① Where are the application scenarios of blockchain?

One of the most important reasons why blockchain is questioned is that there are no practical application scenarios and ordinary people cannot see it. to possible value. So in the eyes of these experts, where are the application scenarios of blockchain most likely to appear?

Shuai Chu, founder of Quantum Chain, said: The evolution of the entire blockchain technology is still in its early stages, just like the Internet era 20 years ago. At that time, we could not have imagined that applications like Uber would appear on the Internet. The development of technology has given everyone richer diversity, and possibilities are the future.

Zeng Ming, Provost of Hupan University, gave several possible answers based on the technical characteristics of blockchain:

1. Blockchain is the most important The advantage is a transparent, immutable, distributed ledger. Some areas have never been covered by the Internet, such as acceptance bills.

2. Another big advantage of blockchain, from the perspective of smart contracts, is that it is possible to form more efficient network collaboration at the point-to-point level. Such as crowdfunding.

3. In the field of innovation, blockchain will definitely be closely integrated with the development of the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and other fields, including cloud computing, edge computing, etc.

② Will blockchain subvert BAT

The Internet has been called the "classical Internet", and it seems that blockchain will soon replace it. The anxiety has changed the mentality of Internet practitioners, and now they still have to worry about BAT.

In a conversation, Cai Wensheng, founder of Meitu Xiuxiu, asked Zeng Ming: BAT is currently not making any big moves (in terms of blockchain). Is it because of policy reasons or because it feels that the time has not come yet for blockchain to be implemented? Woolen cloth?

All discussions cannot avoid these three issues. For example, if someone wants to ask whether ICO is a scam, they should first discuss the value and significance of virtual currency, then understand the possibility of project success, and finally look at the prospects of the industry. Even the most insightful scholars are not guaranteed to give the correct answer. At this time, the exchange of opinions becomes particularly valuable.

③ What are the serious harms of the overseas introduced blockchain and Bitcoin ICO

There are three concepts that have been hyped recently: blockchain, Bitcoin, and ICO.

One is the blockchain, which is the blockchain that "those who follow it will prosper, those who go against it will perish" in the internal letter leaked by Xu Xiaoping;

The other is the blockchain that has been hyped for several years. In the past year, the price has continued to rise and fall, but some people have been advocating that "each Bitcoin will rise to 10,000 US dollars";

Another one is a few months ago, Xue Manzi vigorously cheered and advocated, and later ICOs that have received strong attention from regulatory authorities. Just the night before yesterday, January 12, the China Internet Finance Association issued an announcement titled "Risk Tips on Preventing Disguised ICO Activities", which named the digital currency "LinkTo" (formerly "Wankebi") released by Xunlei. ),It said that it "replaces the legal currency payment obligation for the services contributed by participants. It is essentially a financing behavior and a disguised ICO." As soon as this news came out, Xunlei's stock price fell sharply in early trading on Friday, US time.

“Bitcoin” doesn’t solve any problems?

Let’s talk about Bitcoin. Xiao Tao has always been a bearer of Bitcoin, because in Xiao Tao’s view, Bitcoin does not solve any new problems. In other words, what would the world lose if there were no Bitcoin today? Who and which transactions will be affected? The answer is that no one is affected except very special people. What are the advantages of Bitcoin compared to existing currencies? Is the currency value stable? Anti-counterfeiting? low cost? …

The decentralization promoted by Bitcoin is nothing more than evading supervision. It's just like the exchange of goods between the two countries originally had to go through the customs. The customs has eight channels. Now you have built an underground channel. Although the distance may be shorter and a lot of tariffs may be exempted, it is illegal and illegal. It is a typical arbitrage behavior that evades supervision. Solving one's own problems at the expense of social interests and order is undesirable and unsustainable.

What's more, the huge amount of "mining" work invested in obtaining Bitcoin consumes a lot of electricity and computer computing power without creating any value. It is a huge waste of social resources. It is said that Now the cost of mining one Bitcoin has reached 3,000 to 4,000 US dollars...

