1. Energy Blockchain Research | Why do we need blockchain technology

When talking about blockchain technology with outsiders, they will always mention this issue: Why do we need blockchain? If you don’t answer it properly, even those who are interested may not want to know more, and it will make them think that blockchain does not bring anything new to the world.

In fact, blockchain technology has begun to get on the right track, and many industries have begun to use blockchain technology. Blockchain doesn’t always solve old problems in new ways. Compared with traditional methods, blockchain technology is safer, more cost-effective, and more transparent. This article will give answers to the above questions.

As we all know, the 21st century has brought about issues such as data breaches, misuse of personal information, and data insecurity. Blockchain combined with other technologies and services can help prevent some major information leaks and breaches because data is no longer stored in one place. If we want to truly understand how blockchain technology can help ordinary users, first, we must understand the types of services and platforms they use. For example:

Some blockchain companies are trying to replace all the products in the picture above. These attempted products are either decentralized or replaced by decentralized products. Many companies have shown time and time again that they don’t trust data and that users should get more out of it by selling their data to advertising companies.

The 2017 ICO boom swept the blockchain market, with hundreds of companies succeeding or failing seemingly overnight. But there are also benefits to this special investing period: Investors have learned how to spot innovative, high-quality companies. Some companies founded through ICOs still exist, while others raised funds during this period. The idea common to most companies is this: they allow users to control their data without interference or hosting. For example:

But is anyone really using these alternatives? The answer is yes, and it's growing well. Of course, some projects fail miserably and drag down the industry. After the ICO boom in 2017, if you pay a little attention, you will find that not all of these companies are successful. However, success often comes with failure.

Even some early projects that seemed very successful have gradually lost their former glory, such as CryptoKitties. But you can learn how to get better from failure. The entire industry, users, developers and investors learned a lesson in a previously oversaturated market: it learned how to get better. Users learned how to better allocate their time among many new projects; investors learned which projects to invest in; developers learned what works and what doesn’t; and the industry learned how much new development is sustainable of.

Good ideas are no longer enough. In addition, a job is neededProducts, dedicated user groups and concepts. This is why Brave, Antube, and Alfa are some of the most forward-thinking projects on the market today—they answer the big question of why we need blockchain.

Data is important. When surfing the Internet, most Internet users provide data. This data is collected, classified, and monetized by large corporations. From this they learn who the user is and why they are buying. How to get users to buy is the key to their success. Alfa, Brave, and Antube are three unique companies trying to give users more control over their data.

Brave aims to transform the browsing experience. Previously, most people installed ad-blocking software on their browsers, but Brave is about to change that. Instead, the ad becomes an interactive experience that captures the user's attention in a short period of time, and all parties benefit.

Users should have more control over their data, but relying solely on blockchain and tokens will not solve the problem. A new blockchain with built-in economics should be developed.

Back to the original question: Why do we need blockchain?

It’s all about data. In the past, we relied on organizations to save data, but now blockchain provides users with keys and immutable records.

There are many ways to track the progress of a company or institution, but the easiest way is often to go straight to the source. Twitter will update in real time (Brave, Alfa, Antube), and checking forums such as Reddit, Bitcointalk, and articles on Hacker Noon can also provide valuable information. Whichever way you choose to update, just remember this: we want “our” data to belong to “us” — that’s why we need blockchain.

2. Why is blockchain so important

As a distributed ledger structure, blockchain technology has the public characteristics of being irreversible and non-tamperable. It is not only used in the financial field, but also in supply chain management, intelligent manufacturing, culture and entertainment, etc. Financial services, medical health, IP copyright, education, Internet of Things, sharing economy, communications, social management, charity, social employment, and e-government can all be widely used.
At present, domestic Internet and IT are involved in the blockchain industry, and have begun to develop or launch a series of solutions for basic application cases. In the current development trend, blockchain technology is integrated into smart life, Internet of Things and other fields, integrating massive physical business application scenarios, and implementing blockchain + real-lifePhysical industry projects to realize the physical transformation and upgrading of physical industries are one of the most representative blockchain application directions.

3. What is the core significance of blockchain technology?

Many relationships between people are established based on trust, such as friendships, partnerships, and transactions. Relationships etc.
Take trading activities as an example. In the past, two parties that did not trust each other would usually choose an intermediary as a guarantee to complete a transaction. In the era of mobile Internet, we choose Taobao for shopping because Alipay provides us with intermediary guarantees. We choose Didi to take taxis because Didi provides us with information matching.
But these middlemen or intermediaries are centralized and have their own interests. Sometimes they are not so reliable and not so trustworthy. Theoretically, centralized accounting like Alipay may be tampered with (impossible in reality). Didi's accidents happened one after another, partly because they only think about problems from their own standpoint.
What the blockchain does is a machine of trust. It replaces the role of a trust intermediary with code. Through the consensus mechanism and distributed accounting, it ensures the fairness and justice of the entire system and provides a trustless system. trust.
For example, in the future, people can abandon the intermediate platform and realize point-to-point docking and free transactions through the blockchain. You don’t need to go through an intermediary when shopping, and you don’t need to go through Didi when taking a taxi. In this way, “no middlemen make the difference” is truly realized, and the cost is greatly reduced.

