Blockchain and QR code
thank you
to know the difference between them, we need to know the definition of them first
digital currency: short for digiccy, which is the abbreviation of "digital
currency", is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy
blockchain: blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies. Blockchain is essentially a decentralized database, also known as the trust machine
from the above definition, we can know that blockchain is a technology, and digital currency is a kind of virtual currency
digital currency is not equal to blockchain
many people will understand blockchain as blockchain. Here I want to correct that digital currency is not equal to blockchain. Digital currency is only an application of blockchain, and some digital currencies may not be applied to blockchain technology.
blockchain is a general technology derived from bitcoin. It implements a decentralized database model. Bitcoin can be called blockchain 1.0 because it has no concept of smart contract. The key technologies of blockchain include cryptography encryption and decryption and consensus mechanism. Blockchain is generally used to combine with specific business logic, which needs to rely on smart contract, which provides an execution mode free from human interference
the IPO of ICO originates from the concept of initial public offering (IPO) in the stock market. It is the behavior of blockchain project to issue token for the first time, raise bitcoin and solve Ethereum and other common digital currencies.
there is a core difference between blockchain and Internet: the value of underlying protocols and upper applications of blockchain and Internet are completely reversed. It mainly comes from the two core features of blockchain:
the first feature is that zero knowledge proof changes the ownership of data. In other words, the user's personal data on the blockchain belongs to the user and does not need to be provided to the application and stored on the central server. Then the core support "data" behind the market value of Internet application layer services, such as bat, will lose its original value in the field of blockchain
another feature is the economic incentive model brought by token, which gives high value to the underlying protocol. In the Internet era, no one pays for HTTP protocol, no one pays for sending and receiving email, and no one pays for Google's search service.
blockchain originates from the underlying technology of bitcoin and is the blockchain technology of Internet. IP is connected by blockchain technology to form distributed accounting. It is not easy to tamper with and decentralize
code chain technology is the code chain technology of the Internet of things, which superimposes the Internet of things IDS one by one in a two-dimensional way to form personal records. The application of "code chain" technology will bring more efficient link forms of "people to people", "people to things" and "things to things"
Introction to code chain:
"code chain" refers to a "two-dimensional code chain" formed by using a smart phone to aim at the "two-dimensional code" and "scan", that is, to "generate a new two-dimensional code containing the scanner's DNA" and access to the "service". The whole process can be traced, supervised and managed
"code chain technology" is the most widely used two-dimensional code "scan" payment technology
code chain technology can realize more efficient link form of people to people, people to things and things to things
Introction to blockchain:
blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin. Blockchain is a series of data blocks generated by cryptography. Each data block contains the information of a bitcoin network transaction, which is used to verify the validity of the information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block
in a narrow sense, blockchain is a kind of chain data structure that combines data blocks in chronological order in a sequential way, and it can not be tampered with and forged by cryptography
broadly speaking, blockchain technology is a new distributed infrastructure and computing paradigm, which uses blockchain data structure to verify and store data, uses distributed node consensus algorithm to generate and update data, uses cryptography to ensure the security of data transmission and access, and uses intelligent contract composed of automated script code to program and operate data
the difference between code chain digital currency and blockchain digital currency:
the difference between "code chain digital currency" based on code chain technology and the existing blockchain digital currency is that "code chain digital currency" is based on the control of property rights, and uses "intelligent two-dimensional code" as the medium to transform the contracts of various instry chains into divisible, tradable, transferable, exchangeable Traceable "smart contract" and real right exchange within the code chain alliance. In the code chain monetary system, "intelligent two-dimensional code" means "SGR". That is to say, each commodity corresponds to a "smart QR code", and this "QR code" represents the "special reference property" of the commodity. Through special reference to the exchange of property rights, the exchange of goods (barter) can be realized. This two-dimensional code, which represents "special mention of property rights", can be used as the carrier and payment means of digital currency at the same time, and payment can be completed through "two-dimensional code scanning".
but if we have to compare them, we can first see the differences or connections between the two characteristics
the traditional server is centralized
take a look at the figure below, it is a typical centralized network, the most central is the server, the others are clients, the server is responsible for providing services to all clients, and the client obtains services from the server, such as downloading files.
as of April 18, 2020, the price of Leyte is about 305 yuan
litecoin (LTC) is an improved version of digital currency inspired by bitcoin (BTC). It was designed and implemented by a programmer who once worked in Google. It was released on November 9, 2011. Lightcoin and bitcoin have the same implementation principle in technology, but the creation and transfer of lightcoin is based on an open source encryption protocol, which is not managed by any central organization
lightcoin is a kind of network currency based on "peer-to-peer" technology, and it is also an open source software project under MIT / X11 license. It can help users make instant payments to anyone in the world. Lightcoin was designed and implemented by a former Google programmer (Li Qiwei). It was released on January 9, 2011
lightcoin is an improved digital currency inspired by bitcoin. The technical principle of lightcoin is the same as that of bitcoin. It also adopts a decentralized architecture, without any central organization control, and the new currency issuance and transaction payment transfer are based on open source encryption algorithm. All these are imitations of the design principle of bitcoin
however, lightcoin tries to improve the shortcomings that bitcoin has shown before, such as slow transaction confirmation, less total upper limit, workload proof mechanism leading to the emergence of large ore pool and so on. Lightcoin aims to improve bitcoin. Compared with bitcoin, lightcoin has three significant differences
first, the lightcoin network can process a block every 2.5 minutes (instead of 10 minutes), so it can provide faster transaction confirmation. Second, the lightcoin network is expected to proce 84 million lightcoins, four times the amount of money issued by bitcoin network
thirdly, the scrypt encryption algorithm first proposed by Colin Percival is used in lightcoin's workload proof algorithm, which makes it easier to mine lightcoin on ordinary computer than bitcoin. Each Leyte is divided into 100000000 smaller units, defined by eight decimal places
bill is a kind of valuable voucher, which needs a hidden "third party" role to ensure the safety and reliability of both parties in the transaction. However, with the help of blockchain, there is no need for a third party to supervise and verify the information transmitted by the two parties, nor for a specific physical object to be used as a proof to connect the two parties to obtain trust, thus realizing the "invisible" transmission of value between point-to-point
in the development of bill platform based on blockchain, Yingtang Zhongchuang said that the application of blockchain technology in the development of bill platform has the following functions: to realize the disintermediation of bill value transmission; Effectively prevent the risk of bill market; Change the existing system structure of electronic commercial draft; Improve operation efficiency; Standardize the market order and rece the cost of supervision
the advantages of the blockchain bill platform are as follows: the system construction and data storage do not need a central server, nor do they need a central level application; The integrity, transparency and verifiability of data can be traced and queried for any value exchange; The form of smart contract makes the bill programmable and controllable in the whole life cycle.
