Blockchain investment opportunities
in the Internet era, there is a database behind every system. This database can be regarded as a large account book. In the past, the person who maintained the system was responsible for managing the database and recording the user's behavior, that is, bookkeeping. However, the blockchain is "decentralized", which allows every member of the system to participate in it, not only everyone bookkeeping, but also through links, Everyone can have a complete account book
"blockchain is essentially a collective recording mode. What's special is that it adopts a set of techniques in an ingenious way to realize the authenticity and credibility of the recorded results, which is difficult to destroy and tamper with. " Zhang Xiaorong said, "first, everyone has the right to record and authenticate with each other to distinguish the true from the false, which is called consensus mechanism; Second, no one can tamper with the records, because there are cryptographic signatures; Third, everyone has a , so even if some account books are damaged, the whole will not be affected. This is called distributed storage. The information recorded in this way is presented in block mode according to the time chain, so it is called blockchain. "
various cryptocurrencies represented by bitcoin are originally an application of blockchain technology, which can be described as blockchain version 1.0. However, around 2014, the instry began to realize the important value of blockchain technology. Blockchain graally separated from digital currency and applied to various economic and social fields other than digital currency
it has broad application prospects
blockchain technology is considered as a disruptive innovation after steam engine, electric power and Internet. If the steam engine and electricity liberate the proctivity, and the Internet has changed the way of information transmission, the blockchain, as a machine for building trust, may change the way of value transmission
for example, in the financial field, the cost of reconciliation, clearing and settlement between financial institutions, especially cross-border financial institutions, has always been very high, and there are complex manual processes. The application of blockchain technology can help rece the cost of reconciliation and dispute resolution between financial institutions, and significantly improve the processing speed and efficiency of payment business, It also makes small cross-border payments possible. In December 2017, China Merchants Bank completed the RMB position transfer business from Hongkong Wing Lung Bank to Shenzhen Branch of Wing Lung Bank. This is the world's first interbank cross-border RMB clearing business based on blockchain technology
in addition, according to the white paper 2016 on China's blockchain technology and application development issued by the Ministry of instry and information technology of China, the application of blockchain has been extended to medical and health, ecation, charity, social management and other fields. Taking the cultural instry as an example, the low cost of reproction, the high cost of safeguarding rights, and the difficulty of providing evidence make the protection of intellectual property rights a pain point for the instry. With blockchain, the proction, dissemination and transaction records of cultural procts are true, transparent and reliable, and the problem can be solved
Zhang Xiaorong said that blockchain technology has solved two major problems in the era of Digital Economy: one is the visible flow direction, and the other is zero trust cost. In the past, the circulation of physical paper money was invisible, but the flow of all digital assets had a "chain" to check. Yang Yanchao, a researcher at the intellectual property center of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, also believes that the biggest advantage of blockchain is that it has truly completed the credit construction in an anonymous society, bringing new opportunities to many fields, thus making various innovative applications possible
there is a long way to go in the future development
in terms of technology promotion, there is no big barrier to blockchain, which has been confirmed in the global practice of bitcoin, and its main resistance comes from the obstacles in concept and implementation
"on the one hand, the society may be very concerned about the" naked "state in the blockchain. Blockchain has built a "Skynet" for the commercial society. The company's economic activities are all recorded, so there is no secret to speak of. In this way, some business strategies may not be implemented under the blockchain. "
"on the other hand, the current legal system lags behind the development of information technology, so how to put the emerging blockchain technology under the legal supervision needs to be studied." Duan Yongchao said
the core of blockchain is decentralization, which will have an impact on the long-standing central management model. In addition to the law, how to establish a regulatory environment that can promote the application of blockchain technology, so that the technology can benefit the society and not be used to do evil, is also an urgent problem to be solved.
