1. Reasons for the success of NetEase Cloud h5

Not all H5s with advanced screens win by their glamorous designs, but without exception, they sum up the past The behavior of all users using the product for a year was unearthed and some highlights were highlighted to highlight user characteristics so that each user can get different results. At the same time, they invariably generate pictures or keywords with personal labels from the test results, turning them into personal symbols, highlighting the user's personality during the display process and distinguishing them from others. This reflects the significant value of data personalization. It is precisely because everyone is different that we have the meaning of sharing and the urge to show our uniqueness to everyone. This is also the real charm of big data.

Looking back at the two annual reviews of the popular network, both showed the beauty of big data. NetEase Music marked the user's "special days" of the year and his "Singer of the Year", and finally customized a highly personalized "Personal Top Ten Playlist", which became the most shared page screenshot; look at the Alipay bill again, Through in-depth mining of online transaction data, users’ consumption habits throughout the year are presented, and keywords for 2019 are generated based on this. As there are more and more users and more and more data, they can even easily dig out the details that users have forgotten, thus knowing themselves better than you do.

In fact, every time you swipe the screen is not limited to data "showing off skills". Many inventories are designed to explore people's potential emotional needs, and behind them are profound insights into human nature. Each piece of data gives users a feeling, and those little stories they don’t want to tell naturally resonate emotionally, making them willing to share their little secrets on social platforms.

Users who are willing to share not only have a positive attitude of appreciation, but also have a certain mentality of showing off their wealth. The year-end screen brushing case in Dachuan is related to this. Alipay uses people's sense of material superiority to show their consumption power and social status, giving people an opportunity to "show off their wealth"; NetEase Music shows off its music taste based on interest-based social tendencies.

Simple and elegant production, smooth page access, shocking and emotional copywriting, etc. They are definitely the reasons for triggering screen swiping, but the fundamental reason is that as a social currency of a certain size, it can provide users with conversation topics. Talk here can be understood as something that can provide users with a sense of presence, a carrier of interpersonal communication. When we don’t understand some topics, it’s difficult for others to talk about them, and we seem to be behind the times, we need to speak capital to help integrate with society, express our own ideas, and gain a sense of existence and social identity. Existing experience shows that as long as social currencies that can buy trendy, literary, and humorous tags continue to be generated, there will always be users willing to pay.

It can be seen that in the annual review of the circle of friends, it is a common trait to gain insight into psychology and provide conversation materials. In fact, search segment leakage, if used properly, is a good medicine to break through the barriers between products and users, and it will definitely allow you to stride forward on the road to embracing more loyal users.

Related Q&A: Related Q&A: Nowadays, regional chain is so popular. 360, NetEase, Internet, etc. all have products. Why can’t Alipay or Tencent have products?

360. NetEase, the games based on the blockchain concept launched by the Internet are actually more gimmicks than practical. Looking around the world, the company that has explored the most in the field of blockchain technology is none other than Alibaba.

Global Patent Layout of Blockchain Technology

On February 6, 2018, the intellectual property industry media IPRdaily and the incoPat Innovation Index Research Center jointly released the "2017 Global Blockchain Enterprise Patent Ranking (Top 100)" . The list shows that China has led the world in the field of blockchain technology. Among the top 100 on the list, Chinese companies account for 49%, followed by American companies accounting for 33%; among them, Alibaba ranks with 49 total global patents. In the first place, Tencent Technology ranks 23rd with 11 global patents.

It is really like "sneaking into the night with the wind, moisturizing things silently". As the leaders of domestic Internet companies, Alibaba and Tencent are very pragmatic in their exploration of the blockchain field and never engage in gimmicks.

The actual use of blockchain technology

Whether it is Network Letz Dog, NetEase Planet or 360 Blockcat, it is just a preliminary demonstration of blockchain technology for users. Although Alibaba and Tencent have not launched similar Display products, but the use of blockchain technology by the two companies has actually spread across multiple fields and multiple products.

1. Alibaba

1. In July 2016, at the first global XIN Charity Conference held in Hangzhou, Ant Financial stated that blockchain technology would first be used in the Alipay charity donation platform;

2. In October 2016, at the blockchain sub-forum of the Hangzhou Yunqi Conference, Alibaba Cloud Mailbox teamed up with Fadda to launch the world's first mailbox certificate storage product based on blockchain technology;

9. On January 12, 2018, Alibaba launched "Ant Blockchain", focusing on "blockchain" + "philanthropy" and tracing the origin of every donation.

2. Tencent

1. On May 31, 2016, the Financial Blockchain Cooperation Alliance (Shenzhen) was officially established. The alliance brought together WeBank, Ping An Bank, CMB Network, Hang Seng Electronics, JD.com 31 companies including Finance, Tencent, Huawei, Yinlian Technology, Shenzhen Financial Information Services Association, etc., including 25 initiating units, and 6 institutions including Tencent and Huawei joined as member units; 2. At the end of September 2016, WeChat Public Bank and Shanghai Huarui Bank announced that they have jointly developed China’s first inter-bank joint loan clearing platform based on alliance blockchain technology and launched it for trial operation; 3. In the Spring Festival of 2017, the golden red envelopes that started internal testing have begun to use blocks. Chain technology for parallel accounting of digital assets; 4. In April 2017, Tencent released a white paper on blockchain solutions, aiming to create a blockchain ecosystem. At the same time, Tencent's blockchain industry solutions were also officially released on the official website. In addition, it also released its own blockchain project: Trusted Blockchain; 5. In June 2017, Bank of China and Tencent jointly established the " Bank of China, Tencent Financial Technology Joint Laboratory" will focus on in-depth cooperation based on cloud computing, big data, blockchain and artificial intelligence; 6. In September 2017, Tencent and Intel held the World Internet of Things Expo in Wuxi The cooperation was announced and a letter of intent for cooperation was signed. The two parties will jointly develop blockchain technology for use in Tencent's TUSI Security Laboratory to promote the establishment of security protection capabilities in IoT usage scenarios; 7. In October 2017, Tencent joined the Canadian Blockchain Research Institute; 8. 2017 On November 8, at the 2017 Tencent Global Partner Conference, Tencent Cloud officially released the blockchain financial solution BaaS (Blockchain as a Service; 9. On December 19, 2017, at Guangdong Youbei, Tencent, and Hua Xia Bank At the strategic cooperation conference, "Xingbei Cloud Chain", a supply chain financial service platform built with Tencent's blockchain technology as the underlying layer, was released.

In fact, blockchain is not just about virtual currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. It’s not just small games such as Blockcat, Leitzdog, NetEase Planet, etc. Blockchain is used almost everywhere. From the above comparison between Alibaba and Tencent, we can see that Alibaba’s blockchain technology has already been used in finance. , security, supply chain, medical care, charity and other fields. Tencent’s blockchain seems to be more in the financial field, but no matter what, Alibaba and Tencent have actually taken the lead in blockchain technology. The forefront of.

Blockchain technology is considered to be the next generation of disruptive core technology after steam engines, electricity and the Internet. It is said that blockchain technology will redefine the world. With Alibaba andTencent has accumulated patents in the field of blockchain technology. Will China use blockchain technology to achieve overtaking in the high-tech field? Perhaps one day in the future, the blockchain field will really be dominated by Chinese companies. If there is, I think it should be someone between Alibaba and Tencent. I wonder who do you think more favorably?

2. Alibaba and Tencent fell out of the top ten Internet centers but bucked the trend and moved into the top four

After the rush in 2018, blockchain patents in the first half of 2019 Application is somewhat cooling.

The interlink pulse query on the innojoy patent platform showed that the number of blockchain patent applications in China in the first half of 2019 was 909, which was only 16.2% of the 5,606 applications in the whole of last year.

It is worth noting that although Alibaba still occupies the first position in the total number of blockchain patents, it has ranked outside the 10th place in terms of new blockchain patent applications in the first half of 2019. Xunlei Group’s Netcenter Technology jumped into fourth place.

Patent indicators have multiple meanings for blockchain companies, such as investment in R&D, quality of talents, emphasis on innovation, etc. From this, you can understand the other side of blockchain development.

Industry technology investment is cooling down?

