Blockchain project intermediary
Contracts, transactions and their records are an important part of our social, economic, legal and political systems. They protect our assets and define the boundaries of the organization. They formed and verified our personal identity and various historical events. They manage a series of activities between the state, organizations, communities and indivials. They direct all management and social activities. But these key tools and the bureaucracy that manages them have not kept pace with the digital transformation of the economy. It's like F1 racing in a big jam. In a digital world, our way of supervision and administrative control must be changed
blockchain has the potential to solve this problem. As the core supporting technology of bitcoin and other virtual currencies, blockchain is an open, distributed ledger, which can effectively record the transaction records between the two parties, and can be verified and permanently saved. The ledger itself can be programmed to automatically trigger transaction completion
five basic principles of blockchain technology
1. Distributed database
each party on the blockchain can obtain all data and complete historical records. No one can control data or information. Each party can directly verify the records of all parties to the transaction without mediation
2. Point to point communication
each independent point can communicate directly without a central node. Each node can store information and transfer all information to all other nodes
3. Limited transparency
users who have access to the system can see every transaction and its value. Each node or user on the blockchain has a unique address composed of letters and numbers, which can be used as the identity of the user. Users can choose to remain anonymous or disclose their identity to others. Transactions occur between addresses on the blockchain
4. Records cannot be changed
once the transaction results enter the database, the account information will be updated accordingly, and the records cannot be changed, because these information are related to all previous transaction records (this is the source of the term "chain"). Various calculation algorithms and methods are used to ensure that the records in the database are permanent, sorted in chronological order, and can be seen by all other people in the network
5. Computational logic
the digital nature of the ledger means that blockchain transactions can be connected with computational logic, and can actually be realized by programming. All users can set algorithms and rules, so that transactions can be automatically triggered between nodes
with blockchain technology, we can imagine that in a new world, contracts are stored in a transparent shared database in the form of digital programming, and will not be deleted, tampered with or revised. In such a world, every protocol, every process, every task and every payment will have a digital record and a digital signature that can be identified, verified, stored and shared. Intermediaries such as lawyers, brokers and bankers are no longer necessary. Indivials, organizations, machines and algorithms can freely interact and trade with each other without friction. This is the infinite potential of blockchain
in fact, almost everyone has heard that blockchain will bring revolutionary impact on enterprises and redefine enterprises and economy. Although we are enthusiastic about the potential of blockchain, we are also worried about exaggeration. It's not just security issues (such as the collapse of a bitcoin exchange in 2014 and the recent hacker attacks) that worry us. The experience of research on technological innovation tells us that if there is a blockchain revolution in the future, there will be many obstacles - technological, governance, organizational and social obstacles. It is likely to lead to a big mistake to rashly apply blockchain technology innovation before we really understand blockchain thoroughly
we believe that it will take many years for blockchain to bring real changes to enterprises and governments. Because blockchain is not a "disruptive" technology, disruptive technology can impact the traditional business model with low-cost solutions, and can quickly replace traditional enterprises. We believe that blockchain is a basic technology: it has the potential to create a new foundation for our economic and social system. But its impact is very extensive, and it will take decades for blockchain to penetrate into economic and social infrastructure. The process of blockchain popularization will be graal, and this process and its strategic significance will be the focus of this paper
technology adoption mode
before discussing blockchain strategy and investment, let's recall the technology adoption process we know below, especially the adoption process of other basic technologies. One of the most relevant examples is the distributed computer network technology, that is, the adoption of TCP / IP protocol, which has laid the foundation for the development of the Internet
TCP / IP first appeared in 1972 and has been widely concerned in an independent application scenario: it is the basis for sending e-mail between researchers on ARPANET, which is the predecessor of the commercial Internet developed by the U.S. Department of defense. Before TCP / IP, the communication system architecture was built on the basis of "circuit switching". The connection between two parties or two machines must be preset and maintained through the switch. In order to ensure that any two nodes can communicate, telecom service providers and equipment manufacturers have invested billions of dollars in dedicated lines
TCP / IP has completely changed the above mode. The new protocol digitizes the information and decomposes it into many small packets, each packet contains address information. Once these packets are released into the network, they can reach the receiver by any route. The data sending point and receiving point in the network can decompose the data packets, combine the data packets again, and interpret the data. There is no need for dedicated lines or large-scale infrastructure. TCP / IP creates an open and shared public network, which has no central organization or main body responsible for maintenance and update
