Confidential digital currency

6. The concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto on November 1, 2008, and was officially born on January 3, 2009. According to the idea of Nakamoto, the open source software is designed and released, and the P2P network on it is constructed. Bitcoin is a virtual encrypted digital currency in the form of P2P. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency institution to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity
on December 17, 2017, bitcoin reached an all-time high of $19850. On July 27, 2020, bitcoin broke through the $10000 mark again [2]<

from the transaction of things In 2008, the global financial crisis broke out. On November 1 of the same year, a person who called himself Satoshi Nakamoto published the white paper bitcoin: a peer-to-peer e-cash system [6] on the P2P foundation website, stating his new idea of e-money bitcoin came out. On January 3, 2009, bitcoin Genesis block was born
there are three bitcoins in total
compared with legal tender, bitcoin does not have a centralized issuer, but is generated by the calculation of network nodes. Anyone can participate in the manufacture of bitcoin, and it can circulate all over the world. It can be bought and sold on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where they are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or receive bitcoin, And in the transaction process, foreigners can not identify the user's identity information. On January 5, 2009, bitcoin, which is not controlled by the central bank and any financial institutions, was born. Bitcoin is a kind of digital currency, which is composed of a series of complex codes generated by computer. The new bitcoin is made by preset program
whenever bitcoin comes into the view of mainstream media, mainstream media always ask some mainstream economists to analyze bitcoin. Earlier, these analyses always focused on whether bitcoin was a scam. Now the analysis is always focused on whether bitcoin can become the mainstream currency in the future. The focus of the debate is often on the deflationary nature of bitcoin[ 7]
many bitcoin players are attracted by the fact that bitcoin can not be added at will. Contrary to the attitude of bitcoin players, economists have a polarized attitude towards the fixed amount of 21 million bitcoin
Keynesian economists believe that the government should actively regulate the total amount of money, and use the tightness of monetary policy to timely fuel or brake the economy. As a result, they believe that bitcoin's fixed aggregate currency sacrifices its adjustability, and worse still, it will inevitably lead to deflation, thereby harming the overall economy. Austrian economists hold the opposite view. They think that the less the government intervenes in money, the better. The deflation caused by the fixed amount of money is not a big deal, even a sign of social progress
bitcoin network generates new bitcoin through "mining". In essence, the so-called "mining" is to use computers to solve a complex mathematical problem to ensure the consistency of bitcoin network distributed accounting system. Bitcoin network will automatically adjust the difficulty of mathematical problems, so that the whole network will get a qualified answer about every 10 minutes. Then bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as block reward to reward the person who gets the answer[ 6]
in 2009, when bitcoin was born, block rewards were 50 bitcoins. Ten minutes after its birth, the first 50 bitcoins were generated, and the total amount of money at this time is 50. Then bitcoin grew at a rate of about 50 every 10 minutes. When the total amount reaches 10.5 million (50% of 21 million), the block reward will be halved to 25. When the total amount reaches 15.75 million (5.25 million new output, i.e. 50% of 1050), the block reward will be further halved to 12.5. 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 about 21 million[ 3]
bitcoin is a virtual currency with limited quantity, but it can be used to cash out: it can be converted into the currency of most countries. You can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats, equipment, etc. in online games. As long as someone accepts it, you can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items
on February 25, 2014, the opening price of "bitcoin China" was 3562.41 yuan. By 4:40 p.m., the price had dropped to 3185 yuan, down more than 10%. According to the historical market data of the platform, on January 27, 2014, 1 bitcoin could be exchanged for 5032 yuan. This means that in less than a month on the platform, the price of bitcoin has dropped by 36.7%
on September 9 of the same year, the US e-commerce giant eBay announced that Braintree, its payment processing subsidiary, would start accepting bitcoin payments. The company has entered into a partnership with coinbase, a bitcoin trading platform, to begin to accept this relatively new means of payment
although the eBay market trading platform and paypal business do not accept bitcoin payment, Braintree customers such as airbnb, a travel house rental community, and Uber, a car rental service, will be able to start accepting this virtual currency. Braintree, whose main business is to provide payment processing software to enterprises, was acquired by eBay in 2013 for about $800 million
on the evening of January 22, 2017, fire coin, bitcoin China and okcoin announced on their respective official websites that in order to further curb speculation and prevent drastic price fluctuations, all platforms will start to collect transaction service fees from 12:00 noon on January 24, and the service fees will be charged at a fixed rate of 0.2% of the transaction amount, and the active transaction and passive transaction rates are the same[ 8] On May 5, according to the latest data of okcoin, the price of bitcoin has just set a new record, reaching a high of 9222 yuan by the time of publication. From 12:00 noon on January 24, China's three major bitcoin platforms officially began to collect transaction fees. On September 4, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions announced that China banned virtual currency trading
on December 17 of the same year, bitcoin reached an all-time high of $19850
on November 25, 2018, bitcoin broke the $4000 mark and then stabilized at more than $3000[ 9] On November 19, cryptocurrency resumed its decline, and bitcoin fell to the $5000 mark for the first time since October 2017, e to BCH's hard bifurcations and the regulatory authorities' enhanced scrutiny of the initial token issue (ICO)[ 9] At 4:30 a.m. on November 21, the offer of bitcoin on the coinbase platform fell below $4100, a 13 month low