Regardless of China or foreign countries, the number of blockchain-related patent applications fell off a cliff in the first half of 2019.

Interchain Pulse searched for the keyword "blockchain" through the patent query system innojoy. Half of 2019 has passed, and the number of blockchain patent applications is only 909, which is 16.2% of last year. It can be expected , this year it will be difficult to reach the number in 2018.

The situation in other global markets is not optimistic either. Searching for "blockchain", there were only 158 patent applications in the first half of this year, accounting for only 7% of last year's total.

This decline is caused, on the one hand, because the development of blockchain technology may enter a plateau period, and the patent layout in the blockchain field has entered the final stage, and all patents in this application have been applied for. , naturally reducing investment; on the other hand, the effectiveness of blockchain implementation is insufficient and no short-term effects can be seen. Enterprises that use KPIs as assessment targets naturally reduce investment in blockchain; finally, it may be due to market reasons. The price collapse of crypto assets in half a year has affected the financing, production and other activities of block companies, which in turn has affected patent applications.

Where have Alibaba and Tencent gone?

The most surprising thing is that Alibaba was not so "progressive" in terms of blockchain patents in 2019. He won the "championship" for two consecutive years in 2017 and 2018, but he was missing from the top ten this year.

According to data obtained by interlink pulse query innojoy, Alibaba Group applied for 12 patents in the first half of 2019, and could only be ranked 12th.Bit.

In addition, Tencent, another major Internet company, has also significantly slowed down the pace of blockchain research and development. There were only 7 related patent applications in the first half of the year, ranking 22nd.

In the first half of the year, China Unicom had the largest number of applications, with 50 applications. Ping An Technology, Complex Beauty, Wangxin Technology, and Network ranked 2-5 with 27, 25, 23, and 20 applications respectively.

Similar to the previous two years, there are two native blockchain companies in the top ten - Complex Beauty and Qulian Technology.

The evolution of China’s top ten blockchain patents

Native blockchain companies initially occupied a dominant position in related patents.

In 2015, China’s blockchain patent applications began to take off, with a total of 30 applications. The earliest batch of native blockchain companies have become the main force in blockchain patent applications. Bubi Blockchain, established in 2015, has applied for 8 related patents.

In 2016, the world continues to be dominated by native blockchain companies. In addition to Bubi Blockchain, there are also Hangzhou Yunxiang Blockchain, Hangzhou Complex Beauty, Beijing Tiande Technology, and Beijing Zhongxiang Bit Technology. Batch blockchain patent applications. The number of blockchain patent applications jumped to 470 that year.

It is worth noting that in 2016, Internet and financial technology companies joined the research on blockchain. The patent applications of Alibaba (7 cases) and China UnionPay (8 cases) showed that they are in the region. Blockchain business layout.

In 2017, more companies and organizations joined in blockchain research, and the number of patent applications that year was 1,478, more than three times that of 2016. In that year, Alibaba’s number of blockchain patent applications exploded (57), becoming the number one blockchain patent application.

It can be seen from the patent list that year that a group of traditional large companies poured into blockchain research, including Tencent, China Merchants Bank, China Unicom, Inspur Technology, Dianrong, etc., which all applied for more than 10 patents that year. More than 100 blockchain patents. However, native blockchain companies such as Zhonglian, VeChain, Ouluian, Qulian, etc. all ranked in the top ten in terms of patent applications that year.

In 2018, the number of blockchain patent applications was as high as 5,606. Traditional technology companies are accelerating their deployment in the blockchain field. Ping An Technology, Internet, Tencent, ZhongAn and Xunlei Group's Netcenter Technology entered the top ten in terms of patent applications that year, squeezing out native blockchain companies. Among the top ten, there are only two native blockchain companies, Complex America and Zhonglian.

Traditional technology companies and financial companies have advantages in technology, talent, and market, and most of them are trying to seize the market for blockchain patents.

The three poles of blockchain

CutBy the end of the first half of 2019, the number of blockchain applications in China exceeded 8,440. Alibaba still tops the list with 257 items. Complex Beauty and Zhonglian Technology are two native blockchain companies.

Interchain Pulse selected the top 30 companies with the highest number of blockchain patent applications and further subdivided them into Internet companies, financial technology companies, and blockchain companies according to their fields. companies, communication companies, Internet of Things companies, universities and computer companies.

Currently there is a situation of "three parts of the world". The top 30 companies have applied for a total of 2,431 blockchain patents. Among them, Internet companies applied for 722 patents, accounting for 29.66%, including Alibaba, Internet, Tencent, Netcenter Technology, etc.; followed by blockchain companies, applied for 547 patents, accounting for 22.5%, including Complex Beauty , Zhonglian, Yunxiang, Ouluan, etc.; fintech applied for 541 applications, accounting for 22.2%, including Ping An Technology, Dianrong.com, Taikang Life, WeBank, etc.

The regional distribution of the top 30 blockchain patents also shows a trend of one-third of the world. Companies registered in Beijing applied for 845 patents, accounting for 34.7%, including China Unicom, China Network, Zhonglian, Qihoo, etc.; companies registered in Shenzhen applied for 830 patents, accounting for 34.1%, including Ping An Group, Tencent, Wangxin Technology, Launch Technology, etc.; there were 510 applications from companies registered in Hangzhou, accounting for 21%, including Alibaba, Complex Beauty, Yunxiang, Miyuan, etc. The performance of blockchain company clusters such as Guangzhou and Shanghai is not outstanding.

3. Does blockchain have development prospects in the future?

A series of large companies such as Tencent and Alibaba are branching out. Eat and seize the blockchain cake. Do you think it has any development prospects? Of course there is! Below are the top ten predictions of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology on the global blockchain. I hope it will be helpful to you! !

< /p>

From the current market media information, we can see that blockchain information has occupied the major media landscape. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is in the center of the storm. The appropriate metaphor is that it is in the center of the storm.

Why does the blockchain become so popular all of a sudden? Let’s talk about the currency circle. For example, a mainstream currency actually appeared a few years ago, but because the single value direction is not recognized by people, it is not It is worth entering the public eye. After several years of skyrocketing, it seems that all of a suddenIt activates some potential human nature, just like buying a house. Everyone can't understand it, it is tempting, it explodes, and then it activates greedy human nature. Then the information exploded all at once. Seeking knowledge is what everyone wants to know about how coins are produced and how coins are created. So this is how the term blockchain was discovered.

Back to the topic, there is a difference between the currency circle and the blockchain. The currency is just an extension of the blockchain, and the blockchain is the underlying development structure of the currency. Blockchain uses code architecture to build a data distribution architecture similar to a spider web. The information in each link is a storage node, which is different from the previous centralized information storage centers. If you want to modify one of the links, other storage information nodes do not allow it, and you cannot modify the underlying information. This kind of storage center Optimized information distribution is theoretically safer and has better information flow. Just like a house, the framework determines the layout of the house and the comfort of lighting. The principle of building the code architecture is also critical. The specific architecture of the blockchain There is currently not much reference information to what extent the utilization value can be achieved, but large companies have begun to make plans. Judging from the current popularity of the currency circle, the financial attribute field of blockchain is more attractive than other fields. .

The development prospects of the future blockchain are certain. If you want to understand the prospects of the blockchain field, you still need to have a deeper understanding of what the big guys in the current blockchain field are doing. For example, a certain investment giant What are V people doing using blockchain? The direction they are taking has set the benchmark for the development of this field to a certain extent.

I still advise that there are risks in certain coins, so do it and cherish it.

The prospects are great

Blockchain is called the next generation of disruptive core technology, and some scholars believe it will redefine the world. Our government also supports blockchain technology. All its codes are transparent and each personal information is stored on a separate chain. Compared with the current leakage of personal information, the emergence of blockchain will effectively solve this problem. Question, secondly, there are many other applications of blockchain, private messages that need to be understood!

The current public misunderstanding about blockchain is mainly due to the state’s jurisdiction over digital currencies. The emergence of digital currencies has greatly threatened legal tender. The state has no control over this uncontrollable currency. Supported! However, if digital currency can be effectively popularized in the future, this decentralized currency will be even better than legal currency in terms of security and cost.

Based on the above personal opinions, if you are interested in blockchain and digital currency, please feel free to discuss in private!

