Financial instry

blockchain should be the most widely used in the financial instry

, for example, OMG (young model currency) in May 2017, omise announced that it was launching an electronic wallet with Alipay to integrate Alipay payment solutions into its own payment service suite, helping local e-commerce businesses in Thailand to accept online payment transactions from China tourists. p>

another example is PPT, which is a bill financial transaction system based on blockchain

gambling

the gambling instry probably entered the blockchain last year. Why does gambling favor blockchain? Blockchain provides a relatively fair guessing system. Why is it relatively fair? As can be seen from the previous introction, blockchain can not be tampered with or forged

for example, wicc is a rich application scenario that can realize asset issuance, guessing application, right traceability, mutual insurance, decentralized exchange, cross-border settlement, etc

for example, the STX stox application is designed to provide the full functionality of the forecast market application without any central server. Forecasting the market requires functions such as event planning, market making, providing information and analysis to traders, reporting event results, and of course collecting and paying

I believe that if the current lottery instry is set up on the blockchain, people's purchasing enthusiasm will be higher and higher, because too many insiders make people give up

Internet of things

there are still many applications of the Internet of things in the blockchain, because the traceability and timeliness of blocks are very suitable for this instry

for example, data is the concept of Internet of things, which is a decentralized P2P network. The data source can connect with any node in the whole network, and then publish the data, and the network will immediately send it to the subscriber. Horizontal scalability is achieved through fragmentation mode. This is very important for the timeliness and accuracy of Internet of things applications

game instry

for example, GTC (g coin) is a decentralized digital asset based on Ethereum erc20 issued by game.com, and G coin is committed to becoming the general digital currency standard of the global game instry

for example, mana is a distributed shared virtual platform. On this platform, users can browse and discover content, and interact with other people and entities. Users can also claim the ownership of virtual territory through the land ledger based on blockchain. The territory is demarcated by rectangular coordinates (x, y), and its owner can decide the content published on the territory, including interactive systems from static 3D scenes to games

there are many other instries. The great emperor did not list them one by one, but listed several representative instries. What is the point? It shows that blockchain is definitely not only the transaction of currency, it is a proct of the era change with real landing project and real practical use

in fact, the development of human society is just like the blockchain, which is irreversible and unstoppable. In my opinion, sooner or later, the blockchain will enter into thousands of households, no matter the ox or bear, hold the value currency in hand, and tonghuashun has begun to offer digital currency, which shows that the society is accepting it step by step, and the power of social development can not be blocked by any country or person

Blockchain is divided into three categories

1. public blockchain

2. private Ledong blockchain

3. common sports blockchain

4. The disappearance should be temporary, just as newspapers are still there after Internet news. However, the new technology will certainly bring some impact or even impact. Blockchain may affect the following 12 instry regions:
1. Banking
as a digital, secure and anti-interference account, blockchain realizes the core function of Banking: the safe storage and transfer center of value. In other words, in the next few years, a wave of companies based on blockchain technology may affect the banking instry. Indeed, UBS, a Swiss company, and baecelays, a British company, are trying to use blockchain technology to improve payment terms. Some other banking companies even said blockchain technology could save $20 billion in intermediate costs

