For example, when online trading various network virtual currencies, it should audit whether the currency is a network virtual currency based on blockchain technology
(2) if the trading platform knows that the online trading currency is suspected of MLM, but in order to collect Commission, it also provides trading services for the currency and promotes its development, once the currency is identified as MLM, the trading platform may have to bear certain legal liabilities

After the scale is formed, the transaction is graally completed by a third party establishing an exchange, while MLM currency is issued by an institution and traded on its own platform
(3) from the perspective of implementation, virtual currency itself is an open source program, while the open source of MLM currency is completely ing other people's open source code, and there is no use of open source code to build programs, which is essentially controlled by the website as Q coin.

"Financial crimes in the name of Internet finance are becoming more and more serious." Jiang Shuzhen, director and prosecutor of the economic crime Department of the Beijing municipal procuratorate, told reporters that in recent years, the number of cases of building self financing platform in the name of P2P and issuing false credit transfer projects to finance themselves has increased year by year, and the harm has become more and more serious. In addition, illegal fund-raising in the name of virtual currency and blockchain also began to appear
According to Jiang Shuzhen's analysis, there are still some problems in financial crime cases, such as difficult investigation and evidence collection, and many disputes on the application of law. For example, in the case of illegal fund-raising, the amount of evidence collection is large, cross regional evidence collection is difficult, and there are disputes between crime and non crime, indivial crime and unit crimein addition, the regulation of financial laws and regulations on new financial formats such as Internet finance is relatively backward. Jiang Shuzhen, for example, in recent years, there have been illegal and criminal activities such as "Huaqiang coin" and "five element coin" with virtual currency as a gimmick. On September 4, 2017, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the "notice on preventing the risks of token issuance and financing", which timely reminded the public to be alert to the risks of token issuance and financing and transactions, and achieved good results. But what is the meaning of token, There is a lack of law enforcement norms to regulate the illegal issuance of securities, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal activities. In view of the problems exposed in Internet finance, blockchain and other new formats, we should improve the relevant laws and regulations as soon as possible to promote the effective connection between administrative law enforcement and criminal justice
