❷ CCTV news investigation reveals the truth about "air currency"
On September 4 last year, the central bank issued a document clearly halting token issuance and financing. This kind of financing entity's behavior of raising so-called "virtual currencies" such as Bitcoin and Ethereum from investors through the illegal sale and circulation of tokens has since been banned in the country. Now half a year has passed, what is the market situation of virtual currency? CCTV Financial Channel's simulcast investigation team conducted an in-depth report on this.
The following is the full record of CCTV's "News Investigation", edited and compiled by ChainDD App:
The hot currency speculators still can't help it
In January this year, Yang Chao, a virtual currency investor, saw the price of Bitcoin rising and raised money to invest. However, he lost tens of millions in less than two months.
Virtual currency investor Yang Chao: The price I bought Bitcoin at that time was 100,000 yuan per gram. Then I bought about two to three million Bitcoins at this price. Then the price of Bitcoin began to decline and fall, and every time it fell by 10%, I would restock, replenish the spot, and buy the spot again.
In fact, this is not Yang Chao’s first time speculating in coins. Before the token issuance financing and trading platform was banned, his losses had exceeded 2 million. A reluctant Yang Chao believes that the ICO ban issued by the central bank has no impact on investors like him. However, the results of re-entry were even more disappointing.
Air coins appear frequently, and newly issued tokens increase more than 30 times
In the central bank’s document in September last year, token issuance financing was clearly defined as : "Essentially, it is an act of illegal public financing without approval, which is suspected of illegal sales of tokens, illegal issuance of securities, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal and criminal activities." However, because of technical convenience, the countryThe behavior of domestic "virtual currency" investors in buying and selling tokens still exists in large numbers, and is even getting more intense. Why is it so popular?
Mao Hongliang, Director of the Blockchain Research Office of the National Internet Financial Security Technical Expert Committee: After September, the number of online digital currencies has become much richer than before, such as Huobi and OK. There are more than 100 currencies, which makes this area even richer. Before September 2017, there were basically three, Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ethereum.
In the large number of new currencies, bubbles are increasing. Li Xiaolai, known as "China's No. 1 Bitcoiner", admitted that it is simply impossible to completely avoid the "bubble" in the token market. Investors' enthusiasm continues unabated, and the reason behind the endless supply of token issuance and financing is that tokens continue to break out in the market, or even disappear directly.
Virtual currency investor Li Xiaolai: There must be some coins that have been invested and then disappeared, disappeared, and were ruined. There must be some, and the proportion is quite large. I don’t tell you because I am embarrassed. Who has nothing to do to say that you think I am so stupid? Now it is obvious that there is a bubble, and there has always been a bubble, but no one knows where the bubble is or how big it is.
In the bubble, the most dangerous thing is the "air currency" that has no support from real projects at all.
On January 15, 2018, Hero Chain, known as the world's first gambling game platform to support digital cryptocurrency, "broke" immediately after it went online, falling from the issue price of 0.6 yuan to 0.05 yuan.
On March 14, the Public Security Bureau of a certain county in China opened a case for investigation on suspicion of fraud
In January 2018, the space chain, which focuses on "launching satellites" and building the concept of a space operating system, launched ICO
On January 10, the token SPC was issued to private equity investors, and nearly 1 billion yuan was raised privately in just one day
On March 28, the Space Chain project and related proxy investments were suspected of The fraud has been filed by the Development Zone Branch of the Yangzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau
On February 1, 2018, Art Chain was suspected of false propaganda and fell into a currency withdrawal crisis. Later, the project team conducted a 1:1 repurchase and the website is currently offline. , the founder disappeared.
There is another important reason for the frequent appearance of "air coins". Unlike other financing projects, the financing subject of token issuance financing does not need to be a real company, just a temporarily formed "team" can become the financing subject. After the central bank banned token issuance and financing, original domestic token projects have chosen to migrate their servers, financing subject registration places, etc. overseas. Token financing projects with "teams" as the main financing body do not even need to move their registration places. Everything can continue to raise money as usual.
Celebrity platforms ignore value and fall into capital money-making games
There is a logic behind the issuance of a large number of different types of tokens, that is, each token is based on a certain area Blockchain technology or applied “virtual currency”. Theoretically, to be optimistic about this kind of token is to be optimistic about the block behind it.chain technology. However, amidst the rapid rise and fall of the market, even some air coins, that is, tokens that do not have any real projects behind them, are still accepted by the market. What has actually happened?
The reporter found that for ordinary investors, in the current virtual currency pricing, even tokens that are truly supported by physical projects are difficult to price based on the valuation of physical projects with reference to IPO projects. When the information is completely opaque, the price of a virtual currency depends entirely on the packaging of the project and even who is behind the project. Li Xiaolai often appears in the promotion of some projects and becomes a platform person, including air projects.
