18 years of blockchain
However, where are the opportunities for these innocent employees? To put it bluntly, some blockchain entrepreneurs are bent on "empty handed White Wolf", and exploit layer upon layer through "deception". Using asymmetric instry information, blockchain, digital currency and other projects are over packaged, giving people a sense of "Hope". This part of the blockchain entrepreneurs' inherent "bad root", to a certain extent, has led to the instry's "sick" development trend
some blockchain entrepreneurs call for embracing the times, changes and the future, emphasizing the charm of decentralized "fairness". But in reality, it is for self-interest, which hurts the interests of job seekers and other related groups, which is a great injustice in itself
The asymmetry of information is not permanent. Blockchain, digital currency and so on are all areas worthy of attention, but they are not the capital that can be used by some entrepreneurs as unlimited squanders all the time. For the job seekers who want to join them, they should polish their eyes, otherwise they may be surprised if they are not carefulalthough the currency circle is in a bear market, blockchain is not useless without cryptocurrency
the blockchain instry has developed rapidly in recent years, and more and more blockchain technologies appear in front of people. More and more blockchain applications are landing, blockchain e-invoice, blockchain traceability, blockchain finance and so on. Talents in the blockchain instry are also very scarce. Many colleges and universities in China have set up blockchain courses to provide talents for the blockchain instry
the development of a new technology will inevitably encounter setbacks, and the blockchain instry will grow stronger in the future.
from cable TV companies to retail enterprises, all walks of life are trying their best to keep their most precious property: monopoly. The traditional view is: "if you control the entrance and channel, then consumers have little choice."
however, we see that companies like Netflix and Amazon break the old pattern and provide more choices for our lives. Similarly, in the field of digital currency and finance, some of the largest financial institutions are facing serious challenges
it is expected that decentralized business and demand will rise in 2019, which will provide more opportunities for successful blockchain companies. At the same time, but this opportunity also means risk. If, as in 2018, the founders or entrepreneurs of blockchain companies make too many promises, and the projects are suspected of exaggeration, they may lose their reputation and first mover advantage< For decades, the world's largest financial institutions have controlled most of the financial systems of the global economy
however, blockchain companies have begun to gain fair competition opportunities through access to banking services and real-time payment. In 2019, the blockchain instry will enter the field of securities, loans and other derivative financial procts in addition to financial payment. Companies like securitize *, Dharma, dydx, compound finance and the ocean are committed to building decentralized finance
in the past few years, mobile application companies such as rap, gojek and paytm have been expanding their business, with payment, investment, remittance, loan and insurance procts emerging. As many Asian economies move from cash to the digital economy, they are rapidly attracting users of new banks
Asian regulators have provided clearer guidelines for blockchain and digital currency projects because they believe that blockchain is a catalyst for economic growth and may become a sunrise instry in the future
in addition, more than 80% of digital currency trading volume comes from Asia, so digital currency investors are eager to establish reliable infrastructure. If Grab, Gojek and Paytm can benefit from digital money investors, they will begin to support the block chain more, providing awesome experience for payment, loans and other derivatives.
back to the original heart
in the past few years, the digital currency instry has deviated from its original financial vision, which is well illustrated in Nakamoto's bitcoin white paper. Just like the prosperity and depression of the Internet, almost all imaginable real cases, such as the logistics chain of tracking the freshness of flowers, are attracting people's attention with the hot word of blockchain
however, just like the early Internet, real landing cases must match the development stage of technology
Netflix, for example, could not successfully stream TV programs in 2000, when less than 1% of people used broadband. In the past few years, it has become more and more obvious that payment is a real case of massive application of blockchain
in 2019, blockchain companies will develop rapidly in decentralized financial applications (such as loans and insurance procts) based on the smart contract platform
I always find that the best application landing occurs in specific market segments. As long as blockchain companies can focus on procts that solve specific problems, we will see more competitive and innovative blockchain companies
and that's a good thing for the instry as a whole.
