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

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

3. The people's Bank of China has designed a two-tier architecture for digital currency
specifically, according to Yao Qian, director of China digital currency Research Institute, the design framework of central bank's digital currency is mainly convenient and efficient, safe and controllable, and popular development
as for the two-tier framework, the two-tier framework is the central bank and the commercial bank, based on the account and wallet. This framework is to combine the original bank account system with the account system based on digital currency wallet
in blockchain technology, digital currency is separated from legal currency system and bank account system. Otherwise, together, it will cause chaos. Considering this problem, Yao Qian introced digital currency wallet into the account system of commercial banks. In this way, an account can manage both electronic currency and digital currency. Of course, this kind of design has a great impact on the current banking system, but it is also a resource for commercial banks with mature system
how does digital currency wallet work in commercial banks
bank accounts and digital currency wallets of commercial banks have common management features. In this case, bank accounts and digital wallets have different positioning. According to the wallet standard designed by the central bank, a wallet is equal to a safe deposit box. According to the requirements of customers, the bank will manage the safe deposit box as all the properties of cryptocurrency. This framework adds a Digital Wallet ID field to the bank account. In this way, the wallet has the function of a safe deposit box and does not participate in the business, so as to avoid affecting the core business of the bank
digital currency transfer can be directly transferred in the commercial banking system, or through the note issuing bank using the client-side digital wallet, direct point-to-point transactions, so that there is no need to rely on inter-bank payment between account banks< In a word, digital currency wallet is the personal wallet in the commercial banking system
theoretically, the payment system deals with demand deposits, while digital currency is in the category of cash
is the digital currency issued by the central bank decentralized
Yao Qian said that the biggest issue facing the instry now is whether decentralized distributed ledger should be used at the top level
Central Bank digital currency is more convenient and can develop into controllable anonymity through centralized issuance and account based weak association. However, in the digital world, we cannot confuse the economy and finance behind the numbers. Although they are all numbers, they represent different assets, so the central bank will keep them in mind when designing. We want to have a mature financial infrastructure for legal digital currency, but considering that the note issuing bank is only responsible for the digital currency itself, and the account bank is responsible for the actual management business, so as long as the specific application is implemented, the note issuing bank and the account bank will perform their ties and do their best
then the characteristics of the central bank's digital currency are
1. Digital currency, like RMB, has stable value
2. The operation mode is the same as RMB, which is endorsed by the national credit and issued by the central bank, and all commercial banks exchange it into the market
3. Digital currency issuance relies on big data, because it has the possibility of real-time collection of currency bookkeeping, flow, transaction, etc., which can provide help in anti money laundering
4. After digital currency replaces paper currency, it will play a positive role in preventing counterfeit banknotes, changing change, and preventing damage and loss ring transaction storage
5. It will rece the waste of resources. The proction and printing of paper money need cost, while the proction of digital currency depends on big data, so it will rece the waste of resources
therefore, with the advent of the central bank's digital currency, personal participation will have less opportunities to make money
I hope it can help you
hope to adopt it

4. The specific time has not been determined, but it has been concerned for three years
more than three years ago, the people's Bank of China started to organize a seminar on digital currency, and then set up the digital currency Research Institute of the central bank. The latest action is to jointly organize distributed R & D with the instry and cooperate with the market

the name of R & D 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 attributes. 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
the digital currencies of bitcoin, wikilink and Ethereum provide some reference for the digital currencies issued by the central bank, especially blockchain.

5. If you look closely at these two fields, you will find that they have begun to develop away from each other. Although digital currency is technically inseparable from blockchain, blockchain technology is not limited to digital currency. It is favored by various technical companies in terms of proct traceability, data transparency and distributed consensus. So what impact does the central bank's entry into digital currency have on the blockchain instry, It's not going to change much. At present, the ant gold clothing behind Alipay is the largest patent application company in the global block chain.
what benefits most from this is the domestic currency circle. In 2017, digital currency and related fund-raising activities were banned in China, which is quite negative in the eyes of ordinary people. In fact, the central bank's initiative to explore into cryptocurrency is the recognition of the core concept of digital currency. With this incentive, domestic enterprises will actively enter the instry and inject fresh blood into the instry, which is the most important
about this, you can see the reports of blockchain media, such as golden finance, coin easy to know column, chain news and so on.

1. High liquidity

every good and reliable digital currency is essential. Every digital currency should have strong liquidity, not only in the scope of third-party trading platform, but also in offline entities or countries like bitcoin

Second, lower volatility

generally, volatility comes from the influence of third-party trading platform, which is similar to stock trading. Strong operators need to control the market to prevent the digital currency market from soaring or plummeting. Therefore, the volatility of a digital currency can show whether the digital currency can develop stably

Third, tradability one of the most important properties of digital currency is tradability. If a digital currency does not have tradability, the digital currency is basically useless. Only when a digital currency has tradability can it have liquidity and volatility

Fourth, the nature of decentralization digital currency has the characteristics of decentralization. Digital money is neither controlled nor manipulated by centralized entities. That is to say, no indivial or third party can obtain the user's digital currency

Fifth, the value of digital currency is increasing based on the market demand. It is not subject to government regulation or operation, which is not like legal money. The rise and fall of digital currency price depends on the transactions between users on the third-party trading platform

7. Digital currency is a kind of legal encrypted digital currency, which is not only a payment tool but also a currency. It is essentially different from Alipay and WeChat payment. Alipay, WeChat payment and mobile phone banks are all electronic money, not digital money. These are all payment methods based on electronic accounts, which are in essence just a process of informatization of legal currency, not digital currency in a strict sense
moreover, it is totally different from q-coin and bitcoin. Commonly known as q-coin and bitcoin, these belong to virtual currency. Compared with digital currency, the most fundamental difference lies in the difference of issuers

virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency. The issuer is not the central bank, and it can only circulate in a specific virtual environment, such as Tencent Q coin and other game coins; 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 illegal digital currency

8. In order to prove time and ensure the security of the whole network
without this calculation, the whole system is not secure, so these seemingly meaningless calculations are to ensure everyone's security
