ZDNet: how do you see bitcoin legal risks?

Xu star: bitcoin just born in the beginning, because the transaction means convenience, there are a lot of people use bitcoins to buy drugs or guns, which give the left a very good impression. But in fact dollars will definitely go buy more, any kind of valuable things are likely to be used in this place,

ZDNet: bitcoin is how generated?

Xu star: Some people think that Bitcoin is the product of sophisticated technology, but technology is only the Bitcoin technology. It was born in the background is the global inflation. The currency is the man's first shell, then start with precious metals, is now basically a sovereign currency. Before the advent of the national monetary sovereignty is no inflation, the state treasury if you want to expand only three ways: looting, mining and increasing circulation to collect taxes. In that era country if you want additional money is very difficult.

In World War II, most countries began to adopt the Bretton Woods system, simply means that the currency must be linked with the gold reserves. But in fact in the last three decades, this system has basically been broken, national currency to follow countries' own theories, but the basic theory is that the amount of money in circulation needs. But this is not so clear.

This makes a lot of countries have experienced serious inflation, followed by a computer algorithm mathematicians have tried to simulate the properties of gold, the gold of the main attributes are the following: distribution of scattered, difficult as well as distribution and mining exploitation without the will of the people as the main .

Bitcoin can be well simulated gold these three attributes.

ZDNet: how about the history of virtual currency?

Xu star: Historically, there have been a variety of virtual currency, but eventually failed, mainly because the government does not like virtual currency, which the company is vulnerable to government pressure. But Bitcoin algorithm is completely open, even bitcoin designers can not control, bitcoin release came out in accordance with the characteristics of the network to run automatically, the designer can not freely accessible.

ZDNet: there are other virtual currencies do?

XU Ming: This is a natural question, since there bitcoin, why not have A Coin, B credits appear? But it is actually very difficult, because Bitcoin computing power has passed to establish a monetary confidence. Now there are dozens of world virtual currency, but in addition Bitcoin currency other than only one line is also a slight value.

ZDNet: there is high profits do?

Xu star: Nissan bitcoin now the world's largest number of companies in Shenzhen, China, a day just by mining bitcoin able income 300,000 yuan.

The U.S. government is certainly not like Bitcoin, the attitude of the United States now is to strengthen the supervision on bitcoin. China currently has a virtual currency management approach is the virtual currency can be traded, no problem, but can not be used to pay for the real thing.

But now only ten billion U.S. dollars bitcoin scale industries, but also did not lead to government level attention.

ZDNet: What are the benefits of Bitcoin?

Xu star: At least dozens, but the scale is not large. Before the advent of this form in the exchange, Bitcoin often through Taobao transactions.

ZDNet: If you now want to enter the mining industry, as well as the opportunity to do?

Xu star: current trends in the world of mining machines shipped to China, because China's electricity cheaper. Mining industry, but now there is a lot of fraud. According to current computing power, a machine about two months before starting to make money, but now the mining machines are using futures model, that the first payment, the machine only after two or three months, but then the calculation of bitcoin capacity has basically doubled, and many people find this machine does not come back even electricity are earned.

ZDNet: Bitcoin has an upper limit will affect development?

Xu star: bitcoin is split, in theory, can be divided into eight decimal places, if someday 21 million is not enough, you can move the position of the decimal point, and now looks for hundreds of years do not appear bitcoins shortage phenomenon.

ZDNet: from a real means of transaction bitcoin How far?

Xu Stars: Now look, about Bitcoin transactions are mostly conducted around the investment instruments, to become the trading currency from the real gap still very far away. This is mainly because the price of bitcoins now floating large and too concentrated. Bitcoin adequate dispersion such as the future price will be stable, when there may be an opportunity to become currency.

This second story is about Chinese companies getting involved in Bitcoin, which should set off your "bubble alert." Not necessarily that Bitcoin is in a bubble just yet, but that companies are trying to use it to pump up their stock prices, just like companies did with the Internet in the late 1990s. In one sense then, it is very positive for Bitcoin because it shows the currency has some real attraction.

Financial writer Song Hongbing : Basic trends is the social flat, we do not need a central server for information transmission, but the point of interaction, bitcoin is not necessarily the final shape of the monetary system, but this is certainly representative of the direction of social evolution orientation.

Analysts say the main reason Bitcoin market triggered by rising against the dollar and concerns about the impact of real monetary system.