Judging from the current situation, it is relatively simple for major Internet companies to test blockchain application functions and is still in its infancy. The real potential application space of blockchain (finance, government affairs, medical care, etc.) is still huge, and it will take time to slowly explore it. In the short term, it does not yet have the conditions for large-scale implementation. However, recently major Internet companies have frequently used blockchain technology toThe layout has played a positive role in the cultivation and promotion of blockchain in my country's market, especially in the A-share market, which has attracted strong attention from investors. China Merchants Securities believes that through the conduct of major Internet companies, the audience of blockchain will gradually expand from niche players to the general public.

The current trend is good.

1. Distributed ledgers improve social efficiency.

2. Certain industries can reduce the need for intermediaries.

3. The development of storage and computing performance may bring more industry opportunities.

Bitcoin can solve these problems, and Bitcoin is BSV.

To be honest, the prospects are very good! If you want to talk about digital currencies like Bitcoin, I think the prospects are not great now. Firstly, because mining is now very difficult and it is basically difficult for individual users to mine it, but because the volatility is too high and the water level is too high. Deep down, investment is basically about losing more and making less. The money that can be made is miners and exchanges.

But blockchain is different. Blockchain is a technical and knowledge-based thing. It can be used in many aspects, such as shopping transactions, transportation and logistics, finance, insurance and many other aspects. It can be applied. Not many banks are now cooperating with Internet companies to develop blockchain.

Therefore, blockchain should have good application prospects in the future, mainly because the technology itself has many advantages and has a wide range of applications.

Blockchain definitely has development scenarios! Blockchain technology can be applied in many fields, including finance, insurance, and shopping transactions. And due to the advantages of the blockchain itself, decentralization, asymmetric encryption, etc. are a good way to solve the current trust problems in people's production and life. The future prospects of digital currency may not be great, but I think blockchain has huge room for development.

Qianzhan believes that China’s blockchain market will maintain rapid growth, with a compound annual growth rate of 73% in market size from 2021 to 2026. The market size in 2026 will reach US$16.368 billion, and in the next 20 years , China’s blockchain industry market size is expected to reach the trillion level.

China’s blockchain industry market is developing rapidly

From 2017 to 2020, large IT Internet companies have deployed blockchain, start-ups have entered a blowout mode, and the industry scale has continued to expand. According to IDC According to the data, China's blockchain industry has experienced changes from a market size of US$85 million in 2017 to an industry scale of US$561 million in 2020.

In terms of the number of enterprises, in 2020H1, my country provided blockchain professional technical support, products, solutions and other services, and the number of new blockchain enterprises with input or output reached 303, a year-on-year increase of 274.07 %.

China’s blockchain patents account for a large proportion of the world, and the industrial aggregation effect is beginning to show.

From the perspective of the global competition landscape, my country’s competitive advantages in the blockchain industry are relatively obvious. Judging from the number of patents, according to data from the "Global Enterprise Blockchain Invention Patent Ranking in the First Half of 2020" released by IPRdaily, the world's authoritative third-party intellectual property agency, and the incoPat Innovation Index Research Center, the TOP 100 companies mainly come from 14 countries and regions. , China accounts for 46%, followed by the United States accounting for 25%.

As an important carrier for the development of blockchain industrial clusters, local governments are accelerating the construction of blockchain industrial parks. Judging from the location distribution of industrial parks, there are a large number of blockchain industrial parks in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Chongqing, Qingdao, and Changsha, forming a Bohai Rim agglomeration effect dominated by Beijing and Shandong, with Zhejiang and Shanghai , the agglomeration effect of the Yangtze River Delta dominated by Jiangsu, the agglomeration effect of the Pearl River Delta dominated by Guangdong, and the agglomeration effect of Hunan, Guizhou, and Chongqing dominated by Chongqing and Hunan. In the future, China's blockchain industry is expected to accelerate development relying on the aggregation effect.

The blockchain financial field is the most widely used

my country's blockchain industry applications are mainly distributed in finance, supply chain, traceability and hardware, accounting for nearly 65%. According to the "Blockchain Blue Book: China Blockchain Development Report (2019)", there are nearly 28,000 blockchain companies in the country. Among them, about 1,000 blockchain companies have been put into production, accounting for only 3.6%. They are mainly concentrated in developed eastern regions such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, and Zhejiang.

The market capacity of the blockchain industry is expected to reach trillions in the future

Blockchain technology is a key direction for China’s new generation of independent innovation breakthroughs in information technology, and contains huge space for innovation. In the fields of chips, big data, cloud computing and other fields, innovation activities are becoming increasingly active, and innovation elements are constantly accumulating. The application of blockchain technology in various industries continues to deepen, which will give rise to a large number of new technologies, new products, new applications, and new models.

China focuses on accelerating the transformation of its economic development model, pays more attention to the improvement of economic quality and people's living standards, and uses new generation information technology, including blockchain technology, to transform and upgrade traditional industries and enhance the quality of traditional industries. Develop quality and efficiency, and improve the level of smart social management, public services and home life.

The huge market demand in the future will bring rare development opportunities and broad development space to blockchain technology. Researchers compiled and analyzed that China’s blockchain market will maintain rapid growth, with a compound annual growth rate of 73% in market size from 2021 to 2026. The market size in 2026 will reach US$16.368 billion, and in the next 20 years, China’s blockchain market will The industry market size is expected to reach the trillion level.

——For more data, please refer to the "China Blockchain Industry Market Foresight and Development" by the Qianzhan Industry Research InstituteInvestment Strategic Planning Analysis Report"

At present, the country also strongly supports the development of blockchain technology and hopes to apply it to various fields, so now some large companies, such as Tencent, Alibaba, NetEase, and the Internet are participating Come in, it is still in the development stage, and you can look forward to it in the future

The blockchain economy cannot be simply understood as various virtual currencies. The essence of the blockchain is to solve the problem of authenticity, confidentiality and non-tampering of information. (Everyone involved is a recorder of information, and everyone is just a link in the entire information chain.) It effectively solves the problems of privacy and integrity, so its application scenarios and prospects are broad and promising. (But it should not become a paradise for scammers)

4. Popular explanation of what blockchain is

Question 1: What is blockchain and can it be explained in plain language? Let’s take a look at the ten-point principle of blockchain: decentralized distributed accounting system
The core of blockchain technology is that all currently participating nodes jointly maintain transactions and databases, which makes transactions based on cryptographic principles rather than trust. , so that any two parties who reach an agreement can directly conduct payment transactions without the participation of a third party.
?
Technically speaking, a block is a data structure that records transactions, reflecting the flow of funds for a transaction. The blocks of transactions that have been reached in the system are connected together to form a main chain, and all nodes participating in the calculation record the main chain or part of the main chain. A block contains the following three parts: transaction information, hash hash formed by the previous block, and random number. Transaction information is the task data carried by the block, specifically including the private keys of both parties to the transaction, the number of transactions, the digital signature of electronic currency, etc.; the hash formed by the previous block is used to connect the blocks to realize the past The order of transactions; random numbers are the core of transaction completion. All miner nodes compete to calculate the answer to the random number. The node that gets the answer the fastest generates a new block and broadcasts it to all nodes for update, thus completing a transaction.
1.1 What is Blockchain
Blockchain (BlockChain) refers to a technical solution that collectively maintains a reliable database through decentralization and trustlessness. This technical solution mainly allows any number of nodes participating in the system to associate and generate a series of data blocks (blocks) using cryptographic methods. Each data block contains all the information exchange data of the system within a certain period of time, and generates The data fingerprint is used to verify the validity of its information and chain to the next database block.
?
In layman’s terms, blockchain technology refers to a way for all people to participate in accounting. Behind all systems there is a database, which is a big ledger. Then who will keep this ledger becomes very important. At present, it is whoever owns the system who keeps the accounts. Each bank’s account books are kept by each bank, and Alipay’s account books are kept by Alibaba. But nowIn the blockchain system, everyone in the system has the opportunity to participate in accounting. If there are new transaction data changes within a certain period of time, everyone in the system can do accounting. The system will judge the person who has the fastest and best accounting during this period, write the recorded content to the ledger, and Send the contents of the ledger during this period to all other people in the system for backup. In this way, everyone in the system has a complete ledger. Therefore, this data becomes very safe. A tamperer needs to modify more than half of the system node data at the same time to truly tamper with the data. Such tampering would be extremely costly, making it nearly impossible. For example, Bitcoin has been running for more than 7 years. Countless hackers around the world have tried to attack Bitcoin, but so far there have been no transaction errors. It can be considered that the Bitcoin blockchain has been proven to be a safe and reliable system.
?
1.2 Why is there blockchain innovation?
Human beings need to communicate during their activities, and communication is based on information. In the past, information circulation was not convenient enough to satisfy market participants. There is a demand for information, so intermediaries and centers are born. This centralized system has problems such as high cost, low efficiency, value dispersion, "information islands" and insecure data storage. However, due to technical and environmental factors, this system continued to operate for many years until the emergence of the Internet. The starting point of the first generation of the Internet is the TCP/IP protocol, which is an open code that implements a unified format for peer-to-peer transmission of information by all nodes on the network, and brings the basic values ​​of freedom and equality required by a global unified market into programmed, protocol-based, and reliably Execution. The Internet eliminates low-value, high-cost intermediate chains and achieves low-cost and high-efficiency global information transmission in a decentralized manner.
?
However, the first generation of the Internet did not solve the problem of information credibility. Activities that can be decentralized on the Internet must be activities that do not require credit endorsement, and activities that require credit guarantee must be activities involving centralized third-party intermediaries. Therefore, Internet technology that cannot establish global credit has encountered great obstacles in its progress - people cannot participate in any value exchange activities on the Internet in a decentralized manner. To realize value exchange, people still need third-party intermediaries based on credit (such as banks, clearing agencies, exchanges). The global centralized credit system still has problems such as high operating costs, low efficiency, and vulnerability to attacks and damage. For example, each country's legal currency has different credit values ​​and incompatible clearing systems, which adds a lot of cost to global trade.
?
Therefore, what the second generation Internet must break through is: how to establish global credit in a decentralized manner? Let...>>

