② What is a milestone in the development of blockchain
1. Satoshi Nakamoto’s paper-Bitcoin White Paper
In 2008, credit was too loose in the United States Under the standard, the huge bubble created by housing lending triggered a series of financial crises that started in September 2008.
On Sunday, September 14, Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy after the U.S. Federal Reserve refused to provide A-funded support assistance, and on the same day Merrill Lynch announced that it was acquired by Bank of America. These two events marked the starting point of the financial crisis, which in turn triggered the global stock market crash and the Great Financial Recession. Many investors suffered heavy losses and made people begin to distrust the totalitarian financial system.
2. Genesis Block
2009 On January 3, 2018, the first Bitcoin block was born after the first batch of miners obtained 50 Bitcoins through mining. This also marked the official birth of the Bitcoin financial system. But interestingly, in Bitcoin Several years after the advent of blockchain, people started to move from the creation of Coinbase toIn the world block transaction encoding, a hexadecimal string was found in line #1616.
After converting this string into alphanumeric characters, you will get "sknab rof tuoliab dnoces fo knirb no rollecnahC 9002/naJ/30 semiT ehT". The reverse reading is "The Times 03/Jan/2009" Chancellor on brink of second lout for banks” is the founding date of Bitcoin and the message left by Satoshi Nakamoto in the original transaction.
3. The first Bitcoin payment – PizzaDay
Laszlo Hanyecz is a Floridian and engineer working at the online retail company GoRuck, but if you are in the currency circle, you You must have heard some of his amazing deeds: Hanyecz used 10,000 Bitcoins (BTC) to buy two slices of pizza from Papa John's from netizens on May 22, 2010, which is a $25 pizza. Today, 10,000 Bitcoins are worth approximately for US$40 million.
The man named Jeremy Sturdivant (online name "Jercos") was the person who originally received 10,000 Bitcoins in exchange for two slices of pizza to Hanyecz. The importance of this transaction is that this is the first time in the history of Bitcoin that physical transactions have been carried out, proving that Bitcoin does have the function of price transfer in the real world.
4. Mt. Gox, the largest exchange hacking incident in history
On February 24, 2014, Mt. Gox was the largest Bitcoin exchange at the time. Mark Karpeles, CEO of the exchange, announced his withdrawal from the Bitcoin Foundation in his blog. Subsequent visits to Mt. Gox will only return a blank page.
On February 28, 2014, Mt. Gox filed for bankruptcy protection with the Tokyo District Court. Data from the bankruptcy research institution Teikoku Databank, Ltd. showed that Mt. Gox was in debt Reaching 6.5 billion yen, the revenue in 2013 was 135 million yen; Imperial Data Research Company stated in a press release that Mt. Gox subsequently discovered that 100,000 of its own Bitcoins and 750,000 user Bitcoins were stolen.
5. The advent of Ethereum
On July 30, 2015, the first Ethereum was officially launched, named Frontier. All the Ethereum promised to early investors was successfully delivered, and developers began to weave their dreams on Ethereum.
Part II—Constantinople of the third version of Ethereum Metropolis will be launched soon (currently postponed to the middle of next year), although the current price of Ethereum is only at this year’s highLess than 10%, but we have witnessed the innovations Ethereum has brought to the world in the past three years: including Ethereum virtual machine, smart contracts, Dapps, permissioned shared ledger (Permissioned Ledger), etc.
Although Ethereum is facing expansion difficulties and is still waiting for technology updates, in 17 and 18 years, many underlying public chains emerged as application platforms, that is, many competitors of Ethereum, opening up the "multiple "Chain Era". At present, there are many dApp developers who are turning to other public chains due to the limitations of Ethereum’s current TPS. Some people believe that the future will be a scenario of “multiple chains in parallel, one for each chain.”
③ The origin of the name Wall Street
Wall Street is the transliteration of the English "Wall Street".
The childhood of Wall Street lasted from 1980 to the end of the 19th century. The rapid development of New York in the early days and the rise of the financial industry in New York had a lot to do with the Dutch business spirit. Although the early germination of capitalism began in Renaissance Italy, capitalism in the true sense was gradually perfected in the Netherlands in the mid-17th century.
At that time, the Netherlands formed a very complete financial system, including banks, stock exchanges, credit, insurance, limited liability companies, etc. The development of the financial system gave birth to the Dutch economic take-off, making this area very small The European countries once became one of the most powerful countries in the world. When the Dutch immigrated to North America, they brought the capitalist business spirit to New Amsterdam.