"ICO" is a typical Ponzi scheme!

As for ICOs, IPOs of projects that claim to use digital currency as a medium are based on their own hot concepts and have ideas that are not ready to be realized at all, or ideas whose feasibility is almost invisible, relying on a kind of escape Using a regulated digital currency to let everyone buy it and spread the word to speculate on the price... This is a typical Ponzi scheme, or a disguised casino.

There are many such cases in history. A few years ago, someone divided a random painting into thousands or tens of thousands of shares, and put a price on it for everyone to buy and speculate; hundreds of years ago, the Dutch were crazy about speculation. Tulips, the price of a tulip can buy a castle... Everyone knows that this is a bubble, and everyone knows that the bubble will burst, but everyone hopes to beggar their neighbor, hoping to make a fortune before the bubble bursts.

< p>④ What are the application scenarios of blockchain

On Oracle’s website, ten types of industry application scenarios of blockchain are listed

Including finance, production, education, media, entertainment, government, retail commerce, health, medical care, supply chain, insurance, and public utilities. Isn’t it very noble? But what I want to say is these application scenarios. In the face of truly high-powered blockchain applications, these application scenarios can only hide in the corner and tremble.

Nowadays, the truly high-powered application scenario of blockchain is Ponzi application, commonly known as "Ponzi scheme". It is a smart contract type Qianbao, a blockchain game with rolling deposits and withdrawals, an ICO for transaction purposes, and a global communication platform.Pension platform used.

Ponzi scheme is one of the oldest application scenarios of our mankind. After the emergence of the Internet, Ponzi scheme has been upgraded to "Internet +", that is, "Internet + Ponzi scheme". The Internet empowers Ponzi schemes, so events like Qianbao's tens of billions occurred. Before the Internet era, there were few Ponzi schemes of this scale. Empowered by the Internet, deposits and withdrawals were made through mobile APPs, and finally rolled In a few years, it has reached a scale of tens of billions.

The Internet has broken down geographical restrictions, physical restrictions, capital flow restrictions, and communication restrictions. As long as you have a mobile phone, you can play the Qianbao APP. Everyone participates, everyone deposits money, and everyone withdraws money. The number of people involved in the case is said to be in the millions. Relatively speaking, it is still an online pyramid scheme (Ponzi scheme 1.0), every day. The brainwashing cannot be stopped during meetings, and violent and illegal means are used, which is simply too weak. With the rise of blockchain technology, Ponzi schemes empowered by "blockchain+" can no longer be described as becoming more powerful than a tiger. It is simply like a chicken becoming a tiger. Like the Internet, "Blockchain+" technology has truly improved application scenarios. Ponzi schemes have further upgraded on the second generation basis of "Internet+". Because of major breakthroughs in scenario enhancements and improvements, they have become Ponzi Scheme 3.0. , its characteristics are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Decentralization, no leadership. The smart contract of the blockchain runs automatically, does not require human intervention, and cannot be interrupted by humans. Code rules are hard-coded and cannot be tampered with. In terms of scene improvement, it has solved the biggest pain point of Ponzi schemes for thousands of years, that is, the problem of the leader running away. Because the leader is a program and a code, the blockchain program can exist permanently and no one can delete it. I think this is the biggest breakthrough. This virtual leader is always there. He cannot run away, will not run away, and will not change. The rules will never change, and he will adhere to the Ponzi line for one hundred, one thousand, and ten thousand years. Some people may say that smart contracts can be iterated and can also be manipulated to leave backdoors. That's right, but it can also be done without iteration. Even if it is iterated, it will be transparent and visible, and it will be clear at a glance if there is a backdoor. This is the characteristic of blockchain smart contracts. If you cheat on it, it is equivalent to taking out cheat sheets under the nose of the teacher. No one will participate in such a smart contract once it is online. Therefore, after technical review and verification, there are no backdoors, fair rules, and irrevocable smart contracts, which can be implemented using blockchain technology. Such reliability, once verified, remains unchanged forever. This is the certainty of smart contracts. For a program, even one character of the code remains unchanged. If it is run a million or a trillion times, the result will be consistent and deterministic.

