Digital currency Alibaba participates
so, what's the significance of this digital currency? Why do you have to work hard to do this? For most people, it really won't have any impact, but for a small number of people, it will have a great impact. This small group of people are those who engage in illegal activities
for example, if some people are corrupt and accept bribes, they specify that they can't let others put money on the bank card. That means they are directly arrested, but they can't be found with cash. If we restrict the large amount of cash consumption in the future, for example, if you have to spend more than 5000 at one time, you can't use cash, you need to use digital currency. In this way, those who have bribed tens of millions of cash in their families may not want to spend all their money in their lifetime. And their illegal income doesn't go to the society. It's just paper. They still occupy space at home. Once they start to spend money in digital currency, it's easy to find out. That is to say, all our income will be counted. Once they are involved in crimes, it's easy to be caught. At that time, there will be less Telecom fraud, This is the meaning of digital currency
