It's normal for China to ban virtual currency ICO

1. In 2013, the people's Bank of China issued the notice on preventing bitcoin risks. Later, it was reported that the people's Bank of China had an interview with more than 10 third-party payment companies, explicitly requiring them not to provide payment and clearing services to bitcoin, lightcoin and other trading websites. The price of bitcoin in China has dropped all the way from about 7000 yuan to 3300 yuan. More analysis says that bitcoin will withdraw from China. Is that true< On December 5, 2013, the central bank and other five ministries and commissions issued the notice on the prevention of bitcoin risks, saying that bitcoin is not issued by the monetary authority, has no monetary attributes such as legal compensation and mandatory, and is not a real currency. The move caused bitcoin trading prices to plummet
since then, the network and shell electronics have announced the stop of bitcoin payment. Recently, the central bank interviewed the third party payment agencies. Alipay and Fu Tong pass closed the virtual currency trading window such as bitcoin, resulting in a further fall in bitcoin prices.
it is also reported that the cooperation between banks and bitcoin trading platform is not supported by the regulatory authorities, which basically turns off the possibility of recharge and withdrawal on bitcoin platform, that is, blocking the mutual exchange between domestic bitcoin and RMB
bitcoin trading platforms such as "bitcoin China" and okcoin also resumed to charge 0.3% transaction fees, and increased the withdrawal fees to 1%. Some analysts believe that this is to prevent a large number of investors from cashing out
all kinds of signs show that bitcoin is getting worse and worse in China. However, the conclusion of bitcoin's exit from China may be overstated
first, bitcoin can be freely traded as a commodity
although the central bank does not recognize the legal tender status of bitcoin, it does not deny the legitimacy of bitcoin as a commodity and does not prohibit investment, trading and purchase of bitcoin. Ordinary people have the freedom to participate at their own risk
Second, the bitcoin trade has not collapsed yet
a bitcoin player said that the current transaction price of bitcoin is not low enough to lead to the collapse of the trade. The price of bitcoin is still higher than the cost price of bitcoin, that is, the price of mining< Third, the transaction channel is not blocked

although some third-party payments have stopped supporting bitcoin transactions, and banks are not optimistic, bitcoin trading platform can also use other third-party payment interfaces, or use foreign payment interfaces to pay. Some bitcoin trading platforms are considering transferring their servers abroad
the above-mentioned bitcoin player said that he once withdrew cash from his personal account to remit money to him. In other words, bitcoin transaction may bypass the third-party payment
at the same time, cash transaction is also a possible way of transaction< Four, the biggest risk of bitcoin trading is not regulation
the biggest risk of bitcoin trading is not government regulation, but security risks
bitcoin is at risk of being stolen by hackers. If there is a large-scale loss of bitcoin, it will directly affect the fairness of market transactions, which is a real "bottom-up"
however, at present, the security risks of bitcoin have not been fully exposed
the overall risk has increased
it must be admitted that the government's increased supervision has further increased the risk of bitcoin trading
moreover, the transaction threshold is obviously higher than before
in essence, as a means of investment, the risk of bitcoin is self-evident. If there is no final person to take over the offer, even if bitcoin is in short supply, it lacks real value and only has limited online use value. If you can't find the last recipient, bitcoin will probably disappear like a bubble.

Some virtual currencies are illegal in China. Chinese laws prohibit virtual currencies. The only legal currency in China is RMB. Since the people's Republic of China issued RMB, it has lasted 71 years. With the development of economic construction and the needs of people's life, it has graally improved and improved. So far, it has issued five sets of RMB, forming a multi variety and multi series monetary system of paper money and metal money, ordinary commemorative money and precious metal commemorative money

except for 1,2,5 fen coins, the first, second and third sets of RMB have been withdrawn from circulation, and the fourth set of RMB has been suspended from circulation since May 1, 2018 (except 1 jiao, 5 jiao notes and 5 jiao, 1 yuan coins). The current circulation of RMB is mainly the fifth set of RMB issued in 1999

< H2 > extended information

the people's Bank of China is scheled to issue the fifth set of RMB 50 yuan, 20 yuan, 10 yuan, 1 yuan banknotes and 1 yuan, 5 jiao, 1 jiao coins of the 2019 edition from August 30, 2019. The fifth set of RMB inherits the traditional experience of China's printing technology and draws lessons from the advanced technology of foreign banknote design, which has greatly improved its anti-counterfeiting performance and currency processing modernization

Chairman Mao Zedong's head portrait in the early days of the founding of the people's Republic of China is used on the front of each denomination currency, the famous Chinese flower pattern is used on the bottom, and the main scenery pattern on the back fully shows China's long history and magnificent mountains and rivers, and carries forward China's great national culture by selecting representative patterns with national characteristics

3. How to buy and sell virtual currency after China forbids virtual currency trading?

4. It is forbidden in China, but some countries in the world recognize it. For example, Singapore is now the best choice for ICO
from the subject of registration to the later legal services, they are relatively perfect

There are two reasons for the prohibition of virtual currency trading by the state:

1. The price fluctuates violently and the consumer protection is lacking:

virtual currency is the proct of network, and the digital information flowing in the network is beyond everyone's control. The code of cyberspace is the basis of the operation of virtual currency, investors can only operate through the front-end interface, seemingly "control" the virtual currency. The operator of the virtual currency service organization may become the actual controller of the virtual currency through the control code

bitcoin and other so-called "virtual currencies" lack a clear value basis, the market is full of speculative atmosphere, the price fluctuates violently, and investors blindly follow suit, which is easy to cause capital losses

2. Evade supervision and become the "accomplice" of criminal activities:

bitcoin is popular as a payment tool in the so-called "dark web" world“ The "dark net" is full of all kinds of serious criminal activities. One of the original intentions of the invention of bitcoin is to evade regulation. It has the characteristics of anonymity and convenient cross-border flow, and has become the preferred tool of "underground economy"

the existence of bitcoin and exchanges and other instrial chains has constructed a illegal financial market for asset transfer and financing in addition to legal currency, increased the difficulty of regulatory authorities in managing financial security and stability, and promoted regulatory arbitrage and financial crimes. The risks and social security risks it brings to the financial market are far higher than its innovative value

extended information

virtual currency transactions are not protected by law:

according to the notice on preventing bitcoin risks issued by the people's Bank of China and other departments on December 3, 2013 and the announcement on preventing financing risks of token issuance issued by seven ministries and commissions including the people's Bank of China on September 4, 2017, virtual currency is not issued by monetary authorities, It is not a real currency because it does not have the monetary attributes of legal compensation and compulsion

in terms of nature, virtual currency should be a specific virtual commodity, which does not have the same legal status as currency, and can not and should not be used as currency in the market. Although citizens' investment and trading in other virtual currencies are personal freedom, they can not be protected by law

blockchain instry term, which is a common way to raise funds for cryptocurrency / blockchain projects. Early participants can get the cryptocurrency generated initially as a return

question 2: because ICO is an unauthorized illegal public financing behavior, it is prohibited by the state

prohibit ICO from issuing according to the announcement: at 3:00 p.m. on September 4, 2017, the people's Bank of China led seven ministries and commissions, including the Internet Information Office, the Ministry of instry and information technology, the State Administration for Instry and commerce, the China Banking Regulatory Commission, the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the China Insurance Regulatory Commission, to issue the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance

the announcement points out that token issuance financing is essentially an unauthorized illegal public financing behavior, which requires that all kinds of token issuance financing activities should be stopped immediately from the date of the announcement, and at the same time, organizations and indivials who have completed token issuance financing should make arrangements such as refund

extended information:

at 3 p.m. on September 4, 2017, the notice on preventing the financing risk of token issuance is as follows:

first, accurately understand the essential attribute of token issuance financing activities

token issuance financing refers to the financing subject raising bitcoin from investors through illegal sale and circulation of tokens In essence, the so-called "virtual currency" such as ether currency is a kind of unauthorized illegal public financing behavior, which is suspected of illegal selling token tickets, illegal issuing securities, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal criminal activities

Relevant departments will closely monitor relevant developments, strengthen cooperation with judicial departments and local governments, strictly enforce the law in accordance with the current working mechanism, and resolutely deal with market chaos. If suspected crimes are found, they will be transferred to judicial organs

the token or "virtual currency" used in token issuance financing is not issued by the monetary authority, has no monetary attributes such as legal compensation and compulsion, does not have the same legal status as currency, and cannot and should not be used as currency in the market

2. No organization or indivial shall illegally engage in token issuance and financing activities

from the date of this announcement, all kinds of token issuance and financing activities shall be stopped immediately. Organizations and indivials that have completed the token issuance and financing should make arrangements such as refund, reasonably protect the rights and interests of investors, and properly handle risks. Relevant departments will seriously investigate and deal with the activities of token issuance and financing that refuse to stop and the illegal behaviors in completed token issuance and financing projects

8. Strict law enforcement, found suspected crimes, will be transferred to judicial organs
the financing currency is suspected of illegal fund-raising
find your own venture capital legally.

9. According to the registration instructions, it is a promise that after becoming a service partner, there is no need to register locally or employ employees before becoming a service partner.

10. Blockchain enterprises have copied a new way of playing ICO from the United States. To put it simply, blockchain enterprises create a virtual currency, raise funds from investors with a certain exchange ratio, and exchange virtual currency for current currency. The raised funds are used for the development of enterprises, and investors can obtain income either through the appreciation of virtual currency or through the equity in the enterprise
this method immediately attracted the favor of many Chinese entrepreneurs and investment institutions. They invented a currency to exchange other people's money. For the sake of their future appreciation, people who have changed virtual currency will trick more people to join, and this business can expand rapidly< However, this playing method is illegal in China
U.S. currency is not issued by the state, but issued and managed by the Federal Reserve, a number of private institutions supported by banks. Therefore, it is not illegal for anyone to invent money (whether paper money or virtual money) as long as someone is willing to use it
different from China, various laws stipulate that currency must be issued and managed by the state. Only the people's Bank of China has the power to issue currency, and it is illegal for anyone else to do so. Even the points issued by various enterprises with certain monetary attributes are not allowed to establish a two-way exchange mechanism with RMB
therefore, ICO should not think about it in China. It is more difficult to rectify the financial order today
I hope this answer will help you
