Ethereum will lose no matter how much it buys or how short it se
money, as a measure of transaction value, does not necessarily have value in itself, it can only be used as an intermediate unit of measurement. It's just like China has only RMB as legal tender, that is to say, government guarantee has value. For example, in those war-torn areas, ten jin currency may not buy an egg, which is the reason
back to digital currency, digital currency, until now, no country has recognized it as the currency in circulation of its own country. It seems that last year or the year before last, our country also banned some. In this case, digital currency can only be sold at a price higher than your purchase price, so that you can make money. But digital currency itself does not have any value. Unlike stocks, it is your ownership of listed companies. So if you can't find someone to buy digital currency, it's worthless
the Ponzi scheme in history, the Dutch tulip, when it was the most expensive, a tulip was worth buying a house. When no one bought it, all the tulips rotted. In addition, they couldn't get a potato. Therefore, Buffett said that digital money is a bubble, which is a hoax.
in addition, there is a saying in the stock market that when all the ladies in the vegetable market begin to discuss the stock market, it is the time when the stock market reaches its peak. In my opinion, this also applies to digital currency. When many people are discussing how to make money and how to make a lot of money, the risk has accumulated to a great extent. Most of the time, when the stock begins to fall, many people are still in the previous inertial thinking, thinking that it will rebound soon, and then it will get lower and lower, and they are more reluctant to sell it. This is why many people hold a high position on it
I'm not sure whether it is the highest point of digital currency, but I think that digital currency, which can be issued by anyone, has no purchase value and can only be sold to others. I think it's a fraud.
There is an essential difference between Ethereum and bitcoin. What is the difference? Bitcoin defines a set of currency system, while Ethereum focuses on building a main chain (which can be understood as a road) to allow a large number of blockchain applications to run on this road
from this point of view, Ethereum's application scenarios are more extensive, which is why we say that Ethereum marks a simple monetary system in the era of blockchain
1.0, and a transformation to other instries and application scenarios in the era of blockchain 2.0
however, there is no perfect thing in the world. Although Ethereum has expanded the application scope of blockchain in all walks of life and improved the speed of transaction processing, it also has some disputes and doubts
first, the solution to the lack of scalability of Ethereum: slicing technology and lightning network
the bottom design of Ethereum, the biggest problem is that Ethereum has only one chain and no side chain, which means that all programs have to run on this chain equally, consuming resources and causing system congestion. Just like last year's very popular Ethereum game "encryption cat", when this game was very popular, it once caused Ethereum network paralysis
to improve the processing capacity, Ethereum proposes two ways: shard and lightning network. Let's introce these two technologies respectively
(1) fragmentation technology
vitalik buterin, founder of Ethereum, believes that the reason why mainstream blockchain networks such as bitcoin process transactions very slowly is that every miner has to process every transaction in the whole network, which is actually very inefficient. The idea of fragmentation technology is: a transaction does not need to be processed by all nodes in the whole network, as long as some nodes (miners) in the network are allowed to process it. Therefore, Ethereum network is divided into many pieces. At the same time, each piece can handle different transactions. In this way, the network performance will be greatly improved
however, the slicing technology is also controversial. As we all know, the important idea of blockchain technology is decentralization. Only when the whole network witnesses (processes) the same transaction can it have the highest authority. The Ethereum slicing technology is similar to the group witness, not all nodes witness together. In this way, it will lose the absolute "decentralization" attribute, and can only achieve the purpose of high performance by sacrificing certain characteristics of decentralization
(2) lightning network
lightning network uses the way of transaction under the chain. What does that mean? It means: when the participants of lightning network transfer money to each other, they do not need to confirm the transaction through the main chain of Ethereum, but create a payment channel between the participants and complete it under the chain
however, lightning network is not separated from the main chain. Before establishing a payment channel, you need to use the assets on the main chain as collateral to generate a balance proof, which indicates that you can transfer the corresponding balance. In the case that both parties of the transaction hold the balance certificate, both parties can make unlimited number of transfers under the chain through the payment channel
only when the off chain transaction is completed and the assets need to be transferred back to the chain, the balance change information of the main chain account will be registered on the Ethereum main chain, and no matter how many transactions occur ring this period, there will be no record on the main chain
another real benefit of lightning network is that it can save the cost of miners for you. At present, when we trade on the main chain of Ethereum, we need to consume gas and pay for miners. Once we move the transaction to the lower chain, we can save this part of the cost
Of course, lightning network is not perfect. When using the lightning network, the assets on the main chain should be used as collateral; And this part of assets as collateral can not be used before the user completes the transaction under the chain. This also determines that lightning trading is only suitable for small transactionsthe above is the problem of insufficient scalability of Ethereum, as well as the two main solutions: fragmentation technology and lightning network
Second, there are loopholes in Ethereum's smart contract and the infamous Dao event
