How to strengthen the supervision of virtual currency

1. Reason: with the rapid development of information technology, real money is far from meeting people's demand for capital flow. If there are enough people to recognize the value of a virtual currency, it may become a substitute unit of material exchange, and the existence of virtual currency will inevitably cause another upsurge in the financial sector
in view of the possible risks of virtual currency, many international organizations and central banks have responded publicly to the supervision of virtual currency system. These responses can be roughly divided into four categories: warning and risk warning, supervision and registration permission, legislative norms, and explicit prohibition
(1) warning and risk warning
some central banks and regulators have issued risk warnings against the special currency and virtual currency system. The federal financial regulatory authority of Germany, the Bank of France, the central banks of the Netherlands and Belgium have issued public warnings against the possible money laundering and terrorist financing caused by the use of bitcoin. In the report released at the end of 2013, the European Banking authority (EBA) warned consumers of many risks of virtual currency, such as exchange loss, e-wallet theft, unprotected payment, price fluctuation and so on. Although Spain did not have a similar risk warning, it issued a timely information announcement related to virtual currency
(2) supervision and registration license
generally speaking, international organizations believe that the supervision of virtual currency should find a balance between risk prevention and innovation promotion. Since 2012, Sweden has required transactions related to virtual currency to be registered with financial regulators. Other countries pay attention to qualification supervision, so as to make it indirectly meet the requirements of prudential supervision. In other countries, the regulation mainly focuses on the business model of virtual currency transaction. The financial prudential regulatory authority of France regards the provision of bitcoin circulation and trading services and the act of earning funds in the process as a payment service and requires the authorization of the government. In addition, some countries focus on the intermediary institutions related to virtual currency. The German federal financial regulatory agency and Danish regulators believe that the provision of intermediary services for virtual currency needs to be authorized< (3) legislative norms
at present, some countries have proposed legislation to regulate virtual currency transactions. Canada plans to legislate to allow the government to supervise the transaction of bitcoin, and to include the transaction of more than US $10000 into the scope of suspicious supervision. The United States hopes to adjust the relevant legal structure should be compared with the development of the special currency. In order to make the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) applicable in the context of network, the financial crime enforcement network (FinCEN) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued the explanatory guidance on the behavior and subject definition of private generation, holding, distribution, trading, acceptance and transmission of virtual currency in 2013. The European central bank stressed that it should strengthen international cooperation under the existing legal framework, and regulate virtual currency from the European and global level under the existing legal framework. More countries believe that bitcoin is not a currency in circulation, has no legal status, and does not meet the definition of financial instruments, such as Finland, Sweden, Malaysia and Indonesia
(4) it is forbidden
in some countries, bitcoin related transactions are prohibited. In December 2013, the people's Bank of China banned financial institutions from trading in bitcoin, which was subsequently extended to payment service providers. The central banks of Thailand and Indonesia share the same attitude. The circulation of anonymous internet currency (including bitcoin) is prohibited by the Russian judicial inspection department as a substitute for currency. The Central Bank of Russia has earlier included the provision of bitcoin services in the scope of suspicious transaction monitoring. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has banned the issue of unregistered shares in exchange for bitcoin, and unregistered online securities trading activities in virtual currency.

2. At present, the trading of virtual currencies such as bitcoin in China is closed and cannot be traded in exchanges
virtual currency lacks supervision and is too free; Therefore, China's current virtual currency is still in a serious regulatory scope; Of course, the research on virtual currency blockchain technology is worth trying.

3. The main purposes are as follows:

1
2
3
4. Protect the property rights and interests of the public, protect the legal tender status of RMB, prevent the risk of money laundering and maintain financial stability
5. Avoid excessive speculation in the name of "virtual currency" for virtual commodities such as bitcoin, which will damage the public interest and the legal tender status of RMB.

Recently, the people's Bank of China held a national teleconference on money and gold and silver work in 2018. Fan Yifei, vice governor of the people's Bank of China, pointed out at the meeting that this year we should solidly promote the research and development of digital currency of the people's Bank of China, strive to improve the level of cash service, carry out the rectification and clean-up of all kinds of virtual currency, closely communicate and cooperate with relevant departments, and vigorously rectify the chaos in the field of cash circulation

Fan Yifei pointed out that the current work of currency gold and silver is facing new challenges, the traditional business environment has undergone major changes, the development of digital economy, the diversification of means of payment and the change of the public's habit of using banknotes have had a profound impact on the issuance and circulation of RMB, and the public has put forward new and higher requirements for the level of cash service“ The central bank's monetary gold and silver work needs to be continuously deepened in serving the real economy, effectively promoted in improving services for people's livelihood, and comprehensively strengthened in preventing and defusing risks. "

"commercial banks should give full play to the pivotal role of cash delivery and withdrawal, further do a good job in the issuance of ordinary commemorative coins, and effectively improve the public satisfaction; Further strengthen the cash analysis, improve the level of cash management, strengthen the management of large amount of cash, and effectively protect the people's demand for small denomination RMB; We will further strengthen the anti-counterfeiting work, strengthen internal control and management, and constantly improve the ability of employees and cash machines to intercept counterfeit money. " Fan Yifei said

5. Control the amount of money in circulation and maintain financial stability. If the issuance of virtual currency is equivalent to not passing the central bank, it will increase the amount of money circulation, and the use of financial supervision will be out of control.

6. Central banks have never taken virtual money seriously. The central bank strengthens the supervision of virtual currency to prevent systemic risks and illegal activities such as money laundering and tax evasion.

The vice president of the people's Bank of China said in an interview that through this market fluctuation, we will study the regulatory rules of bitcoin. As we all know, the price of bitcoin has been rising rapidly, attracting the attention of countless investors, but it has been followed by a sharp decline of bitcoin. Because there is no way to regulate such a virtual currency, its capital flow has become a puzzle. This time, the people's Bank of China said in an interview that it would study such a virtual currency, which obviously sent a signal. So today, let's discuss the difficulties in the regulation of bitcoin{ Third, how do you view this interview

this interview not only expresses that we will carry out strict supervision over the special currency, but also expresses another attitude. That is, bitcoin, as an investment currency, has been included in the scope of compulsory regulation nationwide, even worldwide. At the same time, we also need to understand that although bitcoin has investment properties, it can not replace currency itself

8. Regulators talk about the supervision of virtual currency again. Why should virtual currency be supervised< p> Recently, the regulatory authorities reiterated their views on virtual currency, and then strengthened the supervision of virtual currency. This argument has attracted a lot of people's attention on the Internet. For a long time, virtual currency has been repeatedly banned on the Internet, which has caused many governments to have a headache. For example, bitcoin, which has been popular on the Internet before, has been admired by many people, and many people spend their time on it; Mining & quot; In recent years, the infatuation for bitcoin has reached a fanatical level. Recently, I believe many people have heard of dogcoin. As a similar proct of blockchain, dogcoin is a kind of virtual currency like bitcoin, which has set off a huge wave for people's social life

In addition, virtual currency has led many people to inlge in it and reced their enthusiasm for life. Therefore, many people waste their time and it is very unwise to waste their time in this kind of virtual data. Therefore, we should spontaneously boycott the virtual currency and contribute to the maintenance of the world monetary system
