Blockchain development data
blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies. Blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin,
in essence, it is a decentralized database. At the same time, as the underlying technology of bitcoin, it is a series of data blocks generated by using cryptographic methods. Each data block contains a batch of information of bitcoin network transactions, Used to verify the validity of its information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block
extended data
most blockchain public chains are limited by scalability. The biggest feature of blockchain technology is decentralization, which requires that all accounts in the network need to deal with the accounting process. Distributed accounting has high security, low misoperation rate, political neutrality and correctness
however, blockchain technology embraces these features at the same time, sacrificing scalability, unable to meet the personalized supervision, and slightly insufficient in protecting data privacy. Moreover, with the increase of the number of ledger, the interaction delay will increase exponentially, that is to say, the more ledger in the blockchain network, the higher the delay
driven by policy and market, China's blockchain related instries are expected to move from virtual to real
in the context of rapid development of blockchain, China should comply with the needs of globalization, keep up with the international pace, and actively promote the research, standardization and instrialization development of domestic blockchain related fields. Compared with the increasingly stringent supervision of bitcoin and other digital currencies, the support and encouragement of blockchain technology has reached a consensus in the world, and the domestic blockchain technology will also receive national and local policy support in the next few years. Driven by policy and market, blockchain related instries are expected to move from virtual to real, and blockchain technology will accelerate the exploration of possible application scenarios< According to the data of the "in depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of blockchain instry" released by foresight Instry Research Institute, the global blockchain market scale is expected to increase from US $411.5 million in 2017 to US $7683.7 million in 2022, with a compound annual growth rate of 79.6%. In view of the wide application range of distributed ledger, the rising market value of cryptocurrency, the strong demand for improving transparency, security, efficiency and simplifying process, and the popularity of blockchain as a service (
baas), the blockchain market will expand rapidly. In addition, communication services, international trade, supply chain management, programming platform, payment, smart contract, digital authentication and so on are also in urgent need of blockchain technology, which will create a lot of growth opportunities
as an integrated application of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other technologies, blockchain has become a research hotspot of the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund and other international organizations as well as many national governments in recent years, and the instry has also increased investment. At present, the application of blockchain has extended to the Internet of things, intelligent manufacturing, supply chain management, digital asset trading and other fields, which will bring new opportunities for the development of cloud computing, big data, mobile Internet and other new generation information technology, and have the ability to trigger a new round of technological innovation and instrial change
by 2022, the payment sector may occupy the largest share of the blockchain market
relying on blockchain technology, real-time payment of assets can be realized, which not only has the characteristics of tamper proof and digital authentication, but also can greatly save the cost of settlement for financial institutions and banks. In addition, blockchain makes payment automation possible, eliminates the need for middlemen, and saves labor costs and time for buyers and sellers. Thanks to the above advantages, it is expected that the payment sector will be the heaviest one in the whole blockchain market
the fastest growing region will be the Asia Pacific region.
blockchain service providers in the Asia Pacific region are good at designing and developing cryptocurrency platforms with friendly interface, cost saving and high speed, and extending the application of blockchain in many instries. Both large enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises are actively seeking risk financing, investing in and developing the most cutting-edge blockchain technology. In addition, the real estate instry of some countries in the Asia Pacific region is expected to rapidly transform from translucency to full transparency, which also helps to enhance the development prospects of blockchain in the Asia Pacific region.
"the times 03 / Jan / 2009 Chancellor on brink of second low for banks (on January 3, 2009, the chancellor of the exchequer was on the verge of implementing the second round of bank emergency assistance)."
at that time, the British Chancellor of the exchequer, darling, was forced to consider a second attempt to relieve the banking crisis, which was the headline of the front page article of the times that day
the time stamp service and existence proof of blockchain, the time generated by the first blockchain and the events that happened at that time are permanently preserved
BTCC, a bitcoin company, launched a service "Millennium chain" in 2015, namely blockchain lettering service, which is based on the above principles. Users can use this service to engrave text on the blockchain and save it permanently
bitcoin, Ruitai coin, Laite coin, dogcoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies will use blockchain technology.
blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies. Blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin. It is essentially a decentralized database. At the same time, as the underlying technology of bitcoin, it is a series of data blocks generated by using cryptographic methods. Each data block contains a batch of information about bitcoin network transactions, Used to verify the validity of its information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block. In fact, the original English version of bitcoin white paper [1] does not use the word blockchain, but uses the word chain of blocks. In the earliest Chinese translation of bitcoin white paper [2], chain of blocks was translated into blockchain. This is the earliest time when the Chinese word "blockchain" appeared.