2. Process transparency. The number of depositors, address account, amount, and time; the number of withdrawals, address account, amount, and time; all are visible. The blockchain has a public ledger function, which can be viewed by everyone around the world, and the ledger data viewed by everyone is exactly the same. Why did Qian Bao lose his position? Because we can't see his backend account, how much money goes in every day, how much money comes out, and the specific details of each transaction. In this wayYou can see the assessment of your ability to pay before making a deposit, and the result of this assessment is absolutely certain, that is, it will not change after you deposit.

3. Complete anonymity. If you have heard of zero-knowledge proof technology. You can skip this part. To put it simply, many of the things we had in the mathematical knowledge base in the past had no application scenarios after invention. Later, it was discovered that this knowledge is very useful for anonymization. The cryptography technology in the blockchain can effectively achieve identity concealment. As we all know, Zhihu cannot achieve true anonymity in terms of technical structure, but blockchain can.

4. The rules are open and fair to everyone. Deposit one yuan, and withdraw ten yuan as rebate. This rule applies to everyone and will never change. You deposit one dollar, and first withdraw money to the person in front of you, and then the person behind you deposits money, and then withdraws money to you. Fair, right? I have reflected on this many times and think it is still fair.

5. Sustainable iteration. In low-level Ponzi schemes, the leader, product designer, profit distributor, and benefit recipient are often four in one. However, in a blockchain Ponzi scheme, the four roles can be completely logically separated. Achieve sustainable iteration. Through social-based collaboration, these projects can be iterated on forever. There are now 400 senior engineers who are developing around Bitcoin and constantly updating the code. These people don’t need to know anyone. As long as the application is valuable, they can keep iterating. Which centralized project can do this? Even a BAT-level company cannot hire so many professionals scattered around the world. This iterative method of socialization is not affected by changes in a specific person or organization.

Ponzi schemes empowered by "blockchain" use blockchain technology in different scopes, because the technology in this field is still constantly being updated. Applications such as smart contracts are these two The years just add up. The earliest blockchain application is Bitcoin. Some people think that Bitcoin itself has the characteristics of a Ponzi scheme. In 2013, I wrote an answer that implicitly pointed out that this new type of Ponzi scheme will be very lethal because it has the characteristics of a Ponzi scheme. It has the characteristics of no leader, open ledgers, no escape, and open and fair rules. Later, I also discovered that many people around me were more interested in Ponzi schemes than in blockchain technology. Once they hear that Bitcoin is not a Ponzi scheme, they usually walk away silently before I start talking about blockchain technology. On the contrary, if you tell them that it is a Ponzi scheme, they will then ask where to buy it. ? Of course, there is a lot of controversy over whether Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme, because the actual application scenarios of Bitcoin are constantly expanding.

In the ICO craze, there are many air coins, which are fake Ponzi schemes and have no application scenarios. People who buy these air coins probably know that they are Ponzi schemes. , but seeing that the packaging was good, I bought it. There are estimated to be hundreds or thousands of such air coins. The scope of the cases involved spans the world, and the amount exceeds tens of billions. These ICOs use smart contracts for subscription and distribution, and then go to the secondary market on their own.circulation. In this case, withdrawals are not guaranteed, and some people may lose all their money. Many blockchain professionals have always wanted to draw a clear line between these applications, because although these air coins use part of blockchain technology, there is still a centralized organization or individual behind them, with very few network nodes, and users cannot deposit funds. At that time, it was directly aggregated to an organization or individual (and therefore would be swept away). However, there is no doubt that Aircoin still uses the blockchain for deposits and raising funds, which solves part of the problem of running away and increases the scope and scope of the Ponzi scheme. Communication ability. This is what happens objectively.

