Circulation and total amount of digital money

1.

The total number of bitcoins is 21 million

in 2009, when bitcoin was born, block reward was 50 bitcoins. Ten minutes after its birth, the first 50 bitcoins were generated, and the total amount of money at this time is 50. Then bitcoin grew at a rate of about 50 every 10 minutes. When the total amount reaches 10.5 million (50% of 21 million), the block reward will be halved to 25

when the total amount reaches 15.75 million (5.25 million new output, i.e. 50% of 1050), the block reward will be further halved to 12.5. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to about 21 million

extended data

monetary characteristics

1. Decentralization: bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, and the whole network is composed of users without a central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom

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 needed to control bitcoin, which can be stored in any storage medium in isolation. No one can get it except the user himself

4. Low transaction cost: bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but a transaction fee of about 1 bitfen will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster transaction execution

5, no hidden cost: as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin has no cumbersome limit of quota and proceres. If you know the other party's bitcoin address, you can pay

6. Cross platform Mining: users can explore the computing power of different hardware on many platforms

2. The total price of goods is a certain amount. First of all, it's faster than circulation. But it's certain that the circulation times of money will correspondingly rece their currency circulation, which is also that the circulation speed of money is faster than the circulation times

3. It shows that the total amount of this kind of digital currency is relatively large, and the total amount of many digital currencies is as high as 10 billion. The circulation of some MLM coins is not constant and can be increased or split at will. Moreover, there are many different digital currencies in the world, and the number of each digital currency is very considerable
the well-known digital currencies in the currency circle include bitcoin, Ruitai coin, Laite coin, doggy coin, etc.

4. The market value of digital currency is equivalent to the market value of stocks in circulation, which is calculated by multiplying the market price of digital currency by the quantity in circulation. The formula is: market value = current price of digital currency * quantity in circulation
generally speaking, the market value is determined by the quantity in circulation rather than the total circulation. Because circulation quantity can better measure market value. The locked and predetermined ones can not be sold on the open market, which will not affect the currency price, so it will not affect the market value. The method of using circulating quantity is similar to using circulating shares to determine the market value of traditional investment
at present, the market value of bitcoin has reached more than 70%, occupying an absolute dominant position, while the market value of other currencies is declining. In the long run, the market value of the whole digital currency is growing. If we can seize the opportunity, we will get rich returns.

5. At present, these currencies are all classified as MLM currencies in China, so it is not recommended to participate in them.

6. The total amount of money in DCEP is not constant

why

let's take a look at the current definition of DCEP

Digital legal tender

in addition to being different from legal paper money in carrier, it has the same function as paper money: value scale, circulation means, payment means and value storage

this is also the function of paper money

the issuance of DCEP is based on 100% reserve and will circulate with cash currency, that is, M0 issuance

although the central bank's digital currency was slowly launched after the rise of blockchain technology, it is not pure blockchain technology, but only uses some technologies related to blockchain

we all know that the commercial application of block chain technology still faces many problems, such as concurrency, data storage and so on

a country with a large population like ours, if we use blockchain technology in a strict sense, it will not be able to carry it at present<

Wanxiang blockchain analysis:

from the information disclosed by the people's Bank of China, DC / EP does not use the real blockchain like Libra

although digital currency is not a token in the blockchain, it is similar to the token in the blockchain in the key features of non double flower, anonymity, unforgeability, security, transitivity, separability and programmability

therefore, DC / EP still belongs to token paradigm rather than account paradigm

the central bank is responsible for the maintenance of the DC / EP issuance registration subsystem, which is centralized and does not need to run consensus algorithm, so it will not be subject to the performance bottleneck of the blockchain

in DC / EP, blockchain is used to confirm the right registration of digital currency and plays an auxiliary role

each country's base currency issuance is increasing every year

therefore, the central bank's digital currency improves the bearing property of money. Paper money is naturally suitable for the atomic world, and digital currency is more suitable for the consumption scenarios in the bit world

the supply is definitely the same as that of the previous monetary system, increasing every year.

7.

Bitcoin ETF has not been approved by SEC (US Securities Regulatory Commission). The reason for SEC's refusal is that bitcoin's market manipulation and fraud problems

this issue may not be approved until the bitcoin market is mature

8. In the final analysis, e-money is just conceptual money information. It is actually a special information composed of a group of data including the user's identity, password, amount, scope of use, etc., so it can also be called digital money; E-money is the virtualization of the value scale of real money and the function of payment means. It is a kind of money without monetary entity. Electronic currency is a kind of invisible currency based on highly developed electronic technology; It can be used to represent the currency value of various amounts in reality. With the transformation from paper-based economy to digital economy, e-cash will become the mainstream, which can be paid on the Internet or through other electronic communication methods. This kind of currency has no physical form and is the holder's financial credit.
whether electronic currency can be called currency depends on whether electronic currency can independently perform the function of currency. At present, e-money can play the role of payment and settlement, but e-money is only a quasi currency that may perform the function of currency.
e-money can be divided into two types: one is e-cash based on the Internet environment and keeps the binary data representing the value of money in the hard disk of the computer terminal; One is the electronic wallet that keeps the monetary value in the IC card and can be circulated without the bank payment system
therefore, from an economic point of view, the use of e-money can indeed rece the circulation of paper money
