The central bank's understanding and views on the introductio
digital currency is likely to change the current world monetary pattern and become the mainstream of currency in the future
the essence of money is a tool to measure the price, from the most primitive shells, later copper coins, gold and silver, and now paper money. They do not have the value attribute, but when people give it the value measurement standard, it acts as a tool to measure the value. They are credit currencies. It is because of the strong credit endorsement of the state that the public recognizes them as the medium of goods exchange
this also means that you can go out later without anything. As long as you have money in your digital currency, you can buy anything you need. Later, with the development of the Internet of things, everything will be connected, and your clothes, shoes and bags may become the carrier of digital currency
at present, digital currency is still in the exploratory stage, and its use is still to download app, and then use it. Recently, Shenzhen has issued several rounds of red packets, each user can get 200 yuan red packets, which can be used in designated shopping malls, supermarkets, restaurants and many other places, and some enterprises use it to pay wages, and large-scale pilot will be implemented in the future

benefits of digital currency
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. It can also become a new monetary policy tool
at the same time, the central bank can affect the bank deposit and loan interest rate by adjusting the digital currency interest rate of the central bank, and help to break the zero interest rate lower limit
Digital currency can be understood as the digitalization of RMB, which has two obvious advantages: "no account payment" and "no network payment". After Facebook launched Libra this year, the central bank's digital currency has also stepped in. We see both challenges and opportunities
in a word, digital currency is still RMB in fact, but some changes have taken place in its form. We say that digital currency is of great significance. It not only enhances the security and controllability, but also makes counterfeit currency "invisible". In addition, the issuance of the central bank's digital currency is also concive to the central bank's more convenient and transparent management
when people are used to digital currency, paper money will graally withdraw from the circulation market and enter the collection field. In the new environment of payment and circulation, the traditional paper money will become a symbol of an era and a memory of people. The paper money that used to circulate in the market will also become a kind of cultural and artistic investment goods, active on the electronic disk of the post money card. And those earlier and even rarer coins will also stimulate their prices to rise in this situation. It can be seen that the central bank's graal promotion of digital currency will have a profound impact on people's living habits and investment and financial management, which is worth looking forward to Sohu)
however, digital currency does not have to be used for payment. Some domestic application-oriented digital currencies have begun to find another shortcut and come out with a different truth. For example, coin Ying China crowdfunding project token; Puyin group launched the tea based digital currency Puyin.
according to media reports, before the Spring Festival, the blockchain based digital bill trading platform promoted by the people's Bank of China has been successfully tested. After the Spring Festival, the digital currency Research Institute of the central bank will also be officially listed. This means that the people's Bank of China will become the first central bank to study digital currency and its real application.
