Eight dimensions of blockchain value currency
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
it is the birthplace of blockchain technology, and the market has confidence in it. It still maintains a stable growth under the adverse situation of major policies. Once it solves the problem of capacity expansion, the price rise can be predicted
2. Ethereum
compared with bitcoin, the advantage of Ethereum is that it has no policy problems. Although the event led to its bifurcation, the establishment of enterprise version Ethereum alliance may solve this problem. Its concept and Prospect of smart contract attract many developers to follow
the essence of community operation is that the majority decides the minority when indivials support eth
3. Zec
compared with bitcoin and Ethereum, the risk of z-coin will be greater, and its value will take a longer time to reflect. But in the long run, the value of anonymity will be one of the values that human beings generally pursue
4. BTS
bitstocks are very powerful and the system is very stable. Decentralized trading, anchoring system and so on. Although the founder bm's brain damage has hurt the community, the value of bitstocks is obviously undervalued. It is a wise choice to hold bitstocks on the cheap.
judge for yourself.
Often when we talk about value, we will naturally relate to price. Indeed, price is an important data to measure value. As a blockchain technology, bitcoin's price reached 140000 RMB when it was high, and now it has dropped by about 50%, but it is still as high as 80000 RMB
At this point, you may have understood: if people do not have a common understanding of a thing, and do not give value to a thing, many things will not become "valuable". Just like our understanding of air and food, it is necessary for us to live and survive! This is the "consensus". We all believe that if we want to live, these two are indispensable! Therefore, we can conclude that the essence of value is consensus. What is the value consensus of virtual currency? Most people think that the essence of currency is not consensus, but the credibility and authority of the ruling government. This is not unreasonable. The government can only be one of the sources of value consensus, so most people think it is not comprehensive. In today's society, our consensus on the value of things comes from many ways, such as: Endorsement of authoritative institutions, corporate credit, religious belief, support of scientific theory2. An account set has only one functional currency. If you want to record multiple currencies in the transaction processing layer, use MRC; If it is not needed, it can be realized with conversion function or account set consolidation function
3. Of course, foreign exchange adjustment is for the reporting currency, so the report of each reporting currency should be the result of revaluation.
