digital currency emerges as the times require and is widely welcomed
digital currency is an unregulated and digital currency, which is usually issued and managed by developers and accepted and used by members of specific virtual communities. 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.

analysis of characteristics and advantages of digital currency
{rrrrrrr}
data source: the above data and analysis are published in the in depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of China's blockchain instry issued by the Institute of prospective instry
at present, there are many comments on digital currency, criticizing that digital currency is not applied in retail payment, but in virtual asset trading, which is not in line with the direction of our financial assets serving the real economy. Therefore, we need not be too anxious in this regard, steady and orderly research and development, focusing on serving the real economy, recing costs and preventing excessive speculation
at present, bitcoin, Ethereum and wikilink, which are popular in the market, are actually not liked by the central bank and are highly speculative.
On September 2, it was reported that on August 21, the central bank headquarters received the relevant emergency report. The report analyzed in detail and clearly pointed out that from the perspective of penetrating supervision with substance more important than form, ICO belongs to illegal fund-raising in disguise
according to the lover quoted, relevant people of the central bank have studied a large number of ICO white papers and come to the conclusion that "90% of ICO projects are suspected of illegal fund-raising and subjective and intentional fraud, and less than 1% of the ICOS that actually raise funds for project investment."
ICO is the full name of initial coin offering, short for the first public offering of digital token, which imitates the IPO (initial public offering) in the stock market. That is to say, the project sponsor can obtain financing by issuing initial token through blockchain technology, but the initial token cannot be purchased in legal currency (RMB, US dollar, etc.), because it violates the laws and regulations of various countries on financing, and needs to be purchased with digital assets with good liquidity such as bitcoin and Ethereum
Yao Qian, deputy director of the science and Technology Department of the people's Bank of China and director of the digital currency Research Institute, pointed out in an article a few days ago that the current ICO is at the edge of legal supervision. Starting from the system construction, we should give the ICO a legal statement as soon as possible. He suggested that the implementation of sandbox supervision on ICO (in a "safe space", financial technology enterprises can test their innovative financial procts, services, business models and marketing methods, instead of being immediately subject to regulatory rules when related activities encounter problems) On August 16, Huo Xuewen, director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of finance, also said in an internal closed door talk that Internet finance, blockchain and ICO can only have vitality if they develop in accordance with laws and regulations, and any violation and abuse will be punished"the national financial work conference made it clear that all financial activities should be regulated. All activities of "managing other people's money" should be subject to supervision. Blockchain innovation, Internet finance innovation, ICO innovation, but if you do not control the risk, then all the innovation will go to its opposite. If the traditional financial risk is 1.0 and the Internet financial risk is 2.0, the current blockchain and ICO risk is 3.0. " Huo Xuewen said at the meeting
