Application of blockchain technology in Finance

1. blockchain belongs to it technology, and finance is an application direction of blockchain
the core advantage of blockchain technology is decentralization, which can realize point-to-point transaction, coordination and cooperation based on decentralized credit in a distributed system without mutual trust by means of data encryption, time stamp, distributed consensus and economic incentive, so as to solve the high cost and low cost of centralized institutions Low efficiency and data storage insecurity provide solutions
the application fields of blockchain include digital currency, token, finance, anti-counterfeiting traceability, privacy protection, supply chain, entertainment, etc. with the popularity of blockchain and bitcoin, many related top domain names have been registered, which has a great impact on the domain name instry.

2. Blockchain is a revolutionary underlying technology. Its original function is bookkeeping. As a distributed general ledger, it can solve the credit problem, notarization problem, audit problem, right confirmation problem, etc. of the ledger, as well as the digital demand of physical assets. Blockchain application scenarios are characterized by "new database, multi business entities and mutual distrust". The financial instry has the characteristics of low trust among participants and high requirements for transaction record security and completeness, which is very consistent with the application characteristics of blockchain technology. Therefore, the financial services instry is one of the instries with the most blockchain technology landing projects and the most abundant scenarios, such as supply chain finance, asset securitization, credit reference and risk control. In the financial field, blockchain technology can not only reform the financial infrastructure, but also play a synergistic role in the scenes of supervision, transaction, credit reference, virtual currency and so on. For example, in the traditional financial environment, supervision is managed by reporting data from various business organizations, which will cause many disadvantages, such as "black box" operation, decision-making delay and so on. However, under blockchain finance, with the advantages of information transparency and penetration and regional centralization, the regulatory authorities can grasp all business information at the first time. At present, Internet financial companies such as fox financial services are vigorously developing blockchain technology. Through the characteristics of decentralized blockchain technology and distributed storage, they can enhance user information management and enhance regulatory efficiency.

3. Blockchain is a distributed point-to-point structure with the advantages of decentralization, openness, transparency, high degree of security and strong traceability. It is an effective technology to thoroughly solve the problems of trust, efficiency and trade. Therefore, blockchain technology is most likely to bring about changes in the financial field, such as exchange clearing, cross-border payment, inter-bank clearing, etc. At the same time, blockchain technology can also help solve many collaborative problems of the real economy, such as logistics, supply chain and so on. For example, for insurance companies, blockchain can prevent insurance fraud and solve the "qualitative management problem". Moreover, the promotion of smart contracts helps to improve the user experience
however, it is still in the experimental stage, but the capital has quickly followed up the layout. According to the data of the in-depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of China's blockchain instry released by foresight Instry Research Institute, from 2012 to 2015, the amount of venture capital in the blockchain field increased by more than 200 times, from US $2 million to US $469 million, and about 205 venture capital institutions participated in the investment
however, although the development of blockchain is still hot, it is far from large-scale application, at least facing problems in technology, application, security and other aspects. More importantly, the government did not follow up, so the relevant enterprises had to consider the policy risk.

4. In mid March, Hunan released the "Hunan digital economy development plan (2020-2025)", which shows the blockchain integration application project, and points out that it is necessary to accelerate the breakthrough of core key technologies, cultivate the instrial ecology of blockchain, and actively expand the application scenarios of blockchain. By 2025, five provincial blockchain instrial parks will be established to expand a number of typical application scenarios, Form 10 leading blockchain enterprises with national influence. Cipher finance mimacaijing focuses on blockchain information.

5. The main advantages of blockchain technology in the financial field are disintermediation and cost rection. First of all, e to the prevention of single point of failure and systemic risk, the financial instry needs to carry out layer upon layer audit to control the financial risk, but it also causes high internal costs. Blockchain technology can greatly rece the cost of the entire financial system through tamper proof and high transparency. There is a lot of blockchain related information in the chain broadcast. You can have a look if you are interested.

6. All instries can be combined with blockchain, and all instries must engage in blockchain plus. At present, they have launched the online live course, which covers the frontier knowledge of blockchain such as frontier technology, landing application mode, the latest instry trend, and so on. It is very worth watching.
