Compared with bitcoin, its competitor, liteoin block chain can handle more transactions. Due to the more frequent generation of data blocks, the network can support more transactions without modifying the software in the future. Therefore, businesses can get faster transaction confirmation, and they can still wait for more transaction confirmation when they sell large amount of goods< In fact, digital virtual currency is far from the above. Forbes magazine listed the top 30 virtual currencies in the market by their total market value and price as of 10:00 a.m. local time on the 27th. Caijing.com and venture capital Post said that there are at least 60 kinds of virtual currencies currently traded According to the Forbes report, bitcoin ranked first in market value and unit price. It was the lightcoin designed by Li Qiwei, a former Google programmer, that won "erlianya". In the past week up to the 27th, the price of lightcoin rose rapidly from $6 to $26, a considerable increase. The third to fifth place in the total market value are spot money, nominal money and prime money. The report counted the 24-hour gains as of the 27th. Almost all of the 30 currencies rose, with the biggest increase of the quark currency, reaching 278.55%. The report also said that almost all virtual currencies have taken a ride in the current round of bitcoin's rise, but most of them have poor business, with 8 companies with a total market value of less than $1 million and 19 companies with a unit price of less than $1
at present, more than 60% of bitcoin computing power is in China, and more than 60% of transactions are in RMB. China occupies a leading position in bitcoin and other virtual currency markets. Most virtual currencies also have Chinese figures. For example, Li Qiwei, the founder of lightcoin, is a Chinese American. The Yuan Bao coin, Fuyuan coin and Zhaocai coin made in China are also authentic. Zeng Hongji's bitstock is also the project of Li Xiaolai
but it is worth noting that most of the research on virtual currency is not in China, and bitcoin related financing also occurs in European and American countries. European and American countries pay more attention to infrastructure construction and R & D, focusing on the future rather than immediate interests.