Five aspects of blockchain instry growth potential promote the healthy development of Technology Virtual reality and other technologies are another emerging technology that will have a significant impact on the future, which is expected to promote human beings from the era of information internet to the era of value Internet
some countries and regions in the United States, Japan and the European Union have promoted the development of blockchain as an important national development strategy, and vigorously promoted the development and application of blockchain technology. China also attaches great importance to the technological innovation and instrial development of blockchain. With the joint participation of it and other enterprises, a large number of new enterprises, new procts, new models and new applications have emerged. The application of blockchain in the fields of finance, government affairs, energy, medical and other instries has graally expanded, and is becoming an important force to drive the technological proct innovation and instrial transformation of various instries
the development of blockchain can be divided into three stages, namely, blockchain 1.0, represented by bitcoin and related financial infrastructure applications, and blockchain 2.0, represented by smart contract. At present, it is graally moving towards blockchain 3.0, which is based on blockchain technology and more complex in-depth application of smart contract
statistical analysis of blockchain investment and financing in the first half of the year. According to the statistical data of in depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of blockchain instry published by foresight Instry Research Institute, in the first half of 2018, the amount of financing in the blockchain field was about 10.7 billion, with a year-on-year growth rate of 1426% compared with the same period in 2017; The number of investment and financing events in the field of blockchain has reached 205, and it is expected that the investment in the field of blockchain will usher in another peak this year
according to the distribution of investment and financing rounds in China's blockchain field, the proportion of investment rounds in the start-up period (before round b) is more than 95%, with the joint investment of many instry pioneers, and most enterprises are still running around
statistics and growth of blockchain investment and financing in the first half of 2014-2018
data source: China attaches great importance to the development and application of blockchain technology. Driven by multiple forces such as policy, technology and market, the pace of blockchain innovation has been accelerating. It has been deeply integrated with cloud computing, big data, Internet of things and other technologies. The scope of exploration and application has also expanded from digital assets to supply chain management, intelligent manufacturing, instrial Internet, social welfare, right protection and other fields
five aspects to promote the healthy development of blockchain technology, promote the high-quality development of digital economy
1, in-depth study and grasp the development trend of blockchain technology and instry. Pay close attention to the international development frontier, jointly promote the research of blockchain related technology and instry, promote the standardization of blockchain development instry behavior, and create a good development environment
2. Strengthen the construction of core technology capacity of blockchain
establish and improve the collaborative promotion mechanism among backbone enterprises, universities and research institutions, guide it enterprises to strengthen technical reserves, accelerate the breakthrough of key core technologies, and improve the performance, efficiency and security of blockchain
3. Support entrepreneurship and innovation in the field of blockchain
encourage cross-border integration between blockchain enterprises and user units, guide instry organizations to establish public service platforms, support third-party organizations to carry out evaluation and detection of blockchain services, promote rich instrial applications of blockchain, and serve the transformation and upgrading of the real economy
4. Actively build and improve the blockchain standard system
accelerate the development and application of key standards, and graally build a perfect standard system. Actively connect with ITU, ISO and other international standards organizations, substantially participate in more international standardization work, and actively contribute more "Chinese power"
5. Accelerate the improvement of the policy environment for blockchain development
support qualified enterprises to carry out application innovation and mode innovation, and guide and encourage enterprises, universities and scientific research institutes to jointly cultivate professional talents needed for blockchain development. Support eligible blockchain enterprises to enjoy the preferential tax policies of the state to support the development of software instry and small and medium-sized enterprises
the instrial scale is small, but the growth potential is huge
the blockchain economy is on the eve of the outbreak period. The financial instry is relatively widely used, and the application of other instries has also entered the stage of exploration and development. It is estimated that from 2017 to 2022, the direct market value of blockchain will increase from US $410 million to US $7.68 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of 79.6%. It is estimated that all kinds of extended business based on blockchain will reach US $100 billion in 2020
instry application areas continue to expand
the financial instry takes the lead in the application of blockchain technology, and many financial applications have been implemented; Medical instry is an important area of blockchain application, which can better protect privacy, improve service quality and management efficiency; The demand of social authentication for blockchain is rising rapidly to solve the proof problem caused by information asymmetry; The application of blockchain technology in communication, supply chain and other fields is expanding rapidly
blockchain is not easy to do since 18 years ago. The instry is deceptive, professional cut leek. I remember that the blockchain network reported that Li Xiaolai was cutting leeks. Li Xiaolai was going to build a blockchain network, so that their second round of financing had stopped. It was said that they had sold it to a technology company in Guangzhou