Since this year, with the advancement of technology, Ponzi schemes that use smart contracts to achieve more decentralization have begun to surface. Deposits and raises are locked using smart contracts to complete a complete closed loop of deposit, subscription and withdrawal. It can already be a very pure blockchain application. There are some blockchain games that can be openly admitted. After their release, they publicly claimed that they were a Ponzi game. He said: Look, the rules are transparent, the code is visible, and the deposit contract is Locked, no escape, no human intervention, automatic withdrawal. Play early and earn early. This is a crucial breakthrough, publicly admitting that you are a Ponzi scheme, which is something that Ponzi schemes 1.0 and 2.0 could not do before (they did not dare to openly admit that you are a Ponzi scheme). incredible. The gameplay is simple and crude.

This solves a major obstacle in the previous Ponzi scheme promotion process. In the past, it relied on brainwashing to win people's heads, but now it relies on code to speak for itself. You see, "This program won't run away on its own, right? There's no backdoor in it, right? Has the leader disappeared? Even if Satoshi Nakamoto is caught, it won't affect the continued execution of the program, right?" So the first batch of blockchain Ponzi schemes fell into the trap, right? What is important are coders who understand the code, and then these coders stand up and say that after technical verification, it is indeed such an effect, driving other people who do not read the code to join.

In addition to Ponzi scheme application scenarios involving entertainment, gambling, and fraud, blockchain also has opportunities to flex its muscles in Ponzi scheme application scenarios involving the national economy and people's livelihood, and public utilities, and can even be used extremely Dadi enhances people's sense of gain and happiness, and actually improves people's lives. For example, the application of national or global public pension platforms based on blockchain. Because this platform is based on blockchain, it can solve several major shortcomings of pension funds:

1. The problem of fund misappropriation. The ledger is open, and the funds are locked in a decentralized manner. No one can unlock it, except recipients who meet the rules and can withdraw funds. No possibility of appropriation.

2. Inflation problem. The current pension system adjusts coefficients every year based on a series of complex algorithms such as inflation. After adjustment, recipients are often dissatisfied because the total amount has increased, but their purchasing power has decreased. By taking advantage of the fact that virtual currency cannot be issued additionally, the inflation rate can be restrained and all the money received can be guaranteed to be real money.

3. Unpredictable problems. It is difficult for us to predict the pension withdrawal situation in 30 years, but it can be predicted in advance through smart contracts. Stimulate enthusiasm for payment.

4. Policy loopholes and fairnessquestion. Any pension policy targets diverse groups and there will be unfair situations. Everyone wants to pay less and get more, pay later and withdraw early. The transparency of the blockchain is down to each account, rather than a set of general policies that plug loopholes in the implementation process. Everyone is the same, pay more and get out more, pay early and get out early. It can even be inherited and never lost.

This greatly reduces the burden and cost of managing pensions by the state. Things that the existing pension system can do can still be done after using blockchain technology, such as state subsidies. Just put money into the contract, and it will be locked. There will be no fakes, such as forced payment, and every record will be true and traceable. All in all, all existing systems and rules can be put on the chain, which improves efficiency and output levels and ensures fairness without affecting the existing effects. Moreover, because the cost of the huge management system is reduced, everyone can receive The absolute number may increase a lot, which will have the effect of actually improving people's lives. Again, it will increase the sense of gain and happiness. In the matter of pensions, the subject of our trust has changed from a single national government to a national government + blockchain, and more than 50% of the process has become a fixed software program. Aren’t we more trusting in this way? If the on-chain pension system is 100% implemented, it can even break the national restrictions and be implemented by a piece of code that is honest, cannot cheat, and cannot be tampered with. Automatic deposits and automatic withdrawals. Trusting it is like trusting a dead person. There will be no mistakes.

