The issue of legal digital currency
China does not issue digital currency, and all the existing digital currencies are illegal
the central bank pointed out that no legal digital currency has been issued, and no institutions and enterprises have been authorized to issue legal digital currency. At present, the so-called "digital currency" in the market is not legal digital currency
virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. This kind of virtual currency is mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment. Digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency
"the legal currency of our country is RMB." In the risk warning, the monetary Bureau of the people's Bank of China once again stressed that RMB is uniformly printed and issued by the people's Bank of China
extended information:
with the soaring price of virtual currency represented by bitcoin, digital currency and the blockchain technology behind it have attracted great attention of the global financial community. In fact, legal digital currency has not yet been issued in China. Recently, the official website of the monetary Bureau of the people's Bank of China (PBOC) released the risk warning on issuing or promoting digital currency in the name of the people's Bank of China
in 2013, the central bank, together with five ministries and commissions, issued the notice on prevention of bitcoin risks, which clearly defined non legal digital currencies such as bitcoin as virtual commodities, which do not exist in the form of currency and legal currency
At the same time, digital money is different from electronic payment. In the actual use experience, digital money and electronic payment may feel similar, but they are still quite different in essence. Before digital currency, the financial instry has been highly informationizedsuch as Internet banking, WeChat, Alipay and other payment electronic popularization graally, physical cash accounts for only a very small part of all circulating currencies. In spite of this, because the money used in the transaction comes from the bank account, it actually corresponds to the banknotes
currently, digital currency in the market involves multi-level marketing
digital currency is a new technology that can improve the efficiency of transaction, but it is targeted by lawless elements to carry out pyramid selling and fraud in its name
the official website of the monetary Bureau of the people's Bank of China issued the risk warning on issuing or promoting digital currency in the name of the people's Bank of China. The central bank pointed out that recently, indivial enterprises falsely used the name of our bank to label relevant digital procts as "authorized issuance by the people's Bank of China", or falsely claimed that the digital currency promotion team of the central bank issued, in an attempt to deceive the public and take the opportunity to make huge profits
in the risk warning, the central bank stressed that the bank has not issued legal digital currency, nor authorized any institutions and enterprises to issue legal digital currency, and there is no promotion team. At present, the so-called "digital currency" in the market is not legal digital currency
at the same time, the so-called "digital currency" launched by some institutions and enterprises and the so-called promotion of the central bank's issuance of digital currency may involve pyramid selling and fraud. The general public should raise their risk awareness, invest rationally and prudently, and prevent the interests from being damaged
in fact, the country has been studying the field of digital currency, and digital currency and blockchain are the future development trend. As for when to issue, we can only say that when the time comes, it will be issued naturally. We need to ensure the steady operation of the financial economy.
A few days ago, some media reported that in the future, once the legal digital currency really runs, the application scenarios will penetrate into all aspects of social life, but its real launch will take time
At the same time, the issuance of legal digital currency will greatly increase the number of point-to-point transactions, bypassing the original regulatory system to a certain extent, which is easy to facilitate illegal transactions. As digital currency makes it very convenient to convert deposits into cash, financial panic and financial risk will accelerate the spread once they occur, which increases the difficulty of supervision In addition, in the process of using legal digital currency, a large number of user data and transaction information will be obtained. How to store and manage these data to prevent the disclosure and illegal use of user information is also an important challenge. No matter from the perspective of technology or security, it is difficult to have a great impact on monetary policy and payment mode in the short termArticle source: bit110 network
legal digital currency is the digital currency issued by the state and the central bank in China
this kind of digital currency can carry on the ordinary on-line mobile payment, also may carry on the sweep code payment, is similar to the Alipay and WeChat's using method, is very convenient.
this new type of legal digital currency is actually much more convenient than the existing means of mobile payment for three reasons:
first, legal digital currency does not need bank transfer and withdrawal
now we need to use Alipay and WeChat to bind the bank cards on Alipay and WeChat first, then transfer the money in the bank card to Alipay and WeChat, which is very troublesome. p>
but legal digital currency itself is stored in the bank card account, so there is no need to transfer in and withdraw the operation, you can directly withdraw the digital currency on the ATM, or you can directly use the app to pay, which is very convenient
Jensen said, "after two years of stupid spending and bad decision-making, the bitcoin foundation has in fact gone bankrupt. The foundation even ran out of funds in November last year."
it is reported that the board of directors has tried to reverse this situation by looking for a new executive director, and Patrick Murck, the new executive director of bitcoin foundation, also believes that the only way out of this dilemma is for the foundation to only use the funds for those core development projects
however, according to Jensen, "the foundation has almost no funds at present, and 90% of its employees have been laid off, and only some of them remain as volunteers."
however, two other members of the organization also said that the bitcoin foundation is not bankrupt, it just needs to be restructured. Founded in 2012 in the United States, the bitcoin foundation is a non-profit organization. The organization has always said that it does not fully represent bitcoin, but is only an organization set up to promote the global development of bitcoin
Jensen also said: "the bitcoin foundation hates transparency. Jim Harper had planned to hold a press conference after the election, but was forced to cancel because the foundation was never open to the outside world. As a result, some smart people no longer trust the special currency foundation, so the foundation can't raise enough money. "
it should be noted that Jensen and Jim Harper are the two new board members newly elected last month. This election was voted by bitcoin Foundation's annual and lifetime members. 89% of the members participated in the pre election and 74% in the general election. In the results of the general election, Jensen won 277 votes, accounting for 63%, ranking first. This was followed by Harper's 264 votes, 60%. After being elected, both of them expressed the hope that the bitcoin foundation could carry out key research and development, fully realize the transparency of the organization, and finally make all stores and people in the world accept bitcoin. On March 15 this year, the two of them officially began their two-year term of office.
