Ⅰ The Bank of Japan joins the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank in preparing to launch a digital currency

First the Federal Reserve, then the European Central Bank, and now the Bank of Japan: Central banks around the world are Quietly preparing to unleash digital currencies on an unsuspecting population, a last-ditch attempt to stoke inflation and dismantle the current monetary orthodoxy that has failed to improve the population's living standards (but most importantly, has failed to dispel the growing the more insurmountable global debt).

On Friday, the Bank of Japan joined the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank in saying it would begin experimenting with how to operate its own digital currency, rather than limiting it to conceptual studies as it has so far.

The bank explained that it may provide a universal CBDC if there is a "significant reduction" in cash in circulation and private digital currencies are insufficient to replace the function of cash, and pledged to provide tangible cash as long as there is public demand.

As Reuters reports, the move was announced in conjunction with seven major central bank groups, including the Bank of Japan, who believe that the core features of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) are resilience and legal clarity. frame. This is also in line with Japan’s new Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga’s focus on promoting digitalization and administrative reforms to improve the country’s competitiveness.

The Bank of Japan laid out its approach to CBDC in a report, saying that it will conduct the first phase of experiments on core core functions of CBDC (such as issuance and issuance) at the beginning of the fiscal year starting in April 2021. The Bank of Japan is working to look more closely at how to issue a universal CBDC aimed at widespread use among the public at large, including companies and households.

Naturally, in order to avoid triggering panic that the banknotes are about to flow out - thus prompting people to hoard them - the Bank of Japan said that CBDC "will complement, not replace, cash, and focus on making payment and settlement systems more convenient". However, just how "more convenient" it would be for a central bank to be able to remotely extinguish any amount of money in its own digital wallet without notification remains a mystery.

Unlike the Fed, the BOJ plans to have financial institutions and other private entities act as intermediaries between the central bank and end users, rather than having companies and households hold deposits directly with the BOJ.

"Although the Bank of Japan currently has no plans to issue CBDC, it is important to be fully prepared to respond to changes in the situation," the report said.

In the second phase In the experiment, the BOJ will look at the central bank's potential design, such as whether it should set a cap on issuance and pay a deposit.

The Bank of Japan said that in the final step before the issuance, it will launch a pilot program involving private companies and households.

The Bank of Japan added that it hopes to use CBDC not only for domestic payments but also for cross-border payments. In short, don’t worry, this is just an experiment... but once operational, it will take over the entire existing monetary system.

To be sure, complete control of the entire monetary transmission mechanism, right down to every currency in circulation, has always been a central banker's dream. The key reason for negative interest rates is that banks force consumers to take their money out of the bank and spend it, thereby increasing the velocity of money. This is a pity, as we have previously shown, historically low interest rates simply prompt more saving and less consumption, with disastrous consequences for local turnaround rates being passed through financial sectors such as Japan and Europe.

Japan has so far been wary of moving too quickly to digital currencies because of the social disruption it could cause to the most populous country, which has a lot of cash. However, China's steady progress in issuing a digital currency has prompted the government to reconsider, especially if China triggers a new wave of deflation after being the first to convert its entire population to digital currencies, and it has pledged to pay closer attention to the idea in this year's policy platform .

Of course, the real reason why central banks urgently need to implement digital currencies is simple and has nothing to do with serving the people, increasing the convenience of transfers, or improving the stability and efficiency of payment and settlement systems. It has to do with discrete controls on inflation and achieving global “helicopter money”. That’s how Bill Campbell, manager of the DoubleLine Fixed Income Portolio, describes it in his latest must-read note, “Pandora’s Box of Central Bank Digital Currencies.”

When central banks first implemented quantitative easing, they promised that the measure would be temporary and would be lifted when the crisis was over. I've been skeptical of this commitment for some time. As far as we know, central banks are retaining quantitative easing as part of their latest monetary policy toolbox. The first use of digital currencies in monetary policy is likely to be highly unlikely as policymakers err on the side of caution and try to calibrate the experiment with quasi-fiscal stimulus. However, this initial restriction may lead people to become complacent and use the tool more, as we saw with QE. The temptation of CBDC is not limited to excessive monetary policy. CBDC also appears to be an effective mechanism for implementing quasi-fiscal policy, bypassing the government’s taxation, debt issuance and spending prerogatives. For example, imagine the ease of implementing Modern Monetary Theory via CBDC. With a CBDC, central banks would have the necessary conduits to transfer digital currency directly to individuals’ bank accounts, ready to be spent via debit cards.

Here's another reason why it's hard to be optimistic: There's barely any public discussion or debate, and central banks are now hobbled to the point of opening up banks with even the largest private companies.Exhibit private companies just steps away from digital payment processors around the world. Here's a press release that few people noticed in early September from electronic payments giant Mastercard, which revealed that it had launched a "Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) test platform to enable central banks to evaluate and explore National Digital Currency”

As the global economy races to embrace digital payments, central banks are also looking to the future and examining how to support innovation while maintaining monetary policy and financial stability when issuing and distributing currency. In fact, according to a recent survey by the agency, 80% of central banks surveyed are working on some form of central bank digital currency (CBDC), and about 40% have progressed from conceptual research to experimenting with concepts and design. Bank for International Settlements.

Today, Mastercard announced a proprietary virtual test environment for central banks to evaluate CBDC use cases. The platform can simulate the issuance, distribution and exchange of CBDC between banks, financial service providers and consumers. Central banks, commercial banks, and technology and consulting firms are invited to work with Mastercard to evaluate CBDC technical designs, validate use cases and assess interoperability with existing payment standards available to consumers and businesses today.

Mastercard is a leader in operating multiple payment platforms and convening partners to ensure a level playing field for everyone from banks to businesses to mobile network operators to bring the most people into the digital economy. Mastercard wants to use its expertise to enable practical, secure digital currency development.

