1. There are two methods: buy back and lock up or buy back and destroy. The former aims to sacrifice liquidity for a short-term good gimmick + theoretical deflation. The method is to buy back through the secondary market. Of course, there is also the practice of transferring money directly from the primary market to the lock address. In this case, we should pay attention to monitoring the capital flow of the lock address, which generally occurs in the public chain projects. Comparatively speaking, repo lock is better than repo destroy to reflect the sincerity of the project party, because the repo part will be directly put into the "black hole address" which can be checked, so as to cash in the positive, and attract new investors through the actual deflation and positive pull. Moreover, unlike the buyback lock, which can recover assets, the long-term benefits of buyback destruction are considerable
mainly speaking, it depends on the project party's idea. Gongxinbao and Xingyun chain both adopt the buyback lock mode, while trip of platform currency and blockchain tourism projects on several major platforms uses the buyback destruction mode. The former two brothers were very popular at that time, but they are not making any noise now, and the latter are still developing well. I don't know which mode eke belongs to

With the development of digital economy, great changes have taken place in people's consumption patterns. The former means of cash payment are being replaced by various means of payment. Even when people go out, they seldom carry cash. In addition, with the intervention of bitcoin, lightcoin and other virtual currencies, the virtual currency with blockchain as the underlying technology is graally moving towards the vision of ordinary people
In addition, fan Yifei said that changes in the traditional business environment have led to various challenges in the work of money and gold, and new changes in the issuance and circulation of RMB. In this regard, the central bank needs to strengthen prevention and resolve the risks of money circulation3. Blockchain technology can be applied to many instries:
Art Instry
ascribe allows artists to declare ownership, issue numbered and limited edition works, and aim at any type of artwork in digital form. It even includes a trading market where artists can buy and sell through their websites without any intermediary services
legal instry
bitproof is the most advanced of many document time stamp applications emerging in recent years, which will make the traditional notarization method a thing of the past. Bitproof offers more services than versions including blocksgin and originstaemp, including one for intellectual property. Interestingly, bitproof recently cooperated with an it school in San Francisco to put their students' academic certificates on the blockchain, completely redefining how to handle and use diplomas and student certificates
development instry
colu is the first enterprise to allow other enterprises to issue digital assets. They can "token" all kinds of assets and make a profound impact on many people. Although the bitcoin wallet couperparty also allows the issuance of simple tokens and transactions among other wallet holders, the tokens of colu can be set with various states and types, and can be detached from or returned to the system. When the data stored on the blockchain is too large, the data can be stored on the BitTorrent network
network mutual aid instry
concentric mutual aid is the first blockchain network mutual aid platform to be implemented and applied. Technically, through blockchain and big data technology, the defects of traditional network mutual aid mode can be eliminated, and a new open and transparent network mutual aid platform can be established.

