The digital currency of the central bank is DCEP

the name of the digital currency developed by the central bank is DCEP (digital currency electronic payment). DC is digital currency. EP is electronic payment. Payment transmits digital things through a certain way, not paper currency. Therefore, electronic payment itself has the attribute of digital currency

The characteristics of digital currency are: low transaction cost; Fast trading speed; Highly anonymous

Application of digital currency

I. fast, economic and safe payment and settlement

cross border payment helps RMB internationalization. In 2015, the settlement volume of cross-border payment involving current account is about 8 trillion yuan. To accelerate the internationalization of RMB, cross-border payment and settlement procts and solutions with low cost, high efficiency and low risk are needed

At present, there are still a lot of repetitive human work in the bank's electronic loan process and processing process, and as the basic support of loan issuance, many of the collateral has the situation of false pricing or multiple or even no collateral. We can consider using digital currency to price and track bank collateral:

3. Bill finance and supply chain finance

in recent years, various bill market businesses based on commercial bills have grown rapidly, and bill financing procts have become a hot area of Internet financing. However, about 70% of the current bill businesses in China are still paper transactions, Supply chain finance is also highly dependent on labor costs

In the official letter of Xiangcheng District of Suzhou, enterprises, institutions and management committees of Xiangcheng District are required to sign a digital currency agreement with the wage paying bank, install digital wallets for all staff (except retirees), and pay 50% of the monthly salary in the form of digital currency

this is the first practical application of the central bank's digital currency since the R & D news, which is a historical moment worth remembering

let's review the development of DCEP:

in 2014, the central bank set up a special research group on legal digital currency

in 2016, it set up a digital currency Research Institute on the basis of the original group

in June 2018, it set up Shenzhen Financial Technology Co., Ltd.

in August 2019, the central government issued a document to carry out digital currency research and mobile payment pilot in Shenzhen

on October 29, 2019, At the "2019 Bund financial summit", Huang Qifan, vice president of China Center for international economic exchange, said: "the digital currency DCEP launched by the Central Bank of China is a new crypto electronic currency system based on blockchain technology." This is the debut of DCEP

On April 3, 2020, in the "national teleconference on money, gold, silver and security work", the central bank said that it would "unswervingly promote the research and development of legal digital currency"

On April 10, Zhou Xuedong, director of the general office of the people's Bank of China, pointed out at the "first quarter financial statistics press conference" that "with regard to digital currency, the people's Bank of China is advancing in an orderly manner according to the original plan."

on April 14, the central bank's digital currency DCEP took the lead in the internal test of ABC

on April 16, Xiangcheng District of Suzhou realized the implementation of the first application scenario of central bank's digital currency DCEP, using "digital wallet" as the payment channel and issuing it in the form of transportation subsidies

judging from various actions, the central bank's plan for digital currency is well prepared and in an orderly and continuous progress

why DCEP

from the national level, it is well known that the macroeconomic regulation and control means of sovereign countries are mainly through monetary policy and fiscal policy, just like the current global lack of liquidity e to the epidemic, China's economy is stimulated by interest rate rection and government spending, but the funds are transmitted layer by layer, and there are few funds really used for the target range

if we use the central bank's digital currency system, we can analyze and track a large number of transactions, and use the most direct and efficient means to put funds where they need, so as to release liquidity and benefit the people

from the international level,

the use of blockchain technology can realize the review of national credit and increase the credit of the country's monetary system. With the increase of GNP, credit must also increase, and the process of RMB internationalization will be more rapid

this is very simple to understand. Blockchain technology makes it impossible for asset certificates to be forged and makes credit verifiable, which is naturally concive to RMB internationalization

Last year, the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) issued a report that up to now, nearly 70% of the central banks are studying the digital currency of the central bank, which also shows that the digital wave is the general trend. At present, the central bank's digital currency DCEP is likely to be used on a large scale ahead of other countries in the world, and the era of digital currency is coming

the era of digital economy is getting closer and closer

today's era is a digital era. With the comprehensive rise of technological innovation and digital economy, science and technology has changed from the initial role of a tool to the backbone of financial reform. The continuous collision and integration of digital five complete genes (whole airspace, whole process, whole scene, full analysis, and full value) and financial instry not only changes the settlement and settlement methods and sovereign currency issuance mechanism among indivials, enterprises, and countries, but also greatly improves the operation efficiency of instrial chain, and brings the development of the whole economic society and human progress

if blockchain technology will "genetically transform" all walks of life, then digital currency will "genetically transform" the financial instry. Looking forward to the future, the in-depth integration and transformation of traditional instries by blockchain, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, Internet of things and other technologies will lead us into a new era of digital economy

in short, the era of digital economy is getting closer and closer to us

the implementation of the central bank's digital currency is bound to bring disruptive changes to the existing financial market and breed huge wealth opportunities. The future has come, the wind has come, keep up with the pace of the instry, accurately grasp the future trend, and quickly seize the blue ocean of wealth business

3. I have never heard of the Institute of virtual currency or a non-governmental organization. There is no such organization in China. In fact, virtual currency is rarely mentioned in the mainstream currency circle, which is generally called digital currency. Virtual currency is generally used in pyramid schemes, which is very vulgar but easy to understand
digital currency investment is risky. If you don't understand it, don't touch it. It's recommended to pay attention to bitcoin and Leyte currency, which are mainstream currencies.

4. On November 16, Beijing time, the 2016 China finance and development innovation forum and the founding ceremony of China digital currency Research Institute, sponsored by China Shengbao investment group, was successfully held at the Great Hall of the people in Beijing
however, the director of the National Institute of digital currency does not know who it is. Coin Ying China is also very well-known in the coin circle. It is at the forefront of the times and has created a new mode of blockchain + crowdfunding.

the number of participants, the number of transactions and the exchange amount of digital RMB pilot test are generally small, and the use scenarios cover many fields, such as living expenses, catering services, transportation, shopping and consumption. At present, digital RMB is generally in the pilot test stage, and there is no timetable for its official launch

extended data

status is equivalent to cash RMB

according to the official definition, digital RMB is the legal tender in digital form issued by the people's Bank of China, which is operated by the designated operating institutions and exchanged to the public. Based on the generalized account system, it supports the loose coupling function of bank accounts, and is equivalent to banknotes and coins. In other words, digital RMB can be simply equivalent to cash RMB, only in different forms, but with the same legal compensation as cash

legal compensation means that any unit or indivial can not refuse to pay all public and private debts in China with digital RMB. For the compensation, the central bank's digital money research institute director Mu Changchun has a more popular explanation in the "get" course. "We see that now the private payment agencies or platforms will set up various payment barriers. WeChat can't use Alipay anywhere, and Alipay can't use WeChat. But for the central bank's digital currency (Digital RMB), as long as you can use electronic payment, you must accept the central bank's digital currency. "
