In recent days, a new word has appeared on Weibo's hot search list, called "blockchain aunt": It is said that at the recent World Blockchain Summit, which was called the carnival of ten thousand people, "Chinese aunt" once again became the most eye-catching focus of the audience. The style of the summit is strange. It is obviously a high-tech investment conference, but it is the star aunts who are on fire, and there are even quiz games.
Then there was a popular saying in the circle of friends: G.E.M. sang his famous song "Bubble" as a guest at the World Blockchain Conference, and was shocked by netizens as "the theme song of blockchain". With the lyrics "bubbles in the sun are colored; Just like being cheated, I am very happy ",which makes people deeply moved and can't help but smile." After verification, I know that G.E.M. sang Like You, not Bubble. So someone explained that "bubble" represents the voice of leek, and "like you" represents the confession of leek knife.
As a result, this "Chinese aunt" was once again "hacked" from the media and this blockchain performance. Tracing back to the source, the large history of "Chinese aunt" has to be counted from 20 13. They surprised Wall Street and defeated the financial elite. From real estate speculation to stock speculation, from futures speculation to foreign exchange speculation, they are always at the forefront. According to this original sin, many people think that this group, which should have danced square dance at home, has confused the basic laws of the free market with the attitude of "nouveau riche cluster". However, on the other hand, isn't it human nature to get rich overnight and make a fortune? Besides, greed is not a crime, but also the freedom of aunts to spend money.
However, if we look at it rationally, I am afraid there are two basic problems behind this "Chinese aunt" who is mixed with public opinion: First, the investment habit that is divorced from reality and goes to nothingness. Young people don't study "core technology", don't work hard on ballpoint pens and computer chips, and are building houses and buying patents. What are the reasons for accusing the speculative aunt? Under the impetuousness of society, well-intentioned aunts are estimated to be the most authentic endorsements of a certain preference of this society in economic development. What makes money, what stocks, I hate myself for not getting Qian Shengqian and interest every minute. Who can say that some mainstream industries don't have this kind of quick success and instant benefit?
Second, the unhealthy investment market. By the end of 20 17, the elderly population over 60 years old in China exceeded 240 million, accounting for 17.3% of the total population. The Outline of Healthy China 2030 shows that in 20 15, the average life expectancy in China will reach 76.34 years, 77.3 years in 2020 and 79.0 years in 2030. China is still on the road of rapid aging, and there are more and more rich old people. Financial supervision has been strengthened, P2P and other projects can't be bought, and the stock market is not easy to speculate. It is only a matter of time before funds are invested in these illusory new areas of blockchain. If you don't buy health care products or play blockchain, is there a better way to export a lot of idle funds?
Don't demonize "Chinese aunts", they are just the shadows of this era. Playing blockchain is stupid, which is better than Ponzi scheme or pyramid scheme crime. And what we have to reflect on is: what can you do if you let them take money after teasing?
