Emerging professions in blockchain Society
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 technology is only a technical means of recording information, and its main characteristics are decentralization and transparency, which can be applied in any instry. The traditional mode of recording information needs the credit of the recorder to endorse it, and people have to pay for the credit cost. Compared with the traditional way of information recording, blockchain has unique advantages: everyone can record, and everyone has all the recorded information, which also means recing the cost of reputation. The so-called blockchain instry itself is a pseudo proposition, and technical means can be applied to any instry.
2018 has entered the countdown, and the first year of blockchain is coming to an end. In 2018, blockchain technology has received great attention all over the world, and the governments of various countries are actively making efforts in the field of blockchain in an attempt to seize the commanding height of the next instrial innovation. According to the blockchain instry yearbook, in terms of talent supply, there is a large shortage of blockchain talents, and there is a high demand for compound talents. In addition to social training and training, colleges and universities have started blockchain courses
for example, Stanford University, Massachusetts Institute of technology and University of California, Berkeley have begun to offer courses related to blockchain or digital currency. Moreover, many online courses and large-scale open online courses also began to provide relevant training services
it is true that as a "young" technology, the main force of future development of blockchain technology is bound to be young people. But at present, many practitioners in the blockchain instry are self-taught, without systematic professional knowledge training, or only one-sided talents in cryptography, programming, Internet technology, etc
and blockchain technology pays more attention to compound talents with multiple technologies, which may be the internal reason why blockchain talents are increasingly becoming just needed. In 2019, blockchain technical talents seem to have become new professionals, and will be highly competitive

The blockchain supervision and standard system will be further improved, and the instrial development foundation will continue to be consolidated- original title: market analysis of China's blockchain instry in 2019: enabling various instries to accelerate the application landing, there will be two opportunities for future applications
2019 - blockchain "mainstream application year"
since August 2018, the electronic invoice of blockchain was issued for the first time in Shenzhen. So far, it has issued more than 6 million electronic invoices, with an amount of 4 billion yuan, and has access to more than 5300 enterprises, Covering more than 110 detailed instries. In addition to the field of electronic invoice, blockchain has also been successfully implemented in many project scenarios, such as supply chain finance, legal deposit, cross-border payment, etc.
at the recent "thousands of people watching fire" conference of blockchain instry, the reporter of economic daily learned that in 2019, the technology implementation and application has brought blockchain into the "mainstream application year". On the one hand, many Internet giants have a solid technical foundation, on the other hand, they actively explore more valuable scenarios to find development opportunities in the enabling real economy
"blockchain technology can play the role of anchoring, sharing and increasing trust in the whole social information flow, making the chaotic information credible. Compared with the past, this is a" qualitative leap. " Zhang Kaixiang, chief architect of Weizhong bank's blockchain, said, "risk control and business rules design based on trusted data can improve efficiency, rece risks and rece operating costs." He pointed out that as a connector, it is not meaningful for a single enterprise to operate the blockchain, and it is more meaningful to share it as an open source solution to realize the ecological co construction of the instry
"we have been exploring and practicing open source, starting from the underlying technology platform and combining with the scenes of finance, instry, Internet of things, culture and entertainment, to jointly build an open, transparent and efficient technology and instrial community. Open source ecology helps to activate the creativity of the instry. We will continue to start from the open source community and improve a complete set of systems such as system construction and skills training, so as to benefit more people. "
in 2019, the market scale of China's blockchain instry will exceed 100 million yuan
China's blockchain instry is still in its infancy, but with the continuous support of national policies, the continuous progress of instry technology and the increasing demand of downstream application fields, China's blockchain instry is expected to continue to maintain high-speed growth. According to the statistical data of in depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of China's blockchain instry published by foresight Instry Research Institute, the market scale of China's blockchain instry was less than 6 million yuan in 2011, and the market scale of China's blockchain instry increased by 32 million yuan by 2017, By 2018, the market scale of China's blockchain instry has reached 67 million yuan, always maintaining a rapid growth rate of more than 80%. It is predicted that the market scale of China's blockchain instry will exceed 100 million yuan in 2019, and that in 2022, driven by policy support and downstream demand, the market scale of China's blockchain instry is expected to exceed 450 million yuan
market size statistics and growth forecast of China's blockchain instry from 2015 to 2022
data source: the audited enterprise asset confirmation, registration and circulation records, etc., sorted out by foresight Instry Research Institute, are stored on the platform in the form of traceability. Based on this, banks can carry out fast financing and loan business, save the cost of guarantee and other links, greatly improve the efficiency, and make the risk of financing and loan controllable as a whole
electronic data storage is an important application field of blockchain technology.
