extended data:
practical significance
the digitalization of central bank's currency helps to optimize the central bank's monetary payment function, improve the central bank's monetary status and the effectiveness of monetary policy. The central bank's digital currency can become an interest bearing asset to meet the holder's reserve demand for safe assets, and can also become the lower limit of bank deposit interest rate
can also become a new monetary policy tool. At the same time, the central bank can affect the bank's deposit and loan interest rate by adjusting the central bank's digital currency interest rate, and help break the zero interest rate lower limit
operation system
fan Yifei, vice governor of the people's Bank of China, said in the article that the digital currency of the people's Bank of China should adopt a two-tier operation system. This model does not change the relationship between creditor's rights and debt of currency in circulation, does not change the existing money supply system and al account structure, does not constitute a competition for commercial banks' deposit currency, and does not increase commercial banks' dependence on the interbank lending market
will not affect the lending ability of commercial banks, and will not lead to the phenomenon of "financial disintermediation". At the same time, because it does not affect the existing monetary policy transmission mechanism, it will not strengthen the pro cyclical effect under the pressure environment, and it can improve the convenience and security of payment, and it also has the credit advantage of central bank endorsement
what we call DC / EP is the Chinese version of the central bank's digital currency, translated as "digital currency and electronic payment instruments"
the center for International Settlements (BIS) and the Committee on payment and market infrastructure (CPMI), two authoritative international organizations, jointly concted two questionnaires on more than 60 central banks in 2018 and 2019. The content of the questionnaire includes the work progress of central banks on digital currency, the motivation of studying digital currency and the possibility of issuing digital currency. 70% of central banks said they are (or will be) involved in the research of digital currency

Zhou Xiaochuan pointed out that as legal tender, digital currency must be issued by the central bank. The issue, circulation and transaction of digital currency should follow the idea of integration of traditional currency and digital currency, and implement the same principle of management. That is to say, q-coin and the like are definitely not good
as for whether to use blockchain technology to create digital currency. Zhou Xiaochuan said that the blockchain technology is an optional technology, but so far, the blockchain still occupies too many resources. Whether it is computing resources or storage resources, it can't cope with the current transaction scale, and whether it can be solved in the future depends on it. Zhou Xiaochuan said that in addition to blockchain technology, the digital currency research team of the people's Bank of China has also concted in-depth research on other related technologies involved in digital currency, such as mobile payment, trusted and controllable cloud computing, cryptographic algorithm, security chip, etc
in addition, Zhou Xiaochuan also mentioned that there is a lot of discussion about "51% attack" (assuming that indivials have 51% of the computing speed of the whole network, they can realize double payment, reverse transactions, paralyze the whole network, and completely lose the transfer function). More specifically, compared with the special currency, bitcoin does not need the central bank. Zhou Xiaochuan mentioned that for the digital currency controlled by the central bank, a series of technical means, mechanism design and laws and regulations will be adopted to ensure the security of the digital currency operation system, which is different from the design idea of bitcoin from the beginning
as for the digital currency timetable, Zhou Xiaochuan said that there is no established timetable. The relationship between digital currency and cash will be parallel and graally replaced for quite a long time. For reference.
It is not currently available
at present, the Central Bank of China has not issued and approved the digital currency of issuers and investors
However, at the beginning of the year, the central bank held a seminar on digital currency, at which it made it clear that it was necessary to issue digital currency as soon as possible, and the central bank put the issue of digital currency on the agendahowever, so far, the central bank has not issued any digital currency, and Zhou Xiaochuan, the governor of the central bank, said that the time is not ripe to issue digital currency. Moreover, the digital currency issued by the central bank is different from bitcoin, Ruitai, Laite and other digital cryptocurrencies, and the digital currency issued by the central bank is not decentralized
when the central bank issues digital currency, it needs to establish a basic digital currency system. In this system, the central bank is in charge of the digital currency issuing bank, the commercial bank is in charge of the bank, and the public and indivials hold digital wallets. This is not much different from the existing monetary system in essence, but the managed currency is changed from paper money to digital cryptocurrency
in terms of issuing mechanism, there are two modes:
one is the traditional mode of "central bank commercial bank", that is, the central bank issues digital currency from the issuing bank of the central bank to the Bank of the commercial bank. When an indivial withdraws money from the commercial bank, the digital currency is transferred from the commercial bank to the personal digital wallet
another mode is the "central bank public" mode, that is, the central bank can directly issue digital currency from the currency issuing bank to the digital wallet of the public and indivials. In essence, no matter which issuing mode, money is ultimately held by the public, which is the debt of the central bank to the public
A few days ago, some media reported that in the future, once the legal digital currency really runs, the application scenarios will penetrate into all aspects of social life, but its real launch will take time
At the same time, the issuance of legal digital currency will greatly increase the number of point-to-point transactions, bypassing the original regulatory system to a certain extent, which is easy to facilitate illegal transactions. As digital currency makes it very convenient to convert deposits into cash, financial panic and financial risk will accelerate the spread once they occur, which increases the difficulty of supervision In addition, in the process of using legal digital currency, a large number of user data and transaction information will be obtained. How to store and manage these data to prevent the disclosure and illegal use of user information is also an important challenge. No matter from the perspective of technology or security, it is difficult to have a great impact on monetary policy and payment mode in the short termArticle source: bit110 network
When the new currency was first issued last year, it caused quite a stir. Many people like the appearance of the new version of RMB on the Internet. Because of its small number, some people even bought RMB on Taobao. This is a very unusual phenomenon
when the new version of RMB was first issued, people seldom got it or couldn't get it. This is a very normal phenomenon. We all think that the new version of RMB has a small number when it was first issued, and its circulation is not enough. Therefore, we seldom see it. We can only see it online. But so far, the new version of RMB has been issued for one year, According to the normal progress, it has been implemented nationwide and should be popularized, but why is the new version of RMB still rare now{ RRRRR} digital currency is a kind of currency which is different from the real currency of the real economy. It has its own specific purchasing power, but it can only be purchased in a specific place. Take a simple example, for example, if you play a certain game and the gold coins circulating in the certain game, then it belongs to a kind of digital currency
digital currency can be transformed into currency in normal market circulation in some way, but it can only be used in a scenic area, so it can't be consumed directly in real society< br />
in its Research Report on CBDC, the Bank of England defines central bank digital currency as an electronic form of central bank currency, which can be used by households and businesses to make payments and store value
the Chinese version of CBDC is described as a controllable anonymous payment tool, which is issued by the people's Bank of China, operated by designated operating institutions and exchanged to the public, based on the generalized account system, supports the loose coupling function of bank accounts, is equivalent to banknotes and coins, and has value characteristics and legal compensation
what we call DC / EP is the Chinese version of the central bank's digital currency, translated as "digital currency and electronic payment instruments"