therefore, it is not surprising that banks, as financial service giants, have become the growth force of blockchain venture. Payment and transfer
recently, the world economic forum wrote in Forbes magazine that decentralized payment technology, such as bitcoin, may change the "business structure" of the transfer instry that has not changed for more than 100 years. Blockchain technology can avoid complex systems and create a more direct payment process between the payer and the payee. Whether it is domestic transfer or cross-border transfer, this method has the characteristics of low price, fast speed, and no intermediate fees. Abra (above) is a start-up enterprise that uses blockchain technology for global bitcoin and blockchain based transfer
3. Network security
although the system of blockchain is public, advanced encryption technology is used in the process of data exchange such as verification and transmission. This technology not only ensures the correct source of data, but also ensures that the data will not be intercepted in the intermediate process. If the application of blockchain technology is more extensive, the probability of being attacked by hackers may also decrease. Therefore, people think that blockchain system is more secure than traditional system. One of the reasons why blockchain system can rece the traditional network security risk is that it relieves the demand for middleman
"eliminating middlemen not only reces the potential security risk of hacker attacks, but also reces the possibility of corruption," Goldman Sachs wrote. Guardtime (above) is an Estonian start-up company, which mainly studies instrial network security solutions based on blockchain technology
4. Academic record and academia
holbertson school, a California software skills program, announced that it will use blockchain technology to identify academic credentials. This will ensure the authenticity of holbertson school students in course identification. If more schools adopt such transparent certificates, transcripts and diplomas, academic corruption will be greatly reced, not to mention the labor verification time and paper document cost
5. Elections
at the University of West Virginia, the student union is considering whether to use a voting platform based on blockchain technology to conct school elections. If such a platform is used, students can vote with mobile devices, and the voting results will be included in the public system, so the voting is completely safe. One student who supported this way explained that the vote "can never be modified or deleted by us - programmers, school administrators or students."
Agora voting, a Spanish software project, uses encryption technology to improve the security of online voting. Several of their systems have also been tested in Spain. Recently, the leader of this project proposed several ideas to turn bitcoin and blockchain technology into voting applications, which are far from experimental
6. Car rental and sales
later last year, visa and DocuSign announced a cooperative plan to create specific solutions for car rental by using blockchain technology. In the future, car rental can be completed in three steps of "click, sign and open". The specific operation is: customers choose the car they want to rent, and then the transaction will be uploaded to the public account of the blockchain; Then, the customer signs a lease agreement and an insurance agreement from the driver's seat, and the blockchain will upload the information in real time. It is not hard to imagine that this leasing model may also be applied to the field of car sales and car registration
7. Network communication and Internet of things
IBM and Samsung are working together to realize an idea called adept. Adept uses blockchain technology to build the pillar of decentralized Internet of things. Coindesk said that with adept, the decentralized P2P automatic telemetry system, the blockchain can become a public system for many devices, and there is no need for a central hub to mediate the communication of various devices. After removing the central control system and identifying each other, the devices can automatically communicate with each other, manage software updates, bugs, or energy consumption
other companies are also committed to integrating blockchain technology into the Internet of things platform. For example, filamen, which uses blockchain technology to build a decentralized network for sensor communication, announced that they have obtained US $5 million investment in round a financing, with the participation of Verizon ventures and Samsung ventures
8. Smart contract
a smart contract is actually a computer program that functions on the action of another object. Like ordinary computer programs, intelligent contracts are also an "If then" function, but blockchain technology realizes the automatic filling of these "contracts" without human intervention. This kind of contract may eventually replace the core business of the legal instry, that is, the business of drafting and managing contracts in the commercial and civil fields
for example, mortgage loans can be completed through blockchain technology and automatically executed every year according to the terms of the contract. Ethereum, a crowdfunding platform based on blockchain technology, not only provides decentralized applications, but also provides smart contracts. Some users have married with their smart contracts. Another company, hedgy, received $1.2 million in seed round investment from Tim Draper, Marc Benioff, boost.vc and sand hill angels earlier this year. The company uses smart contracts to build a platform for users to discuss the value of bitcoin
9. Prediction
blockchain technology may shake the whole research, analysis, consulting and prediction instry. Aug, an online crowdfunding platform, hopes to make a profit in a decentralized forecasting platform. The company said it would offer a service that looked like a gaming swap. The whole process will be decentralized, and the AUG platform will not only provide users with sports and stock gambling services, but also provide election and natural disaster gambling services. This idea actually goes beyond sports gambling and creates a "forecasting market"
10. Online music
many musicians are choosing blockchain technology to improve the fairness of online music sharing. Billboard reports that two companies are automatically solving licensing problems by paying artists directly and using smart contracts. Peertracks, which is still in its infancy, wants to create a new music streaming platform where users can pay artists directly without middleman's intervention. Peertracks also hopes to create more direct interaction between artists and users
ujo music, led by entrepreneur Phil Barry, claims that they are rebuilding the music instry on the blockchain. Ujo also hopes to solve the problem of streaming music and artist payment. In addition to streaming music, it is also expected that ujo will be able to better classify the artists and creators behind the songs by using intelligent contracts as the autonomous brain of the song list
11. Travel sharing
Uber and other travel applications seem to be on the opposite side of decentralization. This company is like a deployment center, using its algorithm to control its drivers and their charges. According to the report of blog, Israeli venture LA & # 39; Zooz wants to "go against Uber.". The company invented its own patented digital currency, which, like bitcoin, can be digitally recorded using blockchain technology. Different from the centralized network, users can call in LA & # 39; Find people with similar itinerary on zooz, and then use LA & # 39; Zooz's currency pays the taxi fare. These coins can be used for car hailing in the future. Users can get LA & # 39 as long as they allow the app to track their location; Zooz's digital currency
12. Stock trading
for many years, companies have been trying to simplify the process of stock purchase, sales and trading. Emerging blockchain technology makers believe that they can go beyond the past, realize the automation of the whole process, and improve security and efficiency. Overstock's subsidiary T & # Com wants to use blockchain technology to realize online trading of stocks. Overstock is already using blockchain technology to issue public shares, wired reported. At the same time, chain, a blockchain technology maker (mentioned above), is working with NASDAQ to realize the share trading of private companies through blockchain technology.

