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
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 end of 2013, the central bank and other five ministries and commissions jointly issued the bitcoin risk notice, which clearly defined bitcoin as a special Internet commodity, and people can buy and sell it freely at their own risk. But it denies its monetary attribute. At this stage, bitcoin cannot and should not be used as currency
Ruitai, Qianjin card, Laite and other digital currencies are all applicable to the definition of bitcoin. Digital currency can exist as a commodity.
It is illegal to buy and sell digital currency in China

the central bank said that the so-called "digital currency" in the market is not legal digital currency:
the central bank's monetary Bureau issued a "risk warning on issuing or promoting digital currency in the name of the people's Bank of China" on its official website, saying that recently, indivial enterprises falsely use the name of the central bank, The relevant digital procts are labeled as "authorized issuance by the people's Bank of China", or the central bank's digital currency promotion team is falsely claimed, in an attempt to deceive the public and take the opportunity to make huge profits
the central bank said that the central 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. The central bank also suggested that 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
in fact, virtual currencies such as bitcoin and lightcoin are representatives of the so-called digital currency. The central bank said in 2016 that it was studying China's legal digital currency. Yao Qian, director of the digital currency Research Institute of the people's Bank of China, previously told the media that the prototype scheme for the central bank to issue legal digital currency has completed two rounds of revision, and is expected to be tested in relatively closed application scenarios such as the bill market in the future, but there is no clear timetable for its launch
The people's Bank of China has not issued digital currency for the time being, so there is no legal digital currency in China at present. At present, digital currency has not been recognized in China, let alone legal
at present, all kinds of digital currencies circulating in the market are basically on the edge of the law. China maintains a neutral attitude, but does not like speculation, which is also the basic attitude of the central bank{ RRRRR}
< H2 > development materialsdigital currency is abbreviated as digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital currency" in English and the alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy
digital currency is different from the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it can be used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games. The early digital currency (digital gold currency) is a form of electronic currency named after the weight of gold. Today's digital currency, such as bitcoin, lightcoin and ppcoin, is an electronic currency created, issued and circulated by check sum cryptography. It is characterized by the use of P2P peer-to-peer network technology to issue, manage and circulate currency. In theory, it avoids bureaucratic examination and approval, so that everyone has the right to issue currency
Virtual digital currency countries are allowed
according to Sohu Finance and Economics Report: the central bank recently said that the research on digital currency has achieved phased results, striving for the early issuance of digital currency
at present, major banks in many European and American countries and regions have publicly expressed their positive attitude towards the development of digital currency. If the digital currency is successfully issued, in addition to the convenience of people's living and payment, it will also bring many benefits to the country, such as improving the transparency of economic transaction activities, and the significance of cross-border e-commerce trade can not be underestimated
It is obvious that digital currency is highly expected based on its "excellent gene". Instry insiders said that once digital currency comes out, it will be applied to many fields. Although there must be an adaptation process from paper money to digital currency and the road of its reform will be very long, it can be seen that digital currency will inevitably form a development trend. Technological innovation will overcome the problems in reality. For example, if you go to a bank to do business now, if it doesn't involve cash, the lobby manager will recommend customers to ATM and other self-service equipment. This is a good proof that technological innovation has replaced labor in the past. Now mobile applications are also very simple. It can be predicted that the technology will continue to update in the future. The use of electronic channels, digital currency and other procts in the new era will become a trend, a trend that can not be reversed at presentspecifically, why can we use the Internet
the announcement of the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions on preventing the financing risk of token issuance is very clear
Recently, the price of global crypto digital currency is quite unstable. Bitcoin has fallen below US $7000 from its peak of US $20000 at the end of last year, and soared by more than 11% in one day. There are huge fluctuations in the market, and there are many differences in the attitudes of countries towards digital currency. Some announced that they would issue the world's first sovereign legal digital currency, showing a "strong support" attitude, and more countries carefully observed and focused on research and guidance
the existing monetary and financial system is not a natural evolution, but an inevitable result of legal restrictions or government regulation. Although cryptocurrency has many defects, it is also a valuable experiment, especially in the exploration of super sovereign currency. Different from precious metal currency and credit currency, they are oriented to the exploration of "transaction benchmark consensus" in the data age. Of course, if it is affected by too much price fluctuation, speculation, deflation restrictions, etc., and the payment function of crypto digital currency can not be truly implemented, it can only be further and further away from the "currency experiment", or become a special basic "digital asset", or a flash in the pan in the long history
