practical significance
the digitalization of central bank's currency helps to optimize the central bank's monetary payment function, improve the central bank's monetary status and the effectiveness of monetary policy. The central bank's digital currency can become an interest bearing asset to meet the holder's reserve demand for safe assets, and can also become the lower limit of bank deposit interest rate
can also become a new monetary policy tool. At the same time, the central bank can affect the bank's deposit and loan interest rate by adjusting the central bank's digital currency interest rate, and help break the zero interest rate lower limit
operation system
fan Yifei, vice governor of the people's Bank of China, said in the article that the digital currency of the people's Bank of China should adopt a two-tier operation system. This model does not change the relationship between creditor's rights and debt of currency in circulation, does not change the existing money supply system and al account structure, does not constitute a competition for commercial banks' deposit currency, and does not increase commercial banks' dependence on the interbank lending market
will not affect the lending ability of commercial banks, and will not lead to the phenomenon of "financial disintermediation". At the same time, because it does not affect the existing monetary policy transmission mechanism, it will not strengthen the pro cyclical effect under the pressure environment, and it can improve the convenience and security of payment, and it also has the credit advantage of central bank endorsement
The digital currency of the central bank is DCEP
the name of the digital currency developed by the central bank is DCEP (digital currency electronic payment). DC is digital currency. EP is electronic payment. Payment transmits digital things through a certain way, not paper currency. Therefore, electronic payment itself has the attribute of digital currency
The characteristics of digital currency are: low transaction cost; Fast trading speed; Highly anonymous

Application of digital currency
I. fast, economic and safe payment and settlement
cross border payment helps RMB internationalization. In 2015, the settlement volume of cross-border payment involving current account is about 8 trillion yuan. To accelerate the internationalization of RMB, cross-border payment and settlement procts and solutions with low cost, high efficiency and low risk are needed
At present, there are still a lot of repetitive human work in the bank's electronic loan process and processing process, and as the basic support of loan issuance, many of the collateral has the situation of false pricing or multiple or even no collateral. We can consider using digital currency to price and track bank collateral:3. Bill finance and supply chain finance
in recent years, various bill market businesses based on commercial bills have grown rapidly, and bill financing procts have become a hot area of Internet financing. However, about 70% of the current bill businesses in China are still paper transactions, Supply chain finance is also highly dependent on labor costs

According to Caixin, the digital bill trading platform based on blockchain promoted by the central bank has been successfully tested, and the legal digital currency issued by the central bank has been put into trial operation on the platform, and the R & D center will be set up in the near future for continuous improvement; After the Spring Festival, the digital currency Research Institute of the central bank will also be officially listed. This means that in the world, the Central Bank of China will become the first central bank to issue digital currency and carry out real application, and take the lead in exploring the practical application of blockchain. The implementation of the project is a major financial technology achievement led by the central bank and independently innovated and developed. This shows that the people's Bank of China is closely following the international frontier trend of financial technology, striving to grasp the foresight and control of the application of financial technology, and its determination and efforts to explore and practice frontier financial services. The people's Bank of China has said that it will publish digital currency R & D talents on the official Internet, which is of great importance. Here I would like to remind you that the more formal and professional new things are, the more professional talents must be given to operate them

{rrrrrrr}
