Blockchain and EPC
thank you
to know the difference between them, we need to know the definition of them first
digital currency: short for digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital
currency", is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy
blockchain: blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies. Blockchain is essentially a decentralized database, also known as the trust machine
from the above definition, we can know that blockchain is a technology, and digital currency is a kind of virtual currency
digital currency is not equal to blockchain
many people will understand blockchain as blockchain. Here I want to correct that digital currency is not equal to blockchain. Digital currency is only an application of blockchain, and some digital currencies may not be applied to blockchain technology.
blockchain refers to the technical solution of collective maintenance of a reliable database through centralization and distrust in the past, and it is a technical way for the whole people to participate in bookkeeping. Previous bookkeeping methods were all centralized and needed centralized intermediary, whether it was traditional government, financial institutions, notarization institutions or emerging e-commerce platform and online payment platform
in economic hypothesis, information is sufficient. In fact, it is precisely because of insufficient information that there are very large intermediaries. The existence of intermediaries increases the transaction cost and raises the transaction threshold. In essence, blockchain technology is a large-scale collaboration tool. It makes direct value transfer possible by using pure technology for the first time, and continues the trend of Internet decentralization and disintermediation. Disintermediated blockchain technology will greatly subvert the information intermediary instry
blockchain technology is the basic technology for building bitcoin data structure and encrypted transmission of transaction information, which realizes the issue and transaction of bitcoin. The core of blockchain technology is that all the current participating nodes jointly maintain the transaction and database, so that the transaction is based on the principle of cryptography rather than trust, so that any agreed parties can directly carry out payment transactions without the participation of a third party
technically, a block is a data structure for recording transactions, reflecting the capital flow of a transaction. In the system, the transaction blocks are connected to form a main chain, and all the nodes participating in the calculation record the main chain or part of the main chain
a block contains the following three parts: transaction information, hash formed by the previous block and random number. Transaction information is the task data carried by the block, including the private keys of both parties, the number of transactions, the digital signature of electronic currency, etc; The hash hash formed by the previous block is used to connect the blocks and realize the sequence of past transactions; Random number is the core of the transaction. All nodes compete to calculate the answer of the random number. The node that gets the answer the fastest generates a new block and broadcasts it to all nodes for updating, so as to complete a transaction.
Since 2017, the concept of blockchain, which has been popular all over the society and the world, is still heating up, attracting people and social funds; Boost bitcoin, as well as similar network "encrypted digital currency" (such as ether coin, Wright coin, etc.) price rise, created a lot of "overnight rich" myth. The argument that digital currency and blockchain will subvert tradition and profoundly change the world is constantly rising. The start-up and development of blockchain seems to be coming like a roaring sea, but it is more and more concentrated in coin making and speculation, and more and more trapped in the thinking and paradigm of "bitcoin blockchain" of mining and coin making
in the case that bitcoin must be exchanged with fiat money and must join the network trading platform and other auxiliary links in order to play a greater function, the characteristics of bitcoin blockchain such as area center and disintermediation may have serious problems. In the real world, if the transfer of monetary assets is operated through the bitcoin blockchain system, it will actually increase the intermediary link rather than disintermediation. Moreover, because the bitcoin system is highly anonymous and deliberately evades supervision, it is difficult to fully meet the requirements of anti money laundering and anti-terrorism transportation. On the contrary, many new serious problems may arise, Many arguments about bitcoin and blockchain are difficult to hold
those unseen pain points
the so-called labels of bitcoin blockchain, such as "decentralization", "democracy, equality and freedom", can not stand scrutiny; The truth is that if it puts too much emphasis on "decentralization", it will affect efficiency; Bitcoin has not yet become a real currency; The ICO type fund-raising method is not concive to the development of blockchain... But when people enthusiastically pursue blockchain like faith, they can not see these "pain points":
first, bitcoin blockchain is difficult to build a decentralized, democratic and equal society
bitcoin blockchain system envisages the establishment of an equal and democratic world for all participants, but in fact, the core team of coding maintenance and the main forces involved in mining and operation are not so equal and democratic. Due to the influence of computer computing power, the mining and acquisition of bitcoin are not equal as advertised. As a result of competition, the opportunities of mining and acquiring bitcoin are more and more concentrated on a small number of mining pools or nodes with powerful computing power. However, more and more people are involved in mining, consuming resources, but they may not be able to obtain bitcoin. This makes bitcoin more occupied by a few people, and will enhance its voice or influence on the adjustment of network rules
secondly, there are strict conditions for bitcoin blockchain to "de trust" and "de mediate" point-to-point transactions
there is a core difference between blockchain and Internet: the value of underlying protocols and upper applications of blockchain and Internet are completely reversed. It mainly comes from the two core features of blockchain:
the first feature is that zero knowledge proof changes the ownership of data. In other words, the user's personal data on the blockchain belongs to the user and does not need to be provided to the application and stored on the central server. Then the core support "data" behind the market value of Internet application layer services, such as bat, will lose its original value in the field of blockchain
another feature is the economic incentive model brought by token, which gives high value to the underlying protocol. In the Internet era, no one pays for HTTP protocol, no one pays for sending and receiving email, and no one pays for Google's search service.
