extended data
in the third-party payment mode, the buyer uses the account provided by the third-party platform to pay for the goods (to the third party), and the third party notifies the seller of the arrival of the goods and requires delivery; After receiving the goods, inspecting the goods and confirming, the buyer shall notify the third party for payment; The third party transfers the money to the seller's account
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:
1. Due to some open algorithms, digital currency has no issuing subject, so no one or organization can control its issuing
Because the number of algorithm solutions is determined, the total amount of digital currency is fixed, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of inflation caused by the overuse of virtual currency3. Because the transaction process needs the approval of each node in the network, the transaction process of digital currency is safe enough
many partners who are more interested in investment and financial management may also hear about some digital currencies such as blockchain in their daily life, and there are various subdivisions for these blockchains for example, the blockchain model with or without currency or some data or digital currency will have different performance. From the current point of view, whether some methods of raising some funds through initial issuance are legal or not, such behavior has always existed with the development of blockchain. Moreover, there are no relevant regulations in the law, so there are no clear provisions on whether this kind of behavior is legal or not
we know some concepts of blockchain, but most of them are words like decentralization or leverage. However, the whole operation mode of non currency blockchain is inconsistent with these definitions in principle . Therefore, when you hear about some non currency blockchain, you will feel that this mode is against the law or against the traditional financial investment. There is a great difference between this kind of non currency blockchain and the traditional blockchain, so it can not be called a real blockchain
In recent years, the rise of financial technology drives the digital and intelligent development of finance, and the form of money is also evolving. Recently, the news of digital currency has attracted people's attention, and there is still a lot of gap with the current online payment
E-cash, like paper money, has no value in itself. It only depends on the credit of the issuer to reflect its value. It is a kind of digital information composed of 0 and 1 signed by the bank through electronic means, so it is also called digital currency. It is different from the credit card used now, because the credit card itself is not money, it is just a means of transfer, and e-cash itself is a kind of money, it can be directly used to buy goods. Although it is the same as gold coin and paper money, it does not need physical entity like them. Instead, it can make electronic payment only through data exchange to realize the function of cash. E-cash has the following characteristics:
one is the rapidity of mobile. It can send cash to distant places instantaneously through the network, so it has extremely fast mobility. Because it is a kind of digital information, like the usual data, it can be put in the computer and transmitted by the network. Moreover, it can be sent directly to the store terminal by the consumer terminal, so there is no need to pay the service charge to the intermediate settlement institution. However, because it can transfer large amounts of money to distant places instantaneously, it also increases the monitoring difficulty of financial management institutions, and also causes tax, legal, exchange rate instability and other problems
The other is the anonymity of payment (i.e. it is impossible to know who originally owned the money). Using cash can also achieve anonymity, but it is difficult to achieve it when using electronic settlement services (such as credit card). With the electronization of various social systems, there is a tendency to automatically collect personal secret information. Payment behavior is often the source of all kinds of personal secret information. Therefore, the use of e-cash will be an effective means of self-defense in the future computer society. However, the anonymity of e-cash will also provide the convenience of money laundering for money of unknown origin, so we should try to prevent it The third is to improve the safety. Because the security measures it adopts are far more perfect than the current credit card, much safer than checking accounts and savings accounts, and will not be stolen or robbed like banknotes and coins Fourthly, it can save cost. Banknotes need to be printed, transported, preserved, counted, anti-counterfeited and secured, which requires a lot of expenses. It is reported that the annual cost of transporting tangible currency in the United States is as high as US $6 billion, and that in the United Kingdom is as high as 200 million pounds. The cost of money settlement and transportation between the world bank system accounts for 5% of its total management fee. All these expenses can be saved when using e-cashlegal representative: Wu Weijun
