blockchain is a digital account book that can be jointly bookkept, and will record all transactions that have occurred and have been unanimously recognized by the system it's the same as the whole family. You're bookkeeping, and your father and mother are also bookkeeping. They can see the general ledger, but the saved information can't be tampered with any more
In 2008, Nakamoto first proposed the concept of blockchain subsequently, blockchain has become the core component of electronic currency bitcoin, which serves as the public account book for all transactions. By using peer-to-peer network and distributed timestamp server, the blockchain database can be managed independentlyextended data:
type of blockchain
1, public blockchain
any indivial or group in the world can send transactions, and transactions can be effectively confirmed by the blockchain, and anyone can participate in its consensus process. Public blockchain is the earliest and the most widely used blockchain. The virtual digital currencies of bitcoin series are all based on public blockchain. There is only one blockchain corresponding to this currency in the world
2, Alliance (instry) blockchain
instry blockchain: multiple preselected nodes are designated as bookkeepers within a group, and the generation of each block is jointly determined by all preselected nodes (preselected nodes participate in the consensus process), and other access nodes can participate in the transaction, However, regardless of the bookkeeping process (in essence, it is still managed bookkeeping, only distributed bookkeeping, how many preselected nodes, and how to determine the bookkeeper of each block to become the main risk point of the blockchain), anyone else can conct limited query through the open API of the blockchain
3, private blockchain
only uses the general ledger technology of blockchain for bookkeeping. It can be a company or an indivial, and enjoys the write permission of the blockchain. This blockchain is not very different from other distributed storage schemes
I. blockchain 1.0 cryptocurrency era (2008-2013)
&
in 2008, Nakamoto first proposed the concepts of bitcoin and blockchain, and then in January 2009, the first blockchain came out. At this stage, people pay more attention to the transaction of cryptocurrency, and blockchain is only used as the underlying technology to act as a "public account book"< br />
2. Blockchain 2.0 smart contract era (2014-2017)
&
in 2014, & quot; Blockchain 2.0 "has become the pronoun of decentralized blockchain database. At this stage, people mainly focus on the application of the platform. Anyone can upload and execute the smart contract on the blockchain, and will be rewarded automatically after the execution. Because this transaction process does not need any intermediary, so people's privacy has been greatly protected< br />
III. blockchain 3.0 large scale application era (2018 -)
&
at this stage, people begin to build a completely decentralized data network, and the application of blockchain technology is no longer limited to the economic field, but expanded to the fields of art, law, real estate, hospital, human resources and so on.
To put it simply, blockchain is a decentralized system, with & lt; Ledger & quot; For example, traditional & lt; Ledger & quot; It is controlled by the center, while the blockchain & lt; Ledger & quot; Without a center, everyone involved can be & lt; Ledger & quot; Record
blockchain generally refers to public blockchain, family members, private blockchain and instry blockchain{ Conclusion< p> Blockchain technology provides a fair platform for the public. Xiaobian believes that the application scope of blockchain technology will be wider and wider