4. We know that the state has always advocated "no money" blockchain. That is to say, don't use the chain&# 8204;&# 8204;&# 8204; Currency, support technology development, do not support issuing currency
of course, the coin here is what we often call token, which originally means token (temporary) in computer identity authentication. With the popularity of blockchain and digital currency, people have a variety of translations for token, including token, integral, certificate, logo, indicator, etc
the understanding of token in the market can be divided into two categories
in the first category, 99% of the people think token means token, because 99.9% of the projects do the same thing. Set up a foundation, build a website, write a white paper, and then go to ICO. Because most of the projects are still in the conceptual stage, token itself has no other meaning except trading, so people call it token, which performs the function of currency to some extent
in the second category, professionals and institutions are more willing to translate token into proof of equity, or token. For example, a person's identity certificate, academic certificate, equity, bonds, points, bills, etc., are authentic and tamperable because of the proof of rights and interests. Every proof of interest becomes more secure and reliable through the protection of cryptography
therefore, blockchain is not only a technology, but also a new mode of proction and organization, even a new thinking
so, the question now is, does the blockchain project have to issue currency
answer: you may not issue currency. Not all blockchain projects need to be issued with currency, and it is not necessarily blockchain projects that issue currency
for example, the alliance chain does not need to issue coins. For example, Tencent's q-coin, in principle, is also a kind of currency, but it is not a blockchain project
therefore, the two are not related, but if they are public chains, they need to issue coins. Why
let's take bitcoin as an example. Bitcoin system as a public chain must rely on the existence of bitcoin. Public chain obtains the stability and non tamperability of its system through the nodes distributed all over the world, and these properties are the basis for the existence of public chain
imagine that if the bitcoin system is unstable or can be easily tampered with, bitcoin will be worthless. These nodes are not set up by one or several companies, otherwise they are equivalent to private chain or alliance chain. These nodes must be built dynamically by many participants. And the existence of these nodes must need some kind of incentive, otherwise why do the builders of these nodes want to participate in your system. And this kind of incentive must be integrated with the blockchain system, and it must be money
then why is it currency, not legal currency, such as RMB, as an incentive
if RMB is used as incentive, because RMB should be stored in the RMB account, and the account itself is centralized, so it's easy to be controlled. Just think about why domestic bitcoin exchanges are so afraid of the central bank, and they are afraid of being weaned. In addition, RMB can't react with smart contracts within the blockchain
the electronic currency issued by the central bank can not be used as the original currency and incentive of a blockchain system. Why
if the central bank or a rich person wants to destroy a project, they just need to take out enough e-money to do enough nodes and attack 51%. Therefore, it is impossible to use the e-money issued by the central bank as the original currency and incentive blockchain system. However, blockchain projects with independent native currency and incentives have no such worries
If a person or organization wants to get enough nodes to carry out 51% attacks, it must first get more than 50% enough coins, and the amount of coins in the market is certain, so before it gets enough coins, the soaring price will make it hard for him to bear
therefore, a public chain project must have money. A public chain project without money is like a castrated person
in addition, only through the token and reasonable stimulation of output, can the proction relationship be changed and the value of blockchain be brought into play. Therefore, the project must have token, which can promote the development of the project faster. Token solves the problem of incentive and consensus, and incentive solves the problem of autonomy. The positive autonomous economic ecosystem and the underlying technology of blockchain are a perfect combination.

5. The issue of bitcoin is determined by the block height, that is, the distance from the No. 0 block of Genesis. Now when the number is reached, the total amount of bitcoin should be limited. After this village, there will be no store. If the miners dig a block but don't receive the reward of the block, the bitcoin will be destroyed forever
coinbase transaction is a special transaction that generates bitcoin "out of thin air". Only miners can write this kind of transaction, and the number of generated bitcoin is limited by rules (new currency reced by half for every 210000 blocks + transaction fee for this block)
however, the rules do not stipulate that the miner must take away all the rewards that can be taken, and can choose not to take them
therefore, a mine pool connected with the RSK side chain has made a bug before, forgetting to take away the reward and occupying a pit in a block for nothing, which is equivalent to destroying the corresponding amount of bitcoin, making the total amount of bitcoin decrease a little bit permanently
in addition, to spend a bitcoin, you only need to specify the transaction ID and output serial number
as like as two peas in multiple blocks repeatedly write identical coinbase transactions, the transaction ID is also repeated.
therefore, this kind of situation also occupies the pit of a block in vain, and permanently destroys the corresponding amount of bitcoin
it seems to me that this is still a security vulnerability, so the new version of bitcoin software later banned the writing of repeated coinbase transactions. But until now, there has been no ban on miners not getting their e rewards
generally speaking, a coin is controlled by a private key. If a coin is transferred to an address where no one knows the private key, it will be destroyed
if the owner does a good job in security, and the private key is not disclosed and cannot be guessed, but he accidentally loses the private key, it is equivalent to destroying all the coins he owns
there are only some special circumstances that require intentional destruction of coins
one is irreversibly converted into another kind of currency, such as the contract currency XCP attached to bitcoin and wormhole cash WHC attached to BCH
the second is to save certificates and data on the chain, such as the time stamp: panbiao.com/2013/08 /
and the crowd funding of the original Ethereum founding team: zhuanlan.hu.com/p/29
the private key is essentially a big number. Whoever knows this number can control the currency on the corresponding address. So the private key must be generated with reliable random number, otherwise it may be guessed and stolen
compared with the token, the address is the hash of the public key. There is no way to judge whether an address has a corresponding public key and private key (even if the public key is known, the corresponding private key cannot be known). Therefore, even if it is explicitly the address of "burned" token, the system does not prohibit the transfer in
strictly speaking, what locks the currency is a small program (script). This program takes the input as the public key and digital signature. First, check whether the public key hash is consistent, and then check whether the digital signature is valid. If it is valid, it will be verified and transfer is allowed; Otherwise, it will be judged that the transaction is illegal and refuse to package into the chain
it is the whole node software that explains and executes this program. It can be said that the software code of the whole node specifically defines a coin
however, the current situation is very embarrassing. Most miners do not run the whole node, only a few mines are running. The vast majority of users do not run the whole node, even if they run the whole node, they can only perform verification, no computing power, no block