(3) Extended reading on the world’s first blockchain commercial street:
The influence of Wall Street
Compared with the commercial street, Wall Street usually refers to companies whose business influence is greater than that of small and medium-sized enterprises and the middle class. It is sometimes used to specifically represent analysts, shareholders, and investors such as investment banks. and other financial institutions.
Most people’s impression of the commercial street is usually nothing more than regional companies and banks. On the other hand, Wall Street is generally synonymous with “American companies” that are privately owned and value their own interests. Wall Street sometimes uses it to distinguish the influence, culture and lifestyle of investment banks and Fortune 500 companies from small businesses.
More than anything else, Wall Street represents financial and economic power. To Americans, Wall Street is sometimes synonymous with elitism, power politics and cut-throat capitalism, but at the same time Wall Street also evokes Americans' pride in the market economy.
In the minds of Americans, Wall Street is a symbol of a country and an economic system that grew on trade, capitalism, and innovation, rather than colonialism and plunder.
④ What is blockchain
From a scientific and technological perspective, blockchain technology involves many scientific and technological issues such as mathematics courses, cryptographic algorithms, big data technology and computer programming. From an application perspective, simply put, blockchain is a distributed framework of resource sharing ledgers and dataThe database has the characteristics of decentralization, inability to forge, traces of the entire process, traceability, collective maintenance, openness and transparency.Based on this characteristic, blockchain technology establishes a reliable "trust" foundation and creates a reliable "collaboration" system, which has broad value. In recent years, the world's attitude towards Bitcoin has been ups and downs, but blockchain technology, as one of the basic technologies of Bitcoin, has received more and more attention. In the Bitcoin generation process, a block is a storage unit that records all information exchanges of each block node within the corresponding time period. The intermediate links between each block are achieved according to random distribution (also known as hash algorithm), and the subsequent block contains the hash value of the subsequent block. As the exchange of information expanded, 1 block and 1 block continued, and the result became known as blockchain technology.
Blockchain technology, as an auxiliary technology, does not decentralize the entire energy network, but makes the energy network more closely connected. Each network can be "autonomous" while maintaining independence. This independence can While improving the work efficiency of each outlet, it can also reduce the work efficiency of each outlet and avoid the energy loss of "intermediate links".
⑤ Address of Wenzhou, China, the Global Blockchain City
Ledong Village, Beibaixiang Town, Yueqing City, Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province.
Wenzhou people have a special and sensitive sense of business. Wherever there are opportunities and profits, there are Wenzhou people. Therefore, Wenzhou people moved the entire blockchain project to Wenzhou, and the world's first blockchain industrial village was settled in Ledong Village.
Ledong Village belongs to Beibaixiang Town, Yueqing City, Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province. It is located in the west of Yueqing City, northwest of Beibaixiang Town, separated from Baishi Street, and adjacent to Wuniu Town, Yongjia County. It is only 7 kilometers away from Yueqing Station and 30 kilometers away from Wenzhou Longwan Airport. Ledong's original name was Dong'ao, its ancient name was Xiangpu, and its old place name was Jinzhuxi. It belongs to the mid-levels of the mountainous area and is the twelfth capital of Mingyu Township. In the 20th year of the Republic of China, it belonged to Baishi and was called Dong'ao Village. Later it belonged to Shiyibao, Mingyu Township. After liberation, it belonged to Mingxi Township. During the communeization process, it was included in Baishi Commune.

Specialties of Ledong Village include bayberry, tea, etc. Ledong Village has scenic spots such as "Xianlingyan Scenic Area" and "Xiangpu Ancient Road" as well as ancient relics such as "Guishan Ancient Kiln Site".
⑥ Huaqiangbei - took off the aura of "getting rich overnight", but the glory never leaves
Every era has its own myth of wealth creation. If we look at the long history, we will find that in the Middle Ages, small factory owners and businessmen made a fortune; with the advent of the Age of Discovery, black slaves and land traders became extremely rich; with the advent of the Industrial Age, big factory owners and big bankers controlled the lifeline of the economy. ; During the Second Industrial Revolution, rich people emerged in the oil and automobile industries; during the World War, financiers and politicians made huge fortunes; in the 50 years after the war, high-tech industries were filled with giants; since the 21st century, the fields of blockchain and cryptocurrency have Ready to go again...
Isn’t it the same in our country? After the reform and opening up, countless businessmen and business owners, financiers have earned their first pot of gold in life, and have tasted the joy of quality life and the joy of a promising future. Even though the process is bumpy, frustrating, and mysterious, the myths of wealth creation from generation to generation can be said to be endless and coveted.
In the developed and affluent Pearl River Delta region, Shenzhen Huaqiangbei was once a place that mass-produced wealth-making myths: getting rich overnight, starting from scratch to a net worth of over 100 million, and working as a wage earner to become a big boss. Examples have been born.