traditional telecom enterprises and related enterprises are suspicious of TCP / IP. Rarely imagine that data, information, audio and video can be established under the new system, and rarely imagine that the related system will be very safe and develop rapidly. However, from the late 1980s to the 1990s, more and more enterprises, such as sun, next, HP and silicon graphics, used TCP / IP to develop their internal LAN. By doing so, they have developed technologies that go beyond e-mail and graally replace traditional LAN technologies and standards. With the adoption of these newly developed technologies and tools, the proction efficiency of enterprises has been greatly improved< In the mid-1990s, the emergence of the world wide web made TCP / IP widely used. The newly founded high-tech enterprises began to provide relevant "tools" - hardware, software and related services, which are necessary for connecting with the current open network and exchanging information. Netscape has commercialized browsers, web servers and other tools and components. Sun company promotes the development of Java. With the exponential growth of information on the Internet, Infoseek, excite, Altavista, and Yahoo are leading users to use TCP / IP technology
once this basic infrastructure is widely accepted, the new generation of enterprises can seize the opportunity brought by low-cost Internet access to create more Internet services, which in turn helps to replace the original business model. CNET has moved news online. Amazon sells more books than any physical bookstore. Priceline and Expedia make it easier to buy tickets, and the whole purchase process is more transparent. These new enterprises expand their business at a very low cost, making traditional enterprises such as newspapers and physical retail stores feel unprecedented pressure
relying on the widespread Internet, enterprises can create novel and revolutionary applications, which are enough to fundamentally change the traditional business model and create value. These enterprises are built on the new P2P architecture, and generate value by coordinating the users of the distributed network. Imagine how eBay has changed the online retail business through auction mode, Napster has changed the music instry, Skype has changed the telecommunications instry, and Google has changed the Internet search by using the links formed by users to provide more accurate search results
many enterprises have used blockchain to track goods in the supply chain. Finally, it took more than 30 years for TCP / IP to become widely accepted - used alone, locally applied, replaced and transformed - and reshape our economy. Today, more than half of the world's most valuable listed companies are Internet driven, platform based business models. The foundation of our economy has fundamentally changed. Physical assets and proprietary intellectual property rights are no longer the guarantee of competitive advantage; Enterprises that lead economic development can play a key role, especially in organizing, influencing and coordinating a wide range of community networks, users and organizations
new system
blockchain, the P2P network at the top of the Internet, came into people's view as the core foundation of bitcoin in October 2008. Bitcoin is a virtual monetary system, which does not issue currency through the central authority, transfers ownership and confirms transactions. Bitcoin is the first practical application of blockchain technology
the similarities between blockchain and TCP / IP are obvious. Just as email allows people to exchange information, bitcoin allows people to trade with each other. The development and maintenance of blockchain is open, distributed and shared - just like TCP / IP. There's a group of volunteers around the world maintaining their core software. Like email, bitcoin has received enthusiastic support from people at the beginning, but only a relatively small number of people
TCP / IP greatly reces the cost of interconnection, thus creating new value for economic development. Similarly, blockchain can significantly rece transaction costs. Blockchain has the potential to become all transaction recording systems. If this becomes a reality, new enterprises based on blockchain technology will influence and control emerging instries, and the economy will experience fundamental changes again
let's first look at how enterprises operate. Recording transactions is the core work that every enterprise must do. These records track past activities and achievements and provide guidance for the future. They can not only let people understand how the enterprise operates internally, but also let people know how to keep in touch with the outside world. Every enterprise or organization has its own records, and these records are private and confidential. Many enterprises do not have a general ledger record of all activities of the enterprise; On the contrary, all records are scattered in various branches or departments within the enterprise. The problem is that it takes a long time to coordinate transactions between indivials and private ledgers
1. Bubi blockchain company, which is engaged in the underlying technical services and instry solutions of blockchain. That is to say, an underlying blockchain is built, and an adaptation layer is built on it, so that enterprises can quickly establish commercial applications. The underlying blockchain is self-developed. The consensus mechanism is pbft, TPS is 5000 transactions per second, UnionPay is 2000 transactions per second, and bitcoin is 7 transactions per second. Of course, different underlying architectures lead to different performance, because Bubi's commercial blockchain pays more attention to performance. At present, Bubi is mainly used in digital assets, supply chain finance, supply chain traceability, public notary and other fields< 2. Bumeng blockchain. Theoretically, bumeng should be regarded as the proct line of Bubi, but Bubi is mainly engaged in the private chain, while bumeng is an alliance chain. So separately, bumeng is Bubi's layout in digital assets. The underlying technology is Bubi blockchain, but it encapsulates the blockchain according to the scene and provides API interface for enterprises. Enterprises issue their own assets on it. According to the characteristics of blockchain, they can freely circulate their assets. At present, some enterprises such as sunshine insurance, Qianxiang finance, crowdsourcing, Haohuo, etc. have joined in, and the assets in them include insurance policies, integral points, and so on Financial procts and so on. Finally, it is estimated that this platform will break through the barriers between assets, and the end users can freely use and transfer these assets. This is an interesting way for the blockchain instry, because it has both the opening of public chain and the security of private chain
