China's digital currency scam

1.

Basic routine: the "trading market" of MLM digital currency is basically controlled by specific institutions. In order to attract investors' investment in the early stage, the currency price may be very high. Once the time is ripe, it will be sold intensively, and the price will plummet, and the investors will lose all their money

There are three characteristics of digital money MLM:

1. Digital money is a real proct, and it is highly packaged

2. The participants can get a head pulling reward, and the prize is the digital currency itself

3. Digital currency will appreciate with the increase of participants in the scam. In the cycle of digital currency appreciation, the number of participants who can obtain digital currency will also increase, and the participants, including the lowest level participants, will also gain, but in the cycle of devaluation, the bottom level participants often lose a lot

in 2017, the Internet Finance Association of Jiangsu Province issued the "internet pyramid selling identification guide", which named 26 so-called digital currencies as illegal pyramid selling projects covered or suspected to be covered with digital currency. They are: treasure money, Baichuan money, SMI, MBI, mark money, Diablo money, mmm, Fuda compound wealth management, carat money, V treasure, Vicat money, petroleum money, Huaqiang money, CB aiib Hong Kong Group, Yuansheng, Morgan money, beta money, WorldCom, u money, Jubao, 21st century fox, Wanxi wealth management, Wanfu money, Wuxing money, Yi money, Zhonghua money, etc

five ways to distinguish whether digital currency is pyramid selling currency:

1. Issuance mode

virtual currency does not rely on specific monetary institutions. It is proced by a large number of calculations according to specific algorithms, and is a decentralized issuance mode. Each different terminal node is responsible for maintaining the same account book, and the maintenance process is mainly to package and encrypt the transaction information by the algorithm, while the MLM currency is mainly issued by a certain organization, and the profit is made by pulling the head

2. Transaction mode

virtual currency is a kind of sporadic transaction spontaneously formed in the market, which is graally completed by a third party establishing an exchange after the scale is formed. The MLM currency is issued by an institution and traded on its own platform

3. Implementation method

virtual currency itself is an open source program, which is maintained in GitHub community. The parameters and methods of the total amount limit are shown in the open source code. The open source of MLM currency is completely ing other people's open source code, and there is no use of open source code to build programs, so its essence is controlled by the website like Q currency

4, whether to give the source code link

General decentralized digital currency will give the source code link in the prominent position of the official website, so as to show the operation mechanism of the monetary system openly and transparently. The MLM currency focuses on the transaction process of recharge purchase, but does not mention its operation mechanism. Even the website does not have the link address of the source code

5, whether the official website starts with HTTPS

generally, the addresses of the official website and trading website of decentralized digital currency start with HTTPS, and the purpose is that this kind of website can well protect the user's data from illegal theft. But the official website of MLM currency, trading website and other related websites do not start with HTTPS

2. To explore the connotation of digital currency, we must clarify some concepts of model lake. For example, is it legal digital currency dominated by the central bank or illegal private fixed digital currency; Encryption of digital currency or electronic currency; Is it "selling dog meat with sheep's head"; "Bad money". Digital currency can not be said to be a fraud, but has certain risks, because digital gold currency is a form of physical currency, and its deposits are measured in gold rather than legal currency. Therefore, the purchasing power fluctuation of digital gold currency is related to the gold price. If the price of gold goes up, it becomes more valuable. If the price of gold goes down, it loses value
since there is no specific financial regulation to regulate digital gold money suppliers, they operate in a self-regulation way. Digital gold money suppliers are not banks, so banking regulations are not applicable.

3. Don't listen to others any more. I've experienced it myself. Fortunately, I have to go back. Don't worry

4. You can call the police, because many of the digital currencies issued in China are illegal fund-raising activities. The Ponzi scheme in the guise of blockchain usually means that the people in front earn the money of the new entrants in the back, and the platform profits from it. However, these funds have a running cycle, and they will collapse when the time comes
2. Digital currency is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. It 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

it is different from the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it can be used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games. The early digital currency (digital gold currency) is a form of electronic currency named after the weight of gold. Today's digital currencies, such as bitcoin, lightcoin and ppcoin, are electronic currencies created, issued and circulated by means of check sum cryptography
on October 13, the International Monetary Fund predicted that global GDP would shrink by 4.4% in 2020, up 0.8 percentage points from the forecast in June. This year, China remains the only major economy the IMF expects to achieve positive growth< Tobias Adrian, head of the IMF's monetary and capital markets department, said in an exclusive interview with China first finance and economics reporter recently that China's economic recovery is leading the world, while the pilot of the central bank's digital currency (DCEP) is leading the world. He believes that at present DCEP is still focusing on M0 (cash in circulation), which has little impact on banks. In the early stage, DCEP will pay more attention to the application in China. In the future, as more countries begin to pilot central bank digital currency (CBDC), the cross-border use and convertibility of CBDC will be concerned

recently, the promotion of global central banks' digital currency is accelerating. Some mainstream central banks have changed their conservative attitude in their early years and accelerated the research on CBDC. China has taken the lead in carrying out relevant pilot projects. At 8:00 on October 11, Shenzhen "Lixiang Luohu digital RMB red envelope" booking ended, and the system successfully completed the pilot booking registration, which is an important step in the development process of digital RMB

Adrian said: "China's digital currency pilot is leading the world, and the IMF is closely following the pilot situation of China's digital currency in some urban areas." From the perspective of monetary statistics, the central bank's digital currency belongs to the category of M0, that is, cash, not M1 or m2. Therefore, he does not think it is necessary to worry about the impact on banks in the initial stage.

5. It is wrong to say that China's digital currency comes from the people, because it comes from the present. Science.
