Bitcoin's early computing power
The following is the distribution chart of computing power:
the computing power of bitcoin is mainly controlled by some mine owners in the world, and the computing power of retail investors is very small, almost negligible. The computing power of China's mining pool even accounts for more than 80%, and China's voice is increasing
however, many digital currencies no longer need to be mined. Some digital currencies will be directly sent to investors through ICO, and Puyin is one of the representatives, but these digital currencies generally correspond to real assets
Bitcoin bulls often mention that the scarcity value of this cryptocurrency is the main reason for its continued rise. Bitcoin is similar to gold to some extent. The growth of its supply is extremely slow, and it is still slowing down. Its total supply will only reach 21 million
with the increasing interest of institutional investors and retail investors in bitcoin, global exchanges such as the Chicago Board of options (CBOE) have launched bitcoin futures contracts. This is likely to encourage more institutional investors to invest in bitcoin, while at the same time further curbing the price volatility of bitcoin
this much anticipated bitcoin futures trading has been launched on the Chicago Board of options exchange, which represents a significant step in the legalization of cryptocurrency. Futures is a derivative / financial instrument, which can force dealers to buy and sell an asset at a specific time and price

in short, it is a redistribution of computing power driven by interests.
When bitcoin first appeared in 2009, its price was less than 1 cent. One dollar could be converted into 1300 bitcoins, that is to say, seven yuan could be converted into 1300 bitcoins
on May 5, 2017, bitfinex, an overseas digital currency trading platform, quoted a price. Bitcoin once hit US $1700, about RMB 11737

on October 31, 2013, Lei Teng, a famous Internet lawyer, proposed the event of "filing a case to investigate the closure of GBL bitcoin trading platform as soon as possible", analyzed the "value function" and "use function" of bitcoin, and bitcoin should be governed by relevant laws
on December 5, 2013, notice of the Ministry of instry and information technology of the people's Bank of China, China Banking Regulatory Commission, China Securities Regulatory Commission and China Insurance Regulatory Commission on preventing bitcoin risk: bitcoin is a specific virtual commodity; Bitcoin trading is a kind of commodity trading on the Internet. Ordinary people have the freedom to participate in it at their own risk
on September 4, 2017, the announcement of the people's Bank of China Central Network Information Office, Ministry of instry and information technology, State Administration for Instry and commerce, China Banking Regulatory Commission, China Securities Regulatory Commission and China Insurance Regulatory Commission on preventing the risk of token issuance financing: it is prohibited to engage in token issuance financing activities (ICO)
the trading platform shall not engage in the exchange business between legal tender and token, or virtual currency, or buy or sell token or virtual currency as a central counter party, or provide pricing, information intermediary and other services for token or virtual currency

unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency institution to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. 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
according to the notice on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, there is no approved digital currency trading platform in China. According to China's digital currency regulatory framework, investors have the freedom to participate in digital currency transactions at their own risk

on November 1, 2008, Nakamoto published a paper entitled "bitcoin: a point-to-point e-cash system" in the cryptography mailing list of "metzdowd. Com". This paper describes in detail how to create a decentralized electronic trading system, and this system does not need to be built on the basis of mutual trust between the two parties. Soon, on January 3, 2009, he developed the first client program to implement the bitcoin algorithm, concted the first "mining" and obtained the first batch of 50 bitcoins. This also marks the formal birth of bitcoin financial system
on December 5, 2010, ring the WikiLeaks leak of US diplomatic cables, the bitcoin community appealed to WikiLeaks to accept bitcoin donations to break the financial blockade. Nakamoto expressed his firm opposition, saying that bitcoin is still in its infancy and cannot afford conflicts and disputes. Seven days later, on December 12, he published his last article in the bitcoin forum, mentioning some minor problems in the latest version of the software. Then he did not show up and e-mail communication was graally terminated
Bitcoin, English name bitcoin, is a digital currency based on blockchain technology, which is composed of a series of computer-generated complex codes. Like RMB's ¥ and US dollar's $, bitcoin has its own symbol, the "B" in the figure below
The inventor of
bitcoin is Nakamoto. Satoshi Nakamoto is the creator of bitcoin protocol and its related software bitcoin QT. In 2008, he published a paper called "bitcoin: a peer-to-peer electronic cash system", describing an electronic currency and its algorithm that he called "bitcoin"

If the price of each bitcoin was $2W, it was worth $20 billion at one time. So far, his true identity is still unknown to the outside world, that is to say, no one knows who Nakamoto is
bitcoin appeared after the global financial crisis in 2008. In fact, before that, many people have tried electronic currency, digital currency and virtual currency, but they have not succeeded. There are not only technical reasons, but also social environment and economic background reasons. To some extent, it was the 2008 financial crisis that gave birth to bitcoin
but bitcoin mining as an infrastructure, if bitcoin can continue to exist, although the income of mining is reced, for the security of the whole bitcoin network system, some big bitcoin companies may invest in mining to maintain the security of bitcoin network system. In addition, the future of bitcoin will become more clear and bright. Bitcoin's computing power will not decrease, but will increase.
