Is blockchain the real estate of 20 years ago
in short, blockchain is a community-based technology, which can make value exchange more secure. Blockchain is their name 
therefore, chain operation has a huge impact on the people, creating the greatest value for the enterprise and bringing more convenience to the people
There is no doubt that blockchain has development prospects, and the necessary condition for development prospects is to enter the mainstream market
North America blockchain infrastructure the oan (former aion network) founder and CEO Matt spoke published an article entitled "in order to successfully enter the mainstream market, blockchain projects must" eat dog food "in Forbes on July 24, in which Matt mentioned his views on how blockchain should enter the mainstream market - & quot; Eat dog food
in the science and technology circle, there is a jargon called & quot; Eat dog food Dogfood (also known as eating your own dog food) refers to companies using their own procts and becoming users of their own procts. Many high growth companies (such as Microsoft, Facebook, Amazon, apple, Netflix and Google) also test their procts by "eating dog food" or help build credibility“ "Eat dog food" is often used to find and fix bugs, but it has another value: to create reliable use cases for the company's procts
this is worth learning from blockchain projects, because blockchain projects often hold & quot; Once built, they (users) will come naturally, which habitually leaves the responsibility of creating new and interesting blockchain applications to a third party
this attitude is very common, even the well-known blockchain summit consensus 2019 also held a conference entitled & quot; Once built, they (users) will naturally come: to build a global blockchain Center & quot; To discuss how governments around the world can make efforts to attract blockchain projects while balancing regulatory, investment and innovation needs
to be fair, this strategy may be effective for blockchains that only focus on people in the currency circle. For the security token, especially for the exchange represented by the transaction, it makes more sense - "supply creates demand" is the usual idea here, especially considering that the realization of these transactions requires the construction of complex infrastructure
in contrast, "eat dog food" is more likely to be adopted by blockchain project developers who seek mainstream audiences (such as those in financial instry, manufacturing and supply chain, identity management, etc.). If blockchain technology wants to enter these mainstream fields, blockchain companies must first "eat dog food". This can not only clearly prove that blockchain technology is feasible outside the coin circle, but also highlight that blockchain can not only optimize existing use cases, but also create new use cases
and the oan team has been adhering to this concept, and relying on the oan and aion's technology stack built over the years, it has developed a financial technology platform moves for independent workers
Matt said that in the development and development of moves, the team hopes that the relevant functions of the OAN blockchain network can be brought into full play, so it will focus on the following three aspects:
1. How to use the OAN blockchain network to improve the credit efficiency of the proct there are two main considerations to improve credit efficiency: 1) can we use the mechanism of the defi market to rece the cost of capital; 2) Can the blockchain technology be used to increase the external trust in the credit process of moves. Here, moves will form a mechanism of "pooling wisdom", so that everyone can contribute to recing credit risk and increasing the credibility of credit process, and may even develop a micro guarantee mechanism in the future. Therefore, users will be able to participate in the market established by the platform as borrowers, lenders or guarantors
specifically, by connecting moves with the oan network, and with the help of digital asset aion, a relationship of interest consistency is formed between procts and users, so that users can personally experience the success of moves procts and directly participate in the oan, a blockchain network supporting moves
3. How to create the first open system of financial reputation data with moves
this open system may become a substitute for traditional credit scores or related mechanisms. Over the years, banks and financial institutions have been using Equifax, Fico or other similar institutions' scores as risk indicators, and the moves team believes that the procts they are building will be a good start - the beginning of a more perfect and modern financial reputation system. This is a long-term goal
moves supports North American mainstream carpooling, take out and other casual work economic platforms, and will be the flagship open application developed by the oan on its blockchain network. In June, moves expanded its operations from Ontario to Alberta and British Columbia into western Canada
all the initiatives of the oan team adhere to the spirit of "eating dog food" and strive to make blockchain technology enter the mainstream market as soon as possible. Blockchain is not for the minority, but for the mainstream. In addition to the oan team, many projects and institutions in the blockchain instry are also aiming at this goal. Can you say that such an excellent and targeted blockchain has no development prospects
"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.
I. blockchain 1.0 cryptocurrency era (2008-2013)
&
in 2008, Nakamoto first proposed the concepts of bitcoin and blockchain, and then in January 2009, the first blockchain came out. At this stage, people pay more attention to the transaction of cryptocurrency, and blockchain is only used as the underlying technology to act as a "public account book"< br />
2. Blockchain 2.0 smart contract era (2014-2017)
&
in 2014, & quot; Blockchain 2.0 "has become the pronoun of decentralized blockchain database. At this stage, people mainly focus on the application of the platform. Anyone can upload and execute the smart contract on the blockchain, and will be rewarded automatically after the execution. Because this transaction process does not need any intermediary, so people's privacy has been greatly protected< br />
III. blockchain 3.0 large scale application era (2018 -)
&
at this stage, people begin to build a completely decentralized data network, and the application of blockchain technology is no longer limited to the economic field, but expanded to the fields of art, law, real estate, hospital, human resources and so on.
