Who are buying bitcoin now
in fact, there is still a complete conclusion on this issue, but most people at home and abroad agree that bitcoin is purchased by people with financial, Internet and investment backgrounds. I think it's not reliable for Chinese aunt to enter bitcoin. It's hard for people who know nothing about bitcoin to let her buy it
bitcoin is an open source software and system, with a total of 21 million. At present, about 1300 have been g up. The founder of bitcoin is Nakamoto (an extremely mysterious person or organization)
bitcoin is proced by mining. Bitcoin mining has gone through three development stages: CPU, GPU and ASIC. At present, bitcoin mining is in the stage of professional ASIC bitcoin mining, and the mainstream bitcoin miner in the market is Avalon's third generation single-mode miner. Avalon is a well-known miner hardware solution service provider in the world.
Those people are living a good life now, those who played bitcoin in the early days & lt; The pig of tuyere & quot; Made a lot of money
the discussion of bitcoin in many forums is no longer limited to & quot; Is bitcoin a scam;, Instead, it extends to & lt; Can bitcoin become a global currency in my opinion, bitcoin is a full digital bubble. A virtual currency constructed by algorithm has no national support behind it. Moreover, the scarcity of bitcoin will inevitably lead to its appreciation very quickly, especially under the guidance of market economy. behind the currencies used by countries in daily life are endorsements with national prestige, just like the reason why the US dollar circulates around the world is not because the strong national strength of the United States ensures the liquidity of the US dollar Nakamoto's original simple idea of letting bitcoin replace the currencies of various countries and become the object of global circulation is a joke in terms of power struggle between countriesLet's start with a simple conclusion: a year ago, the data showed that there were about 500000 BTC
two American brothers, Cameron winkleworth and Taylor winkleworth, claiming that they owned 1% of bitcoin [1] 1% of the world's bitcoin? At present, the total amount of bitcoin in the world is about 12 million, that is to say, the two brothers hold about 120000 bitcoins< maybe you don't think it's worth much, but note that the starting price of bitcoin for these two people is less than $10 / bitcoin
Please note that entities are used instead of people. In the analysis method of this paper, bitcoin wallets that may belong to the same owner are divided into the same entity, which may be not only a person, but also a trading organization like Mt. GOx in addition, through the analysis of the most active entity table given in this paper, the income of the people with the most income (excluding expenses) is less than 700000 BTC. In other words, the person with the most bitcoin will hold no more than 700000 bitcoins. How many people in the world own bitcoins? The paper concludes that as of May 13, 2012, 1.85 million entities hold bitcoin. If we assume that bitcoin users have grown linearly since the advent of bitcoin (January 2009), the current number should be 2.5 million. Because the number of entities is counted on paper, the actual number of bitcoin holders should be a little less than this number, but not much smaller, because after all, there are not many large trading platforms
In addition to the above two problems, [3] also gives many interesting conclusions, such as: < UL >about 55% of bitcoin can be saved without money
in places like GOx mountain, almost all deals are small ones
before May 2012, almost all large single transactions (& gt; 50000 BTC) are subsequent transactions of 90000 BTC on November 8, 2011. There are very strange patterns in this long list of transactions. For example, an entity divides 90000 BTCs into different sizes, sends them back to itself three times, and then sells them on Mt. GOx. 90000 BTCs sold are sent back to the entity through 90 different bitcoin addresses, with 1000 bitcoins per address. These operations indicate that the entity appears to be trying to hide the relationship between these transactions
I believe many small partners know that bitcoin has been worth millions of times since it came into being. In the virtual money market in recent years, the discussion on bitcoin is also very hot. Let's imagine that eight years ago, you had 100000 US dollars to buy bitcoin, and now by 2019, you can buy bitcoin, Will you surpass Bezos to become the richest man in the world
although bitcoin is still very popular in recent years, some people make a lot of money by bitcoin, but now there are still many people trapped in it. As we all know, this kind of virtual currency risk is very big, and we should not always think about making money by this way of speculation. Therefore, it is the most reliable thing to do something down-to-earth. What do you think< br />
therefore, many financial institutions begin to pay attention to their concerns, and realize the necessity of supporting digital assets such as bitcoin, and how to compete for the customer resources of millennials more effectively
according to the current development of blockchain technology and the clear trend of digital currency, it may be only a matter of time before digital currency can regain its glory.
Ordinary people can't buy bitcoin because China has banned it completely
on September 4, 2017, the central bank, together with many ministries and commissions, issued the announcement on preventing the risks of token issuance and financing (hereinafter referred to as the announcement), which pointed out that no organization or indivial may illegally engage in token issuance and financing activities
according to the announcement, all kinds of token issuance and financing activities should be stopped immediately from the date of release. Organizations and indivials that have completed the token issuance and financing should make arrangements such as refund, reasonably protect the rights and interests of investors, and properly handle risks. Relevant departments will seriously investigate and deal with the activities of token issuance and financing that refuse to stop and the illegal behaviors in completed token issuance and financing projects
on September 13, 2017, the China Internet Finance Association issued the "tips on preventing the risks of bitcoin and other so-called" virtual currency ", pointing out that bitcoin trading platform is a tool for money laundering, drug trafficking, smuggling, illegal fund-raising and other illegal criminal activities e to the expanding number of stakeholders and strong speculative atmosphere; There is no legal basis for the establishment of various so-called "currency" trading platforms in China
extended information:
bitcoin itself lacks precious metal support and has no value preservation. Moreover, it is virtual and lacks physical existence. If the trust of the issuer goes bankrupt or is stopped, bitcoin will be worthless
the worry is not just about asset security. Due to the "fast money", a large number of "hot money" may flow in. If the regulatory and control measures fail to keep up, the risk will eventually need to be paid at a high cost, and even lead to financial turmoil
What's more terrible is that when bitcoin becomes a pure "money transfer" tool, its original characteristics of financial innovation will graally disappear, on the contrary, it will become a "gold hole", thus squeezing investment in the real economy, which is obviously contrary to the principle of financial innovation to serve the real economy
