What is the prospect of blockchain
blockchain classification:
1 private chain
refers to the blockchain with certain centralized control. Only the general ledger technology of blockchain is used for bookkeeping. It can be a company or an indivial who enjoys the exclusive write permission of the blockchain. This blockchain is not very different from other distributed storage schemes. The participating nodes are only users themselves, and the access and use of data have strict authority management. Due to the existence of centralized control, alliance chain can also be considered as a private chain
features: because the user has the final say, the data inside can not be changed, and there is not much protection for the third party. Generally used for internal audit. The vice president of fire coin technology believes: there are indeed a large number of scenarios in the private chain that can meet the needs of the real world. Limited decentralization makes it easier to reach a consensus, which can make the transaction faster and more efficient, and can provide more controlled functions. Decentralization is the core value of blockchain technology. If the private chain can not make full use of the decentralized trust base constructed by the public chain in practice, its development space will be limited
2public chain
public blockchain is the earliest blockchain and the most widely used one at present. It refers to a completely decentralized blockchain like bitcoin blockchain, which is not controlled by any organization. Any indivial or group in the world can send a transaction, and the transaction can be effectively confirmed by the blockchain, and anyone can participate in the consensus process. Participants in the consensus process maintain database security through cryptography and built-in economic incentives
features: completely open, uncontrolled, rely on encryption technology to ensure security
3 alliance chain
multiple preselected nodes are designated as bookkeepers within a certain group. The generation of each block is jointly determined by all preselected nodes. Other access nodes can participate in the transaction, but not the bookkeeping process (in essence, it's still managed bookkeeping, but it's just distributed bookkeeping. How many preselected nodes are there, How to decide the bookkeeper of each block becomes the main risk point of the blockchain). Anyone else can make limited query through the open API of the blockchain
the nodes participating in the blockchain are selected in advance, and the nodes are likely to have good network connections. Other consensus algorithms without workload proof can be used on such a blockchain. For example, a blockchain has been established among 100 financial institutions, and more than 67 institutions must agree to reach a consensus
Prospect:
the development of blockchain technology has also brought changes in the operation concepts of various instries. New technologies and new concepts have promoted the new development of various instries. This driving force has a huge impact on society and the promotion of economic activities. Many new instrial phenomena will occur one after another, and the public will wait and see, It is expected that this new technology will be used by all instries and benefit all instries better
according to the "2019-2020 global blockchain technology layout and business investment trend research report" released by AI media consulting, with the further liberalization of policies in the future, China's blockchain instry will usher in a stage of rapid development, and is expected to enter the first echelon of global blockchain instry in an all-round way< The importance of blockchain technology to a new round of instrial reform has been paid more and more attention. Major countries around the world have accelerated the research and development of blockchain technology. However, because the instry has not yet formed a unified technical standard system, the application and promotion of blockchain are still subject to many restrictions< Second, the barbaric growth has ended and the instry has entered a new stage
after the capital winter of 2018, a large number of blockchain enterprises have been eliminated, the overall popularity of the instry has declined, and the capital has returned to rationality, and the barbaric growth stage of the blockchain instry is coming to an end. In 2019, policy factors will pull the blockchain back to the development wind, and capital and talents will flow into the blockchain instry again. With the continuous advancement of application, supervision and standardization, truly competitive blockchain enterprises will graally emerge, and the instry will usher in a new round of rapid growth.
in 2019, the market scale of China's blockchain instry will reach 1.2 billion yuan
in 2016, the market scale of China's blockchain instry will be about 100 million yuan, and it will grow to 1 billion yuan by 2018.
in 2019, the scale of China's blockchain instry will grow steadily, with an instrial scale of about 1.2 billion yuan. With the attention and attention of local governments, it is estimated that by 2022, the market scale of China's blockchain core procts and solutions and related derivative instries will reach 10 billion yuan
from the research results, in terms of consensus mechanism, China's consensus mechanism graally moves from single algorithm to mixed consensus; In terms of cryptographic algorithms, cryptographic algorithms such as secure multiparty computation, homomorphic encryption and zero knowledge proof are continuously integrated and applied; The research of cross chain technology and security technology has graally become a research hotspot
from the perspective of blockchain hardware, at present, the world's most important digital currency mining equipment suppliers are all located in China, and only bitmainland, Jianan Yun and Yibang technology occupy more than 90% of the market share
from the perspective of instry application, the financial instry is the instry with the largest number of blockchain technology implementation projects and the richest scenarios, such as supply chain finance, asset certificate aromatization, credit reference and risk control
in 2020, the blockchain instry will be further standardized
in 2020, China's blockchain policy will continue to be favorable, the standard specifications will be more perfect, the instrial scale will continue to grow, the technology will continue to innovate and develop, and the application demonstration effect in key fields will accelerate. At the same time, according to the problems existing in the development of China's blockchain in 2019, CCID blockchain Research Institute puts forward six suggestions: accelerating the formulation of top-level design, establishing and improving the regulatory system, accelerating the innovation and development of core technologies, promoting the third-party evaluation and certification, strengthening the cultivation of professional talents, and accelerating the implementation of applications in various fields
- the above data comes from the analysis report of China's blockchain instry market outlook and investment strategic planning of foresight Instry Research Institute
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.
