What is virtual currency decentralization

1. My mother is 70 years old. She is an ordinary retired worker. Recently, she has been tricked into joining the virtual currency. I just want to ask whether it is the old lady who keeps up with the times or the swindlers who are all pervasive? The wise man should analyze it by himself. My conclusion is that the world is clear and the swindler praises it.

2.

Virtual currency is the currency used for electronic circulation. Now the scope of virtual currency is very large, including q-coin, bitcoin and so on. With the development of digital currency, virtual currency is becoming more and more abundant, which may become the mainstream in the future. For example, BTC, EOS, bcbot and so on are not only virtual currencies, but also algorithms, landing projects and technologies

virtual currency is mainly issued by online game service providers to purchase game props, such as equipment, clothing, etc. But at present, the use of virtual currency has gone far beyond this category. Virtual currency can be used to buy game cards, physical objects and download services of some movies and software

extended data:

real risk

as the proct of e-commerce, virtual currency has begun to play an increasingly important role, and it is more and more connected with the real world. However, with the growth of virtual currency, the relevant laws and regulations are lagging behind, which has laid many hidden dangers

fraud

the private transaction of online virtual currency has realized the two-way circulation between virtual currency and RMB to a certain extent. The activity of these traders is to buy all kinds of virtual currencies and procts at a low price, and then sell them at a high price to earn profits. With the increase of such transactions, there are even virtual mints. In addition to the virtual currency provided by the main company, there are also some people who specialize in "virtual coin making" to obtain virtual currency by playing games and then resell it to other players

Taking Wenzhou as an example, there are about seven or eight such "virtual mints" with four or five hundred practitioners. This not only creates a bubble for the price of the virtual currency itself, but also causes trouble for the normal sale of the issuing company. It also provides a platform for selling and collecting money and money laundering for various cyber crimes. p>

impact system

in modern financial system, the issuers of money are generally central banks, which are responsible for the management and supervision of money operation. As the equivalent exchange goods used to replace the real currency circulation on the Internet, the virtual currency on the Internet is essentially the same as the real currency. The difference is that the issuers are no longer central banks, but Internet companies

if the development of virtual currency makes it form a unified market, each company can exchange with each other, or virtual currency is integrated and unified, and all of them are based on the same standard and price, then in a sense, virtual currency is currency, which is likely to form a threat impact on the traditional financial system or economic operation

3. Investment should be cautious, please study carefully before deciding
virtual currency is a currency that can buy goods and services in a specific community in a virtual space. It has the monetary function of medium of exchange and unit of account
virtual currency can be roughly divided into three categories
the first category
has nothing to do with real currency, and can only be used in a closed virtual environment, usually online games, such as world of Warcraft
the second type of one-way exchange can only be used in a virtual environment, and sometimes physical goods and services can be purchased, such as frequent flyer award program, microsoft points, Nintendo points, Facebook credits and Amazon coin
the third type of two-way exchange, which has a buying price and a selling price, is the same as "real" currency, including those issued by issuers, such as second life Linden coin, two-way exchangeable game currency, etc., as well as decentralized cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin, Leyte coin, Ethereum, etc; Virtual currency & quot; But cryptocurrency is only one of the subcategories of virtual currency.

4. That is, no one can control, not be controlled by the living center of a living group. Therefore, it can not be used as legal tender recognized by the state. There are a group of money speculators who argue that virtual currency will replace paper money every day. It's all bullshit. We must pay attention to investment risks. Now there are many pyramid schemes with virtual digital currency gimmicks to cheat money

5. In a system with many nodes, each node has a high degree of autonomy. Nodes can connect freely to each other to form a new connection unit. Any node may become the stage center, but it does not have the mandatory central control function. The influence between nodes will form nonlinear causality through the network. This open, flat and equal system phenomenon or structure is called decentralization
this is the reason for the decentralization of digital currencies such as bitcoin, Ruitai and Qianjin.

6. In short, there are three ways:

7.

1. Efficiency is different: the efficiency of decentralized network is higher than that of centralized network, but conversely, the security of centralized network is higher. On the whole, centralized network is suitable for high security applications

2. Different characteristics: centralized network means that each time two client computers communicate with each other through the server. The decentralized network is the initial need to go through the server, later communication does not need the server

3. Different costs: the characteristics of collective maintenance of blockchain can rece a lot of costs. The centralized network involves the maintenance, confidentiality, operation and so on of many systems, which must require a lot of human, financial and material resources. These things do not exist for the decentralization of blockchain, so they can save a lot of costs

precautions:

in the aspect of blockchain governance, an interesting trend recently is the re emergence of online virtual currency holder voting as a multi-purpose decision-making mechanism. Sometimes the vote of the coin holder is used to decide who runs the super node of the network (e.g. dpos in EOS, Neo, lisk and other systems), sometimes the protocol parameters are voted (e.g. the upper limit of Ethereum fuel supply), and sometimes the vote and direct application of approval (e.g. tezos) protocol upgrade are also concted

in all these cases, voting is automatic, and the protocol itself contains all the logic needed to change the verifier set or update its own rules, and automatically responds to the voting results
