The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) cracked down on the exploitation of virtual currency. What are the hazards of virtual currency mining activities?

The hazards of virtual currency mining are as follows:

The "mining" behavior of virtual currency is extremely harmful.

First of all, virtual currency "mining" consumes a lot of energy and carbon emissions, which has not played a positive role in promoting industrial development and scientific and technological progress. Secondly, the risks derived from virtual currency production and exchange are becoming more and more prominent, and its blind and disorderly development has a serious adverse impact on promoting high-quality economic and social development and energy conservation and emission reduction.

Remediation of virtual currency "mining" activities is of great significance to promote the optimization of China's industrial structure, promote energy conservation and emission reduction, and achieve the peak carbon dioxide emission and carbon neutrality goals as scheduled.

Remediation of mining behavior:

202 1, Jiangsu provincial communications administration conducted a comprehensive investigation on the "mining" behavior of virtual currency in Jiangsu province. It is found that the export flow of virtual currency activities in Jiangsu Province reaches 136.77mbps, and the total number of Internet IP addresses involved in "mining" is 4,502, which consumes more computing power resources than 10ph/s and 260,000 kWh/ day.

Take Ethereum and Bitcoin, which have more virtual currency mining activities in the province, for example, Suzhou, Xuzhou and Nanjing have more mining activities. Judging from the attribution and nature of IP addresses, the proportion of party and government organs, universities and enterprises that have been invaded and used for virtual currency "mining" is about 2 1%.

Jiangsu Communications Administration Bureau continued to analyze the situation of virtual currency "mining", further combined with relevant departments to form a "multi-dimensional, multi-level" disposal system, disposed of relevant websites and mobile applications according to law, and cooperated with the tracing and crackdown of illegal virtual currency transactions.
