What does digital currency do

1.

digital currency is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency (which can be used for real goods and services transactions)

digital currency has the main characteristics of network packets. This kind of data packet is composed of data code and identification code. The data code is the content we need to transmit, while the identification code indicates where the data packet comes from and goes

based on the characteristics of digital currency, the direct benefit of digital currency to the central bank is not only to save the cost of note issuance, circulation and settlement, but also to enhance the central bank's ability to control funds

Electronic money and virtual money are called digital money. According to the definition of the European Central Bank, virtual money is issued by non central banks, credit institutions and e-money institutions, which can be used as the numerical expression of the value of currency substitutes in some cases

extended information:

the process of digital currency trading through the platform is as follows:

(1) investors should register accounts first, and obtain digital currency accounts and US dollar or other foreign exchange accounts at the same time

(2) users can buy and sell digital currency with the money in their cash account, just like buying and selling stocks and futures

(3) the trading platform will sort the buying requests and selling requests according to the rules and start to match them. If they meet the requirements, the transaction will be concluded

(4) e to the difference between the buy and sell volumes submitted by users, a buy or sell request may be partially executed

2. In short, virtual currency, also known as cryptocurrency, is issued and circulated on the Internet and mainly traded through exchanges. Because it runs on the blockchain, every transaction on the chain is semi anonymous and tamperable, so it ensures the circulation and a certain degree of security. Mainstream digital currencies include bitcoin, Ethereum and Leyte. Digital currency is inseparable from blockchain technology. The core idea of the latter is to ensure that all nodes have a consensus on a transaction through transaction broadcast and irrelevant node confirmation. Once the consensus is formed, transaction confirmation, block excavation and reward will follow. This reward is digital currency. If digital currency wants to have value, it can't do without people's recognition of its value. The more recognition, the more people want to have it, and the exchange came into being. If it's Xiao, it's not recommended to go to big exchanges (currency security, currency, OK) to play contract leverage. You can go to small exchanges to practice, such as currency easy, etc. You can also learn about the coin circle information. The development of the whole coin circle changes every day, very fast
there is no price limit for P.S. digital currency trading, so investment should be cautious!

3. Digital currency is a kind of legal tender, which must be issued by the central bank. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digital currency, which is not a network virtual currency, because it is not limited to virtual space, but is often used for real goods and services transactions, such as bitcoin, Wright coin, bitstock, etc. at present, there are thousands of digital currencies issued around the world

the digital currency launched by the central bank is a national sovereign currency, which is based on the digitalization of RMB. This is a piece of data generated by a complex algorithm, which contains blockchain and encryption technology, making it unique. The payment of Alipay and WeChat is not digital money, but only based on the payment realized by electronic accounts. Compared with the current pattern of "payment transfer collection" with the help of third-party payment, what digital currency needs to achieve is "decentralization", that is, to cancel the transfer link and directly hand over the money from the payer's account to the payee, so as to rece the payment cost in currency circulation

types of digital currency

according to different issuing or consensus mechanisms, it can be divided into four categories:

1, proof of work (POW)

proof of work. The system rewards are obtained through the mining of computing power to complete the issuance and distribution of currency. More work, more gain. Such as bitcoin, lightcoin (LTC)
the advantage is that the mining cost can form a monetary price support to a certain extent, and the disadvantage is that energy consumption and environmental protection are criticized< 2. Proof of stake (POS). Allocate the newly generated currency or interest according to the amount and time of cryptocurrency you hold. Such as dash and Neo
compared with pow, POS is more energy-saving, but it increases the security risk

3. The evolution scheme of delegated proof of stake (dpos)
POS. Similar to the voting mechanism of the board of directors, through the election of representatives to vote and make decisions, n accounting nodes are elected to create, verify, sign and supervise each other. Such as the grapefruit coin (EOS)
the advantage is high efficiency, but the problem is that it presents a semi centralized state

4. POW + POS hybrid mechanism
POW is mainly used to issue currency, and POS is used to maintain the system. For example, PPC

according to the project type, it can also be divided into four categories:

1. Currency category
digital currency issued for the purpose of transfer, payment and value storage. For example, bitcoin, bitcoin cash (BCH), Monroe (XmR), and grin

2. Public chain currency, that is, the digital currency issued by public chain projects, is generally the "fuel" for the application projects to run on the public chain. Such as eth, grapefruit coin, TRX and ont

3. Application token, that is, digital currency issued by decentralized application projects, is equivalent to equity or points. For example, OMG (payment application), GXC (data application), 1st (game application)

4. Platform currency, that is, the digital currency issued by the digital currency exchange, is equivalent to equity, points or fuel. For example, BNB, HT and okb.

4. I'm too young to remember the birth of the Internet. When the Internet was booming, I was in high school, a little confused about what happened. At a family party, when my cousin bragged about how much money he made from buying and selling domain names, I thought it was stupid
it's not a reality. Up to now, I still think it's stupid to make money by buying and selling domain names. I know it happens sometimes. It's like a high-risk, low return investment
as a result, the Internet did. Now, 20 years on, domain names are cheap, and search engines make them brand specific Note: the author means that the convenience of search engines makes domain names cheaper and cheaper. Domain names are only related to brands.)
What does this have to do with the value of bitcoin
this is an example of how people's views on value change with the development of technology
at this point, most people see bitcoin as money. The chairman of the US SEC said, "yes, that's how drug gangs use it. Everyone I know thinks so.". It's called "bit coin" for a reason
bitcoin maximalists call it hard currency, critics call it fake money, and veteran players call it cyber currency
W bq89998 push the latest currency from time to time to ensure the minimum 10 times

5. "The age of digital currency: the application and future of blockchain technology" is a book that makes the past and present of digital currency and blockchain technology clear and thorough in easy to understand and humorous language. The digital currency represented by bitcoin itself is not a disruptive innovation. The blockchain technology behind it is the subverter of the rules of the game. Reveal the future development direction of digital currency and the revolutionary changes and opportunities brought by blockchain technology. The innovation of bitcoin is to disintermediate financial services, and the blockchain technology behind bitcoin has revolutionized the transmission problems that have plagued computer networks for decades, so that information can be safely transmitted on unsafe networks. It can not only be applied to money, but also has the potential to end the phenomenon of identity information being stolen, create a secure, password free Internet, and change the way enterprises do business. Blockchain technology is a small step, but it is a big step forward in human history. There are still more money speculators in the market than those engaged in blockchain technology. At present, the mainstream digital currency transactions in the market include coin security, okex, bitnet, etc.
