。

近日，人民日报海外版发表了一篇关于区块链的文章，介绍了这一新兴技术在当下的发展和应用情况。本文将从三个关键词：去中心化、智能合约、技术安全性，来深入讨论区块链技术的拓展。

去中心化是区块链技术的核心特性。它指的是把数据存储和处理的权力从中心机构转移到网络中的各个节点，使得数据的存储和处理更加分散和安全。去中心化使得数据的交易变得更加安全，从而更有利于保护用户的隐私。同时，去中心化也使得数据的存储和处理更加高效，因为不需要中心机构的参与。

智能合约是区块链技术的另一个重要特性。智能合约是一种特殊的计算机程序，可以在区块链上执行，用于自动执行合同或其他交易。智能合约可以让交易更加安全和可靠，因为它可以检查交易双方的身份，确保交易的完整性和有效性。此外，智能合约还可以提高交易的效率，因为它可以自动执行交易，不需要人工干预。

技术安全性是区块链技术的另一个重要特性。它指的是区块链技术的安全性，包括数据的安全性、智能合约的安全性以及其他相关技术的安全性。区块链技术的安全性可以通过加密技术、共识机制等来保证，这些技术可以有效地防止数据的篡改和盗用。此外，区块链技术还可以使用智能合约来确保交易的安全性，从而保护用户的隐私。

从以上三个关键词可以看出，区块链技术具有去中心化、智能合约和技术安全性等优点，可以有效地提高数据的安全性、保护用户的隐私以及提高交易的效率。因此，区块链技术有望在未来发挥重要作用，为社会发展做出贡献。

『一』How are the blocks in the blockchain connected?

Experts said that the blockchain can be understood in layman’s terms as a distributed public ledger. This ledger consists of blocks connected into a chain. In traditional accounting systems, accounting rights are in the hands of the central server.

On the "ledger" of the blockchain, every point in the chain can record information on it, forming a point-to-point accounting system. Therefore, blockchain technology is considered a decentralized technology.

For example, in a village of 100 people, Zhang San bought a cow from Li Si and paid him 10,000 yuan. In the past, he had to rely on the middleman Zhao Liu to transfer his 10,000 yuan to Li Si.

With the blockchain system, Zhang San can directly record his 10,000 yuan into Li Si’s account book, and at the same time, the transaction information will be transmitted to the whole village, that is, the entire blockchain system. Make the information visible to 98 other people. The system records the entire transaction process, which has the advantage of traceability and prevents problems such as the loss of Zhao Liu's account book or Li Si's refusal to acknowledge the account.

(1) People’s Daily published extended reading on blockchain

In 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto first proposed the concept of blockchain. In the years that followed, blockchain became a core component of the electronic currency Bitcoin: serving as the public ledger of all transactions. By leveraging peer-to-peer networks and distributed timestamp servers, blockchain databases can be managed autonomously.

The blockchain invented for Bitcoin made it the first digital currency to solve the problem of repeated consumption. Bitcoin's design has become a source of inspiration for other applications.

『二』The People’s Daily publishes the latest matters that the people should be vigilant about. What exactly is this matter?

The People’s Daily publishes the latest matters that the people should be vigilant about. What exactly is this matter?

People’s Daily: Blockchain technology is currently not very mature, so be wary of concept hype, and supervision should be more proactive in getting involved.

Fang Xingdong said that he personally is not optimistic about the excitement of ICO. ICO is a game that completely subverts social order and world order. Unless everyone wants the world to really return to anarchy, and one person can issue currency, open a bank, and go public on his own, it will be a huge profit and it will be extremely satisfying. The most primitive and noble, greedy and noble in human nature, concentrated in today’s blockchain technology, is far from being as simple as a bubble.

『三』The country attaches so much importance to the blockchain, is it necessary for capital forces to gather in the blockchain field? Which institutions are worth paying attention to?

Yuehua Capital is focused on investment A venture capital institution for companies related to blockchain technology.

The team has rich experience and sufficient resources in both the financial field and the blockchain field. Through project investment and cooperation, it links key nodes in the blockchain ecology and promotes the development of blockchain technology. The chain industry develops steadily.
Blockchain + finance is an issue that the People’s Daily has just focused on recently, CCTV.comHe also released a video the day before yesterday: What can the blockchain that is competing for layout do, and he proposed that whoever masters the blockchain technology will master the future.
In fact, the combination of blockchain technology and finance is no accident. Simply put, blockchain is a distributed shared ledger and database, which has the characteristics of decentralization, non-tampering, full traceability, and traceability. Finance is cooperation based on trust, and these characteristics of blockchain lay the foundation for creating trust. Blockchain technology is of great significance in solving problems in the financial field such as high credit risk, low capital utilization efficiency, and high payment processing costs. We firmly believe that blockchain technology will play a more important role in the future and bring greater efficiency and a safer environment to the global economy.

