Blockchain historical version
blockchain is a digital account book that can be jointly bookkept, and will record all transactions that have occurred and have been unanimously recognized by the system it's the same as the whole family. You're bookkeeping, and your father and mother are also bookkeeping. They can see the general ledger, but the saved information can't be tampered with any more
In 2008, Nakamoto first proposed the concept of blockchain subsequently, blockchain has become the core component of electronic currency bitcoin, which serves as the public account book for all transactions. By using peer-to-peer network and distributed timestamp server, the blockchain database can be managed independentlyextended data:
type of blockchain
1, public blockchain
any indivial or group in the world can send transactions, and transactions can be effectively confirmed by the blockchain, and anyone can participate in its consensus process. Public blockchain is the earliest and the most widely used blockchain. The virtual digital currencies of bitcoin series are all based on public blockchain. There is only one blockchain corresponding to this currency in the world
2, Alliance (instry) blockchain
instry blockchain: multiple preselected nodes are designated as bookkeepers within a group, and the generation of each block is jointly determined by all preselected nodes (preselected nodes participate in the consensus process), and other access nodes can participate in the transaction, However, regardless of the bookkeeping process (in essence, it is still managed bookkeeping, only distributed bookkeeping, how many preselected nodes, and how to determine the bookkeeper of each block to become the main risk point of the blockchain), anyone else can conct limited query through the open API of the blockchain
3, private blockchain
only uses the general ledger technology of blockchain for bookkeeping. It can be a company or an indivial, and enjoys the write permission of the blockchain. This blockchain is not very different from other distributed storage schemes
in the future, blockchain will be applied in any field and bring great impact on human life. Blockchain technology is regarded as one of the main protocols of the next generation of value Internet. Blockchain technology will be useful in any field of proction and life that lacks trust. From digital currency to securities and financial contracts, health care, games, artificial intelligence, intelligent contracts, Internet of things, identity authentication, asset trading, e-commerce, social communication, file storage and other fields can be widely used
in the aspect of medical treatment
when the blockchain technology is used to save the personal medical records, there will be the historical data of personal medical treatment, which can be understood as the electronic medical records on the blockchain. In the future, there will be data for medical treatment or health planning, and the real master of this data is the patient himself, not the hospital or a third-party organization. In addition, these data have strong privacy, and the use of blockchain technology also helps to protect the privacy of patients
payment system
compared with the existing traditional payment system, blockchain technology can avoid the complex system, directly between the two sides of the transaction, does not involve intermediary institutions, even if part of the network is paralyzed, it will not affect the operation of the whole system. This method has the characteristics of low price, fast speed, and no intermediate fees
banking
as a digital, secure and anti-interference account, blockchain realizes the core function of Banking: the safe storage and transfer center of value. Some banks with keen sense of smell in the world have begun to actively plan to join the army of blockchain research and application in order to gain the initiative in the fierce competition in the future
identity authentication of blockchain
blockchain has the feature of being accessible to everyone. Everyone can query the block information in any place with network. The high transparency also makes blockchain full of charm. In the future, ID card and account book are basically not needed, because every identity information can be written into the blockchain. When you need to verify the information, you only need to look it up to find it
election
based on the voting transaction on the blockchain, it can be confirmed that no vote has been modified or deleted, and there will be no improper voting
Real Estate
blockchain technology can change the operation mode of the real estate market. It can combine many complex processes and cases that real estate companies usually deal with, speed up the transaction process, rece fraud, and provide more transparent and secure transactions for each participant. Provides a way to achieve paperless and fast trading needs
the probability of various kinds of errors in securities issuance and trading, such as general stocks, is too high, which requires manual correction, thus prolonging the time required for transaction settlement. Through the transaction of distributed ledger, the automation of the whole process can be realized, and the security and efficiency can be improved. The identity and transaction volume of the trading party are recorded on the blockchain in real time, with an open, transparent and traceable system. It is concive to the market maintenance of securities issuers and regulatory authorities, and can rece the occurrence of black box operation and insider trading
in the scenario of relatively closed, multi-party trust problems and carrying value transmission, blockchain has unique technical advantages and also shows unique charm, which has great application imagination space. At the current stage, blockchain is worth exploring in some scenarios.
"the times 03 / Jan / 2009 Chancellor on brink of second low for banks (on January 3, 2009, the chancellor of the exchequer was on the verge of implementing the second round of bank emergency assistance)."
at that time, the British Chancellor of the exchequer, darling, was forced to consider a second attempt to relieve the banking crisis, which was the headline of the front page article of the times that day
the time stamp service and existence proof of blockchain, the time generated by the first blockchain and the events that happened at that time are permanently preserved
BTCC, a bitcoin company, launched a service "Millennium chain" in 2015, namely blockchain lettering service, which is based on the above principles. Users can use this service to engrave text on the blockchain and save it permanently
bitcoin, Ruitai coin, Laite coin, dogcoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies will use blockchain technology.
I. blockchain 1.0 cryptocurrency era (2008-2013)
&
in 2008, Nakamoto first proposed the concepts of bitcoin and blockchain, and then in January 2009, the first blockchain came out. At this stage, people pay more attention to the transaction of cryptocurrency, and blockchain is only used as the underlying technology to act as a "public account book"< br />
2. Blockchain 2.0 smart contract era (2014-2017)
&
in 2014, & quot; Blockchain 2.0 "has become the pronoun of decentralized blockchain database. At this stage, people mainly focus on the application of the platform. Anyone can upload and execute the smart contract on the blockchain, and will be rewarded automatically after the execution. Because this transaction process does not need any intermediary, so people's privacy has been greatly protected< br />
III. blockchain 3.0 large scale application era (2018 -)
&
at this stage, people begin to build a completely decentralized data network, and the application of blockchain technology is no longer limited to the economic field, but expanded to the fields of art, law, real estate, hospital, human resources and so on.