1. Decentralization
the core advantage of blockchain technology is that it does not need a traditional centralized organization, and does not rely on the point-to-point transaction, coordination and cooperation of a credit center in the distributed system, so as to avoid the common problems of data security, collaborative efficiency and risk control of centralized organizations
2. High security
in blockchain technology, data is difficult to tamper with. Anyone can access the database that records transactions. In this transparent and open mode, everyone can act as a supervisor. We can see at a glance what changes have taken place in the data, which is more secure than traditional technology
3. More reliable
the blockchain technology is connected by multiple nodes in different places. The nodes in the blockchain interact through the point-to-point communication protocol. Under the condition of ensuring the consistency of the communication protocol, different nodes can be processed by different developers using different programming languages and different versions of the whole node
in short, when a node encounters network problems, hardware failures, software errors or is controlled by hackers, the operation of other participating nodes and systems will not be affected
therefore, blockchain is more reliable than traditional technology
therefore, I firmly believe that the application of blockchain must be the development trend in the future.
In 2014, Barry Silbert, founder of secondmarket, separated the bitcoin investment fund from the original company and established grayscale investments
in 2015, gray investment company was merged into the newly established digital currency group (DCG). DCG is not only focused on digital currency and blockchain investment, but also an incubator for start-ups. In addition to gray investment company, DCG also has two subsidiaries, namely, genesis, a cryptocurrency OTC broker, coindesk, a blockchain news and information website, and more than 150 other blockchain companies / projects invested
after years of development, gray investment company has become the largest cryptocurrency asset management company in the world, and its cryptocurrency trust scale has reached US $2.58 billion
{rrrrrrr}
extended information:
in 2013, Barry Silbert, the founder, convinced the board of directors of secondmarket company to set up a bitcoin investment fund called bitcoin investment trust, which is the predecessor of gray scale bitcoin trust. It was not until September 2017 that gray investment's bitcoin trust fund began to grow explosively
it has become the largest bitcoin investment trust in the world, with more than 408500 bitcoins, nearly 2% of the total. In addition to bitcoin trust funds, gray investment company also launched BCH, ETH, etc, horizon, LTC, XLM, XRP and Zec trust funds, as well as grayscale digital large capital fund with mainstream currencies. Gray investment company's cryptocurrency trust procts provide convenience for institutional users to purchase cryptocurrency
The sudden epidemic situation has pressed the "pause" button for many instries, but science and technology is the most effective means to fight against disasters. Blockchain technology has realized the combination with finance, logistics, supply chain, government affairs, public welfare, urban management and other application fields. At the same time, e to the imperfect development of technology, the role of blockchain in the prevention and control of the epidemic is very limited, so we need to explore deeper scenario applications
from the survey data, the main application directions of instrial blockchain in the post epidemic period include: traceability, financial (including insurance) supervision, collaborative sharing. Deposit certificate, digitization, credit investigation, digital asset transaction, etc
in the main application direction of instrial blockchain in the post epidemic period, more than 70% of enterprises choose traceability and financial (including insurance) supervision, in addition to collaborative sharing and certificate deposit. Digital also has more than 60% of the enterprise choice, compared with the low choice rate of credit reference and digital asset transaction, in which the choice rate of digital asset transaction is less than 50%, only 48%
to avoid risks and promote the healthy development of instrial blockchain
as an emerging technology development direction and instrial development field, blockchain has been widely concerned. The application of instrial blockchain is accelerating, which is mainly reflected in two aspects:
first, in the past, open source systems were represented in technology, and most of them were open source projects oriented to consumers, but now many projects oriented to instry and enterprise characteristics have been added; At the same time, more and more enterprises such as Internet giants and high-tech enterprises begin to enter this field, indicating that the era of instrial blockchain has come
secondly, the emergence of blockchain reces the threshold of trust and the cost of realization, enabling some financial and trade scenarios that could not be realized before to be realized. In this way, some new financial forms can be derived, providing more space for financial innovation
although the application of instrial blockchain is speeding up, it is still in an early stage of development. This is mainly reflected in the fact that blockchain technology alone can not fully solve the trust problems and information island problems between entities, and the emergence of blockchain technology also puts forward new problems for the current law and regulation
because of its decentralized and difficult to tamper with characteristics, blockchain has become a comprehensive subject driven by technology and deeply affecting economy, finance, society, organizational form and governance. In addition, blockchain technology is not yet fully mature in system stability, application security, business model and other aspects, which puts forward requirements for privacy protection and storage capacity of data on the chain
it should be noted that the current blockchain instry has been involved in many technical fields such as it, communication, security, cryptography and so on. What it needs is a kind of compound talents, which poses new challenges to personnel training and school ecation
the short-term impact of blockchain should be treated calmly to avoid overestimation. At the same time, it is necessary to further strengthen laws and regulations and supervision to avoid the possible risks of blockchain technology, so as to promote the healthy development of instrial blockchain
