Supervision plans to ban virtual currency trading platform
(1) at present, there is no regulation to regulate the trading platform, but the trading platform should also fulfill the audit obligation. For example, when online trading various network virtual currencies, it should audit whether the currency is a network virtual currency based on blockchain technology
(2) if the trading platform knows that the online trading currency is suspected of MLM, but in order to collect Commission, it also provides trading services for the currency and promotes its development, once the currency is identified as MLM, the trading platform may have to bear certain legal liabilities
(3) at the same time, a large number of customers' funds are stored in the accounts of virtual currency trading institutions. However, all online virtual currency trading institutions are not qualified to absorb public funds, which makes trading institutions face the potential risk of illegal fund-raising
the 2017 version of the guide to the identification of internet pyramid selling (hereinafter referred to as the guide) lists several differences between virtual currency and pyramid selling currency:
(1) from the perspective of issuing mode, virtual currency does not rely on specific monetary institutions, it is a decentralized issuing mode according to specific algorithms; The MLM currency is mainly issued by a certain institution, and the profit is made by pulling the head
(2) from the perspective of transaction mode, virtual currency is a kind of sporadic transaction spontaneously formed by the market. After the scale is formed, the transaction is graally completed by a third party establishing an exchange, while MLM currency is issued by an institution and traded on its own platform
(3) from the perspective of implementation, virtual currency itself is an open source program, while the open source of MLM currency is completely ing other people's open source code, and there is no use of open source code to build programs, which is essentially controlled by the website as Q coin.
On January 18, the business management department of the people's Bank of China issued the "notice on carrying out self inspection and rectification of payment services for illegal virtual currency transactions", which made it clear that the unit and its branches are strictly prohibited from providing services for virtual currency transactions, and took effective measures to prevent payment channels from being used for virtual currency transactions
the notice also shows that for the discovered virtual currency transactions, the payment channels of relevant transaction entities should be closed in time, and the funds to be settled should be properly handled
reported and quoted pan Gongsheng as saying in the memo: "we should always maintain a high pressure on the virtual money market, strictly prevent the risk of virtual money from gathering again, and eliminate the potential risks in the bud." He also said that the national and local authorities should ban the places that provide bitcoin and other virtual currency centralized trading, as well as the so-called "wallet" service providers that provide guarantee and clearing services for virtual currency centralized trading, and indivials or institutions that provide market maker services for centralized trading
With the popularity of bitcoin and other virtual currencies, the risk of fueling illegal economic activities is increasing. The reporter recently learned that the regulatory authorities will ban the domestic virtual currency trading platform
for ordinary consumers, investing in bitcoin is also risky. Many experts and regulators in China have repeatedly appealed that virtual currency trading platforms such as bitcoin are lack of supervision and have become tools for money laundering in illegal economic activities. At the same time, these trading platforms are vulnerable to manipulation by makers, resulting in huge price fluctuations and easy to make retail investors suffer losses. They have become channels for manipulation and ransacking of retail investors by makers and should be banned as soon as possible
"banning bitcoin trading platform is a channel for banning the massive exchange between bitcoin and legal tender, not bitcoin." A person close to the regulator said that the ban on activities related to bitcoin exchange does not affect the development of blockchain technology
the reporter learned from the China Internet Finance Association that the reminder on preventing the risks of bitcoin and other so-called "virtual currencies" released on September 13 said that in recent years, bitcoin and other so-called "virtual currencies" have carried out centralized transactions on some Internet platforms, the number of stakeholders has graally expanded, and the potential financial and social risks can not be ignored
the Internet Finance Association stressed: "there is no legal basis for the establishment of various so-called" currency "trading platforms in China." Investors participate in speculation through bitcoin and other so-called "virtual currency" trading platforms, and face the risk of price fluctuations and security risks. Recently, a large number of trading platforms have been stopped by the regulatory authorities for supporting the token issuance financing (ICO)
more virtual money will inevitably disturb the social order, and it is an inevitable trend to restrict virtual money< br />
With regard to the digital currency which has soared tens of thousands of times before, various policies and news are constantly emerging. Bitcoin fell from the highest point of 130000 to about 40000, and Shanzhai digital coin even fell to 99%. But Xiangge said that the transaction will not end, but there will be periodic fluctuations. In the news of China financial news network, I communicated with senior people in the currency circle for the first time. When the news is all over the place and people are in a panic, the more we need to listen to the ideas and opinions of professionals.