the blockchain instry is in the stage of rapid development
China's blockchain instry is in the stage of rapid development. According to the data of the "in-depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of blockchain instry" released by foresight Instry Research Institute, by the end of March 2018, the number of blockchain companies with blockchain business as the main business in China has reached 456, from upstream hardware manufacturing, platform services, security services to downstream instrial technology application services, To ensure the development of the instry investment and financing, media, talent services, companies in various fields have been basically complete
according to the classification of application scenarios of top 20 enterprises in the ranking list, in addition to 13 enterprises focusing on the infrastructure and platform construction of blockchain such as underlying platform and blockchain hardware, the application scenarios of blockchain have graally enriched. According to the distribution of instry segments, there are 7 instry application companies, mainly Internet companies (Alibaba, Jingdong, Tencent) used in public welfare and commodity traceability, and innovative financial technology applications evolved by financial enterprises (Ping An, CMB, BOC), such as supply chain finance, bills and transaction clearing
as the blockchain can realize the non tampering of information, the possibility of data falsification is eliminated from the root, especially in the financial instry, which has high requirements for real data, it will embrace the blockchain more actively
analysis on the development trend of blockchain
Second, blockchain has become a new hot spot for innovation and entrepreneurship, and technology integration will expand new application space
3. Blockchain will be widely implemented in the real economy in the next three years and become an important support for the construction of Digital China
fourthly, blockchain creates a new platform economy and opens a new era of sharing economy
fifthly, blockchain accelerates the process of "credible digitization" and drives finance to "move from virtual to real" to serve the real economy< Sixth, the blockchain supervision and standard system will be further improved, and the instrial development foundation will continue to be consolidated
in addition, as an emerging technology, there are still many technical difficulties in the application of blockchain in the actual proction environment of the financial instry, such as throughput, scalability, consensus mechanism, privacy and security, manageability, etc
technological innovation such as blockchain is of great significance to the financial instry, which is expected to accelerate the process of "credible digitization" and continuously drive the financial instry to "move from virtual to real".
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

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
because of its health impact on patients, the lives of families affected by the victims, and the political and social impact of COVID-19 on the future, will continue for 10 years. P>
, let's look at the impact of COVID-19 on the society. This time, influenced by COVID-19, the speed of social development can be described as being dragged down. so many people in the world are facing unemployment or have lost their jobs, and so many enterprises have closed down, which means that the national development policy has been hindered and the pace of social development has been taken off. Can the unemployed find jobs in the future? This is still an unknown point. Even if the economy can recover in a few years and the employment rate can be pulled back, the problem is that some people may not find jobs in this impact. This effect also lasts for a lifetime< br />
first of all, in POW mining, it is the computing speed of mining machines (CPU, graphics card, ASIC, etc.) that determines who can dig the ore better, while in POS there are differences. POS mining does not require you to purchase additional mining equipment, nor does it take up a lot of computing resources
Second, the number of coins issued by POS and POW is different
originally, in pow, the bitcoin proced by a block has nothing to do with the coins you held before. However, in POS, the more money you originally hold, the more money you dig. For example, if you have 1000 coins that have not been used for half a year (183 days), the amount of coins you dig is as follows:
1000 (number of coins) * 183 (age of currency) * 15% (interest rate) = 274.5 (coins)
a day ago, Sheng Songcheng, counselor of the people's Bank of China and executive vice president of China Europe Lujiazui Institute of international finance, also said that the future of blockchain is to serve the real economy“ If blockchain and virtual currency are combined, and blockchain is mainly focused on virtual currency, I don't think blockchain will have a future. " Sheng Songcheng said
Li Lihui, head of the blockchain research working group of China mutual Finance Association and former president of Bank of China, believes that the future development direction of blockchain is large-scale application. In his view, how to achieve large-scale application depends on four factors: efficiency, cost, reliability and safety, and system
Zhu Min, former vice president of Bank of China, central bank and IMF, and now president of National Institute of finance of Tsinghua University, said at the Boao Forum: "when talking about blockchain, we should first separate blockchain from bitcoin, which is not a concept. As a technology, blockchain is revolutionary and unlimited in the future. Blockchain technology will have great application prospects in the future, and the future is very good. "
"the combination of blockchain and virtual currency has no future"
as early as 2014, Sheng Songcheng published an article in an authoritative journal, explaining that virtual currency is not currency in essence from the origin and essence of currency
in his view, if virtual currency overflows, monetary policy can not be implemented, and monetary policy is one of the main means of macroeconomic regulation and control in the world
according to him, when virtual currency first came out, the attitude of central banks was not unified“ But up to now, we have basically unified our views, at least we do not recognize it as currency, because it will hinder the implementation of the whole monetary policy. " Sheng Songcheng said< As early as November 20, 2013, Yi Gang, who was also vice president of the people's Bank of China, first talked about bitcoin at a forum. At that time, he said that from the perspective of the central bank, it was impossible to recognize the legitimacy of bitcoin in the near future. However, he also believes that bitcoin trading, as a kind of trading behavior on the Internet, ordinary people have the freedom to participate
at that time, Yi Gang's statement was interpreted as good news by some bitcoin investors. They believed that although the regulatory authorities did not recognize the legitimacy of bitcoin, they did not characterize it as illegal and would not directly interfere in the trading of bitcoin. But unexpectedly, the price of bitcoin fell to 4150 yuan the next day.
