The meaning of bitcoin's decentralized currency
{rrrrrrr}
bitcoin (BTC) is a digital currency with a total amount of 21 million. It has the characteristics of decentralization, globalization and anonymity, just like the Internet. It means that transferring bitcoin to the other end of the earth is as simple as sending e-mail, low-cost and unlimited. Bitcoin is also used in cross-border trade, payment, remittance and other fields
the liquidity and limitation of bitcoin determine that bitcoin can act as a monetary function equivalent to general equivalent, or as a measure of money, but this measure is not a physical measure like gold, but a digital proct
related concepts:
1. Address
the address of bitcoin world looks like this. The address itself is just a string of codes, just like your bank account number 321 million 3288372, which is used to mark an account. Everyone can have countless addresses. The address is public
2. The bank records how much money there is in the bank account
the amount of money in the bitcoin address is recorded by the whole bitcoin network. Each complete bitcoin data will record how many bitcoins are stored in this address
each node participating in the bitcoin network can save a complete of bitcoin data, and everyone has a backup on hand to prevent counterfeiting
3. The key (private key)
the key is another string of characters you only know. The key is used to operate the money in the bitcoin address. Key and address are the relationship between a key and a lock. Each address has only one password, and each password also operates a bitcoin address
with the key, you can control the money in the bitcoin address and pay to anyone. The key should be absolutely safe. The lost or deleted key can never be found, and the money in the corresponding bitcoin address can never be used
the key needs to be kept absolutely secret. Anyone who knows the key can steal all your bitcoin
4. Wallet
the transaction process of bitcoin will involve a lot of complex calculations. In order to simplify the operation, we have made wallets. The wallet has client software on the computer, and also has an online web version. The function of the wallet is to pay with a little touch, and the complicated calculation behind it is left to the wallet to complete
5. Security
if you use the computer client software, you can recommend multibit or bitcoin QT. Both are official software recommendations for the bitcoin community. The installation of these two softwares must be downloaded directly from the official website, and the check code must be checked before and after downloading. This is to prevent someone from tampering with wallet software and stealing keys
6. mining
about every 10 minutes, some new bitcoin will appear in the bitcoin network, which can be imagined as throwing money in the sky. Whose pocket these scattered money fall into mainly depends on whose computer calculates fast. The faster you calculate, the more likely you are to find the money. Mining is to use the computer to calculate, to pick up the money< br />
above, explain the two problems of building owners: 1. Decentralization, because the account book records are not centralized in the hands of each participant, and you will get paid if you save and keep accounts. 2. Since I can get rewards by saving and keeping accounts, can I just keep accounts instead of storing them? If you have a mining pool, you can keep accounts for it and store it for you. In this way, you can still get good rewards. There are only a few mining pools in the world, so they are centralized
Bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency
to mine bitcoin, you can download the special bitcoin computing tools, register various cooperation websites, fill the registered user name and password into the computing program, and then click the operation to officially start. After completing the installation of bitcoin client, you can directly obtain a bitcoin address. When others pay, you only need to paste the address to others, and you can pay through the same client
after installing the bitcoin client, it will assign a private key and a public key. You need to back up the wallet data containing your private key to ensure that your property is not lost. Unfortunately, if the hard disk is completely formatted, personal bitcoin will be completely lost
extended information:
as a virtual commodity, bitcoin itself has no national boundaries, and its operation mode is a "decentralized" monetary system, which is very convenient for one-time large transaction. Bitcoin is traded through the network, and the owner's identity is only in the form of a set of encrypted computer code
in the operation, input a digital address directly, click the mouse a few times, and wait for the confirmation of the transaction to complete the transaction. The network can only record which address a bitcoin was g up from and how it was transferred
however, the identity of the owners of these addresses can not be verified, which is just like when money goes to an ownerless bank account, the relevant transactions can easily be invisible from the perspective of government supervision, and it is difficult to be tracked or intercepted. In addition, bitcoin can evade the scrutiny of exchange control institutions required by normal cross-border remittance, and the transaction records will not be recorded by banks and other parties
naturally, the problem of reporting to relevant departments after the transaction exceeds a certain amount is avoided. Buy bitcoin with domestic currency, sell it on foreign trading platforms, and withdraw it in US dollars. Asset transfer can be completed in a few minutes
it is not difficult to open an overseas bank account related to bitcoin for foreign exchange, and the conversion is very convenient. Because of these characteristics, bitcoin has been chosen by criminal organizations