Raj Dhamodharan, executive vice president of digital assets and blockchain products and partnerships at Mastercard, said: “Central banks have accelerated their interest in digital currencies with various goals. of exploration, from promoting financial inclusion to modernizing the payments ecosystem. Mastercard is driving innovation to explore CBDC with the public sector, banks, fintech and consulting firms, and working with partners that align with our core values ​​and principles on this new platform This provides support for central banks to make decisions now and in the future on the way forward, Dhamodharan added.

Sheila Warren, Blockchain Lead for Digital Assets and Data Policy at the World Economic Forum : “Collaboration between the public and private sectors in exploring central bank digital currencies can help central banks better understand the range of technological possibilities and capabilities available with regard to CBDCs. Central banks can benefit from support in exploring the set of options available for CBDC and gain insights into opportunities that may arise. ”

Finally, why are central banks making blockchain the backbone of all digital currency efforts? It has nothing to do with their fascination with Bitcoin or their concerns that cryptocurrencies could become dominant (allThere must be certain factors for this). The real reason is that blockchain can make every discrete unit of currency, whether it’s a digital dollar, a digital euro, a digital yen, or a digital renminbi, starting digitally and ending with every transaction, at any given moment. Which wallet is being traced to.

In short, a blockchain-based digital currency would allow central banks to have a real-time map of every monetary unit in circulation and every economic transaction, which they would have in the tens of thousands. Which you can't do while billions of anonymous banknotes are still floating around (the opposite process was started by the European Central Bank when it abolished the infamous 500 euro note that allowed Europeans to easily circumvent Europe's negative interest rates) . Of course, when push comes to shove, central banks can also "warn" the public that the digital currencies in their digital wallets may soon expire, triggering a torrent of inflationary consumption at the flick of a switch.

Ⅱ Yu Fenghui: Bitcoin is gaining momentum and has opportunities

Although Bitcoin is a virtual currency or digital currency, to be truly promising, it must become a means of settlement and transaction. medium. At present, Bitcoin is only a tool for investment and especially speculation. If a currency cannot be separated from its financial attributes of speculative investment, then it will be difficult to become a real currency.

Of course, the main reason why Bitcoin is subject to speculative investment is that it is covered with a layer of mystery, and the designer released the words that the total number of Bitcoins is limited, leaving room for speculation for speculators. At the same time, Bitcoin is based on blockchain technology. It is either the symbol and pioneer of new economic and new financial decentralization, or the future development direction of the global financial industry. It has unimaginable power to disrupt traditional finance. This is another reason why it's the subject of hype.

The third reason is that China’s bad habits of speculation have eroded into Bitcoin. It is said that 90% of Bitcoin speculation platforms are in China. It’s no surprise that Bitcoin is wildly hyped. The bad habits of speculation all over China have begun to pollute the world, and Bitcoin is not immune. This is also the reason why no consumer company in China dares to use Bitcoin for settlement. However, the situation in developed countries such as Europe, the United States and Japan is completely different.

The first country that could use Bitcoin for transaction settlement was Canada. On October 31, 2013, the world's first publicly used Bitcoin ATM machine was put into use in Vancouver, Canada. Its operators were Bitcoiniacs of Vancouver and Robocoin of Nevada, USA. Through this machine in a Vancouver cafe The machine can exchange Bitcoin and Canadian dollars in both directions. After this ATM machine was put into use, it quickly attracted more than a dozen people to use it, and they were curious about how it worked. Users need to scan their palm information before using it, and the daily redemption limit is up to US$3,000.

Bitcoin appeared in 2009 and is not controlled by an institution similar to a central bank. 20In 2008, the concept of Bitcoin was proposed by a person named Satoshi Nakamoto.

On October 5, 2014, 247Exchange.com, a cryptocurrency exchange located in Belize, announced that it had obtained a cooperation agreement with "Bank Transfer System (Sofortbanking)". This agreement It will allow 22,000 branches of more than 400 banks across the European continent, connected to the SofortBanking payment system, to provide Bitcoin buyers with a quick purchase channel. If you have an account at one of these hundreds of banks, you can buy Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies more quickly and easily. This agreement covers 10 European countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, and an addendum includes banks in Slovenia and Hungary).

European banks are lining up with major retailers that accept Bitcoin directly. For example, according to an agreement between the Indonesian Bitcoin trading platform Bitcoin.co.id and the payment processor iPaymu, in Indonesia, which has a backward payment network, its 238 million residents can now use Bitcoin through more than 10,000 "Indomaret" convenience stores. currency. These protocols make it easier for more people around the world to access and use Bitcoin.

What is even more significant is that the clear positioning of Bitcoin has always been something the industry has been eagerly waiting for. After the U.S. regulatory agency CFTC officially defined Bitcoin and other virtual currencies as commodities in September 2015, on October 23, the European Court of Justice officially ruled that charging a certain fee to convert traditional currencies such as euros or Swedish krona into Bitcoin Bitcoin exchanges are exempt from paying value-added tax, a ruling seen as confirmation of Bitcoin’s currency status in Europe. According to EU regulations, "currency, bank notes and coins used as legal tender" are not subject to VAT.

After entering 2017, Bitcoin ushered in substantial progress in settlement transaction methods. In the United States, blockchain technology has begun to be used in oil trading. In late March 2017, trading company Trafigura and French bank Natixis, which are looking for cheaper ways to streamline trade processes, jointly tested the application of blockchain in U.S. oil market trade, indicating that digital technology may Changing crude oil trading. Trafigura and Natixis have been simulating blockchain operations using crude oil trading channels in Texas since November 2016. The technology can eliminate the tedious paperwork involved in oil trading such as sending contracts, letters of credit, inspections, etc. via email or fax.

