Financial industry uses blockchain
blockchain technology has the advantages of being difficult to tamper with and easy to trace. It can play a role in identity information management, trust mechanism construction, and credit information chain of small and micro enterprises
here is an example of a bank in Nanping:
e to the outbreak of online business, the original offline signing method has been unable to meet the needs of the rapid change of the banking business, and the bank's digital construction is imminent, but the bank's risk control department has strict compliance requirements:
< UL >online business data sensitive privacy, Is the transmission secure
does the electronic signature have legal effect
can electronic evidence be accepted by the court
these concerns have become obstacles for banks to introce e-contracts and carry out business digital transformation
after adopting the unique ENA initiative forensics patent technology of the "real hammer" trusted electronic evidence platform, a bank in Nanping, through the clean server of the notary office, online carries out real-time preservation, storage and certification of the electronic data of the target system, records the whole process of the electronic data from generation, transmission to storage, and finally the notary office issues the forensics preservation report with official seal, The effectiveness of the documents is notarial documents, which can be directly accepted by the court. Because the report is issued by the notary office, it has more credibility than the self certification of the third-party E-contract platform, which solves the concerns of the risk control department of the bank at one stroke. The whole process is online and automated, and the front-end customer operation has no perception
at the same time, combined with the back-end case system of "real hammer" and the outsourcing execution service, the bank realized the rapid dispute resolution of Internet business. It not only ensures the compliance and effectiveness of the electronic contract signing process, but also solves the problem that the bank cases are scattered all over the country and the cost of legal business trip is high; The litigation cycle is long and there is no efficient disposal channel
Application of blockchain technology in banking
2.1 self regulatory platform
we rarely see a platform that can conct self-regulation without intervention. In all areas similar to the financial instry, central banks and regulators (such as the securities and Exchange Commission) come to set uniform rules and manage them. Blockchain technology makes the system no longer need the supervision from enterprises or government entities, so as to regulate the operation of the system. Blockchain provides a mechanism called "workload proof", which allows each computer node in the system to participate in the approval of each transaction. The system has built-in check and balance mechanism to ensure that no computer in the system can deceive the system. All of these reviews and supervisions are completely automated by the computer. At present, there are many other consensus models that can replace the "workload proof" mechanism, but still retain the core idea that each client or node can manage the system point-to-point. What's more, blockchain makes every element in the system completely transparent. Therefore, for such a large-scale community all over the world, blockchain technology can easily review and manage it - "supervision from the public", thus effectively recing fraud. Imagine how much it can save costs and improve efficiency
2.2 compliance with the law and easy tracking
actors (users) and their behaviors (sending money or assets to others) are recorded on the blockchain. Any transaction between the two parties can be tracked and inquired, and can be proved in court. This is because all transactions need a set of public key / private key to encrypt and decrypt processing and transactions. Once they are added to the blockchain, they are permanent and unchangeable. Any record, once written to the blockchain, cannot be tampered with. Anyone holding assets or digital currency on the blockchain will have their own public key on the blockchain. When a transaction occurs, it needs to be signed by the previous holder who controls these assets using the private key. Blockchain also allows a variety of mechanisms for transactions. For example, it can be set to require two people to jointly sign a transaction. In a system without endorsement of enterprises or government, the legally binding mechanism can greatly enhance the trust factor for the system
2.3 built in business continuity
a global platform can not bear the risk of downtime when concting major transactions. Blockchain, a complete point-to-point network, has many distributed nodes and computer servers to support, which has high reliability. Every node in the system keeps a of the complete blockchain data. This makes the whole network highly fault-tolerant, if any part of a few nodes have problems, it will not affect the other parts of the network continue to operate. This makes it possible to achieve 24 / 7 all-weather operation characteristics like disaster recovery center or database rendancy center without using complex technology
2.4 evolution model without burden
in the system, there are a series of rules and key points to help decide who has the right to approve the transaction and what needs to be reviewed before the transaction is written into the blockchain. Blockchain technology can fork out new versions according to different environments and business model requirements. The new version also needs to conform to the overall concept of blockchain. All these changes must be approved by all members of the system, and everyone can get the same benefits. In addition, these changes will not affect the transactions that have occurred and confirmed on the blockchain. For a system, it has enough robustness and flexibility. People often compare the similarities between the Internet and blockchain, including their growth potential and business prospects. These two systems have very similar characteristics. The Internet does not need or does not have a centralized management department (except for a few for the management of agreed URL and domain name registration), but also has enough rendancy and strong fault tolerance. The Internet has been developing for so many years, from basic text to rich graphics, video, animation, and all this has not affected other existing systems and content. Blockchain has fully proved its function and practicability in bitcoin system. Just as the famous Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu said, "the tree that embraces is born at the end of a tree."; The platform of nine layers starts from the base soil; A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. " I think this should be the creed of all the pioneers of blockchain technology
as a rookie of Bubi blockchain, I tell you so much!