6. If you want to ask what's the most popular in 2018, I believe you will say it's blockchain
since last year, a variety of digital currencies have emerged in an endless stream, and blockchain has also been on fire
many people are connected with blockchain as soon as they mention currency speculation; As soon as you hear that an enterprise is doing a blockchain, you will immediately ask if you want to issue money
it seems that blockchain is equivalent to digital currency, and the purpose of studying blockchain is to speculate in currency< br />
1
when you are new to blockchain or digital currency, it is reasonable to equate blockchain with currency speculation
after all, if it wasn't for the growing popularity of bitcoin, no one might have paid attention to blockchain technology so far. If it wasn't for more and more people investing in bitcoin, no institution would have issued a variety of other digital currencies
however, after in-depth understanding of blockchain and digital currency, we still think that blockchain is money speculation, so our understanding is really a bit biased
blockchain is the underlying technology of bitcoin. No matter bitcoin, Ethereum, lightcoin or other various tokens, they are all applications based on blockchain technology
but this does not mean that the blockchain can only be used to issue money, just like fish is raised in the water, but it can not be said that fish is water, and hairy crabs and crayfish can grow in the water
in addition to the various tokens we see at present, blockchain has a very broad application prospect
2
so what is a blockchain
to put it clearly, blockchain is: "blockchain is a kind of technical mole or encryption algorithm that is both basic application and top-level design. It breaks the barrier that an information is only saved by one central server or multiple services in the past, and copies the same information to more places at the same time, such as 1 million servers. Only when more than half of the stored information has been tampered with can chaos be caused. "
in a word, understand the relationship between bitcoin and blockchain:
blockchain is a technical concept born from bitcoin encryption technology
bitcoin is a kind of digital virtual currency, followed by the payment currency as a contribution to storage computing power
if you want to store the same information in countless servers, who will store it for free? There has to be a reward. Bitcoin is a reward for accepting free storage. This reward is a virtual thing called bitcoin.

Pure blockchain technology can also be applied in non-financial fields. Here are some examples of blockchain technology application:
-
cross center sharing of provident fund blacklist
ant financial blockchain and Huaxin Yong build "cloud platform of joint dishonesty punishment and deposit proof", Hainan province takes the lead in sharing the black list and deposit certificate of provident fund across centers and regions through the platform -
business service blockchain platform
the platform uses blockchain technology to open the service mode of "all-weather, zero meeting, one click" and applicants can apply for business license through the "blockchain + AI" platform, which takes only one and a half hours -
Jingdong Logistics creates a blockchain traceability platform with one click traceability of beef and mutton
< / OL >
there are many areas where blockchain technology can be applied, and it does not have to be related to digital currency. Cryptography focuses on blockchain information< br />
8. The era of blockchain 1.0 is the era of digital currency, and the technical basis is as follows:
1. Lianzhuang data block structure based on blocks
2. Network wide shared ledger
3. Asymmetric encryption
4. Source code open source
with the popularity of digital currency, many people also have a strong interest and start to speculate in currency, and a series of scams appear at the same time, Therefore, virtual currency is under strict supervision in China, but with the application and deepening of blockchain technology, the era of blockchain 3.0 has come. Behind the operation of all walks of life, we can see the mode of blockchain cooperation. Therefore, blockchain will change the way of human life widely and profoundly, so the whole life service will enter the era of blockchain. In the process of Internet development, blockchain + physical instry, blockchain e-commerce and blockchain community operation can be applied to blockchain technology.

it means that the blockchain project has no money or you want to make money
Alibaba Tencent's blockchain project will not issue currency