Question 2: What is blockchain? What does it mean in layman’s terms? What is China’s attitude towards blockchain? What can blockchain do? Blockchain (BlockChain), the great technology that accompanied the birth of BitcoinThe current application of technology in the financial field can significantly reduce transaction costs and improve efficiency, which is enough to excite Wall Street. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Its potential applications are very broad and will subvert every aspect of our lives in the future.
Blockchain is an important concept of Bitcoin. It is essentially a decentralized database and serves as the underlying technology of Bitcoin. One of the most basic characteristics of Bitcoin is decentralization. In recent months, financial giants have gradually begun to pay attention to Bitcoin's technology and used it in non-monetary fields, such as stock trading, election voting, etc. (1) Art Industry
Artists can use blockchain technology to declare ownership and issue numberable, 100% edition works in digital form for any type of artwork. It even includes a marketplace where artists can buy and sell through their website without the need for any intermediary services.
(2), Real estate industry
Use blockchain technology to solve various problems faced by everyone involved in real estate, including the naming process, land registration, agency intermediaries, etc.
(3), Insurance Industry
The financial industry has always been the most sensitive to advanced technology. Traditional banking and securities industry giants have been involved in the booming blockchain venture capital investment since 2014, with total global investment reaching US$1 billion within two years.
(4) P2P wallet
Personal assets can be traded through this P2P wallet in the future without going through any central institution, such as Bitcoin.
Most blockchains are in their infancy, mainly overseas. There are very few good domestic blockchain projects, so it is not recommended for any non-professionals to invest in blockchain projects. If you are very interested in blockchain technology and have a technical or financial background, it is recommended that you consider starting a business in this area. In terms of the blockchain protocol system, the lowest layer is the underlying technology of the blockchain, including the technical protocols of the blockchain, as well as some platform routing and basic algorithms; in the middle layer, some application interfaces and some credentials must be solved Issuance and verification, including some industry platform services, big data analysis, etc. This is a very rough classification, and there should be more detailed classifications; the top ones are some applications of blockchain, including finance Some applications and some applications in other aspects, the Internet of Things and so on.
Introduction to Bubi Blockchain
Bubi Blockchain has been focusing on the research and development and innovation of blockchain technology and products since its establishment. It has a number of core technologies and has achieved substantial results in many aspects. Radical innovation has resulted in a number of core technological achievements, such as: mathematically provable distributed consensus technology, fast large-scale ledger access technology, multi-chain general ledger technology that supports business expansion, and interconnection technology between heterogeneous blockchains. wait. On April 25, “Gege Points” introduced the point system to the blockchain concept, and multi-party cooperationThe system is open to the public, points are issued and exchanged, and the circulation of points is promoted. Each cooperative institution can jointly participate in transaction verification, ledger storage, and real-time settlement; the third-party payment platform of the enterprise points issuer makes the entry and exit of points more flexible. Bubi has developed its own basic blockchain service platform, which has been applied in equity, supply chain, points, credit and other fields. Bubi has been committed to building an open value circulation network with decentralized trust as the core, allowing digital assets to flow freely.
A simple understanding of blockchain is a technology at the bottom of Bitcoin, which is also a peer-to-peer electronic cash system that can realize peer-to-peer value delivery. We should distinguish between Bitcoin, Bitcoin blockchain, blockchain and blockchain. Blockchain technology and other concepts. In countries with relatively developed finance in the past, finance and blockchain technology have a long history, and the legislation of digital currencies and blockchain networks is also very important. With the advent of the financial era, large financial institutions are studying blockchain technology. They have their own teams and conceptual technologies. Slowly, banks in various regions are also participating in digital currency discussions. The application and support of this technology are not only that. The influence of blockchain on enterprises is also huge. For larger domestic enterprises, Bubi Blockchain is also used in various equity, supply chain, points and other fields. Major domestic financial institutions and enterprises have taken a fancy to the new industry. value, they have developed their own blockchain platforms, and blockchain has instantly become a new innovative industry in China. In terms of overseas internationalization, the United States has already obtained 15 blockchain patents at the end of last year compared to China. Blockchain financial applications are entering a new stage in an all-round way. Various applications will become more and more in-depth, and related changes will also become more and more profound. It has attracted more and more attention and will form a huge new trend... >>

Question 3: What is blockchain technology? What exactly is blockchain? What is blockchain? 1. Data blockchain is an important concept in the Bitcoin financial system. It records transaction record data on the entire Bitcoin network, and these data are shared by all Bitcoin nodes. Through the data block, we can query each transaction record. A look at the history of Bitcoin transactions. 2. Example: There are three persons A, B, and C. All funds of A and B are kept by C. And every financial transaction must be recorded by C. Now assume that A and B each have 1 million in custody of C. Then: A spends 80,000 yuan to B, then C's account book record will subtract 80,000 yuan from A's name, and add 80,000 yuan to B's name. If B transfers 50,000 yuan to A, C will add 50,000 yuan to A's name and subtract 50,000 yuan to B's name in the account book. A spends 50,000 yuan to B, then C's account book record will subtract 50,000 yuan from A's name, and add 50,000 yuan to B's name. 3. The role of the data blockchain is similar to that of C’s account record book. It records the user’s ownership of Bitcoin and the records of all users’ Bitcoin transactions. It’s just that this “account record book” is recorded by the mining software of every Bitcoin miner on the network. If a Bitcoin transactionIf it is easily confirmed by the data blockchain, the relevant information will be recorded in the data blockchain. Bitcoin’s “account record book” is called the data blockchain. All data blockchains on the network form Bitcoin’s distributed network database system. 4. The essence of data blockchain technology is a decentralized and distributed structure of data storage, transmission and certification methods. It uses data blocks to replace the current Internet's dependence on central servers, so that all data changes or transaction items are recorded. On a cloud system, the self-certification of data during data transmission is theoretically realized. In a far-reaching sense, this transcends the traditional and conventional information verification paradigm that relies on a center and reduces the cost of establishing global "credit." This point-to-point verification will produce a "basic protocol", a new form of distributed artificial intelligence, and will establish a new interface and shared interface for human brain intelligence and machine intelligence.

