What's the future of digital currency

1. In 2017, the total market value of global digital currencies once exceeded US $600 billion, with an annual maximum increase of 3497.98%. The types of digital currencies increased to 1334, achieving explosive growth in terms of both the total market value and the number of currencies. According to the development route of global digital currency, digital currency can be divided into: 1. Currency type represented by "bitcoin"; 2. Decentralized application development "platform" type represented by "Ethereum"; 3. Various decentralized "application" types

2. Let's first explain digital currency. The real digital currency is issued by the state, based on the national credit, and stored in the form of electronic data. This is the national legal currency that can be circulated. So far, no country has issued digital currency, so has China. Therefore, anyone claiming to be a digital currency issued by the state is a fraud. The function of legal digital currency is the same as that of paper currency. So there is no concept of investment. Just imagine, would you spend 100 yuan to buy a ten yuan RMB? Bitcoin is still a virtual currency, not a real currency. Bitcoin is an encryption algorithm based on the blockchain, and the calculation results are obtained. The biggest characteristics are decentralization, uniqueness and finiteness. Because of these characteristics, it is impossible for a country to use bitcoin as legal tender. So I have no objection to using bitcoin as a target of speculation. But if bitcoin is promoted as a digital "currency", I think it is suspected of cheating, because it does not have the characteristics of national legal tender. Some people in the world are willing to accept bitcoin transaction. I think it is actually a "barter" transaction, not a real currency transaction. At present, bitnet exchange can provide the most trading pairs, and investors can participate in leveraged trading and perpetual contract trading.

3. Recently, the rising price of bitcoin has given birth to all kinds of digital currency financing (ICO) boom. To become a future currency form, digital currency must first have all the functions of the existing currency. However, the existing digital currency represented by bitcoin and blockchain technology still has challenges in some traditional problems< There is no doubt that digital currency is a beneficial attempt to establish the future monetary system, but its premise is to adapt to the current level of human proctivity, technology and culture. In the past, we overemphasized the anonymity, credit and wealth attributes of digital currency under the current credit standard system, but ignored the basic functions of currency
according to the prospective instry research institute, an investment institution, the current upsurge of various types of digital currency financing does not mean that digital currency is becoming more and more popular as a currency. On the contrary, it is regarded by some people as "digital assets" to store, hype or use for illegal purposes, which can not but arouse enough attention and vigilance.

4. Now the digital money investment market is still promising, but there is too much water, many of which are fried, so we must be cautious when we invest

1. High liquidity

every good and reliable digital currency is essential. Every digital currency should have strong liquidity, not only in the scope of third-party trading platform, but also in offline entities or countries like bitcoin

Second, lower volatility

generally, volatility comes from the influence of third-party trading platform, which is similar to stock trading. Strong operators need to control the market to prevent the digital currency market from soaring or plummeting. Therefore, the volatility of a digital currency can show whether the digital currency can develop stably

Third, tradability one of the most important properties of digital currency is tradability. If a digital currency does not have tradability, the digital currency is basically useless. Only when a digital currency has tradability can it have liquidity and volatility

Fourth, the nature of decentralization digital currency has the characteristics of decentralization. Digital money is neither controlled nor manipulated by centralized entities. That is to say, no indivial or third party can obtain the user's digital currency

Fifth, the value of digital currency is increasing based on the market demand. It is not subject to government regulation or operation, which is not like legal money. The rise and fall of digital currency price depends on the transactions between users on the third-party trading platform

6.

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

in recent years, the excessive issuance of banknotes has led to the aggravation of inflation, the frequent security crisis of third-party payment, and the graal maturity of blockchain technology, so decentralized digital currencies such as bitcoin, Ethereum and reborn have emerged. Digital currency has the advantages of low transaction cost, fast transaction speed, high anonymity and fixed amount of money

At the same time, the use scenarios of digital currency become more and more abundant, which makes the user acceptance grow. At present, the use of digital currency has covered all kinds of scenes, such as shopping consumption, wage payment, transportation, travel, takeout settlement and tuition payment. The expanding landing scene has also brought a wider range of consumers. In general, although the number of users of digital currency still accounts for a small proportion of the total population, the number of users is growing. At present, the utilization rate of digital currency has exceeded 10% in 10 countries around the world

In June 2019, Facebook launched Libra virtual cryptocurrency, which has caused worldwide influence. The emergence of Libra may form a global super sovereign currency, thus affecting the traditional transaction settlement currency. For China, the emergence of Libra, on the one hand, will have an impact on China's traditional currency and threaten the sovereign status of China's currency; On the other hand, because RMB is not included in Libra's basket of currencies, it will rece the reserve demand of RMB by central banks, thus hindering the internationalization of RMB. In response to this threat, CCTV timely launched the central bank digital currency. In September 2019, according to China Daily, the central bank's digital currency closed-loop test has begun, and the central bank's digital currency is about to come out

coincidentally, in addition to China, central banks around the world have also announced that they will launch a centralized digital currency based on national credit. In 2015, Ecuador took the lead in launching the national version of digital currency, which can not only rece the issuance cost and increase the convenience, but also enable people in remote areas who cannot have banking resources to obtain financial services through the digital platform. At present, Canada, Brazil, Norway, the United Kingdom and other countries are studying the central bank legal digital currency, while the Bahamas, Sweden, Russia and other countries are discussing the possibility of digital currency issuance. Generally speaking, the developing countries which have received a great impact on digital currency have supported legal digital currency for financial inclusion, breaking through sanctions and other reasons