for example, Internet of things digital currency / national cause (charity) wechat group fraud backbone [Wang Sulan] [Cai Yongming] [Xue gendi] [Du Kaiju] [Liu Yanfei] [Wang Jufang], [Tian Genmin], [Li qiuqiong], [Fu Yunjuan], [sun Qing], [Wang Yanyan], [Qu Fengtao], [Li MEIXIA], [Wu Juzhen], [Lin Baihe], [Li Jianhua], [Xu Tao], [Li Yingchun] and others have painstakingly created [a learning group from Lei Feng], [accurate poverty support and pay group], [b33651 group in ten districts], [Wang Sulan, Cai Yongming new project report group], [Shanghai Learn from Lei Feng core group, work together and help each other group, Shanghai Xue gendi team, learning group (Shanghai), positive energy 605 group, charity 128 group-1, 4 detachment 158 group, 2128 brigade, charity love harmony 87 group, Internet of things 133-9 group, China Internet of things digital currency, 68 District 172 group, Third Bureau, independent special zone of Internet of things, Qian Shuai 16, Li Jianhua, China Internet of things digital currency In order to avoid the attack of network security, we need to change the group name from time to time, and so on. These fraud groups are all advocating various high return projects under the guise of patriotism ([Cai Baiping Asian investment bank project], [169 yuan project], [958 group benefiting the country and the people project (charity enriching Chen Yuying team project)], [charity enriching the people (958 group 51 single) project table 22 yuan, supplementary payment 20 yuan], [2 Yuan Li Yunlong (love) China Chen Yuying foundation project], [10 yuan silver fund fee - 958 group], [Ministry of finance project charity enriching the people Chen Yuying team (100 yuan) project] [18 new projects E-form charity enriching Chen Yuying team on April 9, 2017], [Chen Yuying 200000 Lika project pay 17 yuan - Li qiuqiong], [ABC card 10 yuan silver fund charity enriching Chen Yuying team Jintan Wang Jufang Shanghai Xue gendi team], [State Council's notice and declaration form on the state's welfare for meritorious persons], [State Council's notice and declaration form on the state's welfare for meritorious persons] [3 platform reward form, March 29, 2017], [Dutch crowdfunding project], [International Plum Blossom Association salary payment project], [ease fund settlement fee payment project], [Chinese national welfare fund 60 yuan project], [Guanghua Foundation (20 + 116 yuan) love fund settlement fee payment project], [harmonious home Shanghai team 9.9 yuan project], [China national welfare fund 60 yuan project], [Guanghua Foundation (20 + 116 yuan) love fund settlement fee payment project], [harmonious home Shanghai team 9.9 yuan project] [key meeting card fee for unfreezing national assets of bird's nest on April 25, 2017], [US dollar unfreezing (19667 + Xinbao 170) project], [platform reward fund project], [37 group project of four southwest teams of targeted poverty alleviation], [38 group project of four southwest teams of targeted poverty alleviation], [20 yuan tax paid for 16 yuan Chen Yuying project - 958 group], [investigation on targeted poverty alleviation of General Office of the State Council], [investigation on targeted poverty alleviation of General Office of the State Council] [Ningbo team Ministry of Finance and Red Cross donation project], [218 yuan project], [55 yuan project], [668 yuan project], [1680 yuan project], [35 + 23 yuan project of Sanfeng foundation of guoyuhuan East China Bureau], [Shanghai group of 958 national charity fund members], [20 yuan project of 958 group charity enriching people], [20 yuan project of guoyuhuan East China Bureau] [1000 yuan people's livelihood membership card]... And so on, Semi militarized management was adopted to incite nationalist sentiment. Everyone was required to change the background of their head portraits to red and take formal photos. Moreover, the flag was raised every morning, and activities were held at night when they went to bed. Everyone also had to sing together. In addition, ordinary members are not allowed to talk or pull people into the group at will. All kinds of so-called high return project report documents in the group, brainwashing MP3 lecture recordings of backbone members (such as voice content of CAI Baiping's speech, which was exposed by the Ministry of civil affairs of the people's Republic of China on December 16, 2016 pretending to be vice mayor of Nanjing and national executive president of aiib) (such as propaganda of Qi Lihua 169 project), photos of national leaders of PS presiding over the charity fund distribution meeting All kinds of fake central red head documents emerge one after another. Every night, there are propagandists to organize lectures. In addition to participating in these activities within the group, people in the group also need to sign a letter of commitment, resolutely follow the group leader, make rational use of donations, refuse to buy foreign procts, be willing and bear legal responsibility. In the context of swindlers, the old people are making contributions to the national rejuvenation. Deception not only brings persecution to the victims' families economically, but also some people are stubborn and even threaten to sever their relationship with their close relatives in order to accomplish their "great cause". Very bad nature (similar to MLM brainwashing money)! The consequences are very serious (property lost, family broken)! Extremely corrupt morality (cheating with patriotic feelings)
it is suggested to go to the official website of the central bank for consultation. Digital currency has huge investment risks and should be invested carefully. Digital currency in China generally refers to bitcoin, Ruitai currency, Laite currency and other digital cryptocurrency.
the digital currency that the central bank plans to launch is different from the mainstream digital cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin, Ruitai and Laite.
