2017 blockchain project
quantum chain
The following are the reasons why 2017 will be the most critical year for blockchain:
the lasting value of bitcoin
bitcoin, the initial tool of blockchain, ended 2016 with a high profile, which is a good omen
just after the new year, fortune reported that
"after the prosperity of 2016, the price of bitcoin has reached $1000, which has increased by 120% since the beginning of this year, and recently reached the highest point in three years. The reasons, including the devaluation of RMB, the risk of China's currency control and geopolitical instability, have been considered as the key factors for the success of cryptocurrency. Another reason for bitcoin's landmark year is its staying power - the longer it stays, the more familiar it will be, and more like a real store of value. "
whether it is fair or not, the feasibility of blockchain technology is always closely related to the performance of bitcoin. If the decentralized database can succeed in the financial field, it can also be widely used in other places. According to convention, the healthy development of digital currency has triggered a discussion on how to integrate blockchain into new areas. With healthy bitcoin, blockchain can expand rapidly in other fields
existing participants
of course, this has existed for some time, because the blockchain has been firmly bound to bitcoin. Over the years, many groups have invested a lot of money to apply the technology to a wider range of areas, while adding new features and creating new applications. If 2017 is a great year for blockchain, these existing players must be ready to grow with it
this trend is marked by the addition of 8 new members to the hyperledger project before the end of 2016. Software company CA technologies, blockchain project factcom foundation, healthcare alliance hashed health, Korean koscom, accounting company ledgerdomain, trade ecosystem developer lykee, sovrin foundation and telecom company Swisscom all joined in the project
Thehyperledger project has entered 2017 with an eye-catching membership list, and plans to introce blockchain feasibility case studies in actual use cases
new investment
the sign that the technology will make progress this year is that companies all over the world have laid the foundation for using blockchain status. Companies around the world applied for or accepted 356 patent applications related to blockchain or digital currency in November last year, almost double the number in the first month of 2016, according to the report of blog technology
Marc Kaufman, financial technology intellectual property expert at Reed Smith, told blog:
"we have witnessed an exponential growth in the number of patent applications, and we expect to see thousands of blockchain patents in the next five years."
the company is submitting patents in such a rapid way because the blockchain has finally achieved its goal from Utopia to digital ledger tool. With the increase of the number of patents, the new discovery of the index blockchain will enjoy wider legitimacy in 2017
it is only time to know the development trend of blockchain in 2017, and vice versa. However, it is obvious that the status of blockchain technology can be seen by all, which also proves the expectation of early investors for its potential and may develop new potential in the future
blockchain has also become a hot topic in the financial sector in China, and all major domestic financial institutions have tested blockchain projects. China Post and IBM have jointly developed a set of blockchain asset custody system; Puyin group launched the tea based digital currency Puyin
zilliqa project's token name is ZIL, which has been circulated and traded on 23 exchanges. Mainstream exchanges such as fire coin and coin an support it, so it is very convenient to participate. ZIL's maximum supply is 21 billion, of which 12.6 billion will be released directly through contracts, and the other 8.4 billion will be released in the form of mining awards within 10 years
the main network of zilliqa will be launched at the end of 2018 or the beginning of 2019, and the mining reward is rich, especially in the early stage. The electric power cost of zilliqa mining is only 1 / 9 of that of Ethereum, so it is more feasible with less energy consumption. In addition, mining can be carried out through GPU graphics card miner, and can simultaneously double dig ZIL and eth, bringing higher benefits for miners
pay attention to "zilliqacn" to learn more about the progress of the project.

3. Blockchain technology is suspected to be used in the digital currency that the central bank plans to issue.
if you dig by machine, you can dig to a very deep place. Some mines are 2000 meters underground
if it's drilling, the current deep drilling in the mainland can reach a depth of more than ten kilometers. The deeper the drilling depth is, the higher the requirements for technology and equipment are. Further down, it is not impossible to dig, but limited by technology and equipment.