Before the news of Bitcoin being used for oil transactions has faded, more and more Japanese physical stores are using it as a means of settlement, which will promote the popularity of this digital currency in Japan.As of the end of March 2017, there were approximately 4,500 stores in Japan that supported Bitcoin settlement. According to a report in the Nihon Keizai Shimbun on April 5, 2017, biccamera, a large electrical appliance retail chain, and bitFlyer, Japan’s largest Bitcoin exchange, have cooperated to launch a joint venture between biccamera’s Yurakucho flagship store in Tokyo and bicqlobiccamera from April 7, 2017. (A commercial facility jointly operated by biccamera and UNIQLO, referred to as bicqlo) Shinjuku East Exit store is trialling a Bitcoin settlement system. The settlement limit is tentatively set at an amount equivalent to 100,000 yen (1 U.S. dollar is equivalent to 110.6 yen), and you will enjoy the same proportion of shopping discounts as cash payment. Recruit-lifestyle, a company under the Recruit Group, aims to have 260,000 of its stores use Bitcoin for settlement by the summer of 2017.

The specific operation is that when consumers settle, they enter the amount of Japanese yen into the store's cashier software. The consumption amount will be converted into Bitcoins and a QR code will be displayed. After the consumer scans the code with his mobile phone, The consumption amount will be deducted from his Bitcoin account, and the Bitcoin exchange that cooperates with the store will convert the Bitcoin into Japanese yen and remit it to the store's account.

Starting from July 2017, consumption tax will no longer be paid when purchasing virtual currencies in Japan, which is also regarded as a booster for the expansion of the Bitcoin market. We note that on October 23, 2015, the European Court of Justice officially ruled that Bitcoin exchanges that charge a fee to convert traditional currencies such as euros or Swedish krona into Bitcoin are exempt from paying VAT. This ruling is regarded as Bitcoin The monetary status of the European region was confirmed. Coinciding with Japan's consumption tax exemption, it proves that the true currency status of Bitcoin transaction settlement method is confirmed by more and more countries.

Japan has implemented the newly revised "Fund Settlement Law" on April 1, 2017, introducing a registration system to manage exchanges engaged in virtual currency transactions such as Bitcoin, and related systems for the security of virtual currencies. Construction continues to advance. At the same time, it also truly established the true currency attributes of Bitcoin.

Of course, there are many obstacles that must be overcome before Bitcoin can truly become a global settlement method. The biggest obstacle is that the price of Bitcoin fluctuates violently. Many people hold Bitcoin for speculation, so it is difficult to promote it as a settlement method. . We must carry out targeted curbs, especially curbing the crazy speculation on Bitcoin in the Chinese mainland market. We cannot let the bad habits of crazy speculation and speculation in the Chinese mainland market spoil the good momentum of the development of digital currencies such as Bitcoin.

Ⅲ The "digital" reform of Japan's new cabinet will start with the seal culture and pave the way for the blockchain

The Japanese are world-famous for their red tape, and the seal culture may Make a note. In Japanese life, whenever you sign a contract, do errands, enter school, get married and other important life occasions, or even ask for leave from your boss, you must use your personal seal or the company's seal instead of your signature. In Japanese, printThe seal is called "Inkan" or "Hanko". For Japanese people, they should always prepare three or five seals for different purposes, which are important documents to prove their identity.

Although Japan has been a leading country in technology and digitalization for more than half a century, leading many innovations in games and robots, its trust in the traditional seal culture remains unwavering.

But as the coronavirus continues to wreak havoc on economic markets and redefine the norms of social distancing, Suga’s new cabinet is also taking advantage of the trend to promote digital reform.

On September 24, Japan’s Minister of Administrative Reform Taro Kono issued a “seal prohibition order” to the Cabinet Office and all central ministries and departments, requiring that the use of seals be abolished in principle in all administrative procedures. If there are a few occasions where it is necessary to use a seal, appropriate reasons should be submitted within this month. He also said he would cancel faxes next.

Taro Kono appealed, "Why do we need printing paper? In many cases, it is simply because of the need for an official seal. Therefore, if we can stop this culture, there will naturally be no need for printing and faxing ."

Research shows that 46.7% of Japanese employees have the chore of making a special trip back to the office to get stamped during the coronavirus outbreak. It can even be said that seal culture is one of the most important factors in Japan’s failure to transform into a remote work economy.

In this regard, Yuzo Kano, co-founder of Japanese crypto exchange bitFlyer and CEO of bitfly blockchain, explained: "I do think it is a strange thing to risk your life to use a seal. Now it is It is a good time for Japanese society to rethink whether our society really needs seals. So, what other options are there? ”

Of course, the Japanese government’s promotion of the digitization of contracts and seals has been brewing for some time. A March 2020 survey conducted by JIPDEC and ITR, a non-profit organization and research firm, found that only about 40% of Japanese companies have begun to digitize contracts, and that smaller private companies are more active in promoting digitization.

In contrast, as Seichi Monta points out in China and Japanese, throughout history, seals conveyed " Trust in character.”

In China, seals are a symbol of authority. In the late Han Dynasty, people wore seal badges around their waists to show their status. In 868 AD, when many Japanese began to use seals privately, the government at that time defined the role of seals in this way:

The purpose of using seals is to gain trust and eliminate public or private suspicion of bad reputations.Behavioral Suspicion.

Taking the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (Tokyo Trial) in Japan after World War II as an example, the importance of seals to Japanese culture can be illustrated.

Puyi was the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty and became Japan's puppet emperor of Manchukuo from 1932 to 1945. He testified at the trial about Japan's responsibility for war crimes.

One of the evidentiary issues was determined by Major General Blakeney, the legal adviser of the U.S. Department of Defense, whether Puyi wrote the preface to his personal teacher Johnston's memoir "Twilight in the Forbidden City." Puyi said he had never seen the book before and insisted that someone else had written it. However, Puyi's two seals were there.

