Characteristics and uses of virtual currency

3.

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. I'm too young to remember the birth of the Internet. When the Internet was booming, I was in high school, a little confused about what happened. At a family party, when my cousin bragged about how much money he made from buying and selling domain names, I thought it was stupid
it's not a reality. Up to now, I still think it's stupid to make money by buying and selling domain names. I know it happens sometimes. It's like a high-risk, low return investment
as a result, the Internet did. Now, 20 years on, domain names are cheap, and search engines make them brand specific Note: the author means that the convenience of search engines makes domain names cheaper and cheaper. Domain names are only related to brands.)
What does this have to do with the value of bitcoin
this is an example of how people's views on value change with the development of technology
at this point, most people see bitcoin as money. The chairman of the US SEC said, "yes, that's how drug gangs use it. Everyone I know thinks so.". It's called "bit coin" for a reason
bitcoin maximalists call it hard currency, critics call it fake money, and veteran players call it cyber currency

6. As an almost perfect monetary system, bitcoin has five characteristics different from traditional currency
first, decentralization. Bitcoin is a point-to-point, decentralized digital currency. It does not rely on specific institutions to issue, does not need any government and institutions to carry out credit endorsement, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of each link< Second, anonymity. You can send and receive bitcoin without providing any personal identity information< Third, scarcity. The total number of bitcoins is limited to 21 million and is expected to be issued in 2140< Fourthly, the transfer cost is low. With bitcoin transfer, no matter how much the amount is, you only need to pay a very low fee. The transfer fee can be set freely. At present, it is recommended to pay 0.0005 bitcoin fee for each transfer< 5. Convenient global circulation. In any country, any intelligent terminal connected to the Internet can carry out bitcoin transfer and transaction
I hope I can help you! Hope to adopt!

7. 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.

The role of digital currency:

1. First of all, the central bank's digital currency can provide a huge data base for monetary policy and macro Prudential policy, so that the regulatory authorities can collect real-time trading books of different frequency and different institutions according to their needs, and it is complete and real. This information advantage can help the central bank use policy tools more accurately and flexibly

Secondly, the central bank's digital currency technology can track the flow of funds and help the regulatory authorities to comprehensively monitor and assess financial risks. Finally, the central bank's digital money technology is concive to the transmission of interest rate of monetary policy. Digital currency technology supports "point-to-point" payment and settlement, which can improve the liquidity of market participants. Only the digital currency of the central bank, which is generally accepted by the whole society, can radiate this advantage to the participants of different financial markets, so as to improve the liquidity of financial markets. This will make the term structure of interest rate smoother and the transmission mechanism of interest rate smoother

extended data:

digital currency can be considered as a virtual currency based on node network and digital encryption algorithm. The core characteristics of digital currency are mainly reflected in three aspects: because it comes from some open algorithms, digital currency has no issuing subject, so no one or institution can control its issuing; Because the number of algorithm solutions is fixed, the total amount of digital currency is fixed, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of inflation caused by the overuse of virtual currency; Because the transaction process needs the approval of each node in the network, the transaction process of digital currency is safe enough

9. 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~

10. At present, the virtual currency trading is in chaos, and the strength of trading platforms is uneven. Many trading platforms will cooperate with the development and operators of coins to launch some junk coins just to earn money. The coin circle is very small. When choosing a trading platform, try to choose some well-known trading platforms, such as Xigu digital asset trading platform, jucoin and so on.