Hello, where are the first batch of pilot cities of the central bank's digital currency? Do you think they are well deserved super first tier cities "Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen"? I want to tell you that it's not all right. Except Shenzhen, the other three cities are Cheng, Suzhou and xiong'an new area. At present, Shenzhen is the earliest city to launch digital currency. On October 9, Shenzhen issued 10 million digital currency. 50000 people, 200 yuan per person, can enjoy the welfare, which is distributed to everyone free of charge through the way of wagging number. Here, I can only envy you. The implementation of digital currency is so fast. The friends in the pilot cities are lucky. I just want to watch you win the lottery
the first batch of pilot cities are selected in these four cities, which is the first step for digital currency to go to the whole country. When it matures in the future, it will be promoted to more pilot cities. So don't worry, just wait. Even if our city is not a pilot, it doesn't matter. Next time it will be our city. The pilot is just to test the stability of the system, and we don't have a great chance to get the red envelope of digital currency. There are so many people in Shenzhen, and only 50000 numbers are selected. Here we would like to express our support and thanks to the cities selected as the pilot cities of digital currency
the media's attention to the central bank's digital currency has increased significantly, especially after Zuckerberg testified in Congress on the Libra issue and Christina Lagarde acknowledged the "clear demand" for stable currency at her first media reception as president of the European Central Bank, which seems to have changed the public's view on this matter, Let many people in cryptocurrency community think that cbdcs is in sight<
according to the latest survey report released by the bank for International Settlements, central banks in the past seven years have been investigating this technology and assessing its impact. Of the 63 central banks surveyed, 55 said they were unlikely to issue cbdcs in the next three years, and only one reported that they were "highly likely to issue large-scale cbdcs in the next three to six years."
although the proportion of central banks studying cbdcs is very high, the crux of the problem is that it is mainly theoretical and investigative work. Only five central banks have concted more in-depth research and real project development or experimentation - but that still does not mean that they will necessarily issue cbdcs
through close observation, it is more and more obvious that both Libra recently released by Facebook and the new stable currency assets have had a significant impact on the central bank. Today's situation took hundreds of years to form, but it changed in a few months; Competition, the most terrifying and unfamiliar concept that has never been thought of before and penetrated into the elite society of central banks, is now knocking at the door
it can be said that the solution to the current situation is still unclear. Some people who are familiar with these things even say that they are bluffing. However, in Lagarde's own words, the slow and wait-and-see regulatory approach can no longer meet the needs
1. What is central bank digital currency<
what is the difference between central bank digital currency CBDC and other digital currencies
CBDC is a new form of currency, which is directly issued by the central bank in digital form as legal tender. The current form of legal currency is cash, reserve deposit or balance settlement< There are two main differences between CBDC and other digital currencies (including cryptocurrency and other forms of central bank currency):
1. CBDC has nothing to do with cryptoassets. They're not decentralized, they don't have to be blockchain based, and they're certainly not anonymous, they're not unlicensed, they're not censored< 2. Contrary to the current digital cash, the operation structure of CBDC will be different from other forms of central bank currency. CBDC has more powerful functions. They are programmable, can generate interest, can be cleared in near real time, and have cheaper handling charges and wider openness
when designing CBDC, the speed of central banks is different. Different central banks adopt their own approach. However, in general, there are three problems being explored: whether CBDC should be based on token or account number, whether CBDC should be batch (only open to banks) or retail (open to the public), and whether it should be based on DLT
when CBDC is to be implemented, things will become complicated, and there are many thorny problems to be considered
for example, once CBDC is launched, does it need to cancel cash? Should CBDC carry interest? Should they have face value like cash? Or linked to the total price index? What impact will this have on commercial banks? What about anonymity and privacy? All these questions need to be answered<
2. Motivation for issuing CBDC
in the 2017 staff discussion paper, the Bank of Canada gave six reasons for issuing CBDC in an article entitled "central bank digital currency: motivation and impact":
1. Ensure that the central bank provides sufficient cash to the public, and maintain the seigniorage revenue of the central bank
2, Support non-traditional monetary policy
3. Rece overall risk and improve financial stability
4. Improve payment competitiveness
5. Promote financial inclusiveness
6. Curb criminal activities
looking back at the bank for International Settlements survey we analyzed earlier, payment security and domestic efficiency are selected as the most important motives of the central bank. According to a large number of papers published by the central bank and other large financial institutions, for developed countries, the transformation into a cashless society is the main driving factor, while for developing countries, financial inclusiveness, cost rection and operational efficiency are the main motivation
throughout the rest of the reports and the literature that can be found, the fierce competition brought about by bitcoin and other innovations in the cryptocurrency instry, as well as the clear need for "one step ahead", of course, are not listed as the reasons for issuing CBDC< The advantages and potential risks of CBDC are very low.