Because the blockchain technology is not mature at this stage, and the infrastructure is not perfect, many applications are limited, and the overall application is still in a very early stage
First of all, the main function of blockchain is to store information. Any information that needs to be saved can be written to or read from the blockchain, so it is a database. Secondly, anyone can set up a server and join the blockchain network to become a node. In the world of blockchain, there is no central node (decentralization). Every node is equal and keeps the whole database. You can write / read data to any node, because all nodes will be synchronized in the end to ensure the consistency of the blockchainIn 2020, blockchain will be included in the scope of "new infrastructure" by the state, and at least seven provinces will issue blockchain support policies. In the same year, blockchain technology is graally moving from concept to implementation, and the application scenarios are blooming“ Blockchain + "has become a symbol of the continuous maturity of blockchain< Novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic swept the world in BR />
2020,
2020. The uncertainty of world economic development has increased significantly. Governments and enterprises around the world explore the use of emerging technologies to rece the cost of economic and social operation, improve the efficiency of the real economy, and further seek new growth points for economic development
at present, with the cross innovation of blockchain, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other new technology infrastructure, more and more vertical fields of real economy present the development pattern of "blockchain +" and the good momentum of "from virtual to real"
in order to avoid the transition from real to virtual, in addition to continuing to crack down on speculation, we must also guide the deep integration of blockchain technology and practical application scenarios. Therefore, various instrial application scenarios of "blockchain +" have become one of the inevitable trends of blockchain development
according to the white paper on blockchain (2020) recently released by China Academy of information and communication, as of October 2020, more than 262 listed companies have set foot in the field of blockchain, including 39 fields such as insurance, real estate, commercial department stores, security equipment, packaging materials and telecom operation. In the blockchain information service record list published by the state Internet Information Office, the number of blockchain projects of listed companies has reached 45
among them, finance is the most explored scenario in the application scenarios of blockchain technology, and there are specific projects in supply chain finance, trade financing, payment and clearing, fund management and other sub fields. According to the white paper, as of November 2020, among the registered blockchain information services in China, the number of projects in the field of Finance (including supply chain finance) ranked first, accounting for 36%
with the acceleration of the implementation of blockchain applications, "blockchain +" business has become the development focus for Internet backbone enterprises to enter the blockchain instry. Besides financial business, actively deploy Internet, traceability and supply chain & amp; Logistics, digital assets, government and public services, intellectual property, law, medical and other fields
at the same time, it is graally understood in the instry that blockchain is the basic component of trusted transactions, but this does not mean that blockchain can take over the world. It is necessary to combine blockchain with other technologies such as artificial intelligence, Internet of things, big data, 5g, etc., and form an integrated solution by using synergy effect to jointly help digital transformation
according to the relevant data, at present, the application of blockchain is mainly in the field of certificate keeping, and blockchain has entered the stage of how to make it better, more reliable, more stable, better expansibility, and able to accommodate more nodes from the perspective of engineering. He Baohong, director of the Institute of cloud computing and big data, China Academy of information technology, believes that this process will continue for a period of time or more, and the next step is to shift the technical competition of blockchain from engineering optimization to technology ecology and business ecology
in addition, it is understood that the blockchain instry has been improving for a long time, and the instry cognition has returned to rationality. With the central government's planning guidance for the development of blockchain technology, China's blockchain has made it clear that it is based on the alliance chain, focusing on the development idea of serving the real economy and optimizing public services, and the direction of instrial development is further clear. At this stage, the majority of practitioners' confidence in the blockchain continues to improve, and generally recognize the long-term strategic value of the blockchain
what is the prospect of "blockchain +" in 2021
with the graal improvement of China's blockchain instry chain, most blockchain enterprises not only focus on one aspect, but also present the trend of multi field collaborative development. According to statistics, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Shandong are the provinces and cities with the largest number of registered enterprises among the 801 blockchain information service filing lists published by the state Internet information office
the core role of blockchain corresponding to the technical characteristics is mainly reflected in the three aspects of certificate deposit, automatic cooperation and value transfer. With its value potential being continuously exploited, the application landing scenario has graally expanded from the financial breakthrough to the real economy, government affairs and people's livelihood and other fields
and the core value of blockchain for the real economy is to promote the efficient cooperation between the upstream and downstream instries and enhance the efficiency of the combination of instry and finance. In the early stage of development, the application mode of blockchain mainly focuses on the deposit of documents and contracts. At the present stage, the application of blockchain instry is graally moving towards automatic collaboration and value interconnection such as government data sharing, supply chain collaboration and cross-border trade
2020 is the warm-up of 2021. In 2021, the use of blockchain, distributed ledger and smart contract tools will continue to grow as in 2020. With the deepening of blockchain technology, the instrial foundation of blockchain will be better and better, the instrial ecology will also develop rapidly, and the instrial chain will be widely distributed
from the perspective of instrial structure, blockchain instry is mainly divided into four parts: underlying technology, platform services, instrial applications and peripheral services
the first three parts show a relatively obvious upstream and downstream relationship. The underlying technology part provides the necessary technical procts and components of the blockchain, the platform service part builds a blockchain platform based on the underlying technology to run the corresponding instry applications, and the instrial application part mainly uses the blockchain technology to develop instry applications according to the actual scenarios of various instries, Realize the innovation of business collaboration mode in the instry
peripheral services provide support services for the instry, including instry organization, market research, standard formulation, system evaluation and certification, instry media, etc., which provide power for the development of instrial ecology
among them, as far as the instrial application of blockchain is concerned, blockchain is not only the result of innovation and development of information technology, but also the main booster of business process reconstruction and instrial interaction mode innovation of various instries
blockchain has graally expanded from the initial digital finance to supply chain finance, proct traceability and other fields, and now it has been applied in government affairs, people's livelihood, instrial management and other instries, with increasingly rich application scenarios, showing a trend of deep integration with other instries
at present, domestic enterprises focus on serving the real economy and improving the application development related to government affairs and people's livelihood, among which supply chain finance and proct traceability have accounted for half of all applications, and other areas such as government affairs and people's livelihood have become the key layout areas of manufacturers in the future, which is about to see explosive growth
after the cooling of blockchain investment in 2020, the blockchain instry may graally become rational in 2021. However, a relatively complete instrial chain and active market players provide a good foundation for the development of blockchain instry. The blockchain instry will also show a positive development trend in policy support, ecological construction, platform service, application landing and integration innovation
