Digital currency is the means of payment
digital currency is also different from virtual currency. For example, the well-known Q coin and the money recharged in various games are virtual currency. These virtual currencies can only be purchased with real currency, but cannot be converted into real currency
in the world, bitcoin is probably the most famous digital currency. In addition, there are "Wright coin", "Dog Coin" and "Yuan Bao coin" in China.

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
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 a digital representation of value, which is not issued by the central bank or authorities, nor linked with legal currency. However, because it is accepted by the public, it can be used as a means of payment, or it can be transferred, stored or traded in electronic form

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
with the continuous development and progress of society, great changes have taken place in our lifestyle, such as mobile payment and online shopping, which have brought great convenience to our life. Since the birth of online shopping, online payment has become a part of our life
online shopping is convenient, but it is also through the middle of a "invisible" process of payment, such as we bought something on the Internet, first pick out what you love, then you have to pay the problem:
now most people use Alipay is the way of payment, then first Alipay will receive payment request. Then it initiates the protocol to the network, saves the information to the database, and forwards the request to the bank. When the Alipay account shows that the dection is successful, it will have to be connected to the bank through the Internet. Then the buyer will confirm receipt after receiving the goods, so that the buyer will dect the money before transferring to the seller's account. Not only is the transaction process too cumbersome and complex, it is clear that the transaction between the two parties has to go through a series of links. More importantly, once the intermediate payment link collapses, the whole transaction will stop, and the subsequent operation is really troublesome
in fact, the popular explanation is that when I want to buy something, I give the money to the middleman and ask him to help the seller. If the middleman makes any mistakes, it may lead to the situation that the money can not be recovered and the goods can not be obtained
is there any way to simplify the transaction process and improve the transaction efficiency? Yes, the current hot blockchain technology and digital currency payment can better solve the above problems:
blockchain has become one of the hot topics in the past two years. Blockchain can replace the existence of these third-party services:
first, blockchain can not be tampered with. Every transaction will be distributed to each block for record keeping, Then use cryptography to verify, any malicious damage or record deletion will be found, so the whole process of shopping will be seen. Blockchain strengthens the trust, traceability and transparency in the transaction, making our transaction faster and more convenient<
the second is the unique payment characteristics of digital currency:
the decentralization of digital currency can eliminate the intervention of the third party, and there is no need to worry about the problems of the third party, resulting in the whole transaction payment process can not continue
the point-to-point transmission of digital currency saves the time link in the whole payment process and realizes fast payment, so that both parties can receive money quickly and save time
openness and transparency of digital currency: except for cash transactions, all transactions based on online payment are just a series of numbers, and all transactions of digital currency are open and transparent. You can check the transaction records of all payments, which can ensure the security of the overall commodity payment
and like China's booming WeChat, Alipay and other payment platforms, cross-border payment has been realized, but there is a problem that fees will be more expensive than domestic payments, and the settlement cycle will be longer than domestic. In general, efficiency will be slow, time is long, and hand renewal is expensive. Digital money will make traditional transactions "no longer traditional". That will also make cross-border payment more efficient: digital currency is not subject to the "constraints" of any country or bank. Based on blockchain technology, it can just bypass this centralized system with low handling charges, and its point-to-point transmission transaction characteristics can effectively improve the current problems of long-time and high cost of cross-border payment
the times have been developing, and the way of life is constantly improving. Online shopping and payment are born from our development, with both advantages and disadvantages. Then we will try our best to push everything in a better direction
digital currency is on the rise. Although the current digital currency is not perfect, many countries have begun to use digital currency as a payment method. Due to the various characteristics of digital currency, bitcoin, Ethernet, Las Y2, QTP (wechat ID: yingbivc), ASEC and other digital currencies are being actively used. They can not only simplify the traditional online payment transaction process, but also circulate payment around the world and rece exchange rate issues such as handling charges. Don't just look at digital currency with one eye. Maybe in the near future, it will open the era of digital currency full payment!
digital currency has the main characteristics of network packets. 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 currency, the direct benefit of digital currency to the central bank is not only to save the cost of note issuance, circulation and settlement, but also to enhance the central bank's ability to control funds
electronic currency and virtual currency are collectively referred to as digital currency. According to the definition of the European Central Bank, virtual money is issued by non central banks, credit institutions and e-money institutions, which can be used as the numerical expression of the value of currency substitutes in some cases
means of payment
the process of digital currency trading through the platform is as follows:
(1) investors should first register their accounts and obtain digital currency accounts and US dollar or other foreign exchange accounts
(2) users can buy and sell digital currency with the money in their cash account, just like buying and selling stocks and futures
(3) the trading platform will sort the buy requests and sell requests according to the rules and start to match them. If they meet the requirements, the transaction will be concluded
(4) a buy or sell request may be partially executed e to the difference between the buy and sell volumes submitted by users.
on the evening of October 8, 2020, the official microblog of Shenzhen Internet Information Office announced that in order to promote the construction of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Dawan District, and in combination with the local consumption promotion policy, Shenzhen Municipal People's government recently launched a pilot project of digital RMB red envelope with the people's Bank of China. This means that the digital RMB in the process of practical application has been an important step forward
when we talk about digital currency, we usually think of bitcoin and other folk currencies based on blockchain technology. But they are essentially different
Yang Jun, a researcher of digital currency, introced to time finance that cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin are basically decentralized and illegal, and have no legal compensation, so there are great risks. The central bank's digital currency, like paper money, is centralized, legal, and has national credit endorsement
from the perspective of usage mode, digital RMB is more similar to the existing third-party mobile payment, but has the advantages of higher credit endorsement, stronger privacy management, more advanced means of payment and so on< According to Yang Jun's analysis, in the future, digital RMB will have a huge impact and challenge on the existing third-party payment means
it can be said that digital RMB "has come out"
for digital RMB, the central bank has long had a layout. In 2016, the central bank established the digital currency Research Institute. At the end of 2017, with the approval of the State Council, the central bank organized some commercial banks and relevant institutions to jointly develop the digital RMB system (DC / EP). In April 2020, digital RMB will be tested for the first time in Shenzhen, Suzhou, xiong'an, Cheng and the future Winter Olympics
Zhang Jinxi, director of Guangdong Creative Economy Research Association and chairman of Yimi Holding Co., Ltd., the initiator of blockchain instrial intelligent park, told time finance that the last closed test was limited in personnel and use scenarios, mainly to test the performance of digital RMB
"the first is the technical feasibility and security, the second is the performance of high-frequency payment and exchange, and the third is the convenience and friendliness of payment." Zhang Jinxi said.
