腾飞中的贝尔集团，引领数字资产成为下一个风口
2017年，最大的风口是共享经济，ofo、摩拜用不到两年的时间就占领了共享单车90%以上的市场，使得后入者在夹缝中求生存。当人们纷纷寻找下一个风口在哪里时，贝尔集团早已在悄悄布局数字资产——K资产。
据了解，K资产是一种虚拟的可以全球通用的 P2P 形式的数字资产。与大多数资产不同，K资产不依靠特定的货币机构发行，它依据特定算法，通过大量的计算产生，K资产使用整个 P2P 网络中众多节点构成的分布式数据库来确认并记录所有的交易行为，并使用密码学的设计来确保货币流通各个环节安全性。
作为一个可见的、有巨大价值的数字领域，不仅是商业公司，就连各国央行也纷纷介入此领域。2016年初，央行明确了发行数字货币的战略目标，并启动建立了央行数字货币研究所。在2017年11月，央行数字货币研究所所长表示，未来将构建高效、便捷、安全的数字货币生态系统。可见数字货币的发展将是可期待的，未来的潜力不可估量。不仅如此，乌拉圭、欧洲央行也纷纷介入数字资产发展领域，并将定性为未来重点发展和探究的领域。
贝尔集团总部位于美国加州的“硅谷”，帕罗奥图。公司成立之初，主要在“互联网”和“IT”技术方面探索研究。随着不断的发展，贝尔集团已发展成集互联网娱乐、互联网金融、旅游地产的综合性商业帝国。当然，贝尔集团最令投资者青睐的还是所拥有的一整套生态系统。这个生态系统集娱乐、地产金融和零售业于一体。再利用贝尔集团成熟的区块链技术实现K资产在这个生态系统里进行自由的消费和支持。值得一提的是，贝尔集团拥有的Funsworld，它是一款使用非常便捷的APP，成为了投资爱好者们操作K资产交易的主要移动平台。目前，Funsworld已经在世界范围内得到了应用。
毫无疑问，数字经济正改变着人们的生活。贝尔集团的K资产作为这个行业的领军者，已经走在世界的前列，K资产势必成为下一个人人使用是数字资产。马云曾说，在风口上，猪都能起飞。眼下，新的风口已经来临，抓住机遇等于抓住了未来。

腾飞中的贝尔集团，引领数字资产成为下一个风口
2017年，最大的风口是共享经济，ofo、摩拜用不到两年的时间就占领了共享单车90%以上的市场，使得后入者在夹缝中求生存。当人们纷纷寻找下一个风口在哪里时，贝尔集团早已在悄悄布局数字资产——K资产。据了解，K资产是一种虚拟的可以全球通用的 P2P 形式的数字资产。与大多数资产不同，K资产不依靠特定的货币机构发行，它依据特定算法，通过大量的计算产生，K资产使用整个 P2P 网络中众多节点构成的分布式数据库来确认并记录所有的交易行为，并使用密码学的设计来确保货币流通各个环节安全性。作为一个可见的、有巨大价值的数字领域，不仅是商业公司，就连各国央行也纷纷介入此领域。2016年初，央行明确了发行数字货币的战略目标，并启动建立了央行数字货币研究所。在2017年11月，央行数字货币研究所所长表示，未来将构建高效、便捷、安全的数字货币生态系统。可见数字货币的发展将是可期待的，未来的潜力不可估量。不仅如此，乌拉圭、欧洲央行也纷纷介入数字资产发展领域，并将定性为未来重点发展和探究的领域。贝尔集团总部位于美国加州的“硅谷”，帕罗奥图。公司成立之初，主要在“互联网”和“IT”技术方面探索研究。随着不断的发展，贝尔集团已发展成集互联网娱乐、互联网金融、旅游地产的综合性商业帝国。当然，贝尔集团最令投资者青睐的还是所拥有的一整套生态系统。这个生态系统集娱乐、地产金融和零售业于一体。再利用贝尔集团成熟的区块链技术实现K资产在这个生态系统里进行自由的消费和支持。值得一提的是，贝尔集团拥有的Funsworld，它是一款使用非常便捷的APP，成为了投资爱好者们操作K资产交易的主要移动平台。目前，Funsworld已经在世界范围内得到了应用。毫无疑问，数字经济正改变着人们的生活。贝尔集团的K资产作为这个行业的领军者，已经走在世界的前列，K资产势必成为下一个人人使用是数字资产。马云曾说，在风口上，猪都能起飞。眼下，新的风口已经来临，抓住机遇等于抓住了未来。funsworld 一款悄然改变生活的APP
随着经济的发展，移动互联网市场规模持续增长，移动购物的比例逐年走高。2017年移动互联网产业迎来飞跃发展，市场规模已经突破万亿大关，并且移动购物在整个移动互联网结构中的比例持续攀升，预计在2年之后，移动购物将占据移动互联网的72.7%左右，成为移动互联网市场增长真正的动力引擎。于是我们发现一个有意思的现象：人们使用纸币的频率在不断下降，只需要一个手机就能完成所有的支付，去纸币化已是大势所趋。
& & Funsworld作为一款使用虚拟K资产的app，集购物、挖矿、交易、游戏、K付、社交于一体，既能随时随地查看K资产的收益情况，又能满足所有日常的生活需求，Funsworld极有可能成为未来十年改变人们生活方式的APP。&
& & Funsworld app所属的公司为贝尔集团，其成立于2012年12月，是一家总部位于硅谷的跨国公司，专注于互联网娱乐游戏、互联网金融、旅游产业等。据麦肯锡发布的数据显示，自2012年12月贝尔成立至今，服务过的用户遍布全球各地。公司获得俄罗斯DST战略投资，也加快了其全球化的战略布局。Funsworld的创新在于将区块链与生活应用以及金融巧妙结合起来，既能享受购物的乐趣，又能看到自己K资产源源不断的收益。
& & 此外，Funsworld的未来战略规划已十分明确：构建集娱乐、地产、跨境电商、金融，零售业于一体的健康生态大系统，打造好Funsworld、K资产，为区块链行业的发展贡献一份力量，成为新一代区块链金融领域的领导者。
& & 相信在不久的将来，人人都乐于使用Funsworld，用Funsworld方便生活，丰富世界。