This year, in September, Yuehua Capital announced a strategic investment in Tepleton, a star blockchain project from Silicon Valley.
Tepleton is a new blockchain financial solution based on the underlying cross-chain technology, which will empower cutting-edge financial fields such as trust, banking, insurance, securities, and leasing. Tepleton proposed the concept of FinBlockchain for the first time in the world, defining it as "an open, credible, efficient and decentralized new financial era based on the underlying technology of blockchain.
Tepleton is committed to creating a new paradigm of blockchain + finance, which is also an important reason why Yuehua Capital is optimistic about Tepleton.
Tepleton’s core ecological application TANK Tank 2.0 has been released.
Tepleton ecological application TANK Tank 2.0 The first "RiRiShengJinBao" released is such a fixed income fund product that provides digital asset value-added services and current asset management services. It is a token management tool in the digital token era and is conducive to promoting the marketization of digital token interest rates. process, known as the blockchain "Yue Bao".
As the core application of "blockchain + finance", TANK inherits Tepleton's development concept of "innovation and win-win" to be open, credible and efficient. , decentralization as the value principle, creating a new financial era of blockchain.
The reason why Yuehua Capital is optimistic about the development of Tepleton is not only because it is a pioneer of "blockchain + finance", but also because of its own Since the application of blockchain technology, it has been focusing on innovation in the new financial field and carefully creating innovative financial products. Its core ecological application TANK Fund has grasped the value investment opportunities under industry trends with a forward-looking vision and opened up the market with high-quality assets. Value sacrificial stones under a differentiated pattern, using active management to achieve connotative growth of assets under the new normal, aiming to provide trustworthy asset allocation services for Tepleton ecological users and digital token holders.
Follow Yuehuaben , grasp the pulse of the times, and achieve wealth growth early.

『四』 What is "blockchain" and what does it have to do with us

Blockchain is essentially aA decentralized distributed ledger database, which is a series of data blocks generated by cryptographic correlation. Each data block contains valid confirmation information for multiple Bitcoin network transactions.

Statistics show that in 2017, the issuance of electronic invoices in my country reached 1.31 billion, and is expected to reach 54.55 billion by 2022, maintaining an average annual growth rate of more than 100%. Recently, "People's Daily" emphasized when talking about blockchain invoices that electronic invoices need to be "locked", and the characteristics of blockchain such as open consensus, decentralization, non-tamperability, distributed consistency and privacy protection are The "lock" of electronic invoices.

Finally, I repeat my thoughts: Blockchain gives us freedom, and freedom will bring a lot of innovation. Innovation will ultimately bring us wealth. I believe that blockchain will have a similar development path. The core mission of the blockchain is to stabilize value, establish a trust system with almost zero cost, and release the energy of individuals to pursue the preservation and appreciation of wealth. < br />

The central bank’s digital currency is a great chess game of the times!

Asia Weekly published an article in 2019. A visionary god predicted that the RMB will be freely convertible and thoroughly dismantled the logic!

As of June 18, 2020: The top decision-makers of the Party Central Committee in the fields of economy, finance, and securities simultaneously announced the "free convertibility of the RMB" at the 12th Shanghai Lujiazui Forum, and Singapore's senior officials took advantage of the opportunity and Shanghai exchanges views on digital currency interconnection!

01

The central bank's digital currency in disguise realizes the free exchange of RMB

br />If today's RMB cannot become the basic settlement currency in international trade overseas due to restrictions on free convertibility, then the virtual digital currency relying on blockchain technology and issued by the central bank will not be able to be used by a large number of digital currencies. Acceptance by currency exchanges is equivalent to realizing the free convertibility of RMB from another level. In international trade, any party holding the virtual digital currency of the Central Bank of China can exchange this digital currency for Bitcoin or other virtual digital currencies through an exchange, and then exchange it for other legal currencies. In this way, China will get rid of the traditional foreign exchange settlement channel under the hegemony of the US dollar and is expected to create a new settlement currency for international trade. Even if it cannot replace the US dollar for the time being, it can replace stablecoins such as USDT in Internet trade, and it can also become the basic currency for international personal payments.

At present, China is worried about foreign exchange outflows and dare not allow the free convertibility of the RMB. In the future, the outflow of the central bank's virtual digital currency will have nothing to do with foreign exchange, because the anchor behind it will definitely still be the RMB. This also breaks the current curse of asset outflows and foreign exchange declines. Even if the outflow of virtual digital currencies is allowed, there is no need to worry about a decrease in foreign exchange reserves. This is why we believe that at this moment, the central government should elevate to the Politburo level to pay attention to the development of blockchain technology.

The third type of virtual currency is a comprehensive innovation of security tokens that takes advantage of blockchain technology to "confirm ownership." The 2017 ICO made many people discover that tokens combined with smart contracts can actually use funds more effectively than stocks, bonds, options, etc., while improving efficiency. However, because the existing legal regulatory framework cannot effectively regulate the responsible parties for token financing, the token economy has begun to become somewhat bleak in the past two years. There are also various problematic projects that use tokens to fish in troubled waters, making tokens The economy is considered a "scam". However, as the world gains a greater consensus on blockchain and more information and rights are put on the "chain", the token economy, which has made huge innovations in the existing financial system, will eventually return.

Under the influence of the "cypherpunk" organization led by libertarians, the road to virtual digital currency starting from Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin white paper was originally intended to subvert the U.S. dollar. The international financial system must subvert the global economic order centered on any country's legal currency. Now, with the help of blockchain, China may be able to challenge the hegemony of the US dollar, but it also has to face the challenge of decentralization, and it is impossible for China to establish an international financial system dominated by RMB. The line written by Satoshi Nakamoto in the Bitcoin genesis block mocked the old financial order. Today’s financial order in China is also within the scope of his ridicule. As China fully embraces blockchain, it needs to understand and utilize blockchain better than the United States to help rebuild the new global economic order and financial system. This is the real breakthrough.

