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

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

digital currency is the best tool to replace cash:
fan Yifei, vice governor of the central bank, said that the central bank's digital currency focuses on replacing M0 (i.e., banknotes and coins), maintains the properties and main features of cash, and meets the needs of portability and anonymity. It will be the best tool to replace cash
Mu Changchun, director of the digital currency Research Institute of the people's Bank of China, once described such a use scenario: as long as you and I have DC / EP digital wallets on their mobile phones, we don't even need the network. As long as the mobile phone has electricity, if two mobile phones touch each other, we can transfer the digital currency in one person's digital wallet to another person. Digital money does not need to bind any bank account when it is paid, unlike WeChat and Alipay bank. p>
2019 August 21st, the official account of WeChat central bank released two articles on digital currency.
It is not currently available
at present, the Central Bank of China has not issued and approved the digital currency of issuers and investors
However, at the beginning of the year, the central bank held a seminar on digital currency, at which it made it clear that it was necessary to issue digital currency as soon as possible, and the central bank put the issue of digital currency on the agendahowever, so far, the central bank has not issued any digital currency, and Zhou Xiaochuan, the governor of the central bank, said that the time is not ripe to issue digital currency. Moreover, the digital currency issued by the central bank is different from bitcoin, Ruitai, Laite and other digital cryptocurrencies, and the digital currency issued by the central bank is not decentralized
when the central bank issues digital currency, it needs to establish a basic digital currency system. In this system, the central bank is in charge of the digital currency issuing bank, the commercial bank is in charge of the bank, and the public and indivials hold digital wallets. This is not much different from the existing monetary system in essence, but the managed currency is changed from paper money to digital cryptocurrency
in terms of issuing mechanism, there are two modes:
one is the traditional mode of "central bank commercial bank", that is, the central bank issues digital currency from the issuing bank of the central bank to the Bank of the commercial bank. When an indivial withdraws money from the commercial bank, the digital currency is transferred from the commercial bank to the personal digital wallet
another mode is the "central bank public" mode, that is, the central bank can directly issue digital currency from the currency issuing bank to the digital wallet of the public and indivials. In essence, no matter which issuing mode, money is ultimately held by the public, which is the debt of the central bank to the public