overseas mining rise: batch construction of us factories, On November 1, 2008, a self styled Satoshi Nakamoto published a bitcoin white paper, bitcoin: a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, on the P2P foundation website, stating his new idea of electronic money bitcoin came out
Wang yuexinyi, Professor of mathematics at Kyoto University, was born on January 3, 2009. Bitcoin uses distributed ledger to get rid of the constraints of third-party institutions, which Nakamoto calls "blockchain". Users are willing to dedicate the computing power of CPU and run a special software to be a "digger", which will form a network to maintain the "regional chain". In the process, they also generate new money. Business is also extended on this network. Computers running this software are scrambling to solve the problem of irreversible code, which contains several business data. The first miner to deal with the problem will get a 50 bitcoin reward, and the relevant trading area will join the chain. As the number of "miners" increases, the difficulty of each puzzle also increases, which keeps the proctivity of bitcoin in each trading area at about 10 minutes
in 2009, Nakamoto designed a digital currency, namely bitcoin. The booming bitcoin market has gone up and down, and the identity of its founder "Nakamoto" has always been a mystery. Rumors about "the father of bitcoin" involve from the US National Security Agency to financial experts, and also give bitcoin a mysterious aura
according to foreign media reports, computer scientist Ted Nelson released a video on the Internet on Sunday, saying that he has determined that the founder of bitcoin is Shinichi Mochizuki, a professor of mathematics at Kyoto University. The founders of bitcoin have always used

7.

China does not have the first legal virtual currency. At the end of 2013, the central bank and other five ministries and commissions issued the bitcoin risk notice, which clearly defined bitcoin as a special Internet commodity, and the public can buy and sell it freely on the premise of taking their own risks

other digital confidential currencies are also suitable, such as Laite coin, the ancestor of Shanzhai coin, Fuyuan coin for business points in jewelry instry, dog coin for small reward, etc. But although virtual currency exists legally in our country, it is illegal to cheat under the guise of virtual currency

extended data

as the proct of e-commerce, virtual currency has begun to play an increasingly important role, and it is more and more connected with the real world. However, with the growth of virtual currency, the relevant laws and regulations are lagging behind, which has laid many hidden dangers

fraud

the private transactions of online virtual currency have realized the two-way circulation between virtual currency and RMB to a certain extent. The activity of these traders is to buy all kinds of virtual currencies and procts at a low price, and then sell them at a high price to earn profits. With the increase of such transactions, there are even virtual mints

in addition to the virtual currency provided by the main company, there are also some people who specialize in "virtual coin making" to obtain virtual currency by playing games and then resell it to other players. Take Wenzhou as an example, there are about seven or eight such "virtual mints" with four or five hundred practitioners. This not only creates a bubble for the price of the virtual currency itself, but also causes trouble for the normal sale of the issuing company. It also provides a platform for selling and collecting money and money laundering for various cyber crimes. p>

impact system

in modern financial system, the issuers of money are generally central banks, which are responsible for the management and supervision of money operation. As the equivalent exchange goods used to replace the real currency circulation on the Internet, the virtual currency on the Internet is essentially the same as the real currency. The difference is that the issuers are no longer central banks, but Internet companies

if the development of virtual currency makes it form a unified market, each company can exchange with each other, or virtual currency is integrated and unified, and all of them are based on the same standard and price, then in a sense, virtual currency is currency, which is likely to form a threat impact on the traditional financial system or economic operation

network problems

in addition to direct cash, virtual currency can also be purchased by SMS, internet transfer and fixed telephone recharge. These ways of purchase not only provide convenience for users, but also have many risks

such as embezzlement of telephone recharge and purchase by minors. In addition, virtual currency does not have the anti-counterfeiting technology of real currency. Computer hackers may use its security loopholes to proce counterfeit currency. Relevant personnel of the State Administration for Instry and Commerce said that virtual currency transaction is a business behavior derived from the Internet era, and there are no clear legal provisions to regulate it, and there are no items related to virtual goods transaction in the scope of instrial and commercial registration

but when the virtual property transaction graally employs people, places are fixed, transaction profits are clear, and has the nature of operation, it may involve market order and tax issues. Even game operators have no ability to control. There are a large number of "counterfeit banknote makers" in the network. Take the winger who is mainly engaged in chess and card online games as an example, the purchasing power of his online currency has shrunk by nearly 40% in one year. Many people point out that such inflation will only damage netizens and make them lose confidence in the Internet

8. China does not have the first legal virtual currency
at the end of 2013, the central bank and other five ministries and commissions issued the bitcoin risk notice, which clearly defined bitcoin as a special Internet commodity, and people can buy and sell it freely on the premise of taking their own risks. Free trading means to control risks by oneself, but at present, bitcoin is not a currency and should not be used for payment. Financial institutions are not allowed to provide services related to bitcoin
other digital confidential currencies are also suitable, such as Laite coin, the ancestor of Shanzhai coin, Fuyuan coin for business points in jewelry instry, dog coin for small reward, etc. But although virtual currency exists legally in our country, it is illegal to cheat under the guise of virtual currency. For example, the recent Baichuan coin, Morgan coin, mmm and so on all carry out pyramid schemes under the guise of bitcoin. So this kind of activity, or I prefer to call it "game", gives the opinion that the road is dangerous and the investment is cautious.

9. I think sumo is a digital currency with less risk. First of all, its security is really high. It is untraceable and belongs to the digital currency that can be used for highly confidential transactions. Then, it succeeded in the coin dragon online line. All currencies are selected from the best.