The application prospects of blockchain are mainly in the fields of finance, Internet of things and logistics, public services, digital rights and insurance

1. Blockchain has great potential applications in international exchange, letter of credit, equity registration, stock exchange and other financial fields. The application of blockchain technology in the financial instry can eliminate the third-party intermediary link and realize the point-to-point direct docking

2. Blockchain can also be naturally combined in the field of Internet of things and logistics, which is considered as a promising application direction of blockchain. The establishment of credit resources in the blockchain can double improve the security of transactions and improve the convenience of Internet of things transactions. It can save time and cost for the application of intelligent logistics mode

3. Blockchain is closely related to people's proction and life in public management, energy, transportation and other fields. The decentralized and fully distributed DNS service provided by blockchain can realize the query and resolution of domain name through the point-to-point data transmission service between nodes in the network

4. Through blockchain technology, works can be authenticated to prove the existence of text, video, audio and other works and ensure the authenticity and uniqueness of ownership. After the works are confirmed on the blockchain, the subsequent transactions will be recorded in real time to realize the full life cycle management of digital rights, and can also be used as a technical guarantee in judicial evidence collection

5. In terms of insurance claims, insurance institutions are responsible for fund collection, investment and claims settlement, and often have higher management and operation costs. Through the application of smart contract, there is no need for the applicant to apply or the insurance company to approve. As long as the claim conditions are triggered, the automatic claim settlement of the policy can be realized

extended data:

the core technology of blockchain

1. Consensus mechanism, through the voting of special nodes, completes the verification and confirmation of transactions in a very short time; For a transaction, if several nodes with unrelated interests can reach a consensus, it can be considered that the whole network can also reach a consensus. The goal of blockchain consensus mechanism is to make all honest nodes keep consistent blockchain views

2. Asymmetric encryption requires two keys for encryption and decryption, which are public key and private key. The public key corresponds to the private key. The public key is used in the process of data encryption, and only the corresponding private key can be used to decrypt; On the contrary, the private key is used to encrypt the data, and only the corresponding public key can be used to decrypt the data

6. Blockchain is a new way of accounting.
before, I bought things and you sold them on the platform for accounting,
blockchain was that I bought things and you sold them on the platform for accounting, and he bought things and she sold them on the platform for accounting, thus eliminating the cloud data storage of the platform

7. I know that there is a No.1, No.1, No.2, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, No.1, no.
