After September 14, the relevant token platforms successively removed procts or stopped trading. After the news came out, digital currency was boiling

some people can't help asking: with the collapse of ICO and the closure of bitcoin platform, is digital currency over? Here the central bank gives the answer.

digital currency

digital currency is different from virtual currency, not bitcoin or q-coin! That is to say, it is different from virtual currencies such as bitcoin and Ethernet

virtual currency can only be closed in circulation on the network, just like Tencent's q-coin and Dashen's coin on the platform of Dashen software collaborative instry ecological chain. They can only be used for one use of their own procts. Digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency, bitcoin is illegal digital currency. As for legal digital currency, there is no unified international definition. Yao Qian, deputy director of the science and Technology Department of the people's Bank of China and head of the preparatory group of the digital currency Research Institute, believes that the digital currency researched and issued by the people's Bank of China is indexed RMB. From the perspective of national schemes, it belongs to legal encrypted digital currency, which is not only a payment tool but also a currency. Correspondingly, virtual currency is also called illegal fixed digital currency. Li Lihui, head of the blockchain working group of China Internet Finance Association, once said that digital currency must have legal status, national sovereignty endorsement, and clear responsibility subject of issuance. Virtual currencies represented by bitcoin and ethereal currency have no country, no sovereign endorsement, no qualified issuers, and no national credit support. These are not digital currencies.

7. The United States, Australia, Estonia, Japan, Germany, Malaysia, Switzerland, Kazakhstan, Singapore and Thailand have or have issued digital currency licenses. The choice is very important. Some of them stop issuing, some of them don't have enough gold, and the application is meaningless. It's a waste of time and money.