In the end, "Twilight in the Forbidden City" was not admitted into evidence at the trial. According to Monta, it was common sense that the Japanese interpreted the very existence of these two marks as evidence of the author's involvement. Monta concluded that Blakeney simply failed to understand the significance of the seal in Japanese culture.

There are two types of seals commonly used in Japan: private seals and registered seals. Private seals can be purchased at 100-yen discount stores everywhere. They can be used without registration and are easily forged. The registered seal must be certified by the local government. Important contracts such as purchasing a house require a registration seal.

In recent years, major banks in Japan have begun to launch services that do not require a seal. Including Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation's full adoption of digital signature authentication systems in 2018. Customers can digitally register their signatures, which include data on the strength and order of their signature strokes. This data is used to confirm identity, eliminating the need to carry a seal with you for procedures such as opening a bank account.

The more radical technology giants advocate the use of distributed ledger technology, that is, blockchain applications to replace seals.

But Blockhive founder Hikaru Kusaka explained that blockchain can be used to create trust without relying on a specific central entity. "A digital signature with a digital identity can ensure the security of a personal identity, which is something that a seal cannot do. Even a registered seal can only go so far."

Moreover, the seal itself cannot Proof that the person using the seal is the owner. It's like having a key to a house; holding a key is different than proving ownership of a home. A CEO might give her seal to her sales team, who might use the CEO's seal to sign contracts.

In contrast, digital signatures and identities using cryptography can prove the identity of the signer and even prove ownership through the use of a private key. In Estonia, people already sign documents and contracts digitally using private keys.

Kusaka Hikaru emphasized, “Blockchain guarantees that nothing can be deleted. It is tamper-proof and canProving the truth in legal actions. ”

Of course, considering that Japan’s seals have been a symbol of conveying trust for centuries, if blockchain is to successfully replace seals, apart from the promotion of crises such as the COVID-19 epidemic, it may not be enough, even if There are still problems at the private, unregistered contract level, the user interface, and the cultural level.

In an aging society like Japan, it is necessary to promote the public's acceptance of the ever-changing blockchain technology and establish an understanding of the new Trusting technology is not easy. In addition, Japanese people are often very proud of their "craftsman culture". Eliminating seals will not only change the user experience, but for many people may give up their connection with Japanese history.

< p> In the eyes of the outside world, Japanese companies’ fax machines and official seals can be said to be symbols of Japanese companies’ traditional and conservative culture.

A Japanese government study last year found that almost every Japanese company and One-third of Japanese households still use fax machines - a technology that began in the 1980s - in large part for communication.

However, more than half a year into the pandemic, After the advent of remote working, more and more Japanese have discovered that the annoying crowded commute, the rigid office political atmosphere, and the inefficiency of old-school organizations will all have to change one by one.

Same as China or South Korea, which have East Asian cultures, are pushing social innovation further in the digital age. Whether it is seal or fax machine culture, they will become a thing of the past; and will blockchain become an innovation battlefield for Japanese "craftsmen"? What?

IV Re-understanding the blockchain: Enlightenments brought by more than 1,550 application cases

Author: Ran Wei

(This article is excerpted from the "2021 Global Blockchain Application Market Report")

When we talk about blockchain, anyone who knows something about blockchain can Related topics more or less express some of their own opinions. For example: from the perspective of technical system, blockchain is a new application of computer technology such as distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm; from the perspective of functional attributes Look, blockchain has the characteristics of decentralization, non-tampering, full traces, traceability, collective maintenance, openness and transparency.

Looking back at the history of blockchain, there is no way around Bitcoin. 2009 On January 3, 2009, the Bitcoin genesis block with serial number 0 was born. A few days later, on January 9, 2009, the Bitcoin block with serial number 1 was born. When the two blocks are connected, The blockchain was "born out of nowhere."

The inventor of Bitcoin, whose pseudonym is "Satoshi Nakamoto", may have a hard time imagining it: In the past 12 years, with Bitcoin as the center, a The huge "cryptocurrency family" has set off a turmoil in the global financial market that continues toToday’s “big wave”. During this period, innovation and risks related to cryptocurrency are intertwined, progress and bubbles coexist, and pursuit and criticism coexist, and it drives government departments of various countries to continuously improve the monetary and financial systems, social governance and supervision systems.

At the same time, the blockchain that accompanies Bitcoin is also evolving rapidly, and has long gone beyond the scope of "Bitcoin's underlying technology" and has been applied to every corner of social and economic development.

So, what mechanism does blockchain work through? What are its advantages compared to traditional technologies and models? What is its application effect? In the "2021 Global Blockchain Application Market Report" jointly released by Capital Lab and Yuanwang Think Tank, we tried to provide a certain basis for the above issues through research on more than 1,550 application cases around the world in 2020 and the first quarter of 2021. Empirical answer. At the same time, based on the study of these cases, we can establish a new understanding of blockchain: blockchain is trust, blockchain is sharing, blockchain is transaction, blockchain is substitution, and blockchain is efficiency.

In the Bitcoin creation paper "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Currency System", "Satoshi Nakamoto" repeatedly emphasized that Bitcoin has the characteristics of not relying on a "trusted third party". That is the characteristic of “decentralization”.

On the other hand, the underlying technology of Bitcoin, the blockchain, is precisely designed for "trust." In other words, reshaping "trust" in the digital age is the most basic function of the blockchain, but this trust has been transformed from trust between people and legal entities to trust between machines and machines. Trust between blocks and between nodes. Interestingly, the subsequent “smart contract” function has further strengthened this trust through its integration with the blockchain.

Identity coding and authentication are the first steps to achieve the above-mentioned trust mechanism, and the distributed identity (Decentralized Identity, DID) system is the core of it. With DID applications, everyone from individuals to organizations to IoT devices, from physical items to virtual products, can be given digital "identities" and achieve trusted interactions. It is precisely because of this that blockchain-based certificate storage, empowerment, verification, circulation, and transactions can be realized, and only then can blockchain be implemented in various industries.