Bitcoin is a kind of virtual encrypted digital currency in the form of P2P. Different from all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, And the use of cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of money circulation. However, on September 4, 2017, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions announced that virtual currency trading is prohibited in China, and bitcoin is prohibited from circulating in China
according to the first article of the notice on preventing the financing risks of token issuance, we should accurately understand the essential attributes of token issuance financing activities. Token issuance financing refers to the illegal sale and circulation of tokens by the financing subject to raise the so-called virtual currency such as bitcoin and ether coin from investors. In essence, it is an unauthorized illegal public financing behavior, which is suspected of illegal sale of token bills, illegal issuance of securities, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal criminal activities
Relevant departments will closely monitor relevant developments, strengthen cooperation with judicial departments and local governments, strictly enforce the law in accordance with the current working mechanism, and resolutely deal with market chaos. If suspected crimes are found, they will be transferred to judicial organs. The token or "virtual currency" used in token issuance financing is not issued by the monetary authority, does not have such monetary attributes as legal compensation and compulsion, does not have the same legal status as currency, and cannot and should not be used as currency in the market
extended information:
Article 3 of the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance strengthens the management of token financing trading platform. From the date of this announcement, any so-called token financing trading platform shall not engage in the exchange business between legal tender and token and "virtual currency", nor buy or sell token or "virtual currency" as a central counterpart, nor provide pricing, information intermediary and other services for token or "virtual currency"
for the token financing trading platform with illegal problems, the financial management department will request the competent department of telecommunications to close its website platform and mobile app according to law, request the network information department to remove the mobile app from the app store, and request the instrial and commercial administration department to revoke its business license according to law
Article 4 financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall not carry out business related to token issuance financing transactions. All financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall not directly or indirectly provide procts or services such as account opening, registration, trading, clearing and settlement for token issuance and financing and "virtual currency", nor undertake insurance business related to token and "virtual currency" or include token and "virtual currency" into the scope of insurance liability. Financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall report to the relevant departments in a timely manner if they find clues of violation of laws and regulations in token issuance financing transactions
2 Global Circulation: bitcoin can be managed on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where you are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or collect bitcoin
3. Exclusive ownership: private key is required to control bitcoin, which can be separated in any storage medium. No one but users can get
4 low transaction cost: bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but the final transaction fee of about 1 bitfen will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster execution of the transaction
5 no hidden cost: as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin's trivial amount and proceres are limited. You can pay if you know the other party's bitcoin address
6 cross platform Mining: users can explore different computing power on many platforms.
The concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, open source software was designed and released, and P2P network was built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses the design of cryptography to ensure the security of all aspects of money circulationbitcoin: also known as "bitcoin", is a kind of network virtual currency. Internet users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual goods, such as clothes, hats, equipment, etc. in online games. Internet users can also use bitcoin to buy real goods
bitcoin network generates new bitcoin through "mining". In essence, the so-called "mining" is to use computers to solve a complex mathematical problem to ensure the consistency of bitcoin network distributed accounting system. Bitcoin network will automatically adjust the difficulty of mathematical problems, so that the whole network will get a qualified answer about every 10 minutes. Then bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as a reward to reward the person who gets the answer
users can buy bitcoin, and at the same time, they can use computers to "mine" bitcoin according to a large number of calculations. When users "mine" bitcoin, they need to search for 64 bit numbers by computer, and then compete with other gold diggers by repeatedly solving riddles to provide the required numbers for bitcoin network. If the user's computer successfully creates a set of numbers
bitcoin is e-cash similar to e-mail. Both parties need "bitcoin wallet" similar to e-mail and "bitcoin address" similar to e-mail address. Just like sending and receiving e-mail, the remitter pays bitcoin directly to the other party through a computer or smart phone according to the recipient's address. The following table lists some websites that download bitcoin wallets and addresses for free

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