Question 4: What is blockchain: This explanation of blockchain is more understandable. Blockchain refers to a technology that collectively maintains a reliable database through decentralization and trustlessness. plan.
In layman’s terms, blockchain technology refers to a way for all people to participate in accounting. There is a database behind all systems. You can think of the database as a big ledger. Then who will keep this ledger becomes very important. Currently, whoever owns the system keeps the accounts. Tencent keeps the accounts of WeChat, and Alibaba keeps the accounts of Taobao. But now in the blockchain system, everyone in the system has the opportunity to participate in accounting. If there are any data changes within a certain period of time, everyone in the system can do accounting. The system will judge the person who has the fastest and best accounting during this period, write his recorded content into the ledger, and record this Within a period of time, the contents of the ledger are sent to all other people in the system for backup. In this way, everyone in the system has a complete ledger. In this way, we call it blockchain technology.
Blockchain technology has become the darling of the financial community in China and has become a hot topic. Domestic Puyin Group has launched Puyin, a tea-based digital currency.

Question 5: Explain in an easy-to-understand manner what blockchain is. Blockchain can be understood as a database system in a sense. The development of blockchain can be divided into 1.0 and 2.0
1.0 is represented by Bitcoin, and its main application is virtual currency or digital currency application. The blockchain at this time can only be used for simple digital currency transactions.
2.0 is represented by the now popular ethereum (Ethereum) and the upcoming hyperledger. The blockchain at this stage can not only meet the corresponding digital currency transactions, but also use smart contracts to customize currency or asset transactions. If we still use the database analogy, the emergence of smart contracts can be understood as allowing users to define functions in the database (function) or stored procedure (procere), and called and executed.
Different from traditional databases, the blockchain introduces consensus mechanism, incentive mechanism, p2p (network), hash and other specific elements, making it open, decentralized and non-tamperable. characteristic.

Question 6: What is blockchain? Can anyone explain it in simple terms? Blockchain is the underlying technology of Bitcoin. It is like a ledger that records all transactions. It is decentralized. What is decentralization? For example, when you buy something on Taobao, you place an order and pay it to Alipay. Alipay will not transfer the money to the seller until you receive the goods. Alipay is the third party in that center. Without it, it means decentralization, just like buying things offline. If you pay with one hand and get the goods with the other hand, there is no third party.
The blockchain itself is a series of cryptographically related data blocks generated.
Look carefully to see if it looks like a ledger. The pieces one by one are blocks, and connected together they are the blockchain.
Many companies are developing this technology, including ours, and its prospects are incredible. For details, you can go to our official website and hope to adopt it, thank you

Question 7: What is blockchain technology? What is blockchain? How to explain the concept of blockchain? People in each industry have different understandings, and relevant explanations are gradually emerging due to more and more real-life applications. With the popularization of this blockchain technology, the related results are getting bigger and bigger. If we want to understand this technology, we must have an in-depth understanding of reality.
In the past six months, the concept of blockchain has gradually become popular in China, and a blockchain whirlwind has taken off in the financial circle. Blockchain has attracted the attention and favor of more and more people in the industry due to its unique technical advantages. Blockchain technology, which is decentralized (or multi-centered), highly transparent, cannot be tampered with, and has no single point of failure, is entering the field of vision of financial institutions and enterprises. It has at least been used in digital currency, payment exchange, registration and settlement, Digital assets, traceability and anti-counterfeiting, supply chain, Internet of Things and many other fields have moved from theoretical discussions to practical applications.
"Blockchain" was first introduced with "Bitcoin" released in early 2009. Blockchain has become the basic protocol and technical application for the launch, recording and circulation of Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin has been controversial since its inception and cannot even be regarded as a "currency" by governments and monetary authorities, the blockchain technology used in Bitcoin has been recognized by governments, including governments and monetary authorities. extensive attention.
Why has blockchain become a rapidly heating up hot technology and topic?
The most important of these may be that the launch of Bitcoin based on blockchain technology has opened up a new relationship with traditional society ( Internet user identity verification and wealth confirmation that have little connection with offline) and are completely applied in the online world (online)The exploration and attempt of brand-new technologies and rule systems such as authentication, transaction records, notarization and verification, etc. provide people with optional paths and unlimited imagination to adapt to the development of the Internet society.
Judging from its application in Bitcoin, blockchain is a set of new network blocks (BLOCK, also called communities) formed by combining encryption technology with the Internet. Bitcoin configuration, netizen identity verification, and Bitcoin (value) confirmation formed by mining, Bitcoin transaction records, and extended encryption of Bitcoin cross-block flow (value transfer) (added block and transaction time identification, etc. Internet protocol rules and accounting (Ledger) system including block chain, full encryption, mutual authentication, etc., including factor) registration and verification. Precisely because Bitcoin is not a substitute for offline legal currency, but is issued and managed by non-legal currency authorities, mainly imitating the model of gold, and is completely new and decentralized protected and supported by basic Internet protocols and strict encryption technology. Internet currency (virtual currency) has thus formed a new set of currency rules and systems that are different from and not subject to real social laws, and can be bought, sold or exchanged with legal currency. It has been more than 8 years since Bitcoin was launched. There has been no record of funds or user information being stolen. Its security has been verified, and its efficiency and cost of fund settlement also have obvious advantages. This has made people's confidence in the blockchain technology used in Bitcoin continue to increase, and people have become more and more aware that although blockchain is a technology and protocol pioneered and applied by Bitcoin, the blockchain Chain is not the same as Bitcoin, and its application is by no means limited to Bitcoin. The application of blockchain can be decentralized or centralized; it can be a public chain model or a private chain model. Therefore, after Bitcoin, blockchain technology is also constantly developing and innovating, and constantly exploring new application fields, especially in the financial field.
The reason why blockchain is valued highly by more and more people is because the development and widespread application of the Internet have caused more and more economic exchanges and transaction activities to be conducted online, and the online world (or online world) society) is rapidly expanding, enriching and active, and online transactions must solve the efficiency and security protection issues of the parties' identity verification, value verification, transaction records, inspection and verification, etc., and require strict intermediaries and agreements (rules or constitutions). In this regard, traditional thinking and customary practices are to follow the development trajectory of the transfer of offline transactions to online and push the common rules and practices of the real (offline) society to the online (network) society. However, in practice, more and more It is difficult to adapt to the needs of online transactions.
For example, for the identity verification of the parties, the natural choice is to use the information on the identity documents protected by the laws of various countries as the basis, and then add account or transaction passwords, as well as facial recognition, iris, fingerprints and other biometrics to conduct online transactions. Verification, but this method first makesIn the cross-border interconnected online world, citizen identity information is subject to administrative jurisdiction in real society... >>

Question 8: Explain in an easy-to-understand manner what a blockchain is The English word for chain is Blockchain. Block literally means block, block, and chain means chain, chain. Therefore, together they are translated into blockchain.
1. Use cryptography technology to encrypt and decrypt so that records cannot be tampered with. Common blockchain encryption methods include hash algorithm, RSA algorithm, elliptic curve algorithm, etc.;
2. The huge amount of calculation needs to be supported by a reasonable reward mechanism. Because every transaction must be recorded, Bitcoin’s blockchain has more than 60 gigabytes so far. Every new transaction requires confirmation of the information related to the trading account to ensure that the transaction is valid. The huge amount of calculation requires a computer with powerful computing power to complete.
In order to encourage the participation of powerful computing power, Bitcoin provides two rewards: one is to issue a certain number of bitcoins to these computers every day; instead, all transfer fees are awarded to these computers. (The technical term for these computers is "mining machines", and the people who hold the mining machines are called "miners".)
Biying China is working hard on asset digitization and launched the digital currency crowdfunding platform Biying China.

Question 9: What is the so-called "blockchain"? Blockchain itself is a tool called decentralization and trustlessness. For example, when you graduate from university, the current practice is to have a certificate recognized and issued by an authoritative agency as your certificate. This setting is more troublesome, because this is a piece of paper, and paper can be forged, so there will be various gaps. The issuing authority is also a person, and there will be various gaps in the middle. As long as it is related to people, whoever There are various possibilities related to media. The blockchain provides a great opportunity. As soon as you graduate, you will have a record on the blockchain. No one can change this record. This thing exists objectively. You, as a physical existence , and then as a data existence, the blockchain was born. In this case, anyone who wants to check where you graduated can easily solve the problem. This is similar to the big data often involved in social networking (WeChat) and payment platforms (Alipay, Yibao).