Blockchain is definitely the most hot topic in this era, and it is also the trend of future development. However, people's understanding of blockchain is always like a blind person touching an elephant, feeling like a pipe when touching his nose, like a wall when touching his stomach, like a pillar when touching his feet... In fact, none of them. It's only because we don't have a complete view and understanding that our cognition is not comprehensive, and then we may be used to deceive
Thirdly, there must be an investment guarantee mechanism The investment guarantee mechanism is easy to understand and difficult to implement. Investment protection mechanism includes: legal protection mechanism and return protection mechanismthe legal safeguard mechanism of course refers to legal compliance, which is best reflected in the form of contract agreement. This kind of practice is to cut off the back road, so that some people with ulterior motives can not take advantage of it
The guarantee of return is direct cash dividend. This is also an extremely important point in the investment standard. Must give the user cash dividend, cent currency cent equity is false, as cash to get the hands of the most solid. Most people belong to small and medium-sized investors. They don't have so much money to lose. Unlike large investors, even if they lose. If small and medium-sized investors lose money, it's a fatal thing, and even the whole family will never survive. Therefore, cash distribution seems demanding, which is actually a kind of protection for investors. If you want to live a few more days, you have to askthere are some dividend disks, split disks, and give you some coins. Do you have them useful? It can't be sold at all. It's still zero. If you give cash, it's different. If you give cash, you can use it immediately. Hard currency
at the same time, sharing cash can also show the determination of the project side and whether they really do things. One investment corresponds to one dividend. If they don't really do things, can they share cash? Just share it! Therefore, the practice of dividing cash is also an investment standard for many projects at present
if the three conditions are met at the same time, you can invest, and the high probability can double your investment; It's not that the three conditions are met at the same time, so you're waiting to protect your rights< br />
blockchain is a basic digital currency technology such as bitcoin, and it is also the only technology that has been applied to realize cash at present
now that digital currency trading has been closed in China, the vitality of the old brands who used to do well in China has been seriously damaged, and some units relying on overseas have risen, such as coin an, which is now the most popular.
From District TV network Share: in 2018, blocklink bar AI has become the most popular technical term, and more and more technology companies have announced to enter the blockchain market. In the Internet, Xunlei, Renren, Fengfeng, Tianya and other companies have blockchain related actions. These companies share the same fate. They have all experienced prosperity, but after the impact of Internet entrepreneurship tide, they began to go downhill. Then they rubbed against the hot spots of blockchain and began to try to counter attack
Global blockchain instry investment is hot
according to the data of the "in-depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of blockchain instry" released by prospective instry research institute, as of the end of April 2017, there were 455 blockchain companies in the world, with a total financing amount of US $1.947 billion. Among them, the total investment and financing of us blockchain related companies reached US $1.252 billion, accounting for 64.3% of the global market; The total financing amount of China's blockchain emerging enterprises is about US $114 million, accounting for 5.86%, ranking second in the world after the United States, and growing rapidly
at present, the overall survival status of blockchain is good, with a survival rate of 87.25%. Among all the invested companies, 47 have been closed, accounting for about 10.51%, and the other 10 have been acquired. Due to the change of competition pattern in bitcoin market, some companies have been forced to shut down. Meanwhile, some coin circle companies are graally transforming to chain circle companies.
exploration at the national level has also begun. On March 23, the information technology and Software Services Department of the Ministry of instry and information technology announced that it will study and explore the application of blockchain in the instrial field. Previously, the Ministry of instry and information technology said that it was preparing to establish a National Technical Committee for standardization of blockchain and distributed accounting technology to explore the formation of a complete blockchain standard system to better serve the development of blockchain technology instry
blockchain technology is a decentralized consensus mechanism to maintain a complete, distributed and tamperable ledger database. It can enable the participants in the blockchain to achieve a unified ledger system without establishing a trust relationship
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
securities issuance and trading
the probability of various kinds of errors in general stock and other securities trading 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.
blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin, which is essentially a decentralized database and the underlying technology 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
blockchain is public on the network and can be queried in every offline bitcoin wallet data. The function of bitcoin wallet depends on the confirmation with the blockchain. An effective inspection is called a confirmation. Usually, a transaction needs to obtain several confirmations. The lightweight bitcoin wallet uses online confirmation, that is, it will not download the blockchain data to the device storage
many of bitcoin's competitors also use the same design, but the workload proof and algorithm are slightly different. For example, the use of proof of interest and scrypt and so on
bitcoin, Ruitai, Weimeng, Laite and Ethereum are all developed on the basis of blockchain.
