2. For more technical overview of betterhash protocol currently under development, it should be enough to see the speech of Matt Corallo. It is unnecessary to understand the problem of reprinting the theory of self fighting game network in this paper, because Conceptually speaking, betterhash is better objectively, and it does not need a complete code implementation to understand how important it is.
3.
The concept of bitcoin was founded by Nakamoto
On December 12, 2010, when bitcoin graally became a hot topic, he quietly left and disappeared from the Internet As a descendant of samurai, Nakamoto was born in 1949 in Beppu, Japan. His mother, quanzi, was a Buddhist and brought him up in poverty When his parents divorced in 1959, Nakamoto's mother remarried and immigrated to California with her three sons. Nakamoto and his stepfather don't get along well, but according to his younger brother Arthur, Nakamoto showed his talent in mathematics and science when he was very young, but also showed his "fickle and strange interest"Nakamoto graated from Caltech, majoring in physics. Upon graation, he joined Hughes Aircraft and worked in defense and electronic communications. Later, Nakamoto worked for the U.S. military, and his experience was classified as a state secret. Now searching his files, his life is a blank
In 2008, in an e-mail group discussing information encryption on the Internet, he published an article outlining the basic framework of the bitcoin system. In 2009, he established an open source project for the system, officially announcing the birth of bitcoin. On December 12, 2010, when bitcoin graally became the climate, he quietly left and disappeared from the Internet4.
Bitcoin is a kind of virtual encrypted digital currency in the form of P2P. Different from all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, And the use of cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of money circulation. However, on September 4, 2017, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions announced that virtual currency trading is prohibited in China, and bitcoin is prohibited from circulating in China
according to the first article of the notice on preventing the financing risks of token issuance, we should accurately understand the essential attributes of token issuance financing activities. Token issuance financing refers to the illegal sale and circulation of tokens by the financing subject to raise the so-called virtual currency such as bitcoin and ether coin from investors. In essence, it is an unauthorized illegal public financing behavior, which is suspected of illegal sale of token bills, illegal issuance of securities, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal criminal activities
Relevant departments will closely monitor relevant developments, strengthen cooperation with judicial departments and local governments, strictly enforce the law in accordance with the current working mechanism, and resolutely deal with market chaos. If suspected crimes are found, they will be transferred to judicial organs. The token or "virtual currency" used in token issuance financing is not issued by the monetary authority, does not have such monetary attributes as legal compensation and compulsion, does not have the same legal status as currency, and cannot and should not be used as currency in the market 
extended information:
Article 3 of the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance strengthens the management of token financing trading platform. From the date of this announcement, any so-called token financing trading platform shall not engage in the exchange business between legal tender and token and "virtual currency", nor buy or sell token or "virtual currency" as a central counterpart, nor provide pricing, information intermediary and other services for token or "virtual currency"
for the token financing trading platform with illegal problems, the financial management department will request the competent department of telecommunications to close its website platform and mobile app according to law, request the network information department to remove the mobile app from the app store, and request the instrial and commercial administration department to revoke its business license according to law
Article 4 financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall not carry out business related to token issuance financing transactions. All financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall not directly or indirectly provide procts or services such as account opening, registration, trading, clearing and settlement for token issuance and financing and "virtual currency", nor undertake insurance business related to token and "virtual currency" or include token and "virtual currency" into the scope of insurance liability. Financial institutions and non bank payment institutions shall report to the relevant departments in a timely manner if they find clues of violation of laws and regulations in token issuance financing transactions
5. Let's talk about the social or economic significance of blockchain. In fact, many of the previous technologies were devoted to "proctivity". For example, artificial intelligence is a kind of progress in proctivity. The blockchain, which has greatly improved the proction relations, is committed to the proction relations. So why do you say that
because the so-called proction relationship is actually how to do business between people and business partners. And these things, originally, are in the cognitive process between people, and there is no special program to program or quantify it
for example, if you and I are good friends now, we can do business. If someone stirs up our relationship and we are not good friends, we will not do business. Even if we can make money in business, we will not do business because there is no trust between us
as for blockchain, it is actually because the data is authenticated by all nodes and backed up at the same time, so my data is as real as possible and can't be tampered with. In this case, if you believe my data, you can make a program on this basis, and then use the data to make what kind of business contract, what kind of service, what kind of service, and what kind of service, what kind of service, what kind of service, what kind of service, what kind of service, what kind of service, what kind of service, etc This "proction relationship" of commercial cooperation is programmed. In this way, we believe in the data and the program compiled by the algorithm. Because you believe in the data and the program, you can develop all kinds of apps in the program. These apps are the proction relations and what business to do. This is: blockchain is actually a reconstruction of "proction relationship".

