央广网北京12月5日消息 据中国之声《新闻晚高峰》报道，听说过17世纪荷兰的"郁金香热"吗？当郁金香从土耳其传到西欧，又被培育出美丽的变种以后，它开始在荷兰盛行。据说当时因为价格一直在涨，很多人卖了房、卖了地，也要把钱投到郁金香上。最夸张的时候，有人用一朵郁金香换了一辆新马车，外加全套挽具和两批灰马。
On December 5th, Guangnet reported in China’s Voice, The Night Summit of News, that the 17th-century Dutch tulip fever, when tulips spread from Turkey to Western Europe, began to prevail in the Netherlands. Many people were said to have sold their houses, sold their land, and dropped their money on tulips because of rising prices.
后来，郁金香泡沫破裂，很多人因此蒙受了巨大的损失，也由此引发了历史上第一次金融危机。有人将今天的比特币，比作当年的郁金香，这似乎是在断言，这种虚拟货币将注定成为泡沫。最新发表这番言论的，是前美联储主席格林斯潘：
Later, the tulip bubble burst, causing huge losses for many, and thus triggered the first financial crisis in history. Some people compared today’s bitcoin to the year’s tulips, which seemed to assert that this virtual currency was destined to become a bubble.
最新发表这番言论的，是前美联储主席格林斯潘。格林斯潘说"如果你问我比特币是不是泡沫，没错，它就是泡沫。"不过正是这个"泡沫"在今年却上演了最为疯狂的逆袭。在我国最大的比特币交易平台"比特币中国"网站上，12月5号比特币交易价格7005元，而在三天前，这个数字还是6119元，一个月前只有1277块，而年初的时候只有几百元了。
The most recent statement was made by former US Federal Reserve Chairman Greenspan. Greenspan said, "If you ask me if bitcoin is a bubble, yes, it is a bubble. " But it is this "foam" that turned out to be the craziest counterattack this year.
为什么会有这种过山车般的汇率浮动？
Why is there such a mountain-car-like rate of exchange floating?
中本聪，传说中比特币的发明人，虚拟货币背后的神秘人物，根据网络账户身份登记显示，他37岁，男性，生活在日本。中本聪虽从未现身，他的成果却实实在在。2008年，他提出比特币概念，一枚比特币实际是一个64位的数字符号，它基于一套密码编码，通过复杂算法产生，无论在地球上的哪个地方，只要用电脑下载并运行相关软件完成复杂计算，人人都可以参与比特币的制造，这个过程也被称为挖矿。不过，根据中本聪的设计，全球比特币的最终总量是二千一百万个。虽然看不见也摸不着，但比特币可以存放在自己的电子钱包中，也可以在专门的网络交易平台上买卖，兑换成现实货币，还可以直接用于消费。
In 2008, he put forward the concept of Bitcoin, which is actually a 64-digit digital symbol, based on a code code code that is derived from complex algorithms where, wherever on Earth, everyone can participate in the manufacture of Bitcoin as long as they download and run the software in question to make complex calculations, a process also known as mining. However, according to the design of the medium-bone, the final amount of Bitcoins is 21 million. Although it is invisible and untraceable, Bitcoins can be stored in their electronic wallets, sold on a dedicated web trading platform, converted into real currency, and used directly for consumption.
正是这样一种从天上掉下来的、没有中央银行的虚拟货币发行体系，造成了比特币高高低低的汇率浮动。这也是格林斯潘认为它终将成为"泡沫"的原因。
It is this virtual currency distribution system, which falls out of the sky without a central bank, that causes bitcoin’s high and low exchange rate to float. That is why Greenspan thinks it will eventually become a bubble.
格林斯潘：要做可以兑换的货币，就必须有什么东西做支持。实行金本位的时候，它有内在价值的，人们是愿意用金子或者银来交换自己的商品和服务的，但问题是我实在不知道比特币的支持来自哪里。
不过，市场似乎不管这些。根据统计，目前大约有1200万个比特币在流通中。它已经从虚拟世界蔓延到了实体店。光11月份，全世界支持比特币支付的实体商店就足足增加了81%。全球大概有1400家实体商户加入比特币支付大军，欧洲600家,，美国400家，中国虽然不多，也有快20家。北京一家咖啡店店员告诉我们，比特币在实体店是如何使用的。 According to statistics, there are currently about 12 million bitcoins in circulation. It has spread from the virtual world to real shops. In November alone, real stores that support Bitcoin’s payments increased by 81%. 记者：您这家店是支持比特币支付的吗？ Reporter
店员：是支持，没错。 记者：比如我身上有一个比特币然后我怎么在您那花啊？ Reporter: I have a bitcoin on me and how am I supposed to spend it on you? 店员：您在手机上下一个钱包，比特币的钱包，然后来我们这之后通过扫二维码通过网站它会自动给你汇帐。 记者：现在用比特币支付的人多吗？ 店员：不怎么多。 记者：咱们现在有1000块钱的这种支付吗？ Reporter: Do we have this payment of $1,000 now? 店员：没有，前段时间比较多，这段时间没有了。 对于比特币已经在国内的一些地方可以实体支付的情况，今天下午，中国人民银行首次就比特币发表看法，表示比特币是一种特定的虚拟商品，不具有与货币同等的法律地位，不能且不应，作为货币在市场上流通使用。 For the first time this afternoon, the People's Bank of China commented on Bitcoin as a specific virtual commodity that does not have the same legal status as money and cannot and should not be used as a currency in the market. 央行表示，已经和工信部、银监会、证监会和保监会发布了防范比特币风险的通知，要求各金融机构和支付机构不得开展与比特币相关的业务，不得以比特币为产品或服务定价，并要求提供比特币登记、交易等服务的互联网站应当在电信管理机构备案。并要求加强公众教育。中国人民银行副行长易纲此前在接受我们记者采访时表示，老百姓在玩比特币的时候，一定要注意风险。 The Central Bank has stated that it has issued a notice with the Ministry of Trade and Communications, the Banking Supervisory Board, the Securities Supervisory Board and the Insurance Supervisory Board to protect against the risks of Bitcoin, requiring financial institutions and payment agencies to refrain from doing business related to bitcoin, from pricing bitcoin for products or services, and that Internet stations providing services such as Bitcoin’s registration, transactions, etc. should file with telecommunications authorities. It has also requested that public education be strengthened. 易纲：央行不会承认比特币的合法性，比特币是一个算法，这种算法可以说相当有特点，至于说网民、粉丝交易比特币，我觉得应当注意风险，因为比特币上边是封顶的。所以现在唯一就是说，你要花钱去买，比特币的价格是过山车一样，所以我觉得它不是一个大众、老百姓能够参与的游戏。 在央行等五部委发出相关通知之后，记者在下午4点50分再次查询发现，比特币交易价格已经从7005元，大跌到5090元。 Following a circular issued by the Central Bank and five other ministries, at 4:50 p.m., journalists again inquired about the price of the Bitcoin transaction, which had fallen from $705, to $5090.