from the above, blockchain belongs to software development
maybe you didn't ask clearly!
blockchain originates from the underlying technology of bitcoin and is the blockchain technology of Internet. IP is connected by blockchain technology to form distributed accounting. It is not easy to tamper with and decentralize
code chain technology is the code chain technology of the Internet of things, which superimposes the Internet of things IDS one by one in a two-dimensional way to form personal records. The application of "code chain" technology will bring more efficient link forms of "people to people", "people to things" and "things to things"
Introction to code chain:
"code chain" refers to a "two-dimensional code chain" formed by using a smart phone to aim at the "two-dimensional code" and "scan", that is, to "generate a new two-dimensional code containing the scanner's DNA" and access to the "service". The whole process can be traced, supervised and managed
"code chain technology" is the most widely used two-dimensional code "scan" payment technology
code chain technology can realize more efficient link form of people to people, people to things and things to things
Introction to blockchain:
blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin. Blockchain is a series of data blocks generated by cryptography. Each data block contains the information of a bitcoin network transaction, which is used to verify the validity of the information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block
in a narrow sense, blockchain is a kind of chain data structure that combines data blocks in chronological order in a sequential way, and it can not be tampered with and forged by cryptography
broadly speaking, blockchain technology is a new distributed infrastructure and computing paradigm, which uses blockchain data structure to verify and store data, uses distributed node consensus algorithm to generate and update data, uses cryptography to ensure the security of data transmission and access, and uses intelligent contract composed of automated script code to program and operate data
the difference between code chain digital currency and blockchain digital currency:
the difference between "code chain digital currency" based on code chain technology and the existing blockchain digital currency is that "code chain digital currency" is based on the control of property rights, and uses "intelligent two-dimensional code" as the medium to transform the contracts of various instry chains into divisible, tradable, transferable, exchangeable Traceable "smart contract" and real right exchange within the code chain alliance. In the code chain monetary system, "intelligent two-dimensional code" means "SGR". That is to say, each commodity corresponds to a "smart QR code", and this "QR code" represents the "special reference property" of the commodity. Through special reference to the exchange of property rights, the exchange of goods (barter) can be realized. This two-dimensional code, which represents "special mention of property rights", can be used as the carrier and payment means of digital currency at the same time, and payment can be completed through "two-dimensional code scanning".
core analysis:
1. Transparency, 2. Openness, 3. Information can not be tampered with, 4. Decentralization,
5. Detailed analysis
blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies. The so-called consensus mechanism is a mathematical algorithm to establish trust and obtain interests between different nodes in the blockchain system
1. In a narrow sense, blockchain is a kind of chained data structure composed of data blocks connected in sequence according to the time sequence, and it can not be tampered with and forged by cryptography
2. Broadly speaking, blockchain technology uses blockchain data structure to verify and store data, uses distributed node consensus algorithm to generate and update data, and uses cryptography to ensure the security of data transmission and access It is a new distributed infrastructure and computing method to program and operate data by using intelligent contract composed of automated script code.