Experts said that as long as capital is willing, even if there is no project behind the air currency, the price may rise significantly. Because countries lack effective supervision, capital can easily draw away the funds of small investors through ups and downs games. Such an operation is not difficult for a large number of newly issued tokens or small currencies with a small total financing amount in the current market. Non-disclosure, opacity, uncertainty of project value, and investors’ expectations of getting rich suddenly amplify the risks of the “virtual currency” market.
Liu Xiaolei, director of the Department of Finance at Peking University Guanghua School of Management and director of the Blockchain Laboratory: You have no value, but you can still speculate very high. Why? It’s just a fool. Although the value is zero, I It sells for ten yuan now, and there will be people willing to buy it for twenty yuan later. I'm looking for a bigger fool to sell it to him.
❸ What fields are involved in the 9 new occupations jointly released by the three departments?
The 9 new occupations jointly released by the three departments mainly involve the prevention and handling of public health emergencies. In addition, , as well as new business fields that meet the employment and entrepreneurship needs of college graduates, and areas that promote poverty alleviation that meet the needs of poor laborers and rural migrant workers.

In addition, five job categories including "Internet information auditor", "small and micro loan officer", "labor dispatch administrator" and "clay painting creator" have also become official professional titles.
(3) CCTV News Blockchain Technology Extended Reading:
The formal job title of e-commerce anchors is live broadcast salesperson
According to CCTV News, today (July 6), the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the State Administration for Market Regulation and the National Bureau of Statistics released 9 new occupations, including "Internet marketer", which refers to those who use the Internet on digital information platforms.Those who use the interactivity and communication credibility of the Internet to conduct multi-platform marketing and promotion of corporate products.
In addition, new job types developed by some professions were also announced, such as the "live broadcast salesperson" added to the Internet marketer profession, and the well-known "e-commerce anchors" and "influencers with goods" have officially professional title.
Tianyancha Professional Edition data shows that according to incomplete statistics, there are currently more than a thousand companies engaged in Internet celebrity-related businesses in my country, of which related companies established after 2017 account for about 50.42%.

The sum of related companies in the three places accounts for almost "half of the world" of internet celebrities. Among them, there are more than 100 companies in Guangzhou engaged in related businesses.
❹ Central media exposed 11 suspected MLM projects that use blockchain to issue coins
At the beginning of the new year, the sound of blessings is still in my ears. People's Daily Online, Tencent News and WeChat Security , Jiaozhen Platform and other authoritative content media released a list of projects involving pyramid schemes in 2018.
The reporter noticed that among the 78 projects involving pyramid schemes that were exposed, there were actually 11 projects that used the blockchain to carry out pyramid schemes and issue coins.
The losses caused by pyramid schemes under the guise of blockchain are far greater than ordinary crimes. Huge amounts of wealth are transferred through invisible hands, which is the biggest worm in the blockchain era.
On November 24, 2018, Sebastian Greenwood, the once all-powerful OneCoin principal criminal who had been at large for a long time, was successfully captured by the FBI and the Thai Crime Collection Bureau. Extradited to the United States for trial.
Bastian Greenwood is the main culprit of One Coin, a global Ponzi scheme. It is reported that OneCoin will set up a "One Awards" bonus system to reward participating members. These members often participate in projects initiated by this organization, and the so-called projects will raise funds for its global foundation.
But someone soon revealed: “OneCoin used publicity and overseas activities to pretend to be very ‘high-class’, and then through high rates of return and wooing acquaintances, it actually formed a huge MLM system."
In May 2018, domestic regulatory agencies discovered that there were approximately US$7.2 million in funds related to the OneCoin Ponzi scheme.
Virtual currency scams have been around for a long time. Some MLM methods are not clever, but they are harmful to people.
From April 2, 2016 to June 22, 2016, Ms. Li, a Zhongshan woman, was introduced to a man named Xu Moubin by her neighbor Ajun (pseudonym). During this period, Xu Moubin and Ajun repeatedly promoted virtual "mark coins" to her, and offered dividends and appreciation as temptations. She believed them to be true, and finallyIn the end, a total of about 600,000 yuan of "Mark coins" were purchased 9 times. It was not until February 2017, when the "Mark Coin" website was closed, that she discovered that she had been deceived.
Among the many MLM coin cases, the most “classic” case is the famous “Five Elements Coin” with a value of over 10 billion.