Third, only chain, which is a commodity ID management cloud platform based on blockchain technology, provides enterprise users with commodity asset management, tracing, anti-counterfeiting verification, new supply chain management, etc. in the form of baas. Simple understanding is that only chain has done the content of "supply chain traceability" of Bubi blockchain
four, concentric mutual aid, concentric mutual aid is a mutual aid security platform, put some mutual insurance related information into the blockchain, and users can apply to become nodes, participate in bookkeeping, and maintain their own data
5. Xiaoyi is a decentralized network protocol based on blockchain technology, which digitizes the assets and interests of the real world, and carries out financial business such as registration and issuance, transfer transaction, clearing and delivery through point-to-point network
these five blockchain companies are probably well-known in China, and I personally recommend bumeng
first, bumeng uses the underlying technology of Bubi blockchain, which is very promising in the instry. It has the largest number of landing applications in China. Enterprises can not only use the blockchain technology at low cost (just call the interface, it seems that it is free), but also use the resources inside. Think about being on the same chain with many enterprises and docking resources in the future, User transformation should not be easy
Second, Weilian and Tongxin Huzhu focus on one field, and do not provide underlying technology and instry solutions. That is to say, if you are in this instry or can be used in the upstream and downstream of this instry, you can not be used in other fields. Take mutual security field as an example, zhongtuobang and zebra Club both choose bumeng. Of course, if it is an investment, you can consider it
Third, Xiaoyi, why not recommend Xiaoyi, because Xiaoyi is an open source project, and we all know the domestic business environment, especially when the instry is just beginning to develop, and the domestic market is different from that of foreign countries, Xiaoyi has gone through two rounds of ICO, which will be a great worry in the future operation, and at present, Xiaoyi has not been applied in practice, We have made a Fada platform, which has not been used by any company yet (guess it may be related to the factors of open source, who dares to open their data completely). Of course, the open attitude of Xiaoyi is worth encouraging. Although I guess the advantages and disadvantages of the code are well understood by peers, it is not clear
Fourth, why is there no recommendation for Bubby? Bubby has raised 30 million yuan a while ago, because Bubby is more open and has more resources. Of course, if the business requires high privacy, it can also choose Bubby blockchain
finally, for all my hard work, choose me!
From the current mainstream blockchain projects, blockchain projects are mainly divided into four categories: the first category: currency; The second is platform; The third category: application category; The fourth type: asset token
currencies mainly act as the "exchange media" in the field of blockchain assets, and the exchange media refer to general equivalents, such as gold and silver bills in the past< (currency exchange on trading blockchain assets)
platform projects refer to the establishment of technical platforms to meet the needs of various blockchain application development, which can rece the threshold of application development on blockchain
application projects cover a wide range of fields, including finance, social networking, games, property rights protection, etc., and are also the fastest growing fields of blockchain assets
asset token project refers to the blockchain mapping of physical assets, that is, the physical assets on the chain. At present, there are no more than 10 varieties
01 currency
the first category is currency project, which is also the earliest blockchain project. Currency projects mainly include bitcoin and lightcoin. In addition, there is another kind of asset with the characteristics of anonymity. Its main functions include protecting the privacy of both sides of payment while realizing payment. The well-known ones are dash, monero and zcash. Currency is mainly used as the "exchange medium" in the field of blockchain assets. The exchange medium is the general equivalent you use to exchange goods. For example, gold, silver and silver bills can be used as the exchange medium in the past. At present, there are more than 2100 types of digital assets in the world, and the number of currency blockchain projects has increased rapidly recently. As of June 2018, bitcoin is still the largest market value
02 platform type
the second type is platform type blockchain project. The main function of platform type blockchain project is to establish a technical platform to meet the technical requirements of various blockchain application development; In short, platform applications allow developers to directly issue digital assets and write smart contracts on the blockchain. Smart contract is a computer program running on the blockchain database, which can be automatically executed under the conditions of its source code setting
for example, you develop a smart contract based on the house rent protocol on the blockchain. When the owner receives the rent, it will trigger the automatic execution and give the security key of the apartment to the tenant