4. What is the impact and significance of blockchain technology on society

On the morning of November 8, 2019, the 2019 Trusted Blockchain Summit opened in Beijing. Wang Xinzhe, chief economist of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and Shang Bing, chairman of the Internet Society of China, attended the opening ceremony of the summit and delivered speeches.

Wang Xinzhe pointed out that a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation characterized by accelerated innovation and integration of information technology is booming. Blockchain technology is important for promoting high-quality economic development, improving national governance systems and The modernization level of governance capabilities is of great significance.

(4) Why should we promote the blockchain? Extended reading:

Wang Xinzhe emphasized that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology attaches great importance to the development of the blockchain technology industry By creating a good development environment, guiding local governments to accelerate the pace of exploration, supporting breakthroughs in key core technologies, promoting the implementation of industry applications, and building a complete standard system, we support the development of the blockchain technology industry and consolidate the development foundation of China's blockchain field. .

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will accelerate the innovative development of blockchain technology industry, vigorously promote the deep integration of blockchain and economy and society, and give full play to the role of blockchain technology in driving technological breakthroughs, driving economic development, and promoting It plays a strategic role in improving people's livelihood and promoting social progress, and makes positive contributions to the realization of the "Two Centenary Goals" and the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

5. NearWhy has blockchain technology been vigorously promoted in recent years

On March 29, 2021, Chengdu released the "Chengdu City's 14th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development and the Outline of Long-term Goals for 2035" ", clearly stated: It is necessary to strengthen the application of information technology such as blockchain technology and industrial Internet, build functional platforms such as blockchain industry innovation centers, promote the construction of blockchain intellectual property pledge financing service platforms, and promote artificial intelligence, big data, Basic research breakthroughs and innovative application transformations in key areas such as blockchain, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things.

On December 22, 2020, Qingdao issued a document stating: Qingdao Chain Bay will be a national-level "blockchain +" industrial technology innovation highland, application demonstration highland, industrial development highland, and innovative talent highland. The mission is to focus on building new infrastructure public service facilities for the Lianwan Digital Intelligence Cloud Chain, and strive to promote the application of blockchain technology in the fields of digital industry finance, digital new consumption, and digital free trade comprehensive services.

With the strong support of the national and local governments, blockchain has entered a new stage of accelerated development. In the future, more funds, blockchain-related talents, and technology companies will quickly gather in this industry, and blockchain technology will become an important engine for the development of the digital economy.

6. What disruptions does blockchain bring and why can it become a national strategy?

The disruptive characteristics of blockchain lie in the following four aspects: 1. Transparency. The data records of the blockchain system are transparent to the entire network nodes, and the update operations of the data records are also transparent to the entire network nodes. This is the basis for the trust of the blockchain system. Since the blockchain system uses open source programs, open rules and high participation, blockchain data records and operating rules can be reviewed and traced by nodes throughout the network, with high transparency.
2. Openness. The blockchain system is open. Except for the private information of the parties directly related to the data, which is always encrypted, the blockchain data is open to everyone (except for blockchain systems with special permission requirements). Anyone or participating nodes can query blockchain data records or develop related applications through public interfaces, so the entire system information is highly transparent.
3. Information cannot be tampered with. Once the information of the blockchain system is verified and added to the blockchain, it will be permanently stored and cannot be changed (except for systems such as private blockchains with special change requirements). Unless more than 51% of the nodes in the system can be controlled at the same time, modifications to the database on a single node are invalid, so the data stability and reliability of the blockchain are extremely high
4. Decentralization. Decentralization is the most basic feature of blockchain, which means that blockchain no longer relies on central processing nodes and realizes distributed recording, storage and updating of data. In a traditional centralized network, attacking a central node can destroy the entire system. However, in a decentralized blockchain network, attacking a single node cannot control or destroy the entire network or more than 5% of the nodes in the network. Just gain controlJust the beginning. 2019 is the first year of commercial application of blockchain technology, and favorable policy incentives will make the development of blockchain technology more stable.
As the application of blockchain technology gradually penetrates into many fields such as digital finance and the Internet, everyone has a clearer understanding of the value of blockchain.
Blockchain has formed a global competition situation. All countries are seizing development opportunities, and China cannot lag behind; therefore, it is understandable that blockchain has become a national strategy.