China also has a greaterThe advantage of China is that China is not as dependent on the hegemony of the US dollar as the United States, so it is easier for China to turn around. With the top-down emphasis on blockchain technology, in addition to finance, blockchain, a decentralized social organization idea that combines "people" and "machine", will inspire more people. Gradually manifest and play its role. This may have more far-reaching consequences.

RMB 3.0, that is, the central bank's digital currency will break through the US dollar monopoly. Find a way to achieve economic breakthrough and challenge the hegemony of the US dollar. China is studying to launch a "RMB 3.0" cryptocurrency system, which will be linked to sovereign credit and establish an appropriate proportional relationship with national GDP, fiscal revenue, and gold reserves. China leads the world in the field of blockchain. There are seven Chinese companies in the top ten of the global blockchain enterprise invention patent rankings, and China's patents account for 67%.

Blockchain is China's search for an economic breakthrough during the Sino-US trade war. It is not only a new industrial economic growth point, but also regarded by China as a good way to challenge the hegemony of the US dollar. Blockchain has recently received great attention from China's top leaders. In a speech on October 24, they called blockchain "a breakthrough for independent innovation in core technologies." Subsequently, the People's Daily and other official media published editorials in support, which also led to China's Blockchain-related stocks in the stock market have surged. Bitcoin surged by 20% on October 27, and blockchain concept stocks in the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets are also rising. The development of blockchain in China has two directions. The first is to combine blockchain technology with real industries to promote and improve the efficiency of existing industries. The second is to launch the "RMB 3.0" currency system to fight against the hegemony of the US dollar and find a new way to develop. The currency system further digitizes the RMB (digital, digital).

RMB 3.0 represents the RMB entering a new stage. Huang Qifan, Vice Chairman of the China Center for International Economic Exchanges, said that the People’s Bank of China is likely to be the first in the world to launchDigital currency central bank. RMB 1.0 is a paper currency, while RMB 2.0 is going electronic, entering the homes of ordinary people through Alipay, WeChat payment and other systems, and becoming a daily payment tool. RMB 3.0 is digital and becomes a cryptocurrency. Any currency involves the issue of mortgage and support. Huang Qifan believes that digital currency should be linked to sovereign credit and establish an appropriate proportional relationship with national GDP, fiscal revenue, and gold reserves to serve as credit support for RMB 3.0. He also said that the digital currency of the People’s Bank of China should be (DCEP) is a replacement for M0 (cash in circulation), rather than digitizing existing currencies, that is, gradually converting cash on the market into cryptocurrency. RMB 3.0 will get rid of concerns about exchange rate fluctuations with the US dollar, compete with each other, and promote the digital RMB to form a new ecosystem. With the support of huge domestic demand and the "One Belt, One Road" initiative, the hegemony of the US dollar will be challenged. At the current juncture of the Sino-US trade war, this is China's "sudden emergence" as a bargaining chip, posing strong pressure on the United States.

China has long been a pioneer in blockchain applications. In 2014, when Vitalik Buterin, the inventor of Ethereum, developed the "next-generation cryptocurrency and decentralized application platform," he relied on the support of Chinese investors. Today, at least seven of the top ten global virtual currencies are closely related to the Chinese and global Chinese. The Chinese’s deep involvement in the blockchain field is actually also reflected in the Bitcoin “mining” project. Today, about 70% of miners are still in China. The world's largest mining company "Bitmain" and Canaan are both Chinese companies.

China's blockchain scientific research results are also the best in the world. According to the "Global Blockchain Enterprise Invention Patent Ranking in the First Half of 2019" jointly released by the intellectual property industry media IPRdaily and the incoPat Innovation Index Research Center "List", seven of the top ten companies applying for patents are Chinese companies, and only two are from the United States. The top two are China's Ant Financial and Ping An. In terms of countries, China accounts for 67% of patents, and the United States ranks second, accounting for only 16%. On the contrary, China has overtaken the United States in scientific research on blockchain. Alibaba's blockchain application scenarios include drug authenticity traceability, cross-border mobile phone transfers, electronic bills, etc., reflecting that in addition to cryptocurrency, China is also working hard to support the real economy with blockchain.

The "2018 China Blockchain Industry White Paper" released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China last year also planned that the industries for future blockchain development include: commodity traceability, copyright protection and transactions, and electronic evidence storage. In more than a dozen industrial fields such as certificates, financial science, precision marketing, big data trading, industry, energy, medical, and digital identity Internet of Things, the "People's Daily" commentary also stated that blockchain innovation should be related to the hype of cryptocurrency and air currency. Treat them differently, and also pointed out that blockchain needs to be further developed and improved in terms of security, standards, and supervision, which means thatImplement it and make a contribution to the real economy.

The source flow of the blockchain

Ten years ago, the founder of Bitcoin, Nakamoto, wrote a line in the creation block of the world. The permanently preserved text is the title of the front-page article in The Times that day: "On January 3, 2009, the chancellor is on the verge of implementing a second round of bank emergency bailouts." The purpose of Satoshi Nakamoto's move Obviously, he wanted future generations to look up the genesis block to see that a new financial system was born at a moment when the old financial system was weak.

In the past ten years, Bitcoin has transformed from a game played by a few technical geniuses into a global financial tool. The blockchain technology summarized by Bitcoin has become the future The underlying foundation of the smart era. The span of this decade has dazzled many people. In fact, there is no need to extend the time to ten years. Even the changes in recent months have shocked many people.