Question 10: What does blockchain mean? Regarding blockchain, I think you have already seen the concept on the Internet. Let me explain it based on my understanding!
First, let’s talk about its characteristics: 1. Openness and transparency 2. Decentralization 3. Anonymity 4. Information cannot be tampered with, eliminated 5. No trust cost
Blockchain is like a public ledger , everyone has the right to record and read it, and everyone will jointly supervise to ensure its accuracy, andThe recorded content will be saved permanently and can only be added but not deleted! However, as the number of blocks continues to increase, costs will increase and efficiency will decrease. (I’m not sure whether technology can be used to make up for this. I hope someone who understands technology can point it out.)
Blockchain is divided into public chain, private chain, and alliance chain. Public chain: accessible to everyone, everyone has read and write permissions, completely open, transparent and decentralized. Private chain: Open to individuals or institutions, in which the owner of the private chain can set various permissions to make it partially centralized. Alliance chain: Open to specific organizations or groups, it is also "partially decentralized". According to the ledger at the beginning, members can view and transact, but cannot record and confirm bills, or require permission from the alliance. (The latter two do not have cost and efficiency issues)
Regarding blockchain, countries have begun to recruit talents in this area. For this, you can search online for "Central Bank Recruiting Digital Currency R&D Personnel". In addition, you can increase your understanding of blockchain by understanding its existing applications. What we usually refer to generally refers to public chains. Currently, those used abroad include Bitcoin, Ethereum and other domestic blockchains. Chain
1. Open and transparent: Every piece of data is verified by everyone and can be viewed by everyone at any time.
2. Decentralization: For example, when we shop on Taobao, we conduct transactions through the intermediary Taobao, and blockchain allows both supply and demand parties to directly contact each other for direct transactions through blockchain technology.
3. Anonymity: No personal privacy information is required to complete transactions on the blockchain, only your unique alphanumeric signature is required.
4. Information cannot be tampered with or deleted: Once the data has been verified and recorded, no one has the authority to modify it, let alone delete it!
5. No trust cost: The trust crisis in reality will not appear in the blockchain. Transactions in the blockchain do not require you to trust the other party. Only when both of you have enough "digital assets" to trade can it be carried out, and Under the supervision of the entire network, transactions will not be broken. If you have no idea about the cost of trust, just think about how many intermediaries there are in your city, or just think about Jack Ma, and you will know how big the cost of trust is.
I am still learning more about blockchain. I am Li Ailin. If you have any questions, you can discuss and learn together!

5. How far is Ant Chain from replacing electronic contracts?

As an Alibaba company named by Jack Ma himself, but has not yet completed the name change on the Internet, Ant Chain does seem to be A little too low-key.

In that era when everyone must be called Bitcoin and everyone wants to do ICO, Ant Chain seems a bit out of place.

1｜Ant Chain has accumulated more than 50 application scenarios

In 2015, Alibaba established a blockchain interest group internally and used its spare time to build a public welfare blockchain , Ant Blockchain was born.

Even in the hottest era of ICO in 2017, Ant Chain did not pay attention to the noise from the outside world and kept silently exploring the application of blockchain, and successively launched products and services such as authentic traceability and cross-border remittances. Accumulating technical foundation.

Ant Chain is moving forward in the unaccompanied darkness and making its own way, very much like Alibaba Cloud in 2009.

Data source public data compiled by China Software Network

In 5 years, Ant Chain has accumulated more than 3,000 patents, and officially announced that it has more than 50 application scenarios, with an average daily increase of Chained 100 million times, it has become the largest blockchain application company in the world. Let those ethereal on-chain fantasies of 2017 shine into reality.

According to the research of China Software Network, Ant Chain is currently at least in supply chain finance, joint risk control, asset management, financial leasing, blockchain contracts, traceability services, electronic licenses, bill circulation, invoice circulation, and Information data service platform, remote bidding, blockchain copyright, digital logistics, digital warehouse receipts, joint marketing, points marketing, Jifenbao, digital commodity collaboration network, professional qualification certification services, donation traceability, time bank, pension charity It has relatively large-scale applications in 24 scenarios including prescription circulation, health services, etc. With the help of the "open alliance chain" established this year and the scale effect of the entire Alibaba family of enterprises, Ant Chain has reduced the cost of on-chain for small and medium-sized enterprises from millions to thousands.

Data source: public data compiled by China Software Network

Whose face will be hurt the most by such a large, comprehensive, broad and widespread slap?

2｜Ant Chain aims at electronic contracts

What applications will Ant Chain replace? The first unlucky one must be the electronic contract.

Since the promulgation of the Electronic Signature Law of the People's Republic of China in 2005, national departments and agencies such as the National People's Congress, the State Council, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and the National Immigration Bureau have successively formulated many laws, regulations, and Standards have greatly promoted the development of the electronic contract industry. At the same time, electronic contract manufacturers such as e-sign, Fada, Shangshangshou, Trust, and Contract Lock were spawned.

Data source: public data compiled by China Software Network

According to public data statistics, the electronic contract market has been growing year after year. As of the end of 2019, the cumulative number of electronic contracts signed by eSignature has reached 10.5 billion times, with the average daily signing volume exceeding 20 million times. However, its main application scenarios are still focused on purchase and sale contracts for consumer terminals, transaction contracts with external companies, labor and social security document contracts related to human resources, as well as internal approval and certification documents within the enterprise.

Data source: public data compiled by China Software Network

The country promotes relevant norms and standards, and also promotes legal compliance.The four major elements of the regulations are: true intention, true identity, original text unchanged, and signature unchanged.

The traceable, tamper-proof, and partially decentralized solutions provided by blockchain's distributed ledger technology are naturally adaptable.

Data source public data compiled by China Software Network

In the environment of commercial transactions, there are often a large number of multi-node and complex process businesses, which often show linear relationships. Before these nodes Insufficient trust, repeated information confirmation and communication will cause a lot of efficiency losses. Distributed ledger technology is currently the best technical solution in this regard.

As soon as electronic contracts were born, they encountered blockchain. These two things, which were born almost at the same time, suddenly found a natural fit in 2020.

3｜Will Ant Chain completely replace electronic contracts?

The development path of Ant Chain is similar to that of Alibaba Cloud. Both were born and developed out of internal needs, and then transitioned to meet external needs to become a star business.

Starting from tracing Ant Charity’s project donations, it can range from managing Tmall’s cross-border products to providing supply chain financial services to internal companies, to protecting Taobao’s image copyrights and paying for Taobao products. Social security, electricity bills, and water bills have all completely found corresponding external demands.

It has begun to be applied in scenarios such as cold chain food management, tracing external payments, government finance, public welfare fund management, shipping port logistics and warehousing management, chip financing leasing, blockchain prescriptions, blockchain invoices, etc. .

Finally, we have achieved a little explosion in blockchain charity and a lot of flowering.

If Alibaba Cloud has solved the efficiency problem of cloud computing, then Ant Chain can be said to have solved the value problem of cloud computing. Ant Chain has opened up the physical world and the cloud world, and realized the digitization of assets and data. Breaking the ice on the boundaries of capitalization.

But in the final analysis, the cost cannot be avoided. Due to the complexity of blockchain technology, developing a blockchain application is a luxury for many companies. Developing a blockchain application requires investing millions of dollars, and it also requires connecting upstream and downstream to build a corporate ecosystem. The time and energy behind it cannot be underestimated.

This is the same for Ant. It has spent huge sums of money to build a blockchain application platform. In recent years, it has applied for more than a thousand patents every year. It will eventually need to be commercialized. Now through its ecological alliance, "open "Consortium Chain" directly reduces this threshold cost to thousands, which is almost consistent with the charges of electronic contract companies. It is a devastating blow to electronic contract companies.

Whether it is its consensus algorithm performance index (TPS) of more than 100,000 times/second, or the recently released all-in-one software and hardware and end-to-end trusted environment, the technical indicators of Ant Chain have ranked first in the world. Yiqi Juechen, far surpassing international alliance chains such as Fabric, Quorum and Corda. Combined with AliJudging from its strong business capabilities and government BD capabilities, it will never take more than 5 years to completely replace the current electronic contract form.