As early as 2013, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce listed Zhang Jian’s “Cloud Digital Trade Alliance” as a pyramid scheme; in October 2014, Zhang Jian was arrested; in December 2016, Zhang Jian Soon after he was released from prison, he launched the Five Elements Coin MLM project. It is reported that the Five Elements Coin project also has Zhang Jian’s profile picture, but Zhang Jian is actually just a junior high school student whose real name is Song Miqiu. In June 2017, Zhang Jian was arrested and returned to China from Indonesia. This absurd farce ended and the legendary Zhang Jian finally fell from the altar.
According to the reporter's understanding, among the 11 MLM coin projects this time, there is also a "real and fake Monkey King" plot. The MLM organization used Stellar Lumens, which ranks sixth in the world's market value, to issue its own " Stellar Lumens", investors fell into the trap if they were not careful.
Tell me another story about Dogecoin.
In 2017, Dogecoin was listed by CCTV as one of the 350 MLM organizations. However, under the control of desire, it cannot stop the strong rise of Dogecoin.
Dogecoin, a cute emoticon dog head, is called Dogecoin in English and code-named DOGE. It was born in December 2013. Co-founder Jackson Palmer said that he did it as a joke at first, just to mock Bitcoin. Later, with the help of reddit (an American social news site), within two weeks, the Dogecoin project website immediately became popular.
It can be said that the birth of Dogecoin has a lot to do with American Internet culture. On the American Tieba reddit, the doge emoticon is as popular as the three domestic emoticon giants, which means it is equivalent to the domestic tycoon.
The founder said that Dogecoin is not like Bitcoin. People do not participate in it for speculation, but to express emotions of sharing and concern. This also means that at the beginning, the spread of dogecoin relied on sharing between people.
Messari’s OnChainFX data shows that Dogecoin had more average daily active addresses in December 2018 than in December 2017, making Dogecoin the third most active address after Bitcoin and Ethereum. Cryptocurrency with the most active addresses.
Currently, Dogecoin is second only to Bitcoin and Ethereum in terms of daily active addresses, reaching 72,955 in a day. Bitcoin currently has 536,738 active addresses, Ethereum has 235,004, and Tron has onlyThere are 21,255. The popularity of Dogecoin is evident.
According to real-time data from the cryptocurrency tracking website Coinmarketcap, the price of Dogecoin today is hovering around $0.0023, and its market value has dropped to $268 million from the highest of $1.7 billion on January 9, 2018. . Like most other currencies, it fell by more than 80% in one year.
However, Dogecoin’s market value still ranks 24th in the global market value rankings. Compared with more than 2,000 cryptocurrencies, it still looks down upon all living beings.
Today, Bitcoin has been rectified under the light of blockchain, and few people have mentioned its ancient past that was single-handedly promoted by the dark web. But it is undeniable that there are still a large number of MLM coins that use the name of blockchain to conduct pyramid schemes.
While the blockchain carries the technical ideals of geeks, it is also being benefited by those who are interested.
At present, in the early stages of the development of blockchain technology, a strange circle has gradually formed in which idealists and deceivers coexist, and speculators drive out pragmatists. As the cold winter in the currency circle comes, projects collapse one after another, and bad coins drive out good coins.
There is a joke about a blockchain person chatting with an MLM person, and the MLM person was shocked: "What you are doing is illegal."
In fact, MLM people are thinking about one question all the time, that is, how to make it legal. Can I cheat openly and openly after obtaining a direct selling license? It turns out it can't.
After the Tianjin Quanjian incident broke out, on January 1 this year, Quanjian Natural Medicine Technology Development Co., Ltd. was placed under investigation on suspicion of organizing and leading pyramid schemes and false advertising. Then, as everyone was eagerly waiting, news came out on January 7 that 18 suspects including Quanjian’s boss Shu Yuhui had been detained.
The great transfer of social wealth is often accompanied by technological revolution, which is more dependent on material attributes than virtual attributes.
It is understandable that capital will use any means to pursue interests. Because this is the property of capital. At the same time, technology has no values. Whoever masters the technology will benefit from it.
In the past, MLM organizations tried to achieve freedom of wealth by pulling people’s heads without mastering capital or technology. Nowadays, MLM organizations have found a new way to "get rich" and effectively avoid legal supervision, which is to issue MLM coins under the guise of blockchain.
Seeing is worth hearing a hundred times. 24/7 digital currency transactions throughout the year, unknown currencies that multiply a thousand times a day, and the myth of wealth creation with one coin per villa. While blockchain is on fire, digital currencies are also on fire.
"Blockchain is not a bubble, Bitcoin is." Jack Ma has promoted his views in public more than once. Unfortunately, in the eyes of most investors, blockchain is digital currency, and digital currency is blockchain.
The reporter learned that some MLM projects that use blockchain to issue coins will move outside the government's strong support for the blockchain industry, but avoid talking about relevant digital currency supervision.
