摘　　要：近年来,区块链技术的高速发展为虚拟货币带来了许多新的形式。然而,这些新型的虚拟货币在现有文献中尚未受到充分的关注。此外,现有文献中还存在着虚拟货币的界定混乱以及缺少对虚拟货币的演变过程进行分析等问题。为此,本文提出了一个虚拟货币的分类框架,对现有的虚拟货币形式进行了统一地梳理,并揭示了迄今为止虚拟货币所发生的从专用化、到去中心化、再到去中介化的演变过程。本文的分析对于理解虚拟货币的演变过程,尤其是当前新兴的虚拟货币形式——通证的产生原因和内在机理具有一定的借鉴意义。The rapid development of blockchain technology has given birth to many new forms of virtual currency in recent years.However,these new virtual currencies haven’t received sufficient attention in extant literature.Furthermore,there are some other deficiencies in the existing literature,such as confusion in the definition of virtual currency and lack of analysis on the evolution process of virtual currency.In order to tackle these problems,this paper proposes an analytical framework of virtual currency to uniformly comb the existing forms of virtual currency,and to reveal the evolution process of virtual currency from specialization to decentralization and then to disintermediary so far.The analysis of this paper has certain reference significance for understanding the evolution process of virtual currency,especially for the causes and inherent mechanism of the emerging form of virtual currency namely token.