7. How important is blockchain

With its exquisite design concepts and thinking, blockchain can promote the reconstruction of rule systems in economic and social related fields and change the relationship between people and The collaborative relationship and benefit distribution mechanism between people and organizations, organizations and organizations; at the same time, blockchain technology can effectively solve the "double spend problem", that is, to prevent the same digital asset from being reused due to improper operations.

This provides a solution to the problem of digital asset rights confirmation and transaction circulation, which can break through the problems such as digital asset rights confirmation and double spending that restrict digital development, and build Forming new production relations that adapt to the development of the digital economy has become the most important value of blockchain technology.

01 Reduce transaction intermediate links and promote cost reduction and efficiency improvement

There are a large number of rent-seeking intermediary organizations in various fields of economic and social life. Some of these organizations do not create real value, but only seek profits through the monopoly of business information or data. , artificially increasing unnecessary transaction links and costs.

Through the innovative application of blockchain, a self-organizing mechanism for economic behavior based on technology can be built to replace the business role of some intermediaries, which can greatly improve data acquisition. , consensus formation, accounting and reconciliation, and value transfer efficiency, further open up the upstream and downstream industrial chains, significantly reduce unnecessary intermediary organizations and intermediate links, improve the efficiency of effective docking of supply and demand in various industries, reduce the burden on the public and commercial entities, and promote The real economy reduces costs and increases efficiency.

02 Help confirm the rights of digital assets and stimulate innovation vitality

In the era of digital economy , data resources are becoming more and more important. In 2019, my country has officially regarded data as one of the seven production factors as important as labor, capital, land, knowledge, technology, and management, and has promoted the establishment of a data factor market system.

However, due to the difficulty in confirming data rights, tracing back, and dividing interests, data cannot yet achieve efficient market-oriented allocation and orderly circulation, seriously restricting the development of the digital economy. develop.

Distributed, non-tamperable, traceable and transparent based on blockchain With features such as security, multi-party maintenance, and cross-validation, data ownership can be effectively defined, data circulation can be tracked and supervised, and data revenue can be reasonably shared, removing obstacles to the efficient market-oriented allocation of data production factors and other digital assets, and is expected to reverse the The current trend of increasing centralization of data ownership, use and benefit distribution is pushing the entire society and digital economy to develop in a more trustworthy, shared, and balanced direction, further unleashing the innovation vitality of the digital economy.

03 Shortening the distance of trust and expanding the space for collaboration

Modern human lifestyle The changes and progress are all directly related to the development of science and technology. Scientific and technological revolutions always dialectically expand the territory of human activities while shortening the distance between them. Every major technological change is always accompanied by the collapse of "distance" in some sense, thus bringing convenience to people.

For example, the invention of transportation has expanded the radius of human activities and shortened the geographical distance between people; the invention of communication tools has expanded the radius of human "conversation" The physical distance has been shortened; the invention of the Internet has expanded the radius of human access to information and shortened the distance of information; the invention of artificial intelligence has expanded the radius of cognition and shortened the distance of cognition of the world.

Blockchain shortens the distance of trust

Today, blockchain has brought us a new radius expansion. Blockchain can form a trust mechanism based on cryptographic algorithms without relying on authoritative centers and market environments, allowing strangers who are thousands of miles apart, have never met or even never met to establish a trust relationship, expanding the radius of human trust, thus making strangers Cooperation becomes possible.

Especially in some regions and fields with imperfect market mechanisms and lack of credit systems, the value of blockchain technology is even more precious. Blockchain technology enables strangers to establish production relationships based on technical constraints, making it possible to carry out business cooperation in unfamiliar environments, and is expected to inspire a series of new business models.

04 Driving the Internet Revolution and Accelerating Value Delivery

The first 20 years of the 21st century , human society has experienced a comprehensive baptism and reconstruction of the Internet. "Internet +" has brought about earth-shaking changes in related industries and fields, and people's lives haveLife has become more convenient because of the Internet, economic activities have become more active because of the Internet, and society has become more fair and open because of the Internet.

However, the Internet mainly solves the problem of dissemination of information. It is difficult to judge the authenticity of information content, and there are still many constraints and obstacles to the transfer of digital assets. While the Internet brings great convenience, it is also filled with more and more false information, and has even become a hotbed for various new types of fraud. While people are becoming more and more dependent on the Internet, they are also increasingly wary of the Internet.

Based on blockchain technology, the next generation of reliable technology based on technical constraints can be built. Trusting the Internet and solving the trust problem of strangers on the traditional Internet will allow digital assets to circulate efficiently on the Internet. Based on blockchain technology, digital assets and intellectual property rights on the Internet can be effectively protected. Asset transactions between people will be as convenient as sending emails. People will put down their guard against the highly dependent Internet because of the innovation of blockchain technology. The Internet will give birth to more valuable applications.