Libra, a certain stable currency, is almost going to rewrite the global payment landscape. Of course, this ambitious plan has been strongly blocked by the vested interest groups that currently control the hegemony of the US dollar in the name of supervision, causing Libra to be in trouble. On October 23, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg testified before the U.S. Congress: “We need to discuss the risks of not innovating, especially the Chinese central bank’s digital currency... If China’s financial system becomes With the standards of more and more countries, it will be difficult for the United States to implement sanctions and variousSafeguard. "

In the context of the current confrontation between China and the United States, as soon as Zuckerberg's warning came out, there was an echo. China stepped forward from the highest level and cleared the biggest obstacle to the central bank’s digital currency. On the afternoon of the 24th, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held its 18th collective study session on the current status and trends of blockchain technology development. The country emphasizes: "We must strengthen basic research, improve original innovation capabilities, and strive to make our country at the forefront of theory, occupy the commanding heights of innovation, and gain new industrial advantages in the emerging field of blockchain."

On September 4, 2017, after seven departments including the Central Bank, the Cyberspace Administration of China, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the China Banking Regulatory Commission, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and the China Insurance Regulatory Commission issued an absolute ban on ICO financing, the development of the blockchain industry in China actually entered a new phase. A gray area. The ban has been imposed from top to bottom, seeming to limit the exploration of blockchain applications and development within the industry. The current top-level characterization of "taking blockchain as an important breakthrough for independent innovation in core technology" is tantamount to completely lifting the ban. Central bank digital currency can soon move from theory to practice, and other aspects should be liberalized accordingly.

As a technology, blockchain is not complicated. The key to blockchain is that it provides a decentralized social organization idea that combines "people" and "machine". What is important is society’s consensus and practice of this idea. If we say that in the first five years of Bitcoin, it was difficult for many people to see the birth of a new financial system, but in the last five years, especially the smart contracts that Ethereum relied on, people saw an upgraded version of Bitcoin. That is to say, the emergence of the so-called blockchain 2.0, people can really use this to completely rewrite the existing financial order, not only the payment order, but also the securities order, including the banking order, etc.

05

Switzerland Singapore has promoted blockchain

In the past five years, many countries seeking to occupy a higher status in the global financial system have long been Take action to fully embrace blockchain, typical examples include Switzerland and Singapore. They have long become believers of Satoshi Nakamoto and have long believed in the grand goal of Bitcoin's design. They are also practicing. But although their efforts have had an impact on the blockchain industry, they are not enough to shake the world's financial system. why? Because they are too small, the "consensus" formed by their country is not enough to drive the entire world.

So, oneOnce a major country like China or the United States that can influence the world recognizes the idea of ​​​​blockchain, and then applies specific technologies to various industries, then a global consensus will be established. Only then will a new financial order emerge. Therefore, China and the United States are bound to encounter each other in terms of blockchain consensus standards. In recent months, such encounters have suddenly come to light.

Satoshi Nakamoto, who originally designed Bitcoin, whether he is a person or a team, whether he lives or dies, he laid the foundation for the creation of a financial system based on the Internet. However, the subsequent development of virtual currencies starting from Bitcoin and blockchain exceeded Satoshi Nakamoto’s expectations and became more complex. Satoshi Nakamoto's design was to make Bitcoin a third-party payment currency in Internet trade. This goal has obviously not been achieved. Today's Bitcoin, in Internet trade, fulfills the role of another kind of financial work.

The so-called Internet trade does not refer to e-commerce, which moves offline stores online and then sells them. In the design of Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin white paper, Internet trade refers to trade that arises from the Internet ecosystem and is then traded in the Internet ecosystem. Because there is no offline involvement at all, transactions can be conducted through Bitcoin, a purely virtual currency. But now, with a constant total amount, Bitcoin is increasingly becoming a reserve currency and a tool that can be regarded as a store of value like gold. On the contrary, Libra in the design, or the central bank virtual currency that the People's Bank of China has been mentioning for a long time, can become a payment tool in Internet trade.

Today, relying on blockchain technology, three different types of virtual currencies have emerged. The first is Bitcoin. As more and more people around the world recognize Bitcoin, the so-called "consensus" is getting stronger and stronger. Bitcoin, whose current price is constantly fluctuating, will inevitably find a balance in valuation.

The second type is "Stablecoin" as a payment tool. Libra's mission is to "build a simple global monetary and financial infrastructure to serve billions of people." Mu Changchun, director of the Digital Currency Research Institute of the People's Bank of China, said in September that the People's Bank of China's version of digital currency is "ready to come out" and that the People's Bank of China's version of digital currency will adopt a two-tier structure and will be issued to institutions and directly to individuals. This means that China’s central bank’s version of digital currency is expected to become a tool for global netizens to enter the virtual currency trading market, replacing the current role of stable currencies such as USDT. More importantly, with the recognition of the world's second largest economy, which is the consensus of more than one billion people, the Chinese central bank's version of virtual digital currency can easily be accepted as a transaction tool for cross-border payments.

『Lu』 Four questions reveal the true identity of blockchain. What kind of technology is it?