Application cases from around the world show that new trust mechanisms provide new rules and motivation for social and economic operations:

l China is comprehensively promoting blockchain electronic certificates Applications such as "one fish, one code", "one fruit, one code", "one tea, one code" and other applications are driving the global Anti-counterfeiting traceability of agricultural products and upgrading of food safety system;

l Through the combination of blockchain, big data and artificial intelligence, the credit "portrait" of an enterprise is more accurate, and it can obtain faster and lower-cost financing services;

l Charity organizations have put donations on the chain to form a more transparent and standardized charity tracking and management system;

l Relevant cities in China have launched a blockchain-based gas cylinder product traceability management system , the credibility of the source of gas cylinder file information and the level of gas cylinder safety management have been greatly improved;

l Germany is establishing a digital registration system based on identity authentication for its distributed energy assets to promote the development of renewable energy and transactions, and respond to the advent of the digital energy era….

Among the three types of blockchains (public chain, alliance chain, private chain), alliance chain has been the most widely used. In addition to considerations of technical performance, operational efficiency, operability, expected results, etc., this is mainly because all parties in the alliance already have a certain foundation of trust. This also shows from another perspective that in blockchain applications beyond cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, "multi-centralization" rather than complete "decentralization" is a more realistic option.

In addition, it is undeniable that unlike the proof-of-work mechanism that Bitcoin “mining” relies on, the blockchain cannot completely ensure the integrity of the on-chain data from the source in the actual application process. Authenticity. In other words, a certain alliance member or node may provide false data intentionally or unintentionally. However, with the help of blockchain's non-tampering, traceability, multi-party consensus and other characteristics, the alliance can identify counterfeiting behavior and impose corresponding punishments, such as "kicking" the counterfeiting members from the node. Therefore, in a sense, blockchain-based trust largely establishes alliance members’ awe for the authenticity of data and deters data fraud.

If "trust" is the foundation of blockchain applications, data sharing is the core of blockchain applications. Without data sharing, there will be no cooperation, and the practical application of blockchain will be impossible.

l The State Administration of Foreign Exchange's "Cross-border Financial Blockchain Service Platform" pilot has been fully launched, promoting foreign trade exports through information exchange between foreign exchange bureaus, taxation, banks and enterprise-related market entities. Business development;

l The "Insurance/Claims Alliance Chain" jointly established by 11 insurance companies in Taiwan has been put into operation, and each company has achieved "single application and common documents" on this platform;

l Blockchain platforms such as Contour and TradeLens are reshaping the global supply chain and providing impetus for the digital transformation of international trade through data collaboration among enterprises, financial institutions, shipping companies, terminals, customs and other institutions... .

l In China, various government departments adopt digitalThrough the "Judicial Chain" platform, all kinds of electronic evidence can be integrated with notarization, arbitration, judicial The seamless connection between forensic institutions, courts and other judicial institutions improves the efficiency of the judicial system while reducing costs;

l The "cross-domain collaboration mechanism for trial auxiliary matters" for grassroots courts across the country can realize the goal of courts in different regions The "cross-domain delivery and cross-domain evidence collection" between them has effectively improved the efficiency of trial auxiliary matters and the quality and efficiency of trials, and reduced judicial operation costs...

l China's "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Combination Port" project was officially launched, which can support the interconnection and interoperability of trade parties among the five major customs jurisdictions of the Greater Bay Area and become the first connected port in the Greater Bay Area , customs, logistics, enterprise, finance and other trade processes, interconnected and shared blockchain network;

l Japan's KDDI Telecom, Hitachi, Kansai Electric Power, Sekisui Construction and other large enterprises have established blocks Chain Alliance NEXCHAIN ​​to form a cross-industry real estate information sharing and management model and promote cross-industry innovation;

l The French Renault Group completed the test of its blockchain project "XCEED" for zero Sharing compliance information between component suppliers and automakers and simplifying compliance certification….

Although the above application cases in finance, government affairs and various industries are only a few typical cases, they are enough to illustrate that: on the one hand, data sharing is an inherent requirement of blockchain applications. In terms of specific implementation, everything must start from breaking "data islands" and "information asymmetry"; on the other hand, the application practice of blockchain has in turn promoted cross-level, cross-department, cross-industry, cross-region, and cross- Data sharing and unprecedented cooperation across national borders.

It can also be seen from the above cases that based on the transparency, security, trustworthiness and other characteristics of the blockchain, data sharing allows cooperation that originally seemed impossible to be achieved, and more Open innovation results; data sharing can effectively improve the operating efficiency of business systems, financial systems and social governance systems; various organizations promote their own organizational changes and process changes while sharing and cooperating with external institutions.

Based on trust and sharing, "transaction" is the most intuitive and deepest manifestation of the value of blockchain applications. Currently, blockchain is opening a new chapter in the transformation of transaction models in various industries around the world.

From the perspective of functional architecture, blockchain-based transactions are by no means just a change in the transaction process. Instead, they integrate various unique functions of the blockchain. Integrated integration of blockchain applications such as logistics, payment/settlement, supply chain financing, insurance, and network security.

From the perspective of application form, blockchain-based transactionsYi transcends the traditional concept of product or service transactions and represents the realization of a broader value of data in circulation.

From the perspective of application scenarios, transactions based on blockchain involve the upgrading of the physical industry, the digital advancement of the financial industry, and the innovative application of the "token economy".

In the physical industry, take the application of agricultural blockchain as an example: on the one hand, supply chain traceability based on blockchain has become an important barrier to food safety; but on the other hand, for growers or For farmers, the supply chain traceability function is far from enough. How to help them expand the sales of agricultural products and obtain more income as much as possible is the "hard truth" for blockchain technology to continue to promote agricultural development. In other industries, the same applies.