6. Li Lihui, former president of the Bank of China and head of the blockchain working group of the Internet Finance Association of China, delivered a speech on blockchain application and virtual currency supervision, in which he mentioned the upcoming launch of bitcoin futures by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group (CME) and the change of regulatory attitude in the United States, It triggered a discussion about whether bitcoin can return to China. Stationmaster thinks, from the perspective of the world, the change of regulatory policies in various countries is quietly happening, and many signs show that the acceptance of bitcoin in various countries is graally increasing
7. "I don't want money, I don't want fame, I don't want people's worship, I just want not to be disturbed by the outside world."—— Craig Steven Wright, the self styled founder of bitcoin, told the BBC
who is Craig Steven Wright< Craig Wright, a 45 year old Australian born in 1970, has many different identities: he has a doctorate in theology, worked as a guest lecturer and researcher in computer science at Charlotte University, wrote many books, and is the CEO and founder of many companies, Most of these companies are in the field of virtual currency or computer network security
now, he has a new label for himself: the father of bitcoin<
looking for the father of bitcoin
the father of bitcoin is a god like existence. He is the first to publish the white paper of bitcoin and write the earliest version of bitcoin. Countless people admire his exquisite design ideas and neat code structure, but no one has ever seen him in reality
what people know is only a character with the pseudonym of Satoshi Nakamoto. He created bitcoin, but he hides his identity on the Internet and only communicates with the outside world through electronic means. No one ever knows who he is. In 2011, he said that he had a new project, and since then, he has faded out of the daily maintenance and development of bitcoin. Later maintainers even contributed more code than him in the project. However, since the emergence of bitcoin in 2009, people have never given up looking for the real identity of the father of bitcoin
the conjecture has never been interrupted. In view of the fact that there are very few traces of Satoshi Nakamoto, people can only find his existence from the only traces. Some people speculate that he is British, because there are English expressions like "bloody hard" in his words. Others speculate that he lives in the eastern time zone of the United States according to the timestamps of his few emails. Others speculate that he is a socialist in the Netherlands and a mathematician in Japan according to his ideas and pseudonyms, It's Irish students... Among all the suspects, Nick Szabo and Hal Finney are the two most widely suspected, and even appeared in new Yorker and Newsweek. However, the former denies that the latter is no longer alive. Even some people think that bitcoin's exquisite design must have come from a team. Satoshi Nakamoto is a group of people, not a person
ring this period, countless people jumped out and claimed to be the father of bitcoin, and were found to be pranks or scams countless times. This time, Craig Wright took the initiative to show his identity to the BBC, the economist and GQ. Will he end the mystery< This is not the first time Craig Wright has been associated with Satoshi Nakamoto, the father of bitcoin. At the end of last year, someone anonymously reported to wired and Gizmodo that Craig Wright was most likely the father of bitcoin. They provided Craig Wright with many emails, phone calls, financial records and so on. All kinds of signs show that Craig Wright and bitcoin are inextricably linked<
however, shortly after the report was published, wire overturned this conclusion based on some back tone situations: they found that Craig Wright's claim on LinkedIn that his degree did not match the facts, and his company claimed to have purchased supercomputers from SGI, which was also denied by the latter. Since then, the search for the father of bitcoin has been temporarily deadlocked. What's more, almost at the same time as the news, the Australian tax authorities launched a surprise investigation into Craig Wright and his company, but no one ever knew the specific reasons and results of the investigation. Craig Wright remained silent throughout the incident, but left Australia to work in his London office
until today, six months later, on May 2, 2016, he took the initiative to stand up and claimed on his blog that he was Satoshi Nakamoto, the father of bitcoin
why now
Craig Wright told the economist that he didn't disclose his identity for the sake of fame, but just to correct the public misunderstanding of him. According to him, in the months of silence, all kinds of public unfounded suspicions not only affected him and his work, but also his family, employees and everything. In addition, he also wants to break people's negative views and misunderstandings about bitcoin
if he is really Satoshi Nakamoto, his wealth is amazing. At present, the value of bitcoin in circulation is about US $7 billion, and Satoshi Nakamoto, as the earliest prospector of bitcoin, is estimated to hold as much as US $450 million in bitcoin on hand, although with the disappearance of Satoshi Nakamoto, the money seems to be covered with st and has never been transferred. Craig Wright said that with his comeback, without affecting the exchange rate of bitcoin, he will slowly turn this money into cash for his research projects
Why did you think of using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto at that time? Craig Wright says the name comes from a 17th century Japanese philosopher and businessman, Tominaga Nakamoto, who started a critical movement against rules and supported free trade. As for why Satoshi, Craig Wright didn't give a positive answer, but told reporters that he wanted to keep this part mysterious