the main function of platform blockchain projects is to establish the underlying technology platform, so that developers can do application development on the underlying technology platform. A considerable number of platforms are still in the development state. As of June 2018, Ethereum has the largest market value
03 application
the third category is application blockchain projects. Application projects are blockchain projects based on blockchain development platform (such as Ethereum), which can solve many problems in various fields of the real economy
for example, augur, Golem, vechain, omisego, which provides asset exchange and transfer services. Using blockchain technology, these projects can better solve the problems of trust and cross-border circulation. At the same time, using smart contracts and tokens on the blockchain, they can better realize automatic execution and greatly improve the efficiency of social and economic activities. Application blockchain projects cover a wide range of fields, including finance, social networking, games, property rights protection and so on. It is also the field with the fastest market value increment of blockchain projects at present
04 asset token
the fourth category is the asset token blockchain project. Asset token refers to linking the blockchain assets to physical assets such as gold and US dollars, which is the blockchain mapping of physical assets. As of February 2018, there are no more than 10 varieties. The typical representatives are usdt against US dollars, digix Dao against gold, Digix each token represents 1 gram of Gold Certified by the London Bullion Market Association. Asset token has the advantages of convenient transaction and safekeeping. First of all, asset token is more convenient for transaction. Because blockchain assets can be split, it has better liquidity
for example, at present, real estate needs to be transferred as a whole. If the real estate can be token, it can be split and purchased, which is more convenient for transaction. Secondly, the token of physical assets is more concive to custody. Gold is easy to wear out and cause losses in physical transactions, but there is no need for physical transfer after the token of physical assets, which is more concive to the custody of physical assets
Blockchain instry development trend analysis technology has broad application prospects
with the characteristics of point-to-point payment, openness and transparency, the most direct application field of blockchain technology application is payment field. However, there are many pain points in domestic ticketing instry, such as too many agent levels, rampant scalpers, selling more than one ticket, fake tickets, lack of credit, etc, It can be solved by blockchain technology. The traditional ticketing mode needs the support of centralized facilities such as the third-party ticketing platform, and the information is extremely asymmetric. The new ticketing mode based on blockchain technology can realize point-to-point transaction, and the whole process is transparent and traceable
blockchain e-ticketing platform
{rrrrrrr}
data source: the financial field of blockchain + application sorted out by prospective instry research institute is reshaping the financial instry pattern
the open and tamperable attribute of blockchain technology provides the possibility for decentralized trust mechanism,
has the potential to change the financial infrastructure. All kinds of financial assets, such as equity, bonds, bills, warehouse receipts, fund shares, etc., can be integrated into the blockchain ledger to become digital assets on the blockchain. They can be stored, transferred and traded on the blockchain, which makes them have a very broad application prospect in the financial field
by recing the cost of cross-border payment, securities trading and compliance, blockchain technology can save banks $15 billion to $20 billion a year
through the application of intelligent contract, blockchain + insurance can realize automatic claim settlement of insurance policy. Insurance institutions have high management and operation costs, and the data on the blockchain is true and reliable, which can effectively simplify the processing process of policy claims. In addition, the blockchain technology can realize the digital management of personal data, simplify information authentication, and help to trace the history of data
entertainment of blockchain + application: the development ecology of blockchain has taken shape, and the media instry may become the main beneficiary
blockchain technology can be widely used in news, games, picture right and other entertainment fields
blockchain technology will bring great changes to the underlying structure of the game and have a great impact on the current game instry. Gamers now have gatekeepers (centralized organizations) to decide prices, tax, censor users, control content, and profit from data. Through the decentralized platform, consumers can socialize and trade without mediation, providing more control and flexibility for game players in the game experience
blockchain + applied supply chain: it can improve the transparency of the supply chain, establish a new supply chain system
blockchain technology can improve the transparency, traceability and security of the supply chain, and promote a kind of trust and integrity. 1) At present, the supply chain has many disadvantages, such as long chain, many intermediate links, many interest joints, opaque and so on; 2)
the distributed bookkeeping technology of blockchain can register the transfer of goods on the ledger as a transaction, and determine the participants related to the proction chain management, as well as the proct price, date and location
is the first cryptocurrency that can be mined by ordinary people through mobile phones
what is the way of zero cost free mining in the whole process? No, it's airdrop π I'll dig it myself. Now I'll order it every day. If it's worth money one day,

take a brief introction to them: Hexi chain is the world's first intelligent in transit data blockchain project based on blockchain technology. It is a disintermediated public blockchain platform. Developers can simply, quickly and safely release token (ENC), intelligent contract and blockchain system by using Hexi chain.
