Blockchain is characterized by decentralization
The decentralization of blockchain refers to the form of social relations and content generation formed in the process of blockchain development. It is a new network content proction process relative to "centralization"
blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin, which is essentially a decentralized database. At the same time, as the underlying technology of bitcoin, it is a series of data blocks generated by using cryptographic methods. Each data block contains the information of a batch of bitcoin network transactions, which is used to verify the effectiveness of its information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block
blockchain is unified in the whole network, so it is logically centralized. From the perspective of architecture, blockchain is based on peer-to-peer network, so it is decentralized. From the perspective of governance, blockchain makes it difficult for a few people to control the whole system through consensus algorithm, so it is decentralized

characteristics of blockchain Decentralization:
decentralization, not without the center, but by the node to freely choose the center, freely determine the center. In short, centralization means that the center determines the node. The node must depend on the center, and the node cannot survive without the center
in a decentralized system, anyone is a node, and anyone can be a center. Any center is not permanent, but phased, and no center is mandatory for nodes
with the diversification of network service forms, the decentralized network model becomes more and more clear and possible. After the rise of Web2.0, the services provided by Wikipedia, Flickr, blogger and other network service providers are decentralized. Any participant can submit content, and Internet users can create or contribute content together

the third feature of blockchain assets is decentralized bookkeeping
the transfer you give to others will not be delayed for a few days because the bookkeeping agency is on holiday; Not because the bookkeeping institutions want to make profits, so they have to pay high fees; More will not be because of accounting institutions cheating, and suffer losses
because its bookkeeping is carried out by the whole network. The account book that you transfer to others will not be unified because of the loss of the account book data here or there, because the account book is jointly maintained by the whole network, and every node has a backup. If you transfer 0.5 coins to fire coin Niuniu, you two can look at the record data of the whole network together: whether it has arrived, several confirmed, etc., which is very transparent and fair.
jinwowo group will use blockchain technology to promote the legalization of big data business. The encryption of blockchain technology can ensure that the privacy of data sources can be better protected when big data is called, so as to eliminate the bad phenomenon of illegal reselling of big data and rebuild the rules of legal circulation and application in the data market.
1. The central node grasps the information of distributed nodes
2. The sub nodes do not master the information of other nodes (centralization, non-public transactions)
moreover, the pain point of centralization is that the security of the system depends on the security of the central node, and the distributed node has no control over it.
The characteristics of decentralization in blockchain technology are decentralization, distrust and collective maintenance
Decentralization: there is no centralized hardware or management organization in the whole network, the rights and obligations of any node are equal, and the damage or loss of any node will not affect the operation of the whole system. Therefore, it can also be considered that the blockchain system has excellent robustness2. Distrust: there is no need to trust each other when participating in the data exchange between each node in the whole system. The operation rules of the whole system are open and transparent, and all data contents are also open. Therefore, in the specified rule range and time range of the system, nodes cannot and cannot cheat other nodes
3. Collective maintenance: the data blocks in the system are jointly maintained by all the nodes with maintenance function in the whole system, and these nodes with maintenance function can be participated by anyone
extended data
blockchain technology has never excluded supervision, and supervision nodes can easily access any blockchain network. Because of the openness and transparency of the blockchain, the regulatory authorities can monitor the transaction data of the whole system more conveniently, and because of the anti tampering property of the blockchain
once a transaction occurs, it can't be changed or deleted, so it's impossible for the data fraud to hoodwink the supervision, which is more concive to the supervision of the regulatory authorities on the market behavior. Thus, blockchain will become an important tool for regulatory Technology (regtech)

decentralization. Blockchain technology does not rely on additional third-party management institutions or hardware facilities, and there is no central control. In addition to the self-contained blockchain itself, each node realizes information self verification, transmission and management through distributed accounting and storage. Decentralization is the most prominent and essential feature of blockchain
openness. Blockchain technology is based on open source. In addition to the private information of all parties involved in the transaction is encrypted, the data of blockchain is open to everyone. Anyone can query blockchain data and develop related applications through the open interface, so the information of the whole system is highly transparent
independence. Based on consensus specifications and Protocols (similar to various mathematical algorithms such as hash algorithm used by bitcoin), the whole blockchain system does not rely on other third parties, and all nodes can automatically and safely verify and exchange data in the system without any human intervention