Four questions reveal The true content of blockchain: What kind of technology is it?What can be changed?
Do you have the feeling that all explanations of blockchain always make people feel confused and confused? Even Yang Kaisheng, the former president of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, who has studied blockchain for many years, bluntly stated at the Tsinghua University Blockchain Application and Investment Forum that blockchain is becoming increasingly incomprehensible, and the more it is talked about, the more mysterious it becomes.
Actually, blockchain is just a technology, not as omnipotent and mysterious as the legend says. Abandoning the buzzing technical terms and obscure professional terms, we try to uncover the true identity of blockchain hidden behind the veil through these four questions.
1Q
What kind of technology is blockchain?
Blockchain is a very important patch in the history of the development of the Internet
What exactly is blockchain?
The "China Blockchain Technology and Application Development White Paper 2016" issued under the guidance of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology explains: Broadly speaking, blockchain technology uses block chain data structures to verify and store data, and uses distributed node consensus algorithms. A new distributed infrastructure and computing paradigm that generates and updates data, uses cryptography to ensure the security of data transmission and access, and uses smart contracts composed of automated script codes to program and operate data.
In the book "Link to the Future", the author writes more simply and clearly, "In a nutshell, blockchain is a technology that can significantly reduce the cost of credit in commercial society. Blockchain as a Once the data in a distributed account book is recorded, it will be saved forever and cannot be changed."
The weak centralization and non-tampering properties of blockchain have always been the most valued by blockchain enthusiasts Two major characteristics. According to industry insiders, this will solve the trust problem to a great extent.
“If you say that blockchain can subvert everything, I think it’s too much.” Liu Siyu, founder of Top Found, believes that blockchain is a very important patch in the history of the development of the Internet. The Internet solves the problem of efficiency, and blockchain can solve the problem of fairness to a certain extent.
In his view, the Facebook data theft incident has drawn people's attention to data security. If data and credit assets are put on the chain, no unauthorized centralized organization will be able to obtain the data. , users will have the right to control their own data, and data security will be properly guaranteed.
Not only that, industry insiders believe that the fair future of blockchain may also be reflected in Token. Previously, this term was translated into "token", which is a virtual currency such as Bitcoin, but now the circle Insiders prefer to translate this word as "incentive mechanism."
“When Token is no longer a currency for speculation, but a reward mechanism for users in blockchain applications, then it will become a good solution to the issue of fairness.” An industry insider He said that Token is inevitably generated during the operation of blockchain technology. How to use it in the most reasonable manner is an issue that needs to be considered in future supervision and application projects.
However, can this kind of accounting-sharing technology really improve efficiency?
Further research is needed, at least for now. As Yang Kaisheng said, Bitcoin transaction settlement is completed seven or eight times per second, which is too slow. "Frankly speaking, in today's bank operation and management, this is difficult for banks to accept, and it is also unbearable for the majority of customers and the public."
In fact, there are already blocks that are better than Bitcoin With the emergence of chain processing methods, the industry generally believes that digital currencies such as Ethereum and EOS are superior to Bitcoin in terms of settlement capabilities and application development.
Tang Ling, founder and CEO of Zhigui Technology, predicted at the "Node·Symbiosis GBA Global Blockchain Technology Application Conference" that the next generation blockchain system should be a multi-chain, multi-economic model architecture. Cross-chain interaction ultimately requires a trusted database and a trusted data source.
2Q
What exactly can blockchain change?
At least many people believe that blockchain will restructure the financial system
Speaking of blockchain, everyone seems to be talking about how blockchain can change the world and is an important force leading the world's future technological development. But what exactly can blockchain change? Perhaps many important business formats will be restructured.
At least many people believe that blockchain will reconstruct the financial system of the current world. In fact, blockchain technology was born in finance, and it can solve the problem of integrity in financial transactions.
Financial people like to use bills as an example. In the past few years, it is not uncommon to hear that bills deposited in banks have been turned into newspapers, and bills worth hundreds of millions of dollars have disappeared. If you take advantage of the non-tamperable and traceable properties of blockchain, then such ridiculous things will not happen.
Industry insiders believe that blockchain finance can implement contract principles and solve trust issues through technical methods. Through consensus protocols and programmable smart contracts, mutual trust and credit can be established, business terms agreed upon by all parties to the transaction can be formulated and executed, and legal rules and regulatory control nodes can be introduced to ensure that value exchange complies with contract principles and legal norms, avoiding Unpredictable trading risks.
Industry insiders generally believe that blockchain uses technological trust to bolster commercial credit, which is conducive to maintaining financial integrity. It will have an impact on many aspects such as payment, credit reporting, currency form, etc.
In addition to finance, industry insiders generally believe that blockchain may also play a role in insurance, medical care, education, real estate, even judicial activities, charity, etc., to establish a more transparent and secure network system.
3 Questions
How far has the blockchain developed?
It is still at an early stage of development, but some companies are using the guise of blockchain to promote themselves
“No matter how you look at it, blockchain can generate great value in the future, which is why all People are actively researching the reasons." Li Feng, head of Internet Financial Blockchain, said, but the current research and application of blockchain technology are only in the experimental stage. The current blockchain technologyThere are indeed big shortcomings.
According to Li Feng, from the perspective of the technical level of the industry, there is still a lot of room for improvement in terms of the performance of blockchain technology, its integration with business, and its underlying technology algorithms. Today, the infrastructure for blockchain is still not complete, and blockchain still has a long way to go before it can be widely used.
In fact, looking at the layout of the three Internet giants BAT on the blockchain, some applications have begun to be gradually implemented. But most are still in the research and development stage.
Since 2016, Alibaba has been trying to use blockchain technology in charity tracking, cross-border food supply chain, medical and other fields. And last year, it established the "BASIC" strategy and opened up blockchain technology. This year, Alibaba also launched the luxury goods platform Luxury Pavilion. The raw material production process, circulation process, and marketing process of goods are all written into the blockchain.
Tencent Cloud released a blockchain TBaaS white paper in early April this year, establishing blockchain services based on Tencent Cloud. At the same time, Tencent also established a joint laboratory with the Bank of China last year, and the two parties will conduct comprehensive cooperation based on blockchain, big data and other aspects.
It is worth noting that research on blockchain technology is still ongoing. The industry generally believes that blockchain technology is still at an early stage of development, but there are indeed some companies that are hyping themselves under the guise of blockchain.
4Q
What opportunities can blockchain bring?
This feast will obviously no longer belong to speculators
In February this year, the "People's Daily" article on blockchain ignited the country's enthusiasm for blockchain technology. Dou Jiali, a researcher at Peking University Guanghua Financial Technology Laboratory, wrote in the People's Daily that the birth of blockchain will significantly reduce the cost of value transmission and once again greatly liberate productivity. We should seize the opportunity of blockchain.
At the 2018 Boao Sina Finance Night·Zhenghe Island Night Talk, Xunlei Group CEO Chen Lei said that the innovation of blockchain has changed the social organizational structure and given China an opportunity to surpass the United States and Western countries. "In the development process of the electronics industry, communications industry, and Internet industry, China started later than the United States and Western countries. Blockchain is really a very important opportunity, because China started almost at the same time as the Western world."
And Wu Ying, chairman of Zhongze Jiameng Investment Fund, believes that the opportunities brought by blockchain are beyond the imagination of many people and are dozens, hundreds or even thousands of times greater than those in the early days of the Internet.
In Wu Ying's view, capital should support those "real entrepreneurs". In the field of blockchain, the so-called real entrepreneurs are not only people who "want to do things for the long term", but more importantly, "people at the technical level" ". He believes that blockchain is very suitable for people who really understand Internet technology to start a business. They start from making products and start from the lowest technology, and they can indeed build a new blockchain technology platform.
However, this feast will obviously no longer belong to speculators: for ordinary investors, blockchainThe chain concept may no longer be an easy place to make money. Wu Xiaobo, a well-known financial commentator, predicts that the retail blockchain craze will become the biggest investment joke of the year. He believes that the financial derivatives of investment opportunities seem to give everyone the opportunity to share the dividends of technological change, but in fact, it is more of a trap for speculators.
In other words, only by returning to technology itself and developing technology instead of using self-deception can we truly apply technology to the world and maximize its value in serving people. Only then can we bring tangible benefits to the further development of China's economy. Effective beneficial effects.

