Is Ethereum legal in 2017

1.

Digital money is legal

digital currency itself is legal in China. Digital currency is defined as Internet goods in China, but the relevant supervision is still blank, and digital currency is still in the gray area in China. Well known digital currencies include bitcoin, Leyte coin, Ruitai coin, thousand gold card, dog coin, etc

however, there are also some non developers who use the cover of digital currency to carry out pyramid schemes, such as the Vicat scheme, treasure scheme, Porter scheme and so on

development materials:

digital currency is different from the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it can be used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games. The early digital currency (digital gold currency) is a form of electronic currency named after the weight of gold. Today's digital currency, such as bitcoin, lightcoin and ppcoin, is an electronic currency created, issued and circulated by check sum cryptography. It is characterized by the use of P2P peer-to-peer network technology to issue, manage and circulate currency. In theory, it avoids bureaucratic examination and approval, so that everyone has the right to issue currency

2.

It's illegal

the central bank indicated that it has not issued legal digital currency, nor authorized any institutions and enterprises to issue legal digital currency, and there is no promotion team. At present, the so-called "digital currency" in the market is not legal digital currency

In addition, the so-called "digital currency" launched by some institutions and enterprises and the so-called promotion of the central bank's issuance of digital currency may involve pyramid selling and fraud

extended information:

virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. This kind of virtual currency is mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment. Digital currency can be used for real goods and services transactions, but only the digital currency issued by the state is legal digital currency

in 2013, the central bank, together with five ministries and commissions, issued the notice on prevention of bitcoin risks, which clearly defined non legal digital currencies such as bitcoin as virtual commodities, which do not exist in the form of currency and legal currency

3. At present, there is no objection to indivials holding cryptocurrency in China, but it is not allowed to trade or exchange in kind, that is to say, it is allowed to hold but not to circulate

First of all, we need to understand what is MLM:

MLM refers to the illegal behavior of organizers and development personnel to obtain wealth by calculating and paying remuneration to the developed personnel based on the number or performance of the personnel directly or indirectly developed, or requiring the developed personnel to pay certain fees to obtain the qualification to join. The essence of MLM is "Ponzi scheme", that is to say, the money of later comers is distributed to the income of former comers

However, the new type of MLM does not restrict personal freedom, does not accept ID cards and mobile phones, and does not take classes collectively. Instead, it uses capital operation as a banner to pull people to cheat money, drives luxury cars, wears gold and silver, and uses money to attract your relatives and friends to join in, and finally makes you lose all your money

then judge whether the ether coin is a kind of MLM, whether you need membership fee, whether you need to ask your relatives and friends to join

extended materials:

Ethereum is an underlying technology platform on which developers can create distributed applications. With the application, there will be transactions. With a transaction, you need money to complete the transaction. In this way, money has value, and investors' investment has a return. If the transaction volume on the platform is larger and larger, the demand for money will be higher and higher, and the money will be more and more valuable

from the perspective of image, bitcoin creates a kind of digital gold, while Ethereum creates a country, and Ethereum is the credit currency of the country

after bitcoin, there are thousands of digital virtual currencies in the world, many of which are completely deceptive in the guise of "digital currency". Previously, Haikou Municipal Public Security cracked down on a pyramid selling organization called "Eurasian currency", which operated on the internet pyramid selling platform, making more than 40000 investors cheated, involving 4.06 billion yuan. The field of virtual currency has just started, so we need to be cautious

It does not belong to MLM

Ethereum is an open source public blockchain platform with smart contract function, which provides decentralized virtual machine (Ethereum virtual machine) to process point-to-point contract through its special cryptocurrency Ethereum

the concept of Ethereum was first proposed by vitalik buterin, a programmer, from 2013 to 2014, inspired by bitcoin, to the effect of "next generation cryptocurrency and decentralized application platform", and began to develop through crowdfunding in 2014. The market value of Ethernet currency is second only to bitcoin, and it is the second largest encrypted digital currency in the world

extended data

bitcoin has created the first decentralized cryptocurrency, and has fully tested the feasibility and security of blockchain technology in more than five years. In fact, bitcoin's blockchain is a set of distributed database. If a symbol bitcoin is added into it and a set of protocol is specified, the symbol can be transferred safely on the database without trusting a third party. The combination of these features perfectly constructs a currency transmission system bitcoin network

however, bitcoin is not perfect, and the scalability of the protocol is a deficiency. For example, there is only one symbol in the bitcoin Network - bitcoin, and users can't customize other symbols. These symbols can represent the company's stocks or debt certificates, which will lose some functions

In addition, a stack based scripting language is used in bitcoin protocol. Although this language has some flexibility to realize functions such as multi signature, it is not enough to build more advanced applications, such as decentralized exchanges. Ethereum is designed to solve the problem of insufficient scalability of bitcoin

6. What the platform does is the price spread trading of eth (ether currency) on various trading platforms all over the world. It uses a variety of trading strategies to match and trade between currencies, such as ether currency / bitcoin, ether currency / US dollar, and other counterfeit currencies. On the basis of professional investment management of ethtrade, it can make your investment increase up to 25% per month.

7. You can identify whether this enterprise is suspected of pyramid selling according to the three standards of the "Regulations on the prohibition of pyramid selling". If their actions comply with the regulations, they can go to the official website of the Ministry of Commerce to check whether the enterprise has been approved by the Ministry of Commerce and obtained a direct marketing license. If not, then it can be determined that this is a pyramid scheme, which is illegal.

8. 10 of the equipment: not to say, excessive. 20's equipment: there are many people to pursue the main attribute of the equipment. In my opinion, the main attribute of equipment is not bright. If you brush monsters, monster damage + 2 is not more affordable than power + 1 (power + 1, you only have 1 more blood to chop monsters, monster damage + 2. More blood). But the price of this kind of equipment is much lower than that of the main attribute.) If you want to bring advanced equipment to meet the required attributes, that's another point. In my opinion, the attributes that brush monsters need are monster damage > elemental damage > power (elemental damage means that you see holy light damage, shadow damage and so on on on weapons. This kind of damage increases the general attack on monsters and characters. Also, the damage of element skills is increased.)