“Many MLM coins only borrow the name of blockchain and do not use any blockchain technology. They are still different from the famous air coins in the currency circle. At least they are actually using it. Blockchain technology." said one investor.
"It's tragic enough that talent is not enough to support ambition. What's even worse is that the whole body is full of ambition, but the IQ is squeezed into hell." The family members were fascinated by the "stellar currency" and lost all their money. At that time, a netizen’s message was thought-provoking.
The Asia-European currency fraud involved 4 billion yuan, and more than 70,000 people were deceived; the GCB glory currency involved hundreds of millions of yuan, and it has hundreds of thousands of registered members; the EGD network gold involved 10.9 billion yuan, and the registered members As many as 500,000 people; Wanfu Coin involved a case amount of 2 billion yuan, with 130,000 registered members; Darkcoin involved a case amount of 1.5 billion yuan, with more than 30,000 registered members; OneCoin involved a case amount of 600 million yuan, with 1.8 million registered members; The amount involved in the Laihui Coin case is 500 million yuan, with 200,000 registered members...
According to the reporter’s understanding, the number of MLM coins currently on the market is far more than the number listed this time.
Comparing the overall MLM cases in my country, the China Judgment Document Network shows that from 2002 to 2018, the total number of MLM cases in my country was 14,658, including 1,869 in 2014, 1,417 in 2015, and 1,417 in 2016. There were 3,085 cases in 2017, 3,313 cases in 2017, and 3,612 cases in 2018. The overall growth trend is much smaller than that of virtual currency pyramid schemes.
Based on the 166 cases of virtual currency pyramid schemes in 2018, in just a few years, virtual currency pyramid schemes have accounted for 5% of my country’s overall pyramid schemes (166/3612). This does not include the numerous ICO (Initial Coin Offering) MLM projects that are registered overseas and cannot be dismissed domestically for the time being.
The essence of MLM coins is actually not much different from traditional MLM. The methods of attracting people, developing offline, and issuing physical objects as collateral are already bad. But in the face of such familiar routines, investment Still unable to resist.
Under poverty and economic weakness, greed and hunger that have nowhere to go have become the biggest breeding ground for MLM coins. What about MLM coins? In front of desire, there is no need for IQ.
In this market, faced with endless temptations, most people are unable to distinguish whether this is a profitable investment.It's still a waste of money scam. Under the temptation of greed, MLM has jumped on the blockchain train.
But please remember: pyramid schemes have been like tigers and wolves since ancient times, and a dream will eventually turn into a nightmare.
❺ The virtual currency scam was exposed by CCTV
The virtual currency scam was exposed by CCTV
The virtual currency scam was exposed by CCTV. This type of network uses virtual currency as a gimmick. MLM cases have appeared as early as three or four years ago, and there are more cases abroad. The characteristics of this type of cases are obvious. They are basically hyped with new virtual currency-related concepts. The virtual currency scam was exposed by CCTV.
The virtual currency scam was exposed by CCTV 1In daily life, there are often strange phone calls claiming to attract people to join the stock group for free; there are also often advertisements for various stock lectures on online platforms. Many people have the mentality of just joining the group to watch and listen to the classes without spending any money. Unexpectedly, they fall into the whirlpool of being cheated step by step and suffer heavy losses. During the investigation, the reporter found that the so-called "teachers" in these stock groups first recommended stocks. After gaining trust, they would recommend self-issued virtual digital currencies to defraud investors of their money.
Websites claiming 100 times premium for "virtual currency" were shut down and money ran away
After lurking into the stock group as an investor, the reporter discovered that there were many victims across the country because of free money. And join the group.
Sound source - lecture audio of a certain stock group: Bateman is my country's first and only digital currency platform that is about to be launched. The platform wants to issue its platform currency equivalent to its stock, which is equivalent to an IPO. I expect its platform currency to have a premium of 10 to 20 times, or even 100 times.
Under the temptation of so-called huge profits of 10 times to 100 times, many people buy large amounts of "virtual coins". Suddenly, the Bateman virtual currency trading platform was shut down overnight without warning, the stock group was disbanded, and no so-called "teacher" or "customer service" could be contacted anymore, and all the funds invested by the victims could not be withdrawn. Some victims said that the amount of money they were defrauded reached up to one million yuan.
Beijing investors: At 1 o'clock in the morning on April 9, I woke up in the middle of the night and took a look at the disk on my mobile phone. I found that the platform could not be opened, all the numbers were gone, and my account number was also gone. It's empty, those groups are gone, and all links can't be opened. In total, I was defrauded of more than 400,000 yuan, and some were defrauded of more than 1 million yuan.