『撒』 Is mining reliable? Can you still make money by mining Bitcoin? An old miner tells you

When it comes to blockchain, I think blockchain The project can really achieve results within the next 3-5 years, and it will either be recognized by the world or eliminated by the world. If you want to make money all the way through those random projects on the market, it may not be realistic. Within 5 years , there will definitely be a huge wave of rectification, and it will only become more and more formalized and unified!

There are many many projects on the market. Cut a wave of leeks cut a wave of leeks. However, the people who really make money are really small and less! So why are so many people willing to try and do it? It is indeed because many players make a lot of money! ! ! And those who really make money are often those project parties! I have been in the industry for four years and have been cheated many times and lost all my money! But I also encountered good projects and made my first pot of gold in life! ! This is also the reason why I chose to be a miner first. Anything that can create a legend must also have its merits, and Bitcoin’s merit lies in the blockchain. Not long ago, the People's Daily published a full-page report on blockchain. From the research on the concept of blockchain, the estimation of blockchain development trends, and being a leader in the digital economy, it called on the national government to conduct research on the region. Blockchain technology is strongly supported. No matter which angle you look at, it is certain that blockchain is constantly receiving official attention and has penetrated into the economic circle with great momentum. When Bitcoin was first designed, a 140-year mining time was defined. There was a long experimental time for basic technology research and development and iteration. The current progress is beyond expectations. If all the mining was completed today, I believe many People would think that its price has skyrocketed a long time ago (many Bitcoins are now mined out and put into the market every day to suppress the currency price). However, it has only been digging for eight years so far! It can also be said that it has just begun! The computing power of the entire network has grown very rapidly. At the beginning of 2017, the computing power of the entire network was only about 2E. By the end of 2017, it had exceeded 20E, an increase of about 10 times in one year. Now when calculating mining income, I use a 2% increase in each cycle (about 13 days). If it grows at this rate, it will increase to 5 times in one year, that is, the computing power of the entire network will increase to 28E in June 2018. However, in less than June, the entire networkThe computing power has exceeded this value, which is a very large increase.

Are so many people really optimistic about mining?

In the Bitcoin operating rules, every time a block is created, a certain number of Bitcoins will be generated. (The act of creating blocks is called mining.) On average, every four years, the number of Bitcoins generated per block will be halved. It is expected that by 2140, all 21 million Bitcoins will be "produced". That is, as time goes by, the cost of generating new Bitcoins will become higher and higher. It will become increasingly difficult to mine a new coin. Mining output is related to only two variables: mining difficulty and mining machine computing power. The output is inversely proportional to the mining difficulty and directly proportional to the mining machine's computing power. As the difficulty continues to rise, the more mining machines there are, the more Bitcoins can be mined every day. If you don't take action, it will be too late!

