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

3. The central bank is about to issue its own digital currency CBDC

4. The Chinese version of CBDC is described as digital RMB, which is issued by the people's Bank of China, operated by designated operators and exchanged to the public. It is based on the generalized account system, supports the loose coupling function of bank accounts, is equivalent to banknotes and coins, and has value characteristics and legal compensation
what we call DC / EP is the Chinese version of the central bank's digital currency, translated as "digital currency and electronic payment instruments"
the center for International Settlements (BIS) and the Committee on payment and market infrastructure (CPMI), two authoritative international organizations, jointly concted two questionnaires on more than 60 central banks in 2018 and 2019.

5. No matter from personal point of view or from Yi Gang's point of view, regarding digital monetary policy, from the standpoint of the central bank, it has revealed:
first, to maintain the continuity of monetary policy, not to release water, not to shrink abruptly
Second, it will not change the fact that bitcoin is not legally recognized
thirdly, strengthen supervision, pay attention to safety and maintain stable and neutral development
Fourth, to serve the development of the real economy
considering the consistent policy of the Chinese government on digital currency, maintaining stability and continuity should be the current orientation and trend< In addition, although Yi Gang pointed out at the Boao Forum for Asia that he would take a strict attitude towards digital currency, it does not mean that he will stop studying digital currency. At present, the central bank is studying how digital currency can serve the real economy in a better form, develop safely in the best form and avoid possible negative effects, Let digital currency serve the economy better
in spite of stricter supervision, it is still believed that the central bank will adopt a combination of easing and blocking measures for the development of digital currency in the future.

6. In fact, the central bank has been studying digital currency for a long time. From the perspective of historical development trend, money has always evolved with the development of technological progress and economic activities. From the early physical money, commodity money to the later credit money, it is a natural choice to adapt to the development of human commercial society. As the currency of the previous generation, paper money has low technology content. From the perspective of safety and cost, it is the general trend to be replaced by new technology and new procts. In particular, with the development of the Internet and the great changes in payment methods all over the world, the establishment of digital currency issuance and circulation system is very necessary for the construction of financial infrastructure and the promotion of economic quality, efficiency and upgrading.

7. On January 20, 2016, the digital currency seminar of the people's Bank of China announced that the research on digital currency has achieved phased results. Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the people's Bank of China, attended the meeting, and fan Yifei, vice governor of the people's Bank of China, presided over the meeting. The meeting affirmed the value of digital currency in recing the issuance of traditional currency, and indicated that the central bank was exploring the issue of digital currency. However, Zhou Xiaochuan later said that the digital currency to be issued by the central bank is different from bitcoin, Ruitai currency and vitality currency.

8. PPP is not a digital currency issued by the central bank. At present, China's central bank 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. The central bank put the issue of digital currency on the agenda. However, so far, the central bank has not issued any digital currency, and Zhou Xiaochuan, the governor of the central bank, said that the actual issue of digital currency is not mature. Moreover, the digital currency issued by the central bank is different from bitcoin, Ruitai, Laite and other digital cryptocurrencies. The digital currency issued by the central bank is not decentralized.

9. It seems that there is no other way to play, like bitcoin and so on, all use mining machine

10. The name of research and development used by the central bank is DCEP, which is actually electronic payment. What is paid is digital, not paper money. Digital money also has monetary properties. The study of digital currency is not to realize the application of a certain technical solution, but to pursue the convenience and low cost of retail payment system, as well as security and privacy protection
at present, there are many comments on digital currency, criticizing that digital currency is not applied in retail payment, but in virtual asset trading, which is not in line with the direction of our financial assets serving the real economy. Therefore, we need not be too anxious in this regard, steady and orderly research and development, focusing on serving the real economy, recing costs and preventing excessive speculation
at present, bitcoin, Ethereum and wikilink, which are popular in the market, are actually not liked by the central bank and are highly speculative.
