Characteristics of virtual currency

1. 1. Low transaction cost
compared with traditional bank transfer, remittance and other methods, digital currency transaction does not need to pay fees to a third party, and its transaction cost is lower, especially compared with cross-border payment which provides high service charges to payment service providers
2. Fast transaction speed
the blockchain technology used in digital currency has the characteristics of decentralization, High anonymity
in addition to the point-to-point transaction without intermediary participation, one of the advantages of digital currency over other electronic payment methods is that it supports remote point-to-point payment, It doesn't need any trusted third party as an intermediary, and the two sides of the transaction can complete the transaction in a completely strange situation without mutual trust. Therefore, it has higher anonymity and can protect the privacy of traders, but it also creates convenience for cyber crime, which is easy to be used by money laundering and other criminal activities

2. First, digital currency is anonymous. Second, digital currency is programmable currency. Third, digital currency is cryptocurrency. Fourth, digital currency is algorithmic currency. Fifth, digital currency is autonomous currency. Sixth, the operation of digital currency is based on distributed network.

The differences between e-money and virtual money are as follows:

1. Electronic money refers to using a certain amount of cash or deposit to exchange from the issuer and obtain data representing the same amount, or through the quick payment service launched by the bank and the third party to transfer the balance in the bank through some electronic ways, so that transactions can be carried out. Strictly speaking, it is a kind of currency that consumers use the bank's Internet banking service to store value and make quick payment to the issuers of electronic currency, and make consumers trade electronically through media (two-dimensional code or hardware equipment)

virtual currency refers to non real currency. Well known virtual currencies, such as online currency of Internet company, q-coin of Tencent company, q-point and voucher of Shanda company, micro currency launched by Sina (used for micro games, Sina reading, etc.), chivalrous Yuanbao (used for chivalrous road game), silver grain (used for bixue Qingtian game), and popular digital currencies in 2013 include bitcoin, Laite coin, infinite coin, quark coin, zeta coin, etc Barbecue coins, pennies (Internet), invisible gold bars, red coins, prime coins. At present, hundreds of digital currencies are issued all over the world. Popular in the circle & quot; The legend of "bitcoin, Wright silver, infinite copper, pennies aluminum"

The detailed explanation of electronic currency is as follows:

1. Concept: it is an encrypted serial number representing cash, which can be used to represent the currency value of various amounts in reality. With the transformation from paper-based economy to digital economy, e-cash will become the mainstream

2. Features: anonymity, transaction cost saving, transmission cost saving, low holding risk, flexible and convenient payment, anti-counterfeiting and anti repetition, non traceability

There are two kinds of e-cash: one is based on the Internet and keeps the binary data representing the value of money in the hard disk of the computer terminal; One is the electronic wallet that keeps the monetary value in the IC card and can be circulated without the bank payment system

4. Definition: consumers pay traditional money to the issuers of electronic money, and the issuers store the equal value of traditional money in the electronic devices held by consumers in electronic form

4. Virtual currency refers to non real currency. Well known virtual currency, such as network company's network currency, Tencent company's Q currency, Q point, Shanda company's voucher; The popular digital currencies in 2013 include bitcoin, Leyte coin, Fuyuan coin, doggy coin and so on
network virtual currency can be roughly divided into

the first category is familiar game currency. In the era of stand-alone games, the protagonist accumulates money by knocking down the enemy, entering the gambling house to win money, and using these to buy Herbs and equipment, but it can only be used in his own game console. At that time, there was no "market" between players. Since the establishment of Internet portal and community, the realization of game networking, virtual currency has a "financial market", players can trade game currency
the second type is the special currency issued by the portal website or instant messaging service provider, which is used to purchase the services in the website. The most widely used is Tencent's q-coin, which can be used to purchase membership, QQ show and other value-added services
the third kind of virtual currency on the Internet, such as bitcoin (BTC), Fuyuan coin (FTC), Wright currency (LTC), etc. bitcoin is an electronic currency proced by open-source P2P software. Some people also translate bitcoin as "bitcoin", which is a kind of network virtual currency. It is mainly used for Internet financial investment, and can also be directly used in daily life as a new currency.

5. At the moment, there is a big difference. I feel that the most common point is that all of them can be used for payment. For example, Dell accepts bitcoin payment to buy computers. Or you can ask Babbitt, where there are more cattle.

6. Bock is a kind of virtual currency used in the game, but I see that you sum up this problem as personal financial management, so I'll tell you about the specific characteristics of virtual currency from the aspect of financial management. To give you an example, this kind of currency, you understand it as something similar to Q currency. You also need to use RMB to buy Q currency, and then use it to buy things in QQ mall. In the area of financial management, many online loan platforms also have their own virtual currency. Like q-coin, you can only use it to buy things in QQ, and different virtual coins can only buy a certain range of things. For example, in order to attract people to register, some platforms will give as much as they want for registration. In fact, the money given can only be used for the investment of this platform. It's not so easy for you to take the money. Hope to help you, hope to adopt~