The design of the next generation to support this generation is a great invention of our human evolution, which has accelerated the speed of social development. On the surface, it seems that the last generation on earth will suffer more, but in fact it is not. Yes, because the last generation of people on earth may not necessarily know that they are the last generation (maybe they know it in the last few seconds, but so what). What’s more, the earth has disappeared, does the last generation of people still need to withdraw funds for retirement? Obviously, no need.

The biggest disadvantage of a Ponzi scheme is that it runs away midway and the funds are broken. Blockchain has a clear technical solution to solve this problem, and it can also be proven and falsified, so , this technology is scientific. Once the disadvantages are eliminated and the benefits gradually emerge, the Ponzi scheme will achieve greater development in the future.

I also want to ask a question. In human history, are there any things that were originally negative or useless? Later, with the development of technology, the disadvantages were eliminated or avoided, and the functions were discovered. And then become more and more useful and important?

⑤ 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 there was an equal relationship between blockchain and Bitcoin., 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", and Tencent has launchedThe "Public Welfare Searching Chain" and so on were launched. 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 the benefits brought by blockchainIn 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 after obtaining high profits, they Retreat quickly. 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, among this huge data, there are some companies that join the blockchain ranks with the mentality of “getting a quick buck and leaving”, disrupting the normal development of blockchain in the market and further promoting 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 period. 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, with various capitals involved.Full 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" .

⑥ In order to seize this trend, Tong Liya and Gao Xiaosong joined the "3 o'clock sleepless" group, but Han Geng was kicked out

Recently, a "3 o'clock sleepless block" "Chain Group" (hereinafter referred to as the 3-point Sleepless Group) has become popular in the investment circle!

According to China Entrepreneur Magazine, big names in the investment circle such as Sequoia Capital Shen Nanpeng, 360 Chairman Zhou Hongyi, angel investors Cai Wensheng, Xue Manzi, etc. are all in this group, and even Gao Xiaosong, Tong Liya , Lin Yoona, Han Geng and other stars.

This WeChat group, created on February 11, reached the upper limit of 500 members in less than a day. During the Spring Festival, it is said that the total amount of red envelopes in this group reached one million. However, this is not the main motivation for celebrities and big shots to join the group. It is even forbidden to publish information such as currency speculation and ICO in this group. People in the group mainly learn about the application prospects of blockchain technology.

I noticed that according to the definition of "China's Blockchain Technology and Application Development White Paper" issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, blockchain is a computer technology such as distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, and encryption algorithm. Innovative application models in the Internet era.

Blockchain technology is considered to be a disruptive innovation in computing models after mainframes, personal computers, and the Internet. It is likely to cause a new technological innovation and industry on a global scale.change.

Today, with the price of Bitcoin “cutting in half” from its peak, and the strict supervision of countries such as China, the craze for “virtual currency” has begun to dissipate. However, as the underlying technology, blockchain is expected to be widely used in finance, supply chain management, manufacturing, Internet of Things and other fields in the future.

The group once distributed over one million red envelopes in seven days

The "3 O'clock Sleepless Blockchain Group" was originally founded by Yuhong on February 11. Yuhong had previously He is the main person in charge of 360 Games and is now the founder of SEEU & QYGAME, which launched the large-scale online game "Basic World" based on blockchain.

Since it was three o'clock in the morning when the group was first established, it was named the 3 O'clock Sleepless Blockchain Group.

In this WeChat group, known as the No. 1 blockchain information group, there are Sequoia Capital Shen Nanpeng, 360 Chairman Zhou Hongyi, angel investors Cai Wensheng, Xue Manzi, Fenbushi Capital partners Shen Bo, and even stars such as Gao Xiaosong, Tong Liya, Lin Yoona, and Han Geng.