Against the above background, new trading platforms in the global physical industry continue to emerge:

l The Indian government uses blockchain platforms to help farmers in remote areas sell agricultural products to reduce the While eliminating intermediate fees, obtain higher income;

l The Swiss company Cerealia builds a blockchain-based agricultural product trading and financing platform to promote the export of agricultural products in emerging market countries around the world;

l Nanjing Iron and Steel completed the transaction with Rio Tinto of Australia and Vale of Brazil respectively. An iron ore transaction based on blockchain was completed;

l Baosteel Co., Ltd. and Rio Tinto of Australia completed the first RMB cross-border settlement transaction based on blockchain...

Of course, while blockchain promotes the advancement of financial transaction business, dark sides such as hype, scams, money laundering, and cyber attacks related to blockchain and cryptocurrency continue to follow. How to continue to promote financial innovation while also carrying out efficient risk prevention and control and effectively cracking down on illegal crimes is an important issue that requires long-term response. From a global perspective, China has responded with clear attitudes, strict measures, and effective measures in this regard.

The transaction changes realized by the blockchain in the real industry and financial industry are only the initial stage of the blockchain changing the traditional transaction method. The "Token Economy" is the blockchain "transaction" A higher level of functionality.

Under the framework of the "token economy", from electronic certificates to skill certificates, from credit records to public welfare activity participation records, from social media tracks to carbon emission reduction actions, when various data become When an encrypted digital proof of rights is circulated and exchangeable, it is given the function of "token".

Regardless of the investment/speculation craze of "Non-Fungible Token (NFT)", we can already see many early applications of "token economy" around the world:

l The HotCity project supported by the Austrian government uses a crowdsourcing model combined with blockchain and gamification tokens to encourage residents to submit heating waste heat hotspots to meet urban heating needs more efficiently;< br />
l Ford establishes "Green Miles" for commercial and municipal fleets using hybrid vehicles to help improve urban air quality;

l The blockchain reward platform MiL.k cooperates with Korean retailers to provide blockchain-based points management services for its members. Members can convert existing points into local MLK tokens through the MiL.k platform, or exchange them into other third-party points...

As can be seen from the above cases and more, the "token economy" has several distinctive features:

The "token economy" gives assets to a wider range of data Attributes and tradable attributes, and through cross-domain and cross-platform mutual trust and circulation, can improve the operating efficiency of the entire social and economic system;

"Token economy" is a new value creation and The realization process does not necessarily use currency directly as the medium of exchange, but is more reflected in the exchange, mutual benefit and reallocation of various elements and resources;

"Token economy" is often combined with incentive mechanisms. At the same time, through incentives for "good people and good deeds", "good companies" and "good institutions", the social value system and social credit system will be effectively reshaped.

Generally speaking, the "token economy" will spawn new production factors, reshape production relations, and greatly liberate social productivity; the "token economy" represents the direction of the "information Internet" The evolution of the "Internet of Value" indicates the most exciting future of the digital economy; the "token economy" based on the blockchain has begun to take shape and has begun to bring changes to economic operations, social governance, and everyone's lifestyle. Continuously visible change. All types of institutions and individuals should be mentally and physically prepared for this change.

Like other new technologies, in the process of application and popularization, blockchain continues to produce substitution effects in terms of platforms, media, models, methods, etc.: physical documents are replaced by electronic documents, and credit records are replaced by electronic documents. Tokens are replaced, manual review is replaced by data verification, and the city management platform is replaced by the "city brain"...

Such substitutions have become the norm:

l Argentina’s central bank has begun a proof-of-concept for a new blockchain clearing system, which may replace the existing clearing system;< br />
l Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation (KOMSCO) expands blockchain digital gift certificate business to replace paper gift certificates and increase the issuance of banknotes and coinsWhile experiencing a significant decline, record revenue increased;

l Courts across China have begun to use blockchain electronic seals to replace traditional paper seals in the enforcement of real estate seizures;

l The Shanghai court system is exploring the use of digital trial records to replace manual trial transcripts through the adoption of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain;

l The Japanese company SUSMED launched "Using Blockchain Technology" "Clinical Data Monitoring System Demonstration" pilot, indicating that the necessary monitoring processes in clinical trials of drugs or medical equipment can be replaced by blockchain systems;

l Alipay and Wukong Car Rental cooperate to launch "face-swiping" car rental Service, through blockchain technology and credit-free model, tourists can rent a car by simply "swiping their face" and return the vehicle through mobile phone operations;

l Under the new crown epidemic, local governments in China Intensive launch of "non-face-to-face, no-contact, zero-legacy" government services combined with blockchain technology has replaced traditional offline service methods and provided remote bidding, "cloud" customs clearance, financial support, and resumption of work and production during the epidemic. It provides a strong guarantee for the smooth progress of the work...

In addition, we can also see that through the use of blockchain technology, various enterprise-level services are also realizing substitution and evolution: from paper contracts to electronic contracts, to program-based, Blockchain contracts that can automatically execute smart contracts. Blockchain is pushing contract signing into the era of "chain signing"; from offline human resources companies to online human resources platforms to the blockchain-based human resources market , global human resources services have experienced continuous changes from the 1.0 era to the 2.0 era, and then to the 3.0 era.

Generally speaking, when the blockchain "invades" various industries, it will "mercilessly" delete all unnecessary links and processes, all unnecessary manual operations, and accelerate the The era of paperless, unmanned and automated is coming.

In the process of our analysis of more than 1,550 blockchain application cases around the world, words like "improve", "accelerate", "shorten", "lower", "reduce", "save", " Words such as "save" appear frequently in front of our eyes. These words show that the improvement of efficiency is the common pursuit of all parties involved in blockchain applications and is also the most direct result of the substitution effect of blockchain.

