0 1, Bitcoin is more secure. This actually happened in Foxconn's overseas factory. Hackers invade their systems, steal their unencrypted files, and then the hackers lock these files with their own passwords.
The contents of these files are more important to Foxconn, and then Foxconn is required to exchange 1.804 bitcoins for password keys. According to the current market value, 1804 bitcoins are about $35 million. If you pay attention to this news, you may find that it is bitcoin that hackers are blackmailing now, not dollars, euros and RMB.
What they value is the security of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not real currency, but virtual currency. Bitcoin transactions are anonymous, and it is generally difficult for someone to find out who the two parties are.
As hackers, their actions are illegal and they need security. In addition to anonymity, don't forget that they are hackers, the Internet is their home, and Bitcoin is not issued by monetary institutions, which means that no one can find out the source and destination of Bitcoin.
02. Other characteristics of Bitcoin. In addition to security, Bitcoin has other features that attract this hacker. If you are lucky enough to get some bitcoin and haven't traded yet, then I can tell you that you have made a fortune.
As a virtual currency, Bitcoin has a relatively large room for growth. Last time, some people said that the bitcoin market would be hit because many big names were selling. In fact, I think bitcoin still has some room for growth.
And don't forget that Bitcoin is in global circulation, and many currencies are restrictive. For hackers, the currency in global circulation is what they yearn for, so before Bitcoin, they wanted dollars.
Moreover, Bitcoin is relatively easy to save, just save it in your own virtual account. Another advantage of bitcoin is that there is no counterfeit money.
