Whose is digital currency

1. digital currency is the abbreviation of digital currency. It is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy. It can not be completely equivalent to the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it is often used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games and other virtual space. At present, the central bank does not recognize or issue digital currency, and digital currency does not have to have a benchmark currency. The popular digital currencies in 2015 include bitcoin, bitstocks, etc. At present, there are thousands of digital currencies issued all over the world
in February 2017, the central bank made new progress in issuing digital currency. The block chain based digital bill trading platform promoted by the central bank has been tested successfully. The legal digital currency issued by the central bank has been put into trial operation on the platform. 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 be the first central bank to issue digital currency and carry out real application in the world
digital gold currency is an electronic currency named after the weight of gold. The typical unit of measurement for this currency is the Troy gram or troy ounces, although sometimes the golden Dinar is used. Digital gold currency is funded by gold storage without quota or decentralized quota. By January 2006, digital gold currency suppliers held more than 8.6 metric tons of gold as reserves, worth about $154 million
current situation
at present, all countries, including China, have not recognized the monetary attribute of bitcoin. Some functions of currency can be realized only in private special occasions
difference from virtual currency
digital currency can be divided into two categories: non cryptocurrency (i.e. digital gold currency, e.g. e-gold, and company issued currency, e.g. XRP) and cryptocurrency (i.e. bitcoin currency)
virtual money originally refers to non real money, but now it refers to money in network virtual economy. In the case of the connection between virtual and reality, virtual currency has its real value. Well known virtual currencies, such as online currency of Internet company, q-coin of Tencent company, q-point, roll counting of Shanda company, u-coin meter ticket launched by Sina (used for igome game), chivalrous Yuanbao (used for chivalrous road game), and grain silver (used for bixue Qingtian game)

2. Block Tianyan: digital currency is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency (which can be used for real goods and services transactions). In short, it is the electronization of RMB, which is equivalent to paper currency, but more flexible than paper currency. It can track the flow of your money and pay without the Internet

digital currency has the main characteristics of network packet. 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 money, the direct benefit of digital money to the central bank is not only to save the cost of paper money issuance, circulation and settlement, but also to enhance the central bank's ability to control funds.

3. Digital currency is a kind of legal tender, which must be issued by the central bank. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digital currency, which is not a network virtual currency, because it is not limited to virtual space, but is often used for real goods and services transactions, such as bitcoin, Wright coin, bitstock, etc. at present, there are thousands of digital currencies issued around the world

the digital currency launched by the central bank is a national sovereign currency, which is based on the digitalization of RMB. This is a piece of data generated by a complex algorithm, which contains blockchain and encryption technology, making it unique. The payment of Alipay and WeChat is not digital money, but only based on the payment realized by electronic accounts. Compared with the current pattern of "payment transfer collection" with the help of third-party payment, what digital currency needs to achieve is "decentralization", that is, to cancel the transfer link and directly hand over the money from the payer's account to the payee, so as to rece the payment cost in currency circulation

types of digital currency

according to different issuing or consensus mechanisms, it can be divided into four categories:

1, proof of work (POW)

proof of work. The system rewards are obtained through the mining of computing power to complete the issuance and distribution of currency. More work, more gain. Such as bitcoin, lightcoin (LTC)
the advantage is that the mining cost can form a monetary price support to a certain extent, and the disadvantage is that energy consumption and environmental protection are criticized< 2. Proof of stake (POS). Allocate the newly generated currency or interest according to the amount and time of cryptocurrency you hold. Such as dash and Neo
compared with pow, POS is more energy-saving, but it increases the security risk

3. The evolution scheme of delegated proof of stake (dpos)
POS. Similar to the voting mechanism of the board of directors, through the election of representatives to vote and make decisions, n accounting nodes are elected to create, verify, sign and supervise each other. Such as the grapefruit coin (EOS)
the advantage is high efficiency, but the problem is that it presents a semi centralized state

4. POW + POS hybrid mechanism
POW is mainly used to issue currency, and POS is used to maintain the system. For example, PPC

according to the project type, it can also be divided into four categories:

1. Currency category
digital currency issued for the purpose of transfer, payment and value storage. For example, bitcoin, bitcoin cash (BCH), Monroe (XmR), and grin

2. Public chain currency, that is, the digital currency issued by public chain projects, is generally the "fuel" for the application projects to run on the public chain. Such as eth, grapefruit coin, TRX and ont

3. Application token, that is, digital currency issued by decentralized application projects, is equivalent to equity or points. For example, OMG (payment application), GXC (data application), 1st (game application)

4. Platform currency, that is, the digital currency issued by the digital currency exchange, is equivalent to equity, points or fuel. For example, BNB, HT and okb.

4. Choosing legal and formal is the first premise

5.

When it comes to digital currency, your first reaction may be bitcoin or Libra, which Facebook plans to launch

from the perspective of usage scenarios, the central bank's digital currency does not pay interest, and can be used in small, retail and high-frequency business scenarios, which is no different from paper money. At the same time, the use should comply with all the existing regulations on cash management, anti money laundering and anti-terrorism financing

6. "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 package is composed of data code and identification code. The data code is the content to be transmitted, while the identification code indicates where the data package comes from and goes Definition of digital currency: the alternative currency in the form of electronic currency belongs to digiccy. Digital currency is an unregulated and digital currency, which is usually issued and managed by developers and accepted and used by members of a specific virtual community. The European Banking authority defines virtual currency as: the digital expression of value, which is not issued by the central bank or authorities, nor linked with legal currency, but because it is accepted by the public, it can be used as a means of payment, or can be transferred, stored or traded in electronic form. Digital currency can be considered as a virtual currency based on node network and digital encryption algorithm. The core characteristics of digital currency are mainly reflected in three aspects: first, e to some open algorithms, digital currency has no issuing subject, so no one or institution can control its issuing; ② Because the number of algorithm solutions is fixed, the total amount of digital currency is fixed, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of inflation caused by the overuse of virtual currency; ③ Because the transaction process needs the approval of each node in the network, the transaction process of digital currency is safe enough. The emergence of bitcoin poses a great challenge to the existing monetary system. Although it belongs to the generalized virtual currency, it is essentially different from the virtual currency issued by network enterprises, so it is called digital currency. This paper compares digital currency with electronic currency and virtual currency from the aspects of issuing subject, scope of application, issuing quantity, storage form, circulation mode, credit guarantee, transaction cost and transaction security.