Investor from Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province: My husband was sick, and we took out a loan. Basically, the more than 1 million yuan was borrowed. The main problem now is that I have children who are studying. If I can't pay off my credit card, my credit score will be affected. If my children can't study, my credit will be in trouble. I'm at my wits end.
A woman with nearly 20 years of stock trading experience is very cautious in investing and feels that she will not be deceived. At first, she watched other people in the group follow the teacher's calculations.Word Currency was also unmoved. However, as people in the group kept posting some super-profitable profit screenshots, and the "teachers" continued to brainwash them, they invested their first money with the mentality of giving it a try.
Investors from Pingdingshan City, Henan Province: I still couldn’t resist the temptation. I transferred 4,000 yuan first, then won the lottery again during the new lottery. I bought it again at 12 o’clock in the evening, which was equivalent to a total investment of 44,000 yuan. After investing in it, he said it was a lock-up period and started to issue platform coins again. The platform coins were 10 times more profitable.
Xia Yu, a lawyer at Beijing Kangda Law Firm: According to Article 266 of my country’s Criminal Law, suspected of fraud, depending on the specific circumstances of the crime, may be sentenced to a maximum of more than 10 years. Imprisonment, even life imprisonment.
Using stock lectures as a cover to deceive the elderly with human kindness
Why is this common fraud scheme so successful? The reporter found that in addition to playing emotional cards to gain the trust of victims, the most important thing is that these fraud gangs have repeatedly pretended to be large-scale formal financial platforms to endorse themselves, fabricating some false stories of getting rich overnight to lure victims into taking the bait.
The reporter saw in the stock group that this online lecture platform is called "LANXESS Double Lecture Hall". Investors joined through the stock teaching advertisements it released, and many people initially entered the platform to listen to the lessons with the mentality of giving it a try. In addition to giving lectures, the so-called "teacher" will also post long articles to answer questions for the "students" in the middle of the night every day, and the "assistant teacher" with a beautiful girl's avatar will answer the stock questions of the "students" at any time. After gradually gaining trust, the "teacher" persuades the "students" to buy virtual digital currency.
Investor in Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province: He started to recommend a few stocks to you and made money. However, he ignored the next few stocks he recommended and kept asking you to hold them. Then he said that the current market is not good. Let you sell all your stocks and buy new coins.
Beijing investors: The profits of virtual currency are too high. They can rise from a few yuan to dozens of yuan in a short while. Our final speculation will reach 10 times. He lectures in a persuasive and instructive manner, with a strong human touch and special concern for people.
Many victims told reporters that they had also had suspicions, but fraud gangs often used the identities of some large brokerage firms as endorsements to confuse investors. The reporter saw in the stock group that once an investor If you express doubts, you will be banned or kicked out of the group immediately. In the end, the victims who have never been exposed to virtual currencies and lack financial knowledge are left behind.
The victims revealed to reporters that until now they have never seen this so-called Mr. Li of the securities company, and they don’t even know his full name.
Moreover, they realized afterward that the "Bateman Virtual Currency Trading Platform" did not actually exist, and the so-called "virtual currency" new prices and price increases and decreases were not real and were completely a fraud. A digital illusion directed and performed by the platform.
Five types of online fraud are repeatedly banned. The police warn of risks
At present, many victims have reported the crime. During the investigation, the reporter found that there are still many similar fraud gangs still committing fraud. So, how should ordinary investors avoid being cheated?
Multiple victims told reporters that they have recently discovered that new stock lecture platforms and new digital currency trading platforms have emerged. When they registered and logged in using their mobile phone numbers and ID card information, they found that anyone who had previously registered on the Bateman Trading Platform had their accounts frozen after registering on the new so-called "Osman Trading Platform". Enter.
Beijing investor: I discovered an Ottoman platform, which is also a digital currency. The content is the same as Bateman, but the name is different. There are some differences in currency types, but other operation methods, including fund management, new currency subscription, flow inquiry, etc., are exactly the same.
The reporter found on multiple online platforms that many victims were deceived by the same method at different times. Except for the different names of the platforms and lecturers, the other deception methods were almost exactly the same. Many victims have called the police after learning that they were deceived.
Staff of Hongxing Police Station, Daxing Branch of Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau: This case has been filed and investigation has been launched, and the criminal police will be responsible for the later investigation.
The police said that there are many similar fraud cases, and investors must be more vigilant. If they feel abnormal after transferring money to an unfamiliar account, they should call the police immediately.
At present, there are more than 50 types of fraud discovered by the public security organs, among which 5 main types of cases occur frequently, namely online bill rebates, false investment and financial management, and false online loans. , pretending to be customer service, and pretending to be public prosecutor.