Xue Manzi, Li Xiaolai, Chen Weixing, Shuai Chu and others are the earliest participants of the blockchain. Xue Manzi invested in Quantum Chain, Bytom Chain, and Mo Chain. Li Xiaolai is the first person in China to invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum. Chen Weixing also has his own fund and has invested in projects such as Huobi, Binance, and Tron. Shuai Chu is the founder of Quantum Chain.

Interestingly, the person who received the warmest welcome among those who joined the group was not the industry boss, but the film and television star Tong Liya. It is said that after Tong Liya was added to the group, there were hundreds of messages welcoming her to join. Tong Liya said that she is still a beginner in blockchain and hopes to learn more, and attached a big red envelope of 8,000 yuan.

Some inactive people in this group will be kicked out, such as Han Geng, No. 1 Matchmaker founder Mu Yan, Meitu CEO Wu Xinhong, etc. Those who remain in the group often engage in intense “mutual” discussions, and there are also some new members who are thirsty for knowledge and quickly absorb fresh knowledge about the blockchain.

On February 24, Chen Weixing in the group and Zhu Xiaohu, managing director of Jinshajiang Venture Capital, had a "mutual fight" around the blockchain.

The cause of the incident was that Zhu Xiaohu forwarded an article about blockchain in his circle of friends and said not to include him in various 3 o'clock groups. There are some outlets that he would rather miss and some money that he would rather not make. Otherwise, the late holiday will not be guaranteed.

This statement immediately aroused Chen Weixing's refutation. Chen Weixing asked, is the method of cutting leeks in equity investment more advanced than that in the currency circle? the whole districtIs the bubble in the blockchain industry as high as the global stock market bubble? Zhu Xiaohu responded that ICO, a model that tests human nature, has never been successful.

Don’t talk about currency speculation, just talk about blockchain

Yuhong and the first industry tycoons Xue Manzi and Chen Weixing to join the group jointly set rules in the group: It is strictly prohibited to post news about currency speculation, ICO, etc. in the group. Therefore, the main topic of group chat is the application of blockchain technology.

Guo Hongcai is a well-known figure in the currency circle. He doesn’t know much about blockchain technology, but he became a rich man through currency speculation. He was kicked out of the group for the second time because he said in the group, "I'm here to make money anyway. Talking about technology is really meaningless... The biggest application of blockchain is currency speculation." After being kicked out, Guo Hongcai was unconvinced and sulked in another group, "They never talk about making money, they are too vain."

China has always been at the forefront of regulating virtual currency speculation.

In September last year, China completely banned the domestic Bitcoin trading platform business. This regulation also has an impact on global Bitcoin transactions.

On February 5 this year, the People’s Daily published another article discussing “currency speculation” and believed that all countries should strengthen coordinated supervision to prevent systemic risks.

People's Daily stated that in recent times, various conferences and exchange activities with the themes of blockchain, digital assets, and virtual currencies have emerged one after another, and crazes such as "coin speculation" and "disguised ICO" have also emerged one after another. Some people join the "coin speculators", hoping to obtain huge returns through short-term speculation. Since blockchain and virtual currencies can transcend national boundaries, countries should strengthen coordinated supervision to prevent virtual currency transactions from causing systemic financial risks.

This is exactly what it is:

The virtual currency is booming,

and it is a series of sudden rises and sudden falls.

Beat the drum and spread the flowers, blow the big bubble,

There is an urgent need to regulate the cloud.

Blockchain has broad application prospects

According to the white paper of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, blockchain technology originated from a scholar with the pseudonym "Satoshi Nakamoto" published in 2008 The foundational paper "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System".

In a narrow sense, blockchain is a chain data structure that combines data blocks in a sequential manner in chronological order, and is cryptographically guaranteed to be non-tamperable and Unforgeable distributed ledger.

Currently, blockchain technology is used by manyLarge organizations are calling it a major breakthrough technology that completely changes the way business and even organizations operate.

The widespread application of blockchain technology can enable "decentralization" to be realized at low cost.