In 1979, the Northern Guangdong Military Factory, which produced military radio semiconductors, felt that it was imperative to relocate, so he wrote to the leadership for instructions. The result was quickly approved. With a wave of his hand from the provincial leader, the three factories of the military factory were relocated. Qingyuan in northern Guangdong suddenly moved to Futian District, Shenzhen.
At that time, the arsenal's territory was still a land of deserted fields and weeds, abandoned factories, and there were basically only a few houses and a sparse population. Walking on the spacious dirt road, there are no buildings blocking the view. You can see mountains here and water there. Of course, glory and soaring always start from a flat land. History tells us that desolation means infinite possibilities.
After the arsenal was relocated, the work of converting the military into civilians began. It was converted into civilian household appliances and renamed "Huaqiang", which means "China is strong".
The following year, the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone was established. A large area of desolate and ordinary land was eager to take off. The government named a road near Huaqiang Company "Huaqiang Road". To the north of Huaqiang, a large number of factories began to be built. This area was named "Shangbu Light Industrial Zone" and was mainly engaged in the electronic processing business.
Because the industrial zone is located to the north of Huaqiang Company, it is called "Huaqiang North".
In 1981, the "soul building" of Huaqiangbei, the Shenzhen Electronics Building, began construction. After its completion, this 20-story building stood out from the crowd, a little lonely, but particularly eye-catching.
The Shenzhen Electronics Building is like the first bamboo shoots springing up after the rain. It rises from this fertile economic soil in the future, followed by the growing Huaqiangbei, which will be built in less than two years. Over time, more than 50 new factories have been built in Huaqiangbei.
When the chairman inspected Huaqiangbei in 1984, he said, "Computers must start from babies." Huaqiangbei has become more and more famous since then.
In the mid-1980s, the Ministry of Electronics Industry considered that merging many small businesses into large enterprises could create scale advantages and transform internal competition into internal organic collaboration, so it decided to integrate more than a hundred scattered enterprises. A small electronics company, Shenzhen Electronics Group was established, and Shenzhen Electronics Group was later Shenzhen SEG Group Company.
In 1988, Shenzhen Electronics Group opened an electronic components trading market in the previously established Shenzhen Electronics Building. The result was too much.It was so popular that the original building was bulldozed in 1996 and another skyscraper was built - the SEG Plaza Building.
In 1998, the city government seized the opportunity of transformation in time and began to transform Huaqiangbei Commercial Street, turning it into one of the most traditional and popular commercial areas in Shenzhen.
It was the best of times and the craziest of times. At that time, there were stories of the "one-meter counter" attracting money in Huaqiangbei. People who witnessed it kept telling the scenes they witnessed: "A 60,000-square-meter shop for rent was sold out in three hours." "If you go downstairs and take it to the street, you can resell it for 50,000 yuan." "At that time, anyone who entered Huaqiangbei could make money as long as they were not stupid."
As long as you get the counter, no matter how much it costs, you can make money. It can be recovered in a short time, and people gradually become more and more regardless of the cost. For a shop worth RMB 20,000 to RMB 30,000, the transfer fee can reach hundreds of thousands.
After all, a one-meter-two counter + a calculator + a mobile phone = create hundreds of millions of wealth. This was the code of wealth that people in Huaqiangbei believed at that time.
Suddenly, more than 40,000 electronics companies and hundreds of thousands of electronics practitioners flooded into Huaqiangbei. The myth of making wealth attracts groups of young people to come here. Some were originally factory girls who made a fortune by selling mobile phone microphones on consignment; some came here penniless and made a mess by assembling computers.
The most typical example is the "Prince of Copycat Mobile Phones". 16-year-old Chen Jinling came to Huaqiangbei with his relatives to work hard. When he saw the booming business in the copycat phone market, he gradually came up with the idea of integrating the market. , the idea of becoming a big agent.
After having a goal, Chen Jinling continued to understand the market and gain experience while working with his uncle. After a few years, he finally saved enough contacts and capital to obtain the qualification of an agent. Because of his integrity, With sufficient supplies, Chen Jinling's business grew bigger and bigger, and eventually he was worth over 100 million. At his peak, his sales exceeded one million a day.
Many business tycoons have made their fortune here. For example, an old building in Huaqiangbei SEG Technology Pioneer Park is where Ma Huateng and Tencent Dream started.
Behind the economic boom of Huaqiangbei is a major trend in the early 1990s: the manufacturing industry in the Pearl River Delta began to gradually expand overseas markets, selling electronic products to Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and even Europe and the United States. It can be said that the 1980s and 1990s were a golden age, and everything in the country was growing wildly.
