Cases of blockchain in cross border payment
first, define the
blockchain as an open network ledger. It originated from bitcoin and is the underlying technology of bitcoin. In bitcoin transactions, all the information of transaction records will be packaged into a "block" for storage. With the expansion of information exchange, one block links with another, forming a blockchain
Second, the digital currency represented by bitcoin is a point-to-point e-cash system. Among them, every transaction will broadcast to all participants in the network, and it will be recorded in the account book after repeated confirmation, which is called "blockchain". Each participant will have his own account book. In this way, when false information occurs, it can be broken through mutual verification, so as to ensure network securityin the blockchain, every node is equal, and there is no centralized management organization. This "decentralized" feature makes the blockchain do not need to rely on a third party, its operation does not need any human intervention, and it can independently conct self verification. In addition, the network of blockchain is open to the world, and anyone can query data through the public port, so the whole system is highly transparent
In a word, blockchain is a reliable database and a reliable "account book". In the future, it will be applied in cross-border payment, securities, loans, voting, etc. For example, in cross-border payment, with the security of blockchain, you can remit money to the world anytime and anywhere, which saves a lot of intermediate links and high feesblockchain technology refers to a way for the whole people to participate in bookkeeping.

In fact, the application mode of blockchain cross-border payment is to use blockchain network to join traditional financial institutions, foreign exchange market makers and liquidity providers into the payment network and build a payment gateway. Through the payment gateway, the flow of digital assets on the blockchain can be connected with the legal currency in reality, so that the legal currency can be converted into digital assets on the blockchain, which is convenient for subsequent payment and transfer. Through the network connector in the blockchain payment network, we can connect traditional market makers, remittance agencies, remittance agencies and other institutions, abandon the intermediate transaction link, and realize point-to-point fast and low-cost payment

in addition, the security technology of blockchain has always been concerned and controversial. Nowadays, blockchain mainly faces five security problems: the security of underlying code, cryptographic algorithm, consensus mechanism, smart contract and digital wallet.