however, since you have chosen the bright identity, how much mystery can you keep<
uncover the mystery
in view of all kinds of doubts that Craig Wright suffered at the end of 2015, it is obvious that more strict examination is needed to prove that he is the father of bitcoin this time. The economist tries to find out whether what he said is true through four questions:
does Craig Wright have evidence to prove that he is Satoshi Nakamoto? For example, only Satoshi Nakamoto has the key
What's the explanation for the queries and loopholes we encountered last time
as the father of bitcoin, is it true that it has the matching technology and strength background
do you believe the people in the circle who have had contact with Satoshi Nakamoto online
it's easy and difficult for Craig Wright to proce evidence that only Satoshi Nakamoto himself can have. Here I want to mention the basic composition of bitcoin. Just like a bank account, everyone can have multiple bitcoin accounts, and each independent bitcoin account has two key components: 1) a string of bitcoin addresses composed of 27-34 letters or numbers; 2) A private key for encryption and authentication; The holder of bitcoin can generate a digital signature by encrypting information with his private key. In addition, bitcoin as a kind of currency, in order to achieve incremental, it must rely on mining, and the ability of mining comes from your computer computing power. They are the banknote printing machines in the bitcoin world. Every new mine will be bound with its corresponding bitcoin address. As the first miner, Satoshi Nakamoto should have these private keys. In addition, Satoshi Nakamoto was the first person to trade bitcoin. In that year, he transferred the bitcoin g up in block 9 to Hal Finney, who was also suspected to be the father of bitcoin and is no longer alive
therefore, according to the strength of the evidence, Craig Wright should basically have the private key of jiukuang, and it would be better if he could provide earlier mining areas. And if he can transfer another account, it will be more credible
in the process of verification, Craig Wright encrypted a segment of Jean Paul Sartre's speech in 1964 when he refused to accept the Nobel Prize for literature with the private key of jiukuang, and published the process on his blog. At the same time, he showed the economist the verification process of Yikuang in private, and there were two witnesses in the whole process: Jon matonis and Gavin Andresen, both members of the bitcoin foundation, who once served as the chief developer of the whole bitcoin community after Satoshi Nakamoto faded out
but the problem is that the encrypted text is prepared in advance, which does not mean Craig Wright really has a corresponding private key, but may have been generated in advance. In addition, Craig Wright did not make a real transfer. According to him, the bitcoin in his name is currently in the name of a trust, and he can't use it directly. In this case, the Economist asked whether they could provide a piece of encrypted information, but Craig Wright refused. To sum up, he meant: I've demonstrated so much, believe it or not
in addition, with regard to previous resumes, Craig Wright said that some of the resumes previously written on LinkedIn were not true, but his purpose was not to disclose too much personal information and deliberately create smoke bombs. According to his latest resume, he does have three master's degrees at Charlotte University, a doctoral dissertation in computer science is under review, and he is also studying for a master's degree in finance at the University of London. These qualifications and work experience have been basically confirmed<
as for whether they actually bought supercomputers, Craig Wright provided an explanation from the SGI agency in Australia. Although SGI headquarters far away in Silicon Valley denied the existence of the transaction, they did not deny it. It may also be a grey transaction through informal channels, and they did not comment on it
as for the tax department, Craig Wright directly denied all conspiracy theories and said that he was not involved in any financial crimes or tax evasion. The Australian authorities only discussed with him about the tax laws of bitcoin on some projects he carried out, such as bitcoin bank. He left Australia for the UK only because London is better suited to run a technology finance company< However, it seems that things are not so simple
Craig Wright is a text lover with nearly 100 conference reports, articles and books. In addition to most of the short stories related to computer security, other words cover a wide range of fields: economy, terrorism, risk management and so on. He said that he had several papers on bitcoin under review, and the economist had read some of them. In their original words, although not extraordinary, it was OK
based on Craig Wright's large amount of words, Juola & Associates, a stylistic analysis company, compares Craig Wright's words with the bitcoin white paper published on the Internet by Satoshi Nakamoto

8. Bitcoin and lightcoin will recover in one month. In this month, the major bitcoin trading platforms in China will formulate an instry rule, which is also a last resort under the pressure of the central bank's anti money laundering. On the one hand, the central bank is to cool bitcoin; on the other hand, it is to fight money laundering and prevent bitcoin from disturbing the normal financial order. The blow to bitcoin has also affected other digital currencies. The trading volume of doggy coin, Puyin and Ruibo coin also decreased.