Of course, many people ask, if mining returns are low, it’s because you don’t understand mining! Dig first and hoard first, then sell when the price of Bitcoin rises. It is definitely a direct currency speculation, the cost is much lower! ! ! Mining belongs to the level 1 market! In other words, mining belongs to the manufacturer. Do you think the goods sold directly by the manufacturer are cheaper? Or is it cheaper in the supermarket? ? Although the price of Bitcoin has not risen very much recently, the income from mining is still very considerable! ! The real opportunity to make money should be in 2020, so all miners, please save your Bitcoins and ride the rocket together next year! !

In the currency circle, playing with digital currencies and making money rely on opportunities. Opportunities are given to you. If you are not sure, you will just sigh~~ Why did you dig it in the first place? Mine can be said to have no reason to hesitate! In 2009, Bitcoin was launched, and it cost 2 cents a piece. Now it costs 60,000 yuan. Who would have thought it? I have been studying mining for many years, and it can be said that there is really zero risk!

Of course, the future value increase of Bitcoin is the key, and investment is a probabilistic event. How long can this game last? I can only say that the sooner, the better! ! ! Can Bitcoin rise to the point where one coin per villa? The answer can only be left to tomorrow.

『玖』 How to remove the fake and preserve the true in the blockchain

The era of barbaric growth is coming, which is both an opportunity and a challenge for the blockchain.
In recent years, blockchain has gradually developed into a hot topic. Especially in 2018, which has just entered, the concept of "blockchain" has appeared frequently in the business world. So what exactly is blockchain? Why is Liang Shiqiao, an entrepreneur and capitalist, so concerned?
Previously, many people believed that blockchain and Bitcoin were antagonistic.But after a deeper understanding, I found that this was a wrong idea. To put it bluntly, blockchain is a distributed ledger, and Bitcoin uses blockchain technology to improve itself.
Blockchain is a decentralized technology, just like a country. In this country, the distribution of data information and rights between people is the same, and there is no falsification of data. It is possible and impossible to lose. The two major advantages of sharing mechanism and value exchange are the power of blockchain.
Is blockchain becoming a new trend after Bitcoin?
As early as 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto published an article titled "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" on the forum. The concept of blockchain was first proposed in the article.
However, there have been constant controversies since the emergence of Bitcoin. The loudest opponents are Warren Buffett and Robert Shiller. Buffett, known as the "Stock God", made it clear that Bitcoin "will definitely not have a good outcome in the end." Of course, there are also voices of support. Wall Street tycoon Jamie Dimon believed that Bitcoin was a scam a year ago, but now he has overturned his previous view and believes that blockchain is real. Regardless of the final outcome, the development of Bitcoin has attracted more and more attention in recent years.
In 2013, Bitcoin skyrocketed 100 times from being worthless at the beginning. However, in the next two years, Bitcoin showed a sharp decline again. In 2014, it fell by no less than 70%. In 2015, it fell by more than 20% again. By 2016, Bitcoin entered an upward stage, and by 2017, it was resurrected. This roller coaster development not only brought losses to people, but also attracted more attention to the blockchain.
People love and hate Bitcoin. When Bitcoin becomes popular, as the core foundation and underlying architecture of Bitcoin, blockchain is gradually attracting people's attention. Blockchain is the key to supporting the formation of Bitcoin. The reason why Bitcoin can achieve such results is inseparable from the blockchain. Since every transaction in Bitcoin is recorded in a block-by-block ledger, this ledger is decentralized, and the blockchain serves as the "role" of the Bitcoin ledger. Bitcoin can be said to be the best application of blockchain, bar none.
Some time ago, Xue Manzi acquired this domain name, and in this transaction, Xue Manzi used Bitcoin to complete the transaction. This incident caused quite a stir in the circle. Recently, the frequency of use of Bitcoin in domain name transactions has been increasing, and what caused this phenomenon is the importance that capitalists attach to blockchain.
Previously, blockchain was only used by Bitcoin, but in recent years, as Bitcoin gradually spreads around the world, blockchain has begun to be applied in various projects, such as Ant Financial, JD.com, Internet and Tencent have gradually begun to apply blockchain technology. The authenticity and non-tampering nature of blockchain makes its application in other projects such as public welfare even more convenient. For example, Ant Financial has applied blockchain technology in "Hearing-impaired children regain their lives", Tencent launched the “Public Welfare Human Search Chain” and so on. By 2017, blockchain has begun to be widely used and has gradually formed a new trend.
The era of barbaric growth is coming, which is both an opportunity and a challenge for the blockchain
There is this sentence in Dickens's "A Tale of Two Cities": "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was wisdom. This is an era of stupidity. People have all kinds of things in front of them, and people have nothing in front of them; people are going straight to heaven, and people are going straight to hell." Just like the blockchain, if you do it well, you will be the pioneer who participates in the changes of the times. Do it poorly and you will perish.
Today, the blockchain is facing such a situation: the rapidly developing society and the emerging enterprises have brought many possibilities to the blockchain, which has attracted more attention and accelerated the development of the blockchain industry. The enterprise application of blockchain may usher in a new era.
Blockchain can be roughly divided into three types: private chain, alliance chain and public chain. Each blockchain corresponds to different scenario applications. The most critical difference between these blockchains is the degree of decentralization. Limit scope. Blockchain is also widely used due to its distributed recording of data, data cannot be tampered with, and is open and transparent. Different from the transmission of information on the Internet, the blockchain is the transmission of value, which can be said to be an upgrade of the Internet. Based on this, blockchain is considered to be another central technology that is very likely to cause a disruptive revolution after steam engines, electricity, and the Internet.
But the blockchain is not omnipotent:
Firstly, there is delay in the blockchain. Take transactions in Bitcoin as an example. Its effectiveness is affected by network propagation and takes ten minutes to complete. Be informed and recognized;
Secondly, the blockchain itself does not have the two functions of "modify" and "delete", which makes post-processing very troublesome if errors occur when recording data.
In addition to its own limitations, in the face of the complex enterprise market, blockchain, which has gradually become the new darling of the market, has also led to a series of "accidents" such as "coin speculation" and "pseudo-blockchain". .
In September last year, the country had banned the trading of virtual currencies such as Bitcoin and ICO, but the strong money-making effect has brought the currency speculation boom back to people's attention. First, Xunlei launched Wankecoin (now called LinkToken) in October, then Renren released the blockchain project "Renrenfang" and the token RRcoin, and Kodak launched Kodak Coin. Many companies have entered the blockchain development industry. currency, which makes the phenomenon of "coin speculation" sweep across again.
Currently, there is no shortage of money-making projects on the market. Companies are mixed in the blockchain application market. It is difficult for investors to distinguish the pros and cons of projects, and there are even situations where bad coins drive out good coins. In the market, "processing" of public data has become a social norm. For example, in order to attract more consumers and capitalists, companies will modify the data they publish accordingly to attract users to choose and Corporate investment.
In addition, some companies are trying to make money in the name of blockchain. After seeing what blockchain bringsIn order to be the first to enter this trend and obtain high profits, some companies hurriedly entered the game before they understood the operation of blockchain; some even used blockchain gimmicks to make money wantonly, and then obtained high profits. Then quickly retreated. This blind application of blockchain has caused some companies that really want to apply and develop blockchain to gradually withdraw from the market, while some companies that mainly focus on making money are still active in the market, which has greatly affected the development of blockchain. normal development trajectory.
Although the blockchain has the core technology to create new trends, because it is still in its infancy and is not mature enough in all aspects, it will still bring about various problems such as "coin speculation", which have become obstacles to the blockchain stumbling blocks to chain development.
Will the increase in entrants accelerate the bursting of the blockchain bubble?
Relevant data shows that from November 2015 to December 2017, the growth rate of blockchain-related occupations reached 631%. However, in this huge data, there are some companies that join the blockchain ranks with the mentality of "getting a quick buck and leaving", which disrupts the normal development of blockchain in the market and further promotes the bursting of the blockchain bubble. 's appearance.
Different from previous years, blockchain has developed very well in recent years, and its application scope has expanded to various fields such as finance, education, government, cloud computing, medical care, and insurance. As the number of entrants gradually increased, many irrationalities appeared in blockchain applications, causing batches of contestants to withdraw.
Recently, a WeChat group called "Blockchain without Sleep at Three O'Clock" has aroused heated discussion. In this group, some well-known people from the industry gathered to talk about blockchain and Bitcoin day and night. Have an in-depth discussion. Among this group of people, blockchain has basically become their “belief”. It seems that if you don’t understand blockchain, you will be eliminated by the times. This kind of blindly following the trend reflects not only people's anxiety about the development of the times, but also the market's strong demand for blockchain. Furthermore, the recent popularity of blockchain concept stocks has triggered more and more investors to enter the blockchain market, causing the blockchain market to expand rapidly and create bubbles.
Furthermore, since the blockchain is still in its infancy, there are still many aspects that need to be improved. At this time, it is tentative for companies and investors to enter the blockchain. Blockchain, a technology with revolutionary significance for the times, still needs to be gradually developed. Moving forward rashly will only push the blockchain that is originally on the right track further.
Regarding the understanding of the development of blockchain, Gartner consulting firm has previously analyzed relevant aspects: a new technology basically goes through five stages, namely the embryonic stage, the popular expansion stage, the bubble bursting stage, and the upward recovery. period, maturity stage. According to Gartner's analysis in 2016, blockchain is already in a period of inflated expectations. At this time, it is in a period when the bubble is about to burst, and it will take 5 to 10 years before blockchain reaches maturity. .
Will blockchain become the key to the era of change?
2017 can be said to be the year of the explosion of blockchain.Ben has been involved in blockchain. Although it has brought many problems to the market, the role of blockchain in market development cannot be ignored. Recently, "Three Questions about Blockchain (Economic Hotspots)", "Seizing the Opportunity of Blockchain", and "Being a Leader in the Digital Economy" published in the "People's Daily" clearly stated the impact of blockchain on various fields of the market. important role.
Issues such as delay, "pseudo-blockchain", and "coin speculation" will further attract people's attention after the blockchain bubble bursts, and more standardized market development will occur. Today, blockchain is still in its infancy. As more and more entrants enter the industry, a blockchain bubble is inevitable in the future. But after the bubble, blockchain will bring a disruptive experience to the market and usher in a new era.
Blockchain itself emphasizes "decentralization". In order to meet the ever-changing real needs, blockchain is upgrading to "multi-centering", which will completely break the data "island" and achieve comprehensive interconnection of information. situation. It can strengthen the trust security system, improve transaction efficiency, and meet the application needs of the increasingly developing era.
In short, the explosion of blockchain is inevitable. Its decentralized nature avoids the monopoly of Internet giants and brings development opportunities to many entrepreneurs and investors. But at the same time, based on blockchain, it can reduce transportation costs, is open and transparent, cannot be tampered with, has strong permeability and other properties, and is more convenient for market management. In the future business world, there will be a blockchain era that "removes fakes and preserves authenticity" .