Xia Yu, lawyer at Beijing Kangda Law Firm: I would like to remind investors to choose formal and legal investment channels. Keep in mind that "pie in the sky will never fall" and be wary of investments with ultra-high returns.
Virtual currency scam exposed by CCTV 2With the support of the Metaverse concept, various NFT chain game projects are booming, and criminal gangs are also following the trend, developing so-called chain game projects, issuing game tokens and Launched decentralized exchange.
Ling Feng revealed that such online pyramid schemes using virtual currencies as a gimmick had appeared three or four years ago, and there were more cases abroad. "The characteristics of this type of case are obvious. They basically use new virtual currency-related concepts to hype up and attract people to participate in investment." He said.
Ling Feng said, “On Twitter, Tieba and other platforms, if someone takes the initiative to chat privately and introduce their projects to you, then these can basically be judged as scams; if someone sends an invitation code, it is basically a scam. It can be determined as a pyramid scheme."
According to the "2021 Blockchain and Virtual Currency Crime Trend Research Report" released by Zhifan Technology (hereinafter(referred to as "Report"), the models of virtual currency pyramid schemes mainly include exchange model, wallet model, false "smart contract" model, smart contract model, mining machine rental model, cloud mining machine model, quantitative robot model, short video model , matrix DAPP mode, chain game metaverse mode these 10 typical situations.
Take the currently popular "Metaverse" as an example. With the support of the Metaverse concept, various NFT chain game projects are booming, and criminal gangs are also following the trend to develop so-called chain game projects and issue Game tokens are listed on decentralized exchanges.
The "Report" pointed out that such cases usually involve project parties attracting investors through hot spots, affiliated with well-known projects, etc., continuously increasing the value of game tokens, and relying on high returns from a combination of dynamic and static To attract more speculators to join, the essence is still to expand the fund pool by relying on users to exchange the mainstream currency consumed by the platform currency, and the project team takes the opportunity to arbitrage money and run away.
According to industry insiders, as a new form of online MLM, virtual currency MLM is highly concealed, but the deception is ever-changing and has nothing more than three typical characteristics: First, the entry fee, investors need to pass Pay a fee to obtain the qualification to join; the second is to attract people, the income of MLM participants comes from the fees paid by the downline members they develop; the third is compound remuneration, and remuneration is based on the number of direct or indirect development personnel.
In response to the above-mentioned situations, relevant departments are also increasing supervision. For example, at the end of February 2022, the Supreme People's Court included virtual currency transactions into the illegal absorption of funds for the first time. In addition, the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission has also previously issued risk warnings on preventing illegal fund-raising in the name of "Yuanverse".
The reporter noticed that during this year’s two sessions, many deputies to the National People’s Congress and members of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference also expressed their views on strengthening the supervision of industries related to the Metaverse. Tan Jianfeng, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, president of the Fifth Space Information Technology Research Institute, and honorary president of the Shanghai Information Security Industry Association, said that currently, NFT virtual artworks (such as cartoon portraits, electronic oil paintings) based on blockchain technology When the "Metaverse" becomes popular, but supervision is difficult to implement, new money laundering channels may be formed.
"To deepen the development of the digital economy, it must be integrated with the real economy. However, at the same time, we must beware of capital taking advantage of national development plans and hot concepts to create new virtual economic bubbles and prevent individuals from taking advantage of policy dividends." ', cut investors' leeks." Tan Jianfeng said.
Wang Peng, associate professor at Renmin University of China, told reporters that there are currently endless online frauds including telecommunications fraud, illegal fund-raising, etc., which mainly take advantage of two public mentality. One is the emergence of new technologies, new elements or new applications. , everyone generally does not understand it; the second is the speculative psychology, speculating without understanding and trying to make a quick buck.
To this end, Wang Peng put forward the following suggestions to prevent online fraud using concepts such as the Metaverse and NFT as gimmicks. First, relevant government regulatory authorities should strengthen crackdowns., discover relevant clues in a timely manner, cut them off in time, and deal with them in time, instead of turning small problems into big social problems before dealing with them;
The second is industry associations, etc. Relevant professional institutions should issue relevant industry codes for new technologies such as Yuanverse and NFT to strengthen public education; third, the mass media should strengthen relevant publicity. On the one hand, they should strengthen publicity on the technology application itself and remove the mystery of the technology. On the other hand, it is to increase everyone's risk awareness.
"Finally, I think from my own perspective, one is to strengthen the study of technology, and don't follow what others say. Risks and returns are directly proportional. The higher the returns, the higher the risks; second, don't believe in the so-called It’s a good opportunity, so be cautious about saying you can make quick money in a short period of time, and think about the problem from a long-term perspective,” Wang Peng said.
