What can digital currency perform
digital currency is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency (which can be used for real goods and services transactions)
digital currency has the main characteristics of network packets. This kind of data packet is composed of data code and identification code. The data code is the content we need to transmit, while the identification code indicates where the data packet comes from and goes
based on the characteristics of digital currency, the direct benefit of digital currency to the central bank is not only to save the cost of note issuance, circulation and settlement, but also to enhance the central bank's ability to control funds
Electronic money and virtual money are called digital money. According to the definition of the European Central Bank, virtual money is issued by non central banks, credit institutions and e-money institutions, which can be used as the numerical expression of the value of currency substitutes in some cases{rrrrrrr}

Digital RMB does not pay interest, and can be used in small, retail and high-frequency business scenarios, which is no different from paper money. moreover, we can't refuse to accept the central bank's digital RMB because of its legal compensation. In fact, the concept of digital currency has been mentioned for several years. On August 29 this year, China Construction Bank added "digital currency" to its official app; Recharge digital wallet; And & lt; Digital currency & quot; Two submenus. This activity makes people excited. Is the digital currency really going to be issued? But just excited soon, I found that the two submenu completely offline
However, I would like to say that although the digital RMB itself is very safe and the central bank's digital currency should also carry out anti money laundering and anti terrorist financing, we should also prevent it from being used for online gambling and any cyber criminal activitiesdigital currency has the main characteristics of network packets.

first, we need to clarify the concept, definition, classification, functions and characteristics of digital currency, put forward the Chinese definition of digital currency, distinguish the similarities and differences and relations between legal digital currency and private digital currency in technical characteristics, economic characteristics and institutional arrangements, and discuss the process of digital currency performing monetary functions, And how to meet the requirements of a high-quality monetary system
Second, we need to conct in-depth research on the operation of digital currency, and explore the issuance, circulation, transaction and withdrawal mechanism of digital currency based on the al system of central bank and commercial bank. On this basis, the selection of technical route and key technology to meet its operation mechanism is discussed, and the key technology research and breakthrough are carried out
thirdly, we should study the effect and influence of digital currency on monetary and financial operation system
fourthly, based on the above research results, the scientific top-level design of digital currency supervision is formed, including the development and design of digital currency, the development of applicable regulatory coordination tools, and the selection of appropriate regulatory indicators
more importantly, the digital currency that the central bank plans to issue is different from bitcoin, Leyte, dogcoin, decent and other digital currencies.
Digital currency is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, the blockchain technology it relies on has been decentralized and can be used in other fields besides digital currency , which is one of the reasons why bitcoin is popular; On the other hand, if digital currency is widely used by the public as a kind of currency, it will have a huge impact on the effectiveness of monetary policy, financial infrastructure, financial market, financial stability and so on. Specific Wu Xiaoxia:
1. Impact on monetary policy
if digital currency is widely accepted and can play the role of currency, it will weaken the effectiveness of monetary policy and bring difficulties to policy-making
because digital currency issuers are usually unregulated third parties, money is created outside the banking system, and the amount of circulation depends entirely on the wishes of the issuers, which will lead to the instability of money supply. In addition, the authorities are unable to monitor the issuance and circulation of digital currency, which will lead to the inability to accurately judge the economic operation and bring trouble to policy-making, At the same time, it will weaken the effectiveness of policy transmission and implementation
2. Impact on financial infrastructure. The use of distributed ledgers also poses challenges to trading, clearing and settlement, as it promotes the disintermediation of traditional service providers in different markets and infrastructures. These changes may have potential impacts on market infrastructure other than retail payment systems, such as large payment systems, securities settlement systems or trading databases
3. The impact on financial intermediation and financial market in a broad sense. As a financial intermediary, banks perform the ties of acting supervisors and supervise borrowers on behalf of depositors
generally, banks also carry out liquidity and maturity conversion business to realize the financing from depositors to borrowers. If digital currency and distributed ledger are widely used, any subsequent disintermediation may have an impact on savings or credit evaluation mechanisms
4. The impact of security risks and financial stability
assuming that digital currency is recognized by the public, its use increases significantly and replaces legal currency to a certain extent, negative events such as network attacks on user terminals related to digital currency will lead to currency fluctuations, which will have an impact on the financial order and the real economy
in addition, the virtual currency based on blockchain technology is usually held by a few people at the beginning. For example, the first purchase of bitcoin in May 2010 was $25 pizza purchased by 10000 BTC, and the price of each bitcoin rose to $1200 in more than three years by the end of 2013
