Bitcoin up 1% and
About 400 percent
when bitcoin first appeared in 2009, one dollar could buy almost 1300 bitcoins. Before April 2011, the price of each bitcoin was always below $1. In June 2011, the highest price of bitcoin rose to $30. Then, the price almost fell within a week. In 2012, the price of bitcoin once fell below $2
further dropped to $114 on January 14, 2015. Since then, bitcoin has begun to rise again.

extended data
in 2016, there were dozens of bitcoin exchanges in the world, and the trading volume of bitcoin in most countries and regions increased sharply. Among the countries and regions with the highest growth rate, the trading volume of bitcoin in Japan is second only to China, ranking second in the world; The local bitcoin trading volume in Venezuela increased by more than 913%
South Korea has become the sixth largest bitcoin trading market in the world, Korean people can buy bitcoin from a large number of convenience stores, and korbit's trading volume currently accounts for 70% of the South Korean market; Local bitcoin transactions in Colombia increased by about 370%; Bitcoin markets in Malaysia, Russia and Australia are also developing rapidly. Bitcoin trading in China once accounted for more than 80% of the global trading volume
cryptocurrency has an exchange, but its price is determined according to the change of stock in the market. Many people want to buy bitcoin and other currencies, they have to go to these exchanges to buy, sell and other operations. In other words, the exchange provides a platform to facilitate bitcoin trading. Because of its encryption property, it is difficult for the regulatory level to uniformly deploy and implement relevant measures, so many countries prohibit bitcoin trading
but even so, bitcoin still has a high transaction value, part of which is the labor and cost of digging out coins, part of which is e to market factors. The total amount of coins is determined, so every coin g out will be one less. From the perspective of Marketization, the value of bitcoin will be higher and higher. Therefore, many people think that bitcoin has great value-added space, and many investors choose to hold bitcoin for a long time. As a result, the underlying bitcoin value is locked in. Later, bitcoin was also used in some social activities. For example, some foreign companies used bitcoin to pay their employees, and even bitcoin could be used for shopping
once the underlying value is determined, the sharp rise and fall of bitcoin is dominated by market behavior. This kind of uncertainty is more serious, and the market fluctuates more frequently. In the absence of relevant credit endorsement support, naturally, once there is any disturbance, bitcoin's value will fluctuate greatly.
China has the largest number of blockchain patent applications in the world
China has a good foundation in the field of blockchain. With the support of the previous series of policies, blockchain technology and instry have developed rapidly, and began to integrate with all walks of life
in 2016, the State Council issued the 13th five year plan for national informatization, which listed blockchain technology as a strategic frontier technology. In June 2018, the Ministry of instry and information technology issued the instrial Internet development action plan (2018-2020) to encourage the application research and exploration of emerging frontier technologies such as blockchain in the instrial Internet
the number of patent applications for blockchain technology in China ranks the first in the world in recent years. According to the 2018 China e-banking survey report released by China financial certification authority (CFCA) at the end of last year, more than half of the existing patent applications related to blockchain in the world are from China. By the end of 2017, there were more than 1200 patent applications, surpassing the United States and becoming the first
at present, the top three Internet giants Alibaba, Tencent and network are trying to develop regional blockchain technology and related basic technology development, such as network super chain platform, ant blockchain baas platform, Tencent cloud tbaas blockchain service platform, etc
at present, in terms of global enterprises, the first and second echelons of blockchain technology competition have been formed. As of April 2019, Alibaba ranked first in the global blockchain patent ranking in the first half of 2019 with 290 blockchain patents.