Ethereum's smart contract is very powerful, but there are loopholes in any code. The biggest controversy of Ethereum's smart contract lies in the so-called loopholes, that is, security issues. According to relevant research, 34200 (about 3%) of the nearly 1 million smart contracts based on Ethereum contain security vulnerabilities, which will allow hackers to steal eth, freeze assets or delete contracts, such as the infamous Dao incident
(1) what does Dao meanbefore introcing the Dao event, let's first introce what Dao is. Dao is the abbreviation of decentralized
autonomous organization, which can be understood as decentralized autonomous organization. From the perspective of Ethereum, Dao is a kind of contract or a combination of contracts on the blockchain, which is used to replace the government's review and complex intermediate proceres, so as to achieve an efficient and decentralized trust system. Therefore, Dao is not a specific organization, that is to say, there can be many Dao, all kinds of Dao
(2) the infamous Dao event
however, when we talk about Dao now, we basically refer to the Dao event, that is, the infamous hacker attack event we just mentioned. As we know, the English word "the" refers to "the Dao event". The Dao event
refers to "the Dao event", because we just said that Dao is not a specific organization, there can be many Dao, all kinds of Dao
in 2016, slock.it, a German company focusing on "smart locks", launched the Dao project on Ethereum in order to realize decentralized physical exchange (such as apartments and ships). Since April 30, 2016, the financing window has been open for 28 days
unexpectedly, this Dao project is very popular. It raised more than US $100 million in just half a month. By the end of the whole financing period, it raised a total of US $150 million. Therefore, it has become the largest crowdfunding project in history. However, it didn't last long. In June, hackers took advantage of the loopholes in the smart contract to successfully transfer more than 3.6 million Ethernet coins and put them into a Dao sub organization, which has the same structure as the Dao. At that time, the price of Ethernet currency fell directly from more than $20 to less than $13
this event shows that there are loopholes in smart contracts, and once the loopholes are exploited by hackers, the consequences will be very serious. This is why many people criticize Ethereum and say that its smart contract is not smart
to solve this problem, many foreign companies begin to provide code audit services in order to solve the vulnerability problem of smart contract. From a technical point of view, some teams are currently testing smart contracts. Most of these teams are led by professors from Harvard, Stanford and Yale, and some of them have obtained investment from leading institutions
in addition to the problems of insufficient expansibility and loopholes in smart contracts, the controversy over Ethereum lies in the POS consensus mechanism it pursues, that is, the proof of equity mechanism. Under the proof of equity mechanism, if anyone holds more money and holds it for a longer time, he will get more "rights" (interests) and have the opportunity to get bookkeeping power, Bookkeeping can also be rewarded. In this way, it is easy to create the oligarchic advantage of "the stronger the stronger"
Another problem is the chaos of ICO. ICO is a common way to raise funds for blockchain projects, which we can understand as pre-sale. The outbreak of ICO projects on Ethereum has caused illegal activities such as fund allocation and money fraud under the banner of ICO, which has caused security risks to social and financial stabilityZhejiang Yongqi blockchain Technology Co., Ltd. is another limited liability company incorporated in Xihu District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province on August 29, 2018, with its registered address at room a1006, building 13, Xixi Mingyuan business center, Liuliu street, Xihu District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province

Futures is a two-way transaction, you can buy up and sell down to make money. Specifically, there are those who are long (bullish) and those who are short (bearish). Long means buy low and sell high, buy first and then sell. Short means sell high and buy low, sell first and then buy. What you earn is price difference
because futures closing is the opposite of the original trading, the combination of profit, so the short buyer is the person who opens a long position, and then wants to sell to close the position, so he will become a long seller (the effect of long position closing on the price is equal to short), and the short seller is the person who opens a short position, so he needs to buy to close the position, and then he will become a long buyer. Identity changes with indivial behavior
{rrrrrrr}
extended data:
futures trading characteristics:
two-way
one of the biggest differences between futures trading and stock market is that futures can be two-way trading, futures can buy more or short. When the price rises, you can buy low and sell high; when the price falls, you can sell high and buy low. Long can make money, and short can also make money, so there is no bear market in futures In a bear market, the stock market will be depressed, but the futures market will still be prosperous and the opportunity will still be good.)
low cost
no stamp ty and other taxes are levied on the futures trading countries, and the only cost is the transaction fees. The proceres of the three exchanges in China are about two to three per ten thousand, plus the additional fees of the brokerage companies, and the unilateral fees are less than one thousandth of the trading volume Low cost is a guarantee of success)
leverage
leverage principle is the charm of futures investment. In the futures market, the transaction does not need to pay all the funds. The domestic futures transaction only needs to pay 5% margin to obtain the right of future transaction. Due to the use of margin, the original market was magnified by more than ten times
double the opportunity
futures is a "t + 0" transaction, which makes your capital application to the extreme. After grasping the trend, you can trade and close your position at any time Convenient access can increase the security of investment)
is greater than negative market
futures market is zero sum market, futures market itself does not create profits. In a certain period of time, the total amount of funds in the futures market is constant without considering the capital in and out and withdrawal transaction costs, and the profits of market participants come from the losses of another trader