The virtual currency scam was exposed by CCTV 3Recently, more than 150,000 young people in the Philippines are addicted to playing a pet-raising game to make money. The principle is that players obtain electronic cards by raising an elf. This kind of card is actually a kind of virtual currency, and players can freely trade it on a dedicated online encryption trading platform in exchange for real currency.
These young people obtain virtual currencies by "mining" and can earn an income ranging from several hundred dollars per month. This is essentially a blockchain token game disguised as a game. However, in the Philippines, where the per capita monthly income is about US$200, you can earn a lot of money playing games, which is undoubtedly very attractive to young people. .
However, it should be noted that making profits through blockchain token games is unstable and may even be a scam. For example, the "Mars Volunteers" blockchain game became popular at the beginning of this year. Although it has attracted the attention of Metaverse and Musk, promoting "play and earn" and earning up to 10,000 times, it needs to spend more than 600 yuan to purchase virtual currency first. In the end, the high profits promoted by the game were wiped out due to the collapse of currency value.
In response to this kind of behavior, the "Risk Warning on Preventing Illegal Fund-raising in the Name of "Yuanverse"" issued by the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission on February 18 this year mentioned that, Some criminals took advantage of the hot spots and absorbed funds under the names of "Yuanshi Investment Project" and "Yuanshi Chain Game", and were suspected of illegal fund-raising, fraud and other illegal and criminal activities. In essence, how much money can be exchanged for virtual tokens obtained in the name of playing games is based on extremely unstable market transaction values. Once it collapses, it will eventually become a bubble game.
Therefore, China has always focused on the supervision of Bitcoin. In May last year, the Financial Stability and Development Committee of the State Council held a meeting, requiring resolute prevention and control of financial risks and crackdown on Bitcoin mining and trading. From a purely technical perspective, professional mining machines are far more efficient than ordinary game-playing machines in terms of blockchain “mining” efficiency. China once accounted for more than 60% of the global "mining" computing power, and many "miners" deployed massive mining machines in China in search of cheap energy sources such as small hydropower.
However, even though China can obtain some overseas income by mining various currencies such as Bitcoin, it still resolutely shut down mines in various places, and its proportion of global computing power quickly dropped to less than 5%. This is the right decision, because a huge amount of energy is wasted just to produce casino chips, which is not beneficial to China as a whole. Many people have found that the previous surge in the price of graphics cards is related to the large number of graphics cards being used for mining. If young people are encouraged to participate in blockchain currency speculation, the consequences will be even worse.
However, there are not many countries in the world that are as resolute in regulating and shutting down all kinds of blockchain currency speculation as China. Due to the huge pressure in life, Korean youths have participated in digital currency games, hoping to get rich overnight. In the winter of 2017, two-thirds of the world’s largest Bitcoin transactions occurred in South Korea.
There is no doubt that the development of digital technology is the highlight of the global economy in the new century, but it is not necessarily a good thing for young people in the "e era". Young people in most countries around the world grew up in an era of rapid development of digital technology. Influenced by various myths about getting rich, their perception of wealth is also changing. The way that the previous generation worked hard on factory assembly lines to accumulate wealth is "gone" in the minds of young people and is no longer attractive.
In fact, for countries with a large labor force and lack of employment opportunities, such as the Philippines, even factory assembly line jobs with average incomes are a good starting point for young people, and factories can also provide a large number of jobs. The local government Very welcome. However, electronic culture invaded these countries before industrial culture, and only low-end computers and mobile phones were enough to make young people in the entire country addicted to it.
Therefore, some countries are aware of this problem and will guide digital technology to the right uses, such as promoting remote teaching during the epidemic, limiting the time for teenagers to play games, and Game content is regulated. However, the development levels of countries around the world are different. It is no longer easy to enjoy the fruits of digital technology through development. To further promote the advantages and eliminate the disadvantages, it poses higher challenges.
No matter how advanced science and technology are, if the country wants to achieve long-term development, the spirit of young people’s hard work cannot be lost. It is the proper meaning of a positive energy society to get rid of the fog woven by technology and correctly understand the Ponzi schemes or bubble economic hype under various new packages.
With the continuous advancement of various technologies such as artificial intelligence, robots, and new energy, the nature of labor in traditional industries may one day fundamentally change, but this change requires leading young people to real jobs. scientific and technological innovation, rather than increasingly indulging in the bubble game of "capital and human nature".
❻ Who knows what Bitcoin is and how it works
Bitcoin is a P2P virtual encrypted digital currency. Peer-to-peer transmission means a decentralized payment system. Unlike all currencies, Bitcoin is not issued by a specific monetary institution.Specific algorithms are generated through extensive calculations.