Numerous application practices are contributing to this:

l Kenyan company Shamba Records provides blockchain traceability, transaction and financing services to farmers in the country, currently covering more than 6,000 Small farmers and helped them increase their income by at least 40%;

l TradeW, a blockchain trading platform invested by NTT DATA, Mitsubishi and other companiesaltz has completed a trial run, and the results show that the platform can reduce the workload of traditional trade processes by up to 50%;

l Walmart Canada uses the application of the DL Freight blockchain platform to connect it with carriers Invoice disputes have been significantly reduced by 97%;

l The State Grid Corporation of China’s power transaction certificate traceability inquiry platform has been put into operation, automating the entire authenticity review process for registered users and saving 99% of trustworthy Manual review time;

l COSCO Shipping Lines and Shandong Port Group Qingdao Port have cooperated to launch a blockchain paperless import and delivery model, which can save customers nearly 24 hours on average per container in picking up goods;< br />
l Zhejiang Taizhou uses the "Internet of Things + Blockchain" recycling system to solve the problem of marine pollution control. Compared with traditional treatment methods, this recycling system can save 94% of labor costs and 84% of operating costs... ….

In summary, through the joint action of trust mechanism, sharing mechanism and transaction mechanism, blockchain has formed an obvious substitution effect, improved the operational efficiency of finance, government affairs and various industries, and will Continue to create systemic change. This change is reshaping the relationship between people and machines, people and society, and people and the environment, and clearly points to three ultimate goals: efficiency, well-being, and environmental protection.

Ⅳ After Japan, another big country will recognize Bitcoin as legal!

According to data from OKCoin, the price of Bitcoin climbed to its highest level of 7,357 yuan in the past two weeks on April 12, with the highest increase in three weeks reaching 691 yuan, accounting for 10.3%. On the whole, there is an obvious upward trend.

The reason is that OKCoin analysts believe that it is mainly driven by two major positive events. In terms of short-term news, first of all, Russia's attitude towards Bitcoin has undergone a major reversal. Foreign media said that at some point next year the Russian government may recognize its use as a legal financial instrument. Secondly, China’s Bitcoin ecosystem is maturing day by day, and the correct form of regulation will undoubtedly promote the long-term healthy development of the industry.

According to OKCoin, the Russian government may recognize next year that Bitcoin, the world’s most popular digital currency, will be used as a legal financial instrument. Some analysts pointed out that this means a major change in the Russian government’s regulatory attitude.

Time Attitude

In early 2016, the Russian Presidential Advisor: Accepting Bitcoin payments is a criminal act

In March the central bank is likely to start considering legalizing Bitcoin Coin and regulation of Bitcoin transactions

In May Russia is planning to create its own cryptocurrency while banning the use of all other cryptocurrencies

In July the law will still prohibit the use of Bitcoin in the country , but will treat Bitcoin as a foreign currency

In August, Russia’s first Bitcoin exchange was established, and usersBitcoin can be sold to exchanges, but purchase services are not supported

In September, the Russian Ministry of Finance announced that it was not in a hurry to launch a draft law on Bitcoin

In October, Russia’s Deputy Finance Minister stated that Bitcoin Will not pose a threat to the public

According to the above content, OKCoin staff said that the main reason for the Russian official’s major reversal of Bitcoin is actually to promote the development of blockchain companies, and also Only after seeing the revolutionary potential of blockchain technology did we make more positive changes. There is no doubt that cryptocurrencies will give the Russian Central Bank more control, and tracking cryptocurrencies may become a new weapon for Russian banks in anti-money laundering.

Russian Deputy Finance Minister Alexey Moiseev said in an interview with foreign media that the authorities hope to recognize Bitcoin and other encrypted digital currencies in 2018 in order to strengthen the crackdown on illegal transfers.

Similarly, Russian news agencies revealed that the central bank is working closely with the government to jointly establish the legal status of digital currencies. Alexey Moiseev pointed out, “The government needs to know who is standing on both sides of the capital chain at all times.

In fact, in April this year, the Japanese government took the lead in recognizing the legal status of Bitcoin. The Japanese Cabinet Pass the bill to recognize that virtual currencies such as Bitcoin have "property-like value" and can be used for payments and digital transactions.

OKCoin analysts believe that regulators' recognition of emerging things will generally go through the following processes Stages: closed - liberalized - free development - standardized development. Since the second half of 2016, the Japanese government seems to have accelerated this recognition process of Bitcoin. Not only has it proposed to cancel the consumption tax on Bitcoin, but it has also given Bitcoin Legal identity: a new method of payment. At this point, Russia, as a neighboring country, may recognize the legal status of Bitcoin.

China’s Bitcoin ecosystem is maturing

China is an example. In recent years, China has increased its supervision of Bitcoin trading and mining. In March, after the People’s Bank of China issued new guidelines, China’s three major Bitcoin exchanges suspended Bitcoin withdrawals.

< p> Charles Hayter, CEO of Bitcoin data and analysis provider CryptoCompare, said that in addition to the above-mentioned regulatory news, China-based OKCoin announced on Tuesday that it has officially updated its anti-money laundering and so-called "know your customer" policies.

Relevant people from OKCoin said that China’s Bitcoin ecosystem is becoming increasingly mature, and correct forms of supervision will undoubtedly promote the long-term healthy development of the industry. As China’s largest digital asset trading platform, OKCoin is embracing regulation and Particularly active in compliance operations. Great progress has been made in the security and stability of platform transactions.

Similarly, we believe that Bitcoin has become the first to gain widespread recognition with the blockchain technology behind it. Digital currency because of blockchain technologyAbility to track and verify every transaction. In particular, the application of blockchain technology in the financial field continues to advance, promoting the value discovery of Bitcoin based on blockchain as the underlying technology, and also increasing investors' confidence in Bitcoin, thus bringing long-term benefits to the currency price.