With the release of the Ant Chain all-in-one machine, the cost of enterprise on-chain is expected to be further reduced, and further optimization performance will be achieved in terms of deployment time, transaction speed, consensus delay, and accelerated cryptographic operations.

4｜How will blockchain contracts develop next?

What will happen to the current blockchain electronic contracts in the future? We look at the development of blockchain applications from four levels: business, industry development, products, and technology:

1) At the business level, judging from the current application scenarios, there are still many blank areas with " The potential of "on-chain" needs to be developed. At present, it is very compatible with the financial industry. It can connect with other financial businesses such as banking, insurance, and securities industries, and is expected to be further integrated with RPA.

2) From the perspective of industry development, not only Ant Chain, but also the pursuer Tencent Blockchain are trying to build an ecology and develop alliance chains. The alliance chain can greatly improve transaction efficiency and reduce transaction costs because of its "multi-centered" characteristics and the advantages of independent controllability, privacy protection, and high efficiency.

3) From a product level, the blockchain products of major manufacturers are all moving towards platform-oriented, whether it is Ant Chain’s BaaS platform or Tencent’s “TrustSQL”, they are all moving in the direction of platforms. Walk. In the future, small and medium-sized manufacturers can choose to join the SaaS camp of Internet giants, establish their own advantages in specific fields, and move in the direction of "small but beautiful".

Future on-chain applications are expected to provide users with diverse deployment models and product forms to meet personalized user needs. However, cross-chain data exchange and the adaptability of technology and data from different chains will be a challenge for these platform-based enterprises.

4) Since the development of blockchain, the three generations of public chains represented by BTC, ETH, and EOS have made varying degrees of sacrifices in terms of efficiency, security, and centralization. Although Ant Chain The technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, but these three mutually restricting indicators are still important problems that require continuous breakthroughs and are indispensable.

As the amount of data on the chain increases, this problem will become more and more obvious. It remains to be seen whether the current payment ability of Ant Chain customers can cover the costs.

6. Ant Group has released another blockbuster blockchain application. Can it create another "Alipay"?

Prior to this, Alibaba has repeatedly predicted that it will release a "subversive" application today. sexual products”. So, what pain points can Trusple solve? What are the application prospects? What difficulties and obstacles does the promotion of Trusple currently face?

Another “Alipay”

“Same as Alipay’s original intention of launching secured transactions, Trusple is also designed to solve the problem of transaction trust. The difference is that due to the outstanding characteristics of blockchain technology in solving trust in complex processes, Trusple better meets the needs of solving trust in international trade. Jiang Guofei, vice president of Ant Group and president of the Intelligent Technology Business Group, said.

Specifically, on the Trusple platform, when a buyer and seller generate a trade order, it will automatically go up the chain and start circulation. The payment terms agreed on the order are automatically paid, which avoids the need for sellers to urge buyers to perform offline transfers under the traditional model. It also prevents the frequent malicious delay in payment time. Buyers can also make payments based on real orders on the chain. Obtaining financial services such as account terms has greatly improved capital utilization and procurement efficiency.

For buyers and sellers, every successful transaction on Trusple is a deposit of "on-chain credit". When an enterprise has financing needs, financial institutions can submit a verification request to the Trusple platform to determine the authenticity of the enterprise's trade. In this way, on the one hand, it reduces the financial service risks of banks and other financial institutions, and at the same time, it also revitalizes the survival of small and medium-sized enterprises. and operational capabilities.

It is understood that five banks, including BNP Paribas, Citibank, DBS Bank, Deutsche Bank, and Standard Chartered Bank, have become Trusple’s first partners.

How complicated is the traditional trade financing business? The following is the bank’s letter of credit business flow chart:

As can be seen from the above, the traditional international trade financing model is not only complicated in process, but also requires high fees from banks. Service fee. If you have a blockchain trade settlement platform and develop a trade settlement contract, the exporter will directly place the advance payment in the smart contract. When the exporter's goods arrive at the destination, the system will verify that the documents are qualified before triggering the smart contract. Lending money to exporters not only has a simple process and low service fees, but more importantly, it can reduce the capital occupation cycle and improve capital efficiency.

"This is the case with Trusple currently launched by Ant Group, and Ant Chain also supports smart contract. " Li Lianxuan said.

To sum up, traditional cross-border trade and Trusple are the difference between centralization and decentralization. In the traditional trade model, banks serve as the center, providing transaction credit or financing facilities for buyers and sellers. To ensure the smooth progress of transactions, the "credit" in this is the third-party credit of the bank. As for the trust model of the blockchain, its "credit" comes from the blockchain itself and does not require a third-party intermediary.

Facing two major obstacles

The launch of Trusple has also realized a long-cherished wish of Alibaba for 19 years.

As early as 2001, Alibaba B2B company tried to use a model similar to the intermediary guarantee It solved the problem of mutual distrust between buyers and sellers in foreign trade transactions, but was unable to do so due to technical conditions. Two years later, the emergence of Alipay solved the problem of CTrust issues among 2C business users. However, because transactions between businesses are much more complex than between individuals, and payment methods and logistics methods are also very different, the plan 19 years ago has been shelved to this day. Until the emergence of blockchain provides new solutions. For this reason, Alibaba calls the launch of Trusple a major launch comparable to the birth of Alipay.

It is worth noting that although Trusple has similar functions to Alipay, both are designed to solve the trust problem between different subjects, but the solution ideas are completely opposite. Trusple aims to eliminate middle links and disintermediate, while Alipay is the largest intermediary with 1 billion users. Trusple only targets B-side users in cross-border trade, so it seems to be fine with Alipay for now. So if similar products are used in domestic C2C e-commerce scenarios in the future, it will revolutionize Alipay's life.

Alibaba’s Blockchain Layout

Blockchain is based on the characteristics of decentralization, openness and transparency, information traceability, anti-tampering, and automatic execution of smart contracts. It is a natural solution to trust issues. weapon. As The Economist said: Blockchain will become a “trust machine.” Therefore, Jack Ma said that Alibaba without blockchain would "die".

Jack Ma’s words are not alarmist. Alipay, which started as an e-commerce company, has played a key role in solving the trust issue between consumers and merchants in online transactions. It can be said that without Alipay, Alibaba would not have the e-commerce empire it has today. “Over the past decade or so, we have continued to promote the construction of trust mechanisms through technology and innovation,” Ant Group said in its IPO prospectus.

To this end, as early as 2015, Alibaba established a blockchain team and began to invest in blockchain research and development. In October 2017, Ant Financial (the predecessor of Ant Group) released the "BASIC Strategy" (blockchain, artificial intelligence, security, Internet of Things, cloud computing). In July this year, just before Ant Group applied for listing on the Science and Technology Innovation Board, Ant Blockchain was officially upgraded to "Ant Chain". Jack Ma personally named Ant Chain, which shows its status in the Alibaba ecosystem.

Today, Alibaba has implemented more than 50 blockchain application scenarios. Ant Chain is technically able to support 1 billion account sizes and can support 1 billion daily transactions, achieving 10 transactions per second. Wanbi cross-chain information processing capabilities (PPS).

In April this year, Ant’s “Open Alliance Chain” was officially launched, fully opening up its blockchain technology and application capabilities to small and medium-sized enterprises. Subsequently, the implementation of related blockchain applications further accelerated. In July, the Ant Chain all-in-one machine was released, which can save more than 90% of blockchain deployment time for government and enterprise developers; on September 18, it was opened to the public including data security computing hardware, The privacy and security "three-piece set" of 3D contract security services and data privacy computing services; Trusple is released today.

In terms of research and development, Alibaba’s blockchainIts patent applications have ranked first in the world for four consecutive years, and its self-developed cross-chain technology has also been recognized as an international standard.

According to the website of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, Ant Group’s Science and Technology Innovation Board IPO has entered the “submission for registration” stage. "After listing, the most important thing for Ant Group is to invest in technology. In the future, it will focus on investing in the five major technical fields of artificial intelligence, risk management, security, blockchain, computing and technical infrastructure." Ant Group CEO Hu Xiaoming said.

