MFA public chain of digital currency
blockchain includes public blockchain, joint (instry) blockchain and private blockchain. Public chain point-to-point e-cash system: bitcoin, smart contract and decentralized application platform: Ethereum
blockchain is a new application mode of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and other computer technologies
blockchain is an important concept of bitcoin. In essence, it is 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 a batch of bitcoin network transaction information, Used to verify the validity of its information (anti-counterfeiting) and generate the next block
extended data
according to the different degree of blockchain network centralization, three kinds of blockchains under different application scenarios are differentiated:
1. The blockchain with the whole network open and without user authorization mechanism is called public chain
2. The authorized nodes are allowed to join the network, and the information can be viewed according to the authority. It is often used in the inter agency blockchain, which is called alliance chain or instry chain
3. All the nodes in the network are in the hands of one organization, which is called private chain
alliance chain and private chain are also called licensing chain, and public chain is called non licensing chain
blockchain features
1, 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
2. 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
3. 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
4. Safety. As long as 51% of all data nodes cannot be controlled, the network data cannot be arbitrarily manipulated and modified, which makes the blockchain itself relatively safe and avoids subjective and artificial data changes
5. Anonymity. Unless there are legal requirements, technically speaking, the identity information of each block node does not need to be disclosed or verified, and the information can be transferred anonymously
issued based on Ethereum public chain should be observed according to the price trend of the platform.
Public chain, also known as "public chain", refers to the blockchain that anyone in the world can enter the system at any time to read data, send confirmatory transactions and compete for bookkeeping. The public chain is generally considered to be "completely decentralized", because no indivial or institution can control or tamper with the reading and writing of data in it. In terms of application, blockchain public chain mainly includes bitcoin, Ethereum, super ledger, most counterfeit currencies and smart contracts. The ancestor of blockchain public chain is bitcoin blockchain, which has the following characteristics:
1, open source code
upload the code to GitHub, and everyone can get complete blockchain data by downloading, Accept the test of the public
2, complete decentralization
anyone can become a node, each node is open, everyone can participate in the calculation of the blockchain, any node is not permanent, but phased, and any center is not mandatory for nodes. Anyone can read and send transactions, and transactions can be effectively confirmed on the blockchain. Anyone can participate in the consensus process. The consensus process determines whether a block can be added to the blockchain and the exact current state. Everyone can get financial reward from it, which is proportional to their contribution to the consensus process. These public chains are generally considered to be "completely decentralized"
3. Developing decentralized applications
through this public chain, developers can easily develop centralized applications. Public chain can protect the rights and interests of users from the influence of program developers
taking bitcoin as an example, it does not have an entity form, but exists in a special account book. All bitcoin transactions are recorded in the ledger. Through the transaction records, we can calculate the number of bitcoins owned by each user. If a person owns bitcoin, it means that he can find the relevant transaction records in the ledger
the ledger mentioned here is a software that we can download from bitcoin's official website, and the underlying technology used in this software is blockchain. In order to facilitate understanding, we usually say that blockchain is the ledger
the reason why blockchain is used as the underlying technology of ledger is to realize the feature of digital currency decentralization. It can be said that the starting point of a series of problems and solutions of digital currency comes from decentralization
2. Blockchain is a technology to ensure the safe use of digital currency. As we all know, blockchain technology has the characteristics of encryption and non tampering, which can rece the probability of errors in the use of digital currency to 0. Because digital currency requires higher encryption, it must be supported by blockchain technology. At present, not only many instries in China are using blockchain technology, but also many foreign countries are actively using blockchain technology.
however, Yuanbao coin, Ruitai coin, bitcoin and the tokens of different crowdfunding projects in Europe are excellent digital currencies.