the provisions of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues concerning the trial of cases by Internet courts, which came into effect in September 2018, clearly states that electronic data storage can be solved by blockchain and other technical means. Xiang Dan, vice president of bibox digital asset trading platform, said that electronic data deposit is an important application field of blockchain technology“ Blockchain technology has the characteristics of preventing tampering, leaving traces in the event, post audit and security protection, which is concive to improving the credibility and authenticity of electronic evidence. The combination of blockchain and electronic data storage can rece the cost of electronic data storage, improve judicial efficiency and enable judicial business. For example, the contract management based on blockchain has been applied in many Internet courts. "
according to Zhou Jianrui, co founder of coinword, a trusted content community, the application of electronic data storage based on blockchain can also help deepen the reform of "release management and service" and improve administrative efficiency. In Beijing Haidian District and other pilot areas, blockchain technology is playing the role of efficient data sharing, secure transmission and credit support. When applied in the field of government affairs, it can realize real-time data sharing of various departments and effectively assist window personnel and examination and approval personnel to quickly verify the authenticity of materials. For example, the public security, civil affairs, housing management and other departments "on the chain", in dealing with real estate transactions can be fast and accurate, "one key" verification of multi-party information, greatly saving social costs
there will be two opportunities for the application of blockchain
because the social recognition of blockchain is not high, the people who understand and use blockchain are still very limited, and the penetration of blockchain into the real economy still needs a graal process. " Yuan Yuming, CEO of fire coin China, introced that they used the open, transparent and tamper proof characteristics of blockchain to explore a new path of art traceability and anti-counterfeiting by means of high-precision full pixel scanning and archiving; By constructing the trust mechanism in the multi-party cooperation scenario, the integral information platform for multi-party participation and resource sharing is developed“ Next, there will be two opportunities for blockchain application:
one is training. With the entry of enterprise giants one after another and the continuous penetration of the real instry, more people will learn about blockchain through training, which will become a new market demand
the second is to provide consulting and technical solutions to more traditional enterprises to help them penetrate the blockchain into more traditional fields and promote the consumption rection, efficiency enhancement, transformation and upgrading of the real instry. "
the instries that benefit from blockchain creation include: e to the high degree of integration, blockchain technology can not only provide technical support or meet the needs of scenarios for enterprises in the financial field, but also proce catalytic effect on some manufacturing enterprises after integration through their own characteristics such as high-end equipment
with the graal maturity of blockchain technology, six fields supported by science and Technology Innovation Board will adopt more and more research reports released by lianxun securities show that with the help of policy dividend and instrial capital, the application of blockchain technology is expected to develop rapidly in the future, and graally radiate to other instries and scenarios starting from the financial instry
Although Kuwait is small, its economy is very developed. Kuwait Dinar is a kind of currency issued by the state. It is the economic prosperity of Kuwait that makes the Dinar more valuable. However, this kind of currency has no universal circulation and can only be used in Kuwait. The US dollar has become a world currency
the increasingly prosperous oil economy has made the country take on a new look, the capital Kuwait City has also developed rapidly, and Kuwait City has initially become a modern city in the 1950s
