There is no official recognition of any virtual currency in China. There is also no legal virtual currency

virtual currency is the proct of network, and the flow of digital information 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. There is no legal basis for the establishment of various so-called "currency" trading platforms in China

the establishment of all kinds of bitcoin trading places has neither been approved nor supervised. To enlarge the scale of transactions, it is necessary to provide leveraged transactions such as financing and melting coins, which has aggravated the price shocks and bubbles. The public has participated in such transactions without any legal protection. p>

extended information:

virtual currency is not issued by the monetary authority, does not have monetary attributes such as compensatory and mandatory, does not have the same legal status as currency, and cannot be used as currency in the market. In essence, the issuance and financing of virtual currency is a kind of illegal public financing without approval. It is suspected of illegal sale of token tickets, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal and criminal activities. Investors should not be carried away by "high income"

There are many hidden risks in virtual currency, which seriously affect the financial order. Virtual money pyramid selling breaks through the limitation of traditional geographical space, and if there is a formal company facade as a cover, it can publicize the company on a large scale, and the propagation speed is amazing. If it can not be found and dealt with in time, it will cause great destructive power. In the future, the regulatory agencies can study and explore the relevant business models of virtual currency trading within the scope of controllable risk, improve the regulatory scheme, and promote the long-term regulatory mechanism

3. BOC has not issued any digital currency, which is a false information. The Bank of our country forbids digital currency. The central bank has planned to issue digital currency, but it is still in the experimental stage. Moreover, the digital currency that the central bank plans to issue is also different from bitcoin, Ruitai, Laite and other digital currencies.

4. The Bank of China has not made any transition with the virtual currency, and the central bank's attitude towards the special currency is cautious and indifferent
at the end of 2013, the central bank and other five ministries and commissions jointly issued a bitcoin risk notice, in which bitcoin was clearly defined as a special Internet commodity. People can buy and sell bitcoin freely at their own risk, denying its monetary attribute, and no financial institution can participate in bitcoin related business. Bitcoin home has the full text<

Zhou Xiaochuan, the governor of the central bank, said that bitcoin is a tradable asset like a stamp, which is not issued by the central bank, and the central bank has no right to ban bitcoin.

5. Nonsense, typical pyramid marketing discourse
in the bitcoin risk notice jointly issued by the central bank and other five ministries and commissions at the end of 2013, bitcoin is clearly defined as a special Internet commodity, and people can buy and sell it freely on the premise of their own risk. At this stage, bitcoin is not a currency. Bitcoin cannot and should be used for payment, and financial institutions are forbidden to provide services related to bitcoin. In 2014, third-party payment institutions and banks have interrupted the cooperation with the trading platform
therefore, the ICC virtual currency and the Bank of China are also doing things that are nothing. They are suspected to be a pyramid scheme and should invest prudently. At present, there are numerous pyramid schemes under the guise of bitcoin. As an investor, we should learn more about virtual currency, and don't believe in the myth that virtual currency makes wealth. At present, the more well-known virtual currencies are bitcoin, Wright coin, Fuyuan coin, dog coin and so on, but these coins are always used by pyramid schemes.

6. Bank of China has not launched or plans to launch any digital currency, let alone specific events. In China, the major commercial banks have drawn a clear line with digital currency for a long time. Although the attitude towards digital currency is not so cold now, the law is still not prohibited. However, the central bank held a digital currency seminar earlier this year and planned to launch its own digital currency, which is different from cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin, Ruitai and Laite.

7. No, China has not yet recognized the currency of bitcoin