7. When will the national standard for blockchain technology be completed

my country has begun to establish a national standard for blockchain to promote the construction of the blockchain standard system from a top-level design. It is expected to be the fastest It will be completed by the end of 2019.

In this regard, Zhao Wu, founder of Beijing Huashun Xin'an Technology Co., Ltd., also said that although blockchain has disruptive technological potential, we must realize that blockchain The blockchain is still in its infancy and is far from reaching the stage where it can disrupt the world.

Yu Kequn emphasized that an independent and controllable blockchain network is not technically controlled by others, but can also promote the healthy development of the blockchain. Security is the future life of the blockchain, and only its own security can bring blockchain technology to fruition. This requires us to pay equal attention to the development of its security attributes while developing blockchain technology, and even develop it ahead of time.

In this regard, Li Ming also said that an important part of the standard is the standard of information security, which also shows the importance of security for blockchain technology. He also pointed out that the formulation of blockchain standards does not mean that it will rapidly promote the development of the industry, but rather gives certain guidance to the industry. Previously, China had suffered a lot in terms of international intellectual property rights and standards. In terms of blockchain, China has now formed more than 200 patents in international blockchain, and has even stood at the forefront of the world's technology. Therefore, we also need to firmly grasp our right to speak.

9. What blockchain technology application development platforms are currently available in China

The so-called blockchain technology, referred to as BT (Blockchain technology), is also called distributed ledger technology. It is an Internet database technology that is characterized by decentralization, openness and transparency, allowing everyone to participate in database records.

10. What are the NFTs that Tencent and Alibaba are competing to enter?

In June 2021, Alibaba and the Dunhuang Fine Arts Institute jointly released two NFTs, Dunhuang Feitian and Nine-Colored Deer. Skin, a global limited edition of 16,000 pieces, was sold out as soon as it was released.

On June 26, 2021, NetEase and Nervina Labs released their first NFT work on Taobao.

On August 3, 2021, Tencent’s NFT trading platform “Huanhe App” launched 300 “Vinyl Record NFTs” launched by “Thirteen Invitations” and sold out instantly.

China’s giant capitals are chasing each other, and the intensity is evident. At this point, people can’t help but ask, what is NFT?

First introduction to NFT

NFT (Non-fungible Token) refers to non-fungible tokens, which is relative to the concept of fungible tokens (FT) , each NFT has a unique and unique identification, two pairs are not interchangeable, the minimum unit is 1 and indivisible.

Our common BTC, ETH, etc. are all homogeneous tokens. For example, BTC, everyone owns the same BTC, they are interchangeable with each other, and they can also be divided into 0.1 pieces or 0.01 pieces, which can be divided without affecting the value and use.

NFT represents indivisible and non-interchangeable items in reality, such as a real estate certificate, a famous painting, a game equipment, etc. They are all unique existences and completely lose their value and practicality after being divided. The most typical ones are collectibles and artworks. These products with non-homogeneous genes are digitized and tokenized using blockchain technology, and they have become NFTs that are popular in the industry today.

NFT is unique

Economics stipulates that currency is a general equivalent and a carrier of value consensus. In modern society, personal wealth is no longer measured by currency holdings, but includes the value and quantity of assets in his name. Its assets include but are not limited to houses, cars, stocks and other items with market value. For most people, an asset carries a value that far exceeds the cash value of the asset they hold. However, real assets have two major flaws: poor liquidity and high confirmation costs. For example, the confirmation of the title of a house depends on the registration of the housing management committee to determine the final ownership of the property.

But in the blockchain world, the assets we currently have are BTC, ETH, etc. with monetary attributes. After the demand for monetary assets is met, a value medium for non-monetary assets will naturally emerge. This is NFT. Relying on the decentralization, non-tampering and cryptographic authentication characteristics of the blockchain, NFT solves a series of problems with real assets:

• The asset is unique and cannot be counterfeited

• Strong liquidity, real-time transactions;

• Cryptographically confirmed and cannot be tampered with.

In addition, NFT also has characteristics that cryptocurrency does not have. Its unique characteristics can be used for identity proof, item ownership proof, virtual props, etc. NFT makes crypto assets more practical, allowing users to transfer valuable assets toProducts are expanded in the form of NFT and protected by blockchain technology.

NFT explodes in popularity

But NFT is not a new thing this year. It has appeared in the public eye as early as 2017, but it is regarded more as an internal part of Ethereum. niche things.

So what is the real important driving force for NFT to come out of the circle?

Let me first ask a question: How much can a digital picture be sold for? The answer is $69.3 million!

On March 11, 2021, Beeple, an unknown painter, collaged daily paintings from the past thirteen years into a painting called "everyday: the first 5,000 days" (everyday: the first 5,000 days). A digital image of "the first 5000 days" was sold at Christie's for a sky-high price of US$69.3 million, shocking the world.

Overnight, NFT became a hot topic. The 40-year-old American painter also became wealthy overnight. The popularity of NFT has caused a huge sensation in many fields such as art, venture capital, and finance.

The NBA, Samsung, McDonald’s, Marvel, film and television stars in the business circle are all releasing their own NFT products, and the venture capital circle Sanjian Capital, Signum Capital, NGC Ventures, Coinbase, etc. have begun to invest. this field. Internet giants Tencent, JD.com, Facebook, Twitter, etc. are all laying out the NFT battlefield. The opportunities and challenges brought by NFT are no less than those brought by mobile Internet to the Internet.

From a business history perspective, iPhone, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. were initially used by people in the industry. After it emerged from various directions such as marketing, products, and trends of the times, the entire society and people began to use it, and it evolved from an initial product for a specific group of people into a mass infrastructure. Although the development of NFT is still in its early stages, the emergence of NFT this time will continue the historical trajectory, accelerate the application of blockchain technology in reality, and is of great significance to promoting the digitalization process of society.

The future of NFT is promising

In addition to the emergence of artworks, will NFT have wider applications? Through the above analysis of NFT, we can find that NFT will be widely used in the future. For example, the recently popular NFT+DeFi and NFT+game gameplay, as well as the concept of the metaverse, are inseparable from the future development of NFT. The physical application of NFT will solve many problems for society, such as:

First, in the field of intellectual property, NFT can represent a painting, a song, a patent, a video, a photo, or other intellectual property. NFT can help every unique thing register copyright and help identify patents.

Second, physical assets, houses and other real estate and other physical assets are digitized through NFT. It can be used as a financial market for the circulation of assets.

Third, records and identification, the unique characteristics of NFT can be used to verify identity and birth certificates, driver's licenses, academic certificates, etc. to prevent abuse or tampering.

There will be many physical applications of NFT in the future, which will definitely solve various practical problems for society. This must be the ultimate goal of the capital deployment of various giants. As the world's first physical digital economy token trading platform based on blockchain, BtLux focuses on the implementation of blockchain scenarios that are closely related to ordinary people's lives.

Different from other virtual currencies without value support, Biyao regards the innovation of the underlying blockchain as an important breakthrough for independent innovation of core technology. It uses the transaction, calculation, recording and other functions of the blockchain to meet the needs of Under the conditions of supervision, it promotes the execution of real economic activities on the chain, while realizing the market operation and market value management of digital assets after listing, redefining the interest distribution relationship between producers, consumers and participants, and forming a new financial and business model.

Soon, Biyao will accelerate the integration of NFT and physical enterprises based on years of experience in the implementation of blockchain physical scenarios, provide top-level business structure design and digital economic model design for physical enterprises, and jointly build a "district" "Blockchain" + "new ecology" can benefit all participants in the entire chain, bring tangible benefits to the real economy and the entire society, gain widespread recognition from society, and make digital currency become living water in the great cycle of the real economy. It will flow and bring more vitality and new impetus to the real economy.

NFT is a new world brought about by the era of technological explosion, and the digitalization process of the real world will also be greatly accelerated in the next ten years. In the future, NFT can only promote the accelerated and deep integration of the real economy and the digital economy, and the technical value of blockchain will gradually emerge in this process. Only then can it bring about new business models, reconstruct distribution models, market structures, organizational forms, and industries. Relationships will push mankind towards a new era of digital civilization, and Biyao will become an indispensable promoter.