However, we also remind investors to invest rationally and diversify their investments according to personal risk preferences. OKCoin’s user data shows that, like the stock trading market, China’s Bitcoin investors are still mainly retail investors, and it is easy to chase the rise and kill the fall. However, the types of traders on the platform are also relatively comprehensive, including long-term holding and short-term traders. Experienced investors prefer to diversify their investments and use Bitcoin as part of their asset portfolio. It is rare that Bitcoin is the only investment product.

It is also worth mentioning that China lacks specialized investment service institutions similar to mature markets such as the United States, which to some extent makes investors’ daily transactions more frequent. These are caused by currency price fluctuations. important reason.

Ⅶ How to explain blockchain in a popular way

"Blockchain technology is considered to be the next generation of disruptive core after steam engines, electricity, and the Internet. Technology. If steam engines have unleashed people’s productivity, electricity has solved people’s basic living needs, and the Internet has completely changed the way information is transmitted, then blockchain, as a machine that builds trust, will likely completely change the way value is transmitted in the entire human society. ."

I have just come into contact with the blockchain. There are too many basic knowledge that need to be understood and known. Don't worry, today I will popularize this knowledge for you. . Today, let’s first take a look at what public chains, private chains, alliance chains, and side chains are.

1. Existing network requirements

01

Military network requirements

Mesh network was applied to wireless access networks in 2002. Its point-to-multipoint network topology can solve problems such as network-free communication, fast mobile communication, timely communication, and information confidentiality in military scenarios.

INE Mesh can be used to integrate various military service resources and assist the military in unified command and joint operations. Provide the military with temporary networking, communication command and logistics support wireless network services required for camps, exercises and wartime. Achieve unified command and coordination across different military functional units.

02

Private network for civilian use

The first application of wireless mesh networks was in community access networks. In Japan, Nankoku City has used Mesh networks to connect 13 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 18 municipal buildings. In Finland, Nokia's wireless router products can be installed on rooftops and have been favored by more than 50 operators.

At present, most domestic users are deploying Mesh networks. The application solutions involve wireless cities, intelligent transportation, manufacturing and energy, public safety, medical and health, education, residential areas and hotels, temporary networks, etc. etc., the application scenarios are extremely broad. The INE Mesh network has been tested in hotels, public security, temporary networking, manufacturing and energy. The network connection is very smooth, and monitoring is convenient and free of lags.

03

World without network communication

Network-free communication actually covers two levels. One is internal communication in areas without network, and the other is building communication systems in areas without network in the world. The market demand for the latter is huge.

According to surveys, in countries or regions with relatively backward economic development (especially the third world), 57% of the world's people (about 4 billion people) do not have access to the Internet, and are in a completely "no network" situation. "status. 50% of the population already has access to the Internet, but the remaining 50% have long and difficult access to the Internet. In these countries or regions, it is impossible to complete the construction of expensive wired network infrastructure. In contrast, the main goal of wireless Mesh networks is to achieve "last mile" broadband access and provide high-speed data coverage with lower network deployment and maintenance costs.

As of the end of December 2018, INE has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Philippines, which symbolizes that the third world countries represented by the Philippines will have a huge market for the INE Mesh network.

2. Potential network blue ocean

Wireless Mesh network is also called "community" "Wireless Network" has become a new, cheap and efficient network structure solution for realizing the next generation of wireless Internet.

AI, Internet of Things, AR sensors, 5G and other technologies spawned in the digital era, as well as the decentralized technology of blockchain, are calling for a more diversified network system, thereby solving the traditional network system’s impact on technology. development constraints.

Kaixiang Zhang, chief architect of WeBank, believes that distributed network is an important implementable application project in the blockchain industry. The current blockchain development is mainly concentrated in the financial industry, and there is huge space in decentralized networks.

3. Already leading the implementation of blockchain distributed network

01

Launched IPFS mining machine

INE has reached a strategic cooperation with Zhongke Huichen, a smart mining equipment hardware manufacturer. In terms of the distributed storage system mining machine IPFS, the distributed network, that is, the technological combination of Mesh, has been opened up. The first phase of 100,000 IPFS+Mesh concept mining machines has been delivered gradually since October 2018.

02

Floor-standing wireless charging

INE and Dianzan Technology - its terminal scenarios have been signed with 7-Eleven, Family and other first-tier convenience stores across the country, and the wireless charging hardware embedded with Mesh network technology modules has entered the mass production period.

03

Implementing smart communities

INE has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Shawei Community in Futian District, Shenzhen, and will use the INE Mesh network as the underlying network system to build smart communities. The community consensus has designated 40 residential buildings as pilot projects for INE Mesh equipment.

04

Unique landing scene

At the Qingdao Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in 2018, we solved the data security and network connection problems at the conference site, ensured the security of the surrounding monitoring network, and prevented the leakage of confidential data.

Information distribution and outfield network security monitoring of the 2018 WPMF World Professional Muay Thai Federation China Division VenuesWe provide control services and provide immediate control at the event site to prevent emergencies when crowds of people are crowded and take timely measures.

05

Implement traditional physical factory

INE has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Henan Nanyang Niannian Food Co., Ltd. Based on the Mesh network, it will create the integration of blockchain industry + traditional physical industry and build a blockchain distributed network factory; and based on the blockchain spirit, create a distributed business system.

06

Landing in the Third World

The IntelliShare Foundation signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Philippine ASYA Pacific Foundation, Asian Premier Institution, and Malayan Pacific Power Holdings Corporation (MPPH). INE Mesh technology will support the IoT network and network security of the Philippine petroleum industry, the low-cost network coverage and emergency network of the Philippine communications industry, and the island network ecology of the Philippine Islands.

Landing is just the beginning

For blockchain projects, implementation is just the beginning, and the ecosystem that is constantly built based on this is the most important part.

This ecology must have technical support, perfectly integrate the blockchain’s token economic model, be feasible for implementation, and have a broad market. Adhering to this concept and original intention, INE Intelligent Ecology still forges ahead even in the bear market, and gathers the consensus of all members of the community to wait for the dawn and tomorrow.
