426.92, Reuters reported. This is also bitcoin's seven consecutive days of decline, becoming its longest decline in a year.
This situation must be timely feedback to customer service, to retrieve
if bitcoin is stored in the account of the exchange, all the coins are in the big account of the exchange. If the exchange stops trading or goes bankrupt, all the coins belong to the actual controller of the exchange (the person who has the key of the big account)
therefore, if there are official problems in the exchange, we must contact the official customer service in time to retrieve them. In addition, digital assets, blockchain and other technologies will have unpredictable effects, and problems in the development process need to be standardized
extended information:
people who really own bitcoin do not store them on the Internet, but store them on the hard disk. Bitcoin's code is open source, which means that technicians can modify the code to proce a continuous stream of virtual currency
which breaks through the "limited amount" attribute of bitcoin. These virtual currencies can be exchanged with fiat currencies. For example, bitcoin can be exchanged into yen, and yen can be exchanged with almost all fiat currencies in the world
in this case, if the number of virtual currencies increases arbitrarily, there will be problems in the whole international monetary system. Therefore, on September 4, 2017, the central bank stopped the exchange function of the token trading platform, especially the exchange function with legal tender
On October 10, bitcoin China, one of the three major bitcoin exchanges in China, announced on its official wechat account that it would stop the cash withdrawal business at 12:00 noon on October 30, Beijing time, and ask users to reflect it as soon as possible
bitcoin China has previously turned off the digital assets and RMB recharge function at 12:00 noon on September 27, and turned off all trading functions at 12:00 noon on September 30. The other two big bitcoin exchanges in China, Huo coin.com and okcoin.com, which are headquartered in Beijing, will stop trading all digital assets into RMB before October 31, and the work of clearing their funds and assets is also in progress
Second, the current price of bitcoin has risen rapidly, has formed speculative expectations, if not stopped in advance, will eventually form a bubble, bringing huge losses to some investors and financial institutions, and undermining the stability of the financial system.
bitcoin is not regulatory, so it can not ensure the formal and legal transactions, and it is not concive to the healthy growth of the financial market.