Bitcoin and its many derivatives are known as cryptocurrencies. The system uses cryptography to generate new coins and verify transfers. Encrypted sequences serve several purposes: making transactions nearly impossible to forge; making money banks or currency wallets easily transferable as data; and verifying the transfer of Bitcoins from one user to another.
Before Bitcoin can be used, new coins must be generated or mined by the system. The encoding and decoding process of these blocks requires a lot of computing power, and those users who successfully generate new blocks will be rewarded with some Bitcoin or a portion of the transaction fees.
In this way, the same process of transferring Bitcoins from one user to another also creates demand for more computing power to be contributed to the Bitcoin network on an equal footing. This generates new coins that can be used.

The role of Bitcoin
Bitcoin is just like in reality Like gold coins: they have value and can be traded like gold coins. It is possible to invest with Bitcoin – buy the cryptocurrency and profit from its price fluctuations. Every day there are new places listing Bitcoin as a payment method.
Bitcoin does not have an official price. The price of Bitcoin is determined based on what people are willing to pay. The price of Bitcoin is usually expressed in terms of the cost of one Bitcoin. However, exchanges will generally allow purchases for any amount, meaning you can buy less than one Bitcoin. Libertex's Price Index is a great resource for checking Bitcoin prices instantly.

❼ The central government released an annual report: The high-quality development of cultural, cultural and creative industries must rely on digital technologies such as blockchain
"Culture is also a productive force, but it still faces problems such as cultural management and unclear data property rights. It is necessary to use digital technology to build new infrastructure, build a cultural sharing data platform, and use science and technology to promote the cultural economy." December 18, 12th session Liu Binjie, chairman of the Science, Education, Culture and Health Committee of the National People's Congress and dean of the School of Journalism and Communication at Tsinghua University, said at the 8th China Cultural and Economic Development Forum.
Wei Pengju, Dean of the Institute of Cultural Economics of the Central University of Finance and Economics and Distinguished Professor of Longma Scholars, released the annual key research report "Blockchain Technology Activating Digital Cultural Heritage" at the forum. The report pointed out that innovative forms of digital culture represented by digital collections not only make cultural heritage "alive" in the new digital era, but also make them "popular" among the new generation of young people, becoming a tool to promote high-quality development of culture. New momentum.
In recent years, with the rapid development of blockchain, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, extended reality and other technologies, the production cost of digital content has been greatly reduced, and it has promoted the upgrade of hardware consumption experience and content production efficiency. improvement, thisThese have laid the technical foundation for new cultural forms including cultural relics.
The central finance report pointed out that digital technology with blockchain as the core has three major roles: standardizing digital content standards, clarifying the ownership of digital content rights, and improving the construction of digital museums. Therefore, digital technology is the best way to promote good cultural protection, inheritance and utilization, and blockchain will become a new generation infrastructure for the digitalization of cultural relics.
2021 has become the first year of digital collections. Ant and Tencent have successively launched digital collection distribution platforms Whaletan (formerly known as Ant Chain Fan Granules) and Magic Core. Among them, Ant Whale Explorer launched the "Treasure Project" on October 21, which focuses on the cultural and museum fields. It currently provides digital collection services to 17 cultural and museum institutions, including the Forbidden City, National Museum, Hubei Provincial Museum, Hunan Provincial Museum, and Henan Museum.
Taking Ant Whale Explorer’s digital collection as an example, the report summarizes the significance of China’s digital collection: First, it is compliant and controllable, in line with national regulations and policies, and creates a new type of confirmable and traceable cultural consumption; second, Chinese companies have sufficient independent research and development technology guarantees. In the Top 100 global highly relevant blockchain authorized invention patent rankings in 2021, Ant Group ranked first with 1,252 patents, followed by Tencent with 391 patents, and third The name is that IBM has 297 pieces; the third is the advantage of user scale; the fourth is win-win cooperation, and the protection, inheritance and dissemination of traditional culture have become more efficient; the fifth is low carbon and environmental protection, the energy consumption of digital collections is extremely low, and there is no supply chain About 1% of NFT is truly low-carbon and environmentally friendly.
“When promoting the identification and management of cultural artworks, we can use high technologies such as blockchain to improve efficiency, reduce costs, simplify procedures, increase penalties, and promote intellectual property protection. , to promote the healthy development of the digital cultural industry." Yan Dongsheng, Secretary of the Party Committee of the National Art Museum of China, said at the forum.
Wei Pengju said that the high-quality development of cultural and creative industries must also rely on the new generation of information technology represented by blockchain to improve industrial efficiency, expand communication influence, and promote excellent culture.