if the central bank starts to launch CBDC and succeeds in the end, there are many potential benefits
from a technical point of view, CBDC is much better than the current form of legal currency. They can be tracked better, collect taxes more conveniently, transmit monetary policy better, have better financial inclusiveness, and rece the cost of procing physical currency
the most obvious advantage is that payment is cheaper and faster, whether it is domestic payment or cross-border payment
in addition to the design and implementation problems, a key problem of issuing CBDC is that CBDC may increase the risk of bank operation. However, this only happens when banks promise that their deposits can be converted into CBDC on demand, which is not necessarily the case, according to the Bank of England document
4. Facts on the ground
how far is it from us to see a real CBDC appear in the market? It's hard to estimate, but at present, we can sum up the current situation in one sentence: all talk but no practice
if we put aside the failed digital currencies of Ecuador, Tunisia and Venezuela, we can only do theoretical research, a small amount of experiments, and issue some feasible CBDC issuance announcements supported by the state in the future
the most famous CBDC projects in progress are: e-peso in Uruguay (the project was successfully tested in 2018), DCEP in China, "project Inthanon" in Thailand, e-krona in Sweden (still in the research stage)...
5. The revolution has not yet been successful, and comrades still need to work hard
considering the factors mentioned above, Most of the headlines about CBDC's upcoming release are groundless. All projects scheled to be released this year have been delayed
in fact, there is still a long way to go for the birth of CBDC, and to convince the public, we need more than a statement. Given the current situation, it seems that CBDC and other cryptocurrencies may not affect each other - at least for now.
The digital currency developed by the central bank has such a definition: encrypted digital string representing specific amount guaranteed and signed by the central bank . In a broad sense, digital currency includes a wide range of aspects, including electronic currency, virtual currency and legal digital currency. But strictly speaking, the digital currency developed by the central bank refers to legal digital currency
electronic currency is the digitalization of legal tender, including our common bank cards, Internet banking, electronic cash, Alipay and so on. No matter what the form of these electronic money is and through which institutions it circulates, its original source is the legal money issued by the central bank
In contrast, virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. For example, Tencent Q coin and other game coins, such virtual currency is mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment; Bitcoin, for example, solves the problem of decentralization and distrust through blockchain technology, realizes global circulation, and is sought after all over the world. In other words, virtual currency can only be closed in the network circulation, and digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency, bitcoin is illegalthe digital currency researched and issued by the central bank is indexed RMB, which belongs to legal encrypted digital currency from the perspective of national schemes, and it is not only a payment tool but also a currency itself< the purpose of digital currency issued by the central bank is to replace physical cash, rece the cost of traditional paper currency issuance and circulation, and improve the convenience and transparency of economic transactions
hope to adopt
this rise mainly comes from the following aspects. When you invest in the underlying chain, you can use these aspects to measure the rising space of token value in the public chain itself
1) number of address of the holder: this can mainly reflect the degree of consensus
2) scarcity: it mainly depends on the circulation, whether the token has a burning mechanism, and at what speed it burns
3) Liquidity: how the trading volume is and how many exchanges it trades in
4) the increase after ICO
method 2: ecological DAPP airdrop
if you have experienced the market in 2017, So it should be no stranger that bitcoin will have a son (bitcoin cash, bitcoin gold, super bitcoin, etc.). Similarly, the airdrop of ecological DAPP for the underlying public chain is like bitcoin giving birth to a son. If the new DAPP developed based on public chain is born, in order to obtain the initial users, most of them will use a certain proportion of its underlying chain token airdrop to obtain the first batch of users. For example, recently, ontology is a project developed based on Neo, which is airdropped according to the proportion of 1neo: 0.1ont. These tokens dropped by DAPP project can also be traded in the secondary market and will appreciate. They are valuable
method 3: mining
if it is a consensus system of pow, you can buy mining machines (higher threshold) + earn some fees
if it is the consensus system of POS, large holders of currency can be selected as bookkeepers, and they can not find currency, but they can also earn some service charges
method 4: node voting dividend
this is a special way to make money. At this stage, it may only be possible in the way of dpos consensus system
in recent hot discussions, EOS gravitational region and EOS New York have expressed their own opinions on this issue.