Huaqiang North Commercial District was awarded the "China Electronics No. "First Street" honorary title, which marks the industry's confirmation of Huaqiangbei Commercial Street's leading position in the national electronics business community.
Until now, the position Huaqiangbei occupies in many people’s memories is"China's No. 1 Electronics Street", but there is a hint of irony behind the name "No. 1 Street", which can be traced back to the trend of copycat mobile phones at the beginning of the century.
Before 2003, Huaqiangbei could manufacture everything, but it could not manufacture mobile phones, because mobile phones are high-tech products after all, and they are high-barrier products that integrate multiple precision technologies.
But this barrier was bulldozed by the technological innovation of Taiwan MediaTek in 2003 - a single chip has multiple modules needed for mobile phones. From then on, Huaqiangbei manufacturers only needed to install a few additional components. The product is ready to be released. The moment a complete industrial chain is established, it is the beginning of Huaqiangbei's path of no return for copycat machines.
The fortune of "Shanzhai Mobile Phone Prince" began at this stage. At that time, Huaqiangbei's copycat phone had a crushing advantage in terms of selling price. The genuine product sold for 1,000, but it could only sell for 300, which was already a very profitable price; it had a large capacity battery, a large volume, and four SIM cards. Wait...
Huaqiangbei's various magic modifications have added many unique and practical functions to the mobile phone. Gradually, Huaqiangbei, already Asia's largest electronic components trading center, has become Asia's largest mobile phone trading center.
The hype of the stalls continues unabated. The rent of the shop is 20,000 to 30,000, but the transfer fee is sometimes as high as nearly one million. The types of counterfeit phones have become dazzling, and there are hundreds of counterfeit brands all over the country. However, they all change the basics without changing the medicine, and the problem of homogeneity is serious.
You must know that a market with serious homogeneity and sufficient supply always faces the risk of oversaturation. Your products and mine are the same, so how can we compete? Just pay the cost.
As a result, this oversaturated and unregulated market gradually breeds the behavior of bad coins driving out good coins: packaging, labeling, encapsulation, testing, and a complete chain of counterfeiting gradually grows from the cracks.
Huaqiangbei gradually accumulated widespread bad reviews within and outside the industry. Under pressure from public opinion, the government launched a high-intensity investigation, and even the deputy mayor of Shenzhen personally led a team. In 2011, Huaqiangbei was investigated again. There was a thorough "big sweep".
After high-pressure and centralized rectification, the Huaqiang business circle experienced a wave of "closure, suspension, merger, and transfer". Some merchants who relied on illegal means to operate lost their livelihood. 3,575 merchants in the Huaqiang North Mobile Phone Professional Market voluntarily exited the market in 2012. In October 2018, due to the start of construction of Metro Line 7, the main road was closed for three years. Since then, Huaqiangbei's popularity has gradually declined.
Of course, Mr. Buffett once said: "When the tide goes out, you will know who is not wearing swimming trunks." Some people in Huaqiangbei made profits and got away, while others were smashed to pieces by the toppled wealth building. . For example, "The Little Prince of Counterfeit Machines", after the water ebbs, his wife leaves him, his partners withdraw, he hoards a large amount of goods, and he is still being collected for debts and payment every day. In the end, he becomes insane and wanders around the streets and shops of Huaqiangbei in rags.Alley.
Huaqiangbei at the turn of the century is always reminiscent of New York in the 18th century and London in the 19th century: barbaric growth, chaos, disorder, opportunities and potential everywhere.
But this kind of disorderly life cannot last forever. Some practitioners in Huaqiangbei have foreseen this day early, and after completing the accumulation of wealth, they put their energy into transformation, but more people are leading the way. With all his wealth, he was buried with the Huaqiangbei Shanzhai Empire.
From disorder to order, from entropy increase to entropy decrease, this is the law of the development of human society, and the small Huaqiangbei is no exception. After the wave of the bonus period fades, has Huaqiangbei truly declined? Not really.
When someone leaves, someone enters. The iron-clad territory and the flowing practitioners are indeed missing the myth of getting rich overnight. However, the army of practitioners is still there, and the business content of Huaqiangbei people is just From a copycat machine to a genuine machine, cosmetics, and blockchain mining machine.
Relevant data shows that Huaqiangbei Commercial District covers an area of only 1.45 square kilometers, but has about 25,000 companies, more than 20,000 individual industrial and commercial households, and nearly 230,000 employees.