When we send an email, what the other party receives is actually a copy of the email, which allows the information to be spread quickly. However, this approach cannot be replicated in applications in finance and other fields. For example, when you pay 100 yuan to the other party, you cannot copy and paste the 100 yuan currency in your hand to the other party.

Therefore, in today's society, transactions involving cash, securities, intellectual property rights, patents, carbon emission quotas, etc. must be solved with the help of a huge central institution (bank, third-party payment platform, etc.) Trust issues will increase transaction costs and slow down transactions. For example, we can send an email in a minute, but a transfer within the same city may take several days. Transferring funds from one country to another comes with high fees.

Canadian blockchain expert Don Tapscott believes that blockchain technology will change the world and make trust-building technology simple and easy to understand. He said that the popularity of blockchain technology means that we may no longer need a powerful central institution as a credit medium in the future. This is the next generation of the Internet, one that has the potential to transform our money, trade, government, and society.

⑦ What is the relationship between Zhu Pan and Xue Manzi?

Zhu Pan can be regarded as a disciple of Xue Manzi. Xue Manzi once said, "Zhu Pan is a wizard and one of my secret weapons." , and compared Zhu Pan with Cai Wensheng and Li Xiang, who he had invested in. This shows how powerful this post-90s generation is.

⑧ What does Xue Manzi think about blockchain investment?

Xue Manzi "defied" Xu Xiaoping: I am not as excited about blockchain investment as he is.

Don’t touch counterfeit coins that cost just a few cents. Don’t hesitate if you don’t understand a project and only read a few lively words to fool your eyes. You have no reliable entrepreneurial experience. Don’t touch anyone with a reliable entrepreneurial team, and try not to touch anyone without the endorsement of reliable investors. Nowadays, there are too many projects. People are not really using blockchain technology to change the industry and create industry value. Most people come here for the hope of getting rich suddenly. This makes me very worried!

If this industry has such a high possibility of annihilation, why bother investing in the blockchain industry? Despite the huge uncertainties and risks, this blockchain Industry represents the future. As investors, our mission is to use our own capital to promote the great development of an industry and enjoy investment returns at the same time.

The first generation of the Internet revolutionized social functions and searches between people, and the second generation of blockchain technology will completely subvert the way human transactions are conducted. Decentralized and distributed blockchain technology will completely change the existing currency transaction model, and its contribution to the future of mankind will definitely exceed that of the Internet back then. It can be said that the future of the blockchain industry is very bright, but the road will be extremely tortuous and the challenges will be unprecedented. Let me say the important thing three times: the market is risky, so be cautious when investing! When investing in blockchain, you must be sentimental and insist on value investing. You must be knowledgeable and able to identify the team. Otherwise, don’t lose the money you have worked hard to save.

Finally, the hot industry will die. There are hot spots every year. Most of them are cannon fodder. Don’t get carried away. Most projects will fail. We look forward to the national regulatory authorities through sandboxes, licenses, legislation, and transactions. The guidance and other measures help small and medium-sized investors filter out junk projects to stabilize the market and help the healthy development of blockchain technology from the financial market level. This is my opinion on blockchain investment.

⑨ What are the application scenarios of blockchain?

Although blockchain technology is still in its early stages, the advantages of this technology have begun to be reflected in many fields. , blockchain can generate huge value, and I believe there will be more practical application scenarios in the future,

Blockchain + cross-border payment

The current mainstream cross-border remittance method is wire transfer, and its cycle is usually three to five working days. In addition to the intermediary bank that will charge a certain handling fee, a software called SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) ) will also charge higher fees for the text exchange carried out by its system. In my country, cross-border remittances through Bank of China will be charged a single fee of 150 yuan.

The use of blockchain technology allows the remitter and payee to pay and settle directly, eliminating all intermediate costs, allowing cross-border payment and settlement to be completed quickly point-to-point, improving In addition to the speed of clearing, it can also achieve round-the-clock payment, real-time arrival, simple implementation and no hidden costs.
