what is digital currency
digital currency can be used to describe all electronic currencies, including virtual currency and cryptocurrency. Digital currency is a kind of electronic currency without any physical form. Because of its functions and inherent attributes, it is the same as the standard illegal fixed currency, and can also be referred to as the network version of cash. Digital currency is invisible. People need to use and hold it through devices that can be connected to a specific network
T1: eth (the first public chain at present, the underlying platform of Shanzhai coin breeding, and in the speculation of eth2.0) EOS (community consensus + DAPP possible explosion + defi can also join + drop out of high cost performance) Zec (anonymous leader)
T2: Yas (UBI concept, low market value, great potential) atom (cosmos, advantage new public chain), XRP (the decline in 2019 has not risen, so the upward space is still very large) Polkadot dot (Boca, the goal is to surpass Ethereum) KSM (Boca pioneer)
T3: Ada (potential) NEO (myth of 1000 times of the last bull market), ont (strong village), Iost (Iost is currently undervalued, DAPP is also in good development)
there are platform coins in the coin circle, corresponding to HT, BNB, MX
1. The concept range is different. bitcoin is a kind of digital currency, and the concept of digital currency covers bitcoin
However, some digital currencies have independent issuers The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total quantity of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to 21 milliondigital currency is abbreviated as digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital currency" in English. It is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy. Bitcoin is a digital currency
digital currency 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, lettercoin and ppcoin, are electronic currencies created, issued and circulated by means of check sum cryptography. It is characterized by the use of P2P peer-to-peer network technology to issue, manage and circulate currency. In theory, it avoids bureaucratic examination and approval, so that everyone has the right to issue currency
illegal digital currency
in recent years, "virtual currency" represented by bitcoin, Ethernet currency and Leyte currency has been traded centrally on some Internet platforms. With the help of financial technology, the price of these "currencies" has graally spread to investment, financing and other financial fields, which has aroused wide attention from all walks of life
not long ago, the people's Bank of China and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, which clearly regulated the relevant behaviors. Experts pointed out that "virtual currency" is not legal tender (legal currency) issued by monetary authorities, but a specific virtual commodity in essence
therefore, it is undoubtedly a great legal and economic risk to think that "virtual currency" has or will have the nature of legal tender and to carry out speculation, network fund-raising, lending and financing
Yin Zhentao, deputy director of the law and Finance Research Office of the Financial Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that digital currency faces two risks. The first is the technical level. Digital currency relies on blockchain technology and a system, which will make it suffer from security impact, such as hacker attacks on computer systems. We have seen many practical problems in this process
Zhao Zhanzhan, a special researcher of intellectual property research center of China University of political science and law, believes that digital currency has anonymity, quickness and irrevocability. In addition, bitcoin and other digital currencies have high circulation in the world, so many criminals use digital currency as a new money laundering channel. Moreover, there are many different ways to realize money laundering through digital currency. Generally speaking, the probability of new money laundering being found and investigated is lower than before. Many countries have no effective means and technology to combat money laundering through digital currency. These factors lead to criminals prefer this way of money laundering
there is no price limit for P.S. digital currency trading, so investment should be cautious!
according to the introction, zcash uses a technology called zero knowledge proof (known as "ZK snark") to verify the authenticity of the transaction. It uses a public blockchain to display the transaction, but it will hide the amount of the transaction. Viewing the owner of the key (i.e. the owner of the coin) allows others to view the information associated with the key
in short, this method of calculation allows users to prove that they have the currency they want without exposing information about where the currency came from or is going. It's like zero knowledge proof allows you to enter a password on a website and verify it by the website's server without actually transmitting the password
in contrast, although bitcoin and other digital currencies are famous for their concealment of transactions, in real life, they can often track transactions through the records of ordinary bitcoin blockchain, so that people can accurately know the sender and sending location of bitcoin. Nowadays, zcash has realized the transaction of original data in the form of encryption, rather than publishing the transaction data to the public like bitcoin. Snowden also said that the anonymous zcash project can solve the monitoring risk of bitcoin
therefore, zcash, an anonymous function that pursues the ultimate privacy protection, is first considered to have great value in the financial instry. Foreign media pointed out that the traditional financial instry has an extraordinary demand for information protection. Although many people think that the privacy requirements of bitcoin and other blockchain systems come from crypto anarchists and liberals, the fact is that the traditional financial instry is promoting the hiding of transaction information on the blockchain
however, the anonymity of digital currency is also a headache for the regulatory authorities, and it is very difficult to popularize it in the world. At most, it is only a niche proct. However, the platform developed by using blockchain technology has great potential. For example, the blockchain content publishing platform decent, Ethereum's intelligent contract and so on.
Generally, the excellent digital currencies are mostly imported procts, such as bitcoin, Leyte coin, ether coin and so on. However, the domestic Yuanbao coin, Ruitai coin, bitcoin and the tokens of different crowdfunding projects of European crowdfunding are excellent digital currencies
digital currency (English: digital currency) is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. At present, no central bank of any government has indicated that it will issue digital currency, and digital currency does not have to have a benchmark currency and a central bank
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 currency, such as bitcoin, lightcoin and ppcoin, is an electronic currency created, issued and circulated by check sum cryptography
Digital currency is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy
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 e to some open algorithms, digital currency has no issuing subject, so no one or organization can control its issuing
(2) the total amount of digital currency is fixed because the number of algorithm solutions is determined, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of inflation caused by the overuse of virtual currency (3) as the transaction process needs the approval of each node in the network, the transaction process of digital currency is safe enough

extended data
features:
1, low transaction cost
compared with traditional bank transfer, remittance and other methods, digital currency transaction does not need to pay fees to a third party, and its transaction cost is lower, especially compared with the cross-border payment that provides high handling charges to payment service providers
2, fast transaction speed
the blockchain technology used in digital currency has the characteristics of decentralization, and it does not need any centralized organization similar to the clearing center to process data, so the transaction processing speed is faster
3, high anonymity
in addition to the physical form of currency can achieve point-to-point transactions without intermediary participation, one of the advantages of digital currency compared with other electronic payment methods is that it supports remote point-to-point payment, and it does not need any trusted third party as intermediary, Both sides of the transaction can complete the transaction in a completely unfamiliar situation without mutual trust
therefore, it has higher anonymity and can protect the privacy of traders, but it also creates convenience for cyber crime, which is easy to be used by money laundering and other criminal activities