Huaqiangbei is still the place where "everyone sneezes makes the entire electronics industry tremble". Most of the country's TWS headsets and mining machines for blockchain mining still come from here, and more recently In 2007, the group of backpackers who purchased mobile phones for others and provided after-sales services gradually grew. Good money drove out bad money. Those backpackers who accumulated connections based on reputation, service, and efficiency gradually made a lot of money.
A few days ago, the third Huaqiangbei Science and Technology Art Festival and the 22nd Hi-Tech Fair were just held here. Technology + fashion + art have become the new labels of Huaqiangbei.
It can be said that Huaqiangbei, which has been washed away and precipitated by the times, has indeed taken off the aura of "getting rich overnight", but the glory has never been far away from here, but is still full of vitality and vitality in this area. Hovering over the place, waiting for its glory to return one day.
⑦ Do you know the three important stages in the history of blockchain development?
As blockchain technology matures, blockchain technology has made significant progress in the financial field. Results. Whether they are investors, practitioners in related financial fields, or technology practitioners, they are all very concerned about blockchain. Many people or platforms have begun to devote themselves wholeheartedly to it, using blockchain technology to create a new financial system, and have achieved impressive results.
If you have studied blockchain, maybe you have a deeper understanding of blockchain. Since the birth of blockchain, in terms of applications, It has gone through three stages of change. There have been important developments and inventions at every stage of blockchain technology, and blockchain technology has only existed for a small portion of the Internet's time, so there are likely still important developments to come.
The first technical stage
Bitcoin has been running since 2019. The main technologies supporting the Bitcoin system include hash functions, distributed ledgers, Blockchain, asymmetric encryption, and workload proof technologies constitute the initial version of blockchain.
At present, blockchain technology is not yet mature, the conservative tendency within many organizations is still obvious, and the use of centralized technology and processes in the market to make profits Intermediaries that collect revenue, equipment providers are also hyping up the concerns it may bring.
Second market phase
In early 2013, the price of Bitcoin began rise. In November of the same year, a U.S. Senate hearing clarified the legality of Bitcoin, and the price of Bitcoin rose sharply. But at this time, the blockchain has not yet reached the mainstream social and economic foundation, but its price has risen beyond expectations. At this time, the market opened up the visibility of Bitcoin and blockchain, but despite this, they still did not gain universal acceptance to a certain extent.
The third mainstream stage
Bitcoin, which is an alternative to the mainstream economy, began to recover. Market demand increased and transaction scale expanded rapidly. It also opened up the bull market of 2016-2017. . The enrichment effect of Bitcoin and the spillover effect caused by the congestion of the Bitcoin network have led to the explosive and crazy growth of other virtual currencies and various blockchain applications. At this time, it triggered a crazy global pursuit to make Bitcoin and blockchain a complete global vision.
In 2020, although the epidemic has dealt an important blow to our economy, the hot development of Bitcoin and blockchain tells us that they It is creating opportunities and driving related development. Just like the recent price of Bitcoin is close to 30,000 US dollars, such a market has brought surprises to many people, and it has also promoted the development of exchanges. After all, exchanges are the only way to buy Bitcoins. Its popularity is also It has brought good profits to exchanges, such as Huobi and Saturn Exchange, which have refreshed their historical trading volumes many times due to this bull market. In fact, no matter which industry develops, it will always drive multiple industries. After all, many things are always closely related.
⑧ Which countries are currently leading in blockchain in the world?
At present, the countries that are leading in blockchain in the world are mainly as follows:
1. United States: The United States is one of the largest blockchain markets in the world, with many blockchain start-ups and technology giants. At the same time, the U.S. government is also promoting the application of blockchain technology, such as the U.S. Securities ExchangeThe SEC has approved the first securities trading platform based on blockchain technology.
2. Singapore: Singapore is one of the leaders in the blockchain field in Asia, with a number of leading blockchain companies and research institutions. The Singapore government is also actively promoting the application of blockchain technology. For example, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has launched multiple blockchain projects, including blockchain-based payment systems and digital identity verification systems.
3. Switzerland: Switzerland is one of the leaders in the European blockchain field and has many blockchain start-ups and research institutions. The Swiss government is also actively promoting the application of blockchain technology. For example, the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) has launched an electronic ticketing system based on blockchain.
4. Japan: Japan is one of the important countries in the blockchain field in Asia, with many blockchain start-ups and technology giants. The Japanese government is also actively promoting the application of blockchain technology. For example, the Japan Financial Services Agency has approved the first digital currency exchange based on blockchain technology.
5. South Korea: South Korea is one of the important countries in the blockchain field in Asia, with many blockchain start-ups and technology giants. The Korean government is also actively promoting the application of blockchain technology. For example, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of South Korea has launched a real estate registration system based on blockchain technology.