05 Strengthen the constraints of the integrity system and purify the market environment

Blockchain is a Trust the machine. By promoting the deep integration of blockchain and the real economy, a market environment that is convenient, efficient, fair, competitive, stable and transparent can be created. The technical characteristics of blockchain technology that cannot be tampered with and are traceable can play a very important role in the innovation of trust mechanisms in regions and fields with imperfect market mechanisms and incomplete credit systems.

Under the traditional model, market supervision requires a heavy workload and is difficult to implement. Due to insufficient administrative law enforcement resources and regulatory means, it is widely hated by the public. The phenomena of laobao, counterfeit products and fraudulent behaviors are repeated and difficult to eradicate.

Blockchain technology can be formed without the need for intermediaries and laws and regulations. The conditional self-organization and self-supervision mechanism, and the non-tampering, non-repudiation, and non-manipulability of the distributed ledger actually play a role in technical supervision of various economic behaviors.

This will help solve problems such as difficulty in loan financing for small and medium-sized enterprises and difficulty in bank risk control; by recording the entire commodity production and transaction circulation process, it can significantly reduce the risk of counterfeit, shoddy, and shoddy goods. Various market frauds such as passing off substandard products to solve problems such as difficulty in market supervision.

8. How to view the country’s accelerated promotion of blockchain technology

1) First of all, the technical value of blockchain is clarified And positioning, as I said at the beginning, the positioning of blockchain should be regarded as a core technology and an important breakthrough for independent innovation.
2) Blockchain, the Internet, and artificial intelligence must be regarded as technologies of the same level, and blockchain must officially enter the category of hard technology development.
3) It points out the development and application direction of our blockchain, including the speech mentioned in this speech that blockchain technology has extended to digital finance, Internet of Things, intelligent manufacturing, supply chain management, digital asset transactions, etc. In terms of application, some regulatory or legal issues will inevitably arise during the application process. What instructions were given in this speech? He mentioned that network governance according to law should be implemented into the management of blockchain and promote the safe and orderly development of blockchain.
4) Regarding the more important points of application and development, it is mentioned that blockchain can move from reality to reality, empower entities, improve people's livelihood, gain industrial advantages, and better serve the development of the entire industrial economy. In fact, through the study of blockchain technology, from one aspect or the signal released, it expresses the attitude towards innovation and leading of blockchain. I hope that in the development of blockchain, we can first have our own core technology, and we must In today's fierce international competition, we are in a leading position.
5) It is to enhance market confidence in the entire blockchain industry, especially in the application and development of blockchain technology. This has greatly improved market confidence, which is bound to attract more people in the next period of time. More, including the capital market and more talents and research applications will enter this field. More capital, more manpower, and more other social-related aspects including the rule of law and legislation, and multi-faceted attention, will better promote the application and implementation of the entire blockchain technology. This is my opinion on the area. Four points or summary of blockchain technology learning.
If you have been paying attention to blockchain for a long time, in fact, from the national level, including the "13th Five-Year Plan", blockchain technology has been included in the "13th Five-Year Plan" as an important link with artificial intelligence, Big data and cloud computing are being developed as parallel technologies, including the introduction in the second half of 2018, when the Cyberspace Administration of China issued a filing for blockchain application services, which actually affects the development of the entire blockchain from all aspects. Act as a positive guide or protector.
Of course, when it comes to blockchain, everyone may have said in their previous understanding that blockchain will always think of currency speculation and the like. Digital currency is actually only a relatively narrow area of ​​​​the blockchain field. , we now include support from the mainstream of modern society or the national level, more support for the application of blockchain technology in real industries, empowering the development of real industrial economies
The core advantage of blockchain technology is decentralization ization, which can be achieved without the need for nodes by using data encryption, timestamps, distributed consensus and economic incentives.Point-to-point transactions, coordination and collaboration based on decentralized credit are realized in a mutually trusting distributed system, thus providing solutions to the problems of high cost, low efficiency and insecure data storage common in centralized institutions.
The application fields of blockchain include digital currency, certificates, finance, anti-counterfeiting and traceability, privacy protection, supply chain, entertainment, etc. With the popularity of blockchain and Bitcoin, many related top domain names have been registered. , which has had a relatively large impact on the domain name industry.

9.) Combined with material 1, use the knowledge of economic life to analyze the significance of promoting the deep integration of blockchain and real economy. (8

Blockchain technology is a new development in Internet technology and modern information technology. It plays an important role in China’s real economy and supply-side structural reform. Promoting the research and development and application of blockchain technology will have a profound impact on the real economy. Integration to create advanced manufacturing. It can achieve high-quality development of our country's economy and is an important driving force for building a modern economic system.
