There is an essential difference between Ethereum and bitcoin. What is the difference? Bitcoin defines a set of currency system, while Ethereum focuses on building a main chain (which can be understood as a road) to allow a large number of blockchain applications to run on this road
from this point of view, Ethereum's application scenarios are more extensive, which is why we say that Ethereum marks a simple monetary system in the era of blockchain
1.0, and a transformation to other instries and application scenarios in the era of blockchain 2.0
however, there is no perfect thing in the world. Although Ethereum has expanded the application scope of blockchain in all walks of life and improved the speed of transaction processing, it also has some disputes and doubts
first, the solution to the lack of scalability of Ethereum: slicing technology and lightning network
the bottom design of Ethereum, the biggest problem is that Ethereum has only one chain and no side chain, which means that all programs have to run on this chain equally, consuming resources and causing system congestion. Just like last year's very popular Ethereum game "encryption cat", when this game was very popular, it once caused Ethereum network paralysis
to improve the processing capacity, Ethereum proposes two ways: shard and lightning network. Let's introce these two technologies respectively
(1) fragmentation technology
vitalik buterin, founder of Ethereum, believes that the reason why mainstream blockchain networks such as bitcoin process transactions very slowly is that every miner has to process every transaction in the whole network, which is actually very inefficient. The idea of fragmentation technology is: a transaction does not need to be processed by all nodes in the whole network, as long as some nodes (miners) in the network are allowed to process it. Therefore, Ethereum network is divided into many pieces. At the same time, each piece can handle different transactions. In this way, the network performance will be greatly improved
however, the slicing technology is also controversial. As we all know, the important idea of blockchain technology is decentralization. Only when the whole network witnesses (processes) the same transaction can it have the highest authority. The Ethereum slicing technology is similar to the group witness, not all nodes witness together. In this way, it will lose the absolute "decentralization" attribute, and can only achieve the purpose of high performance by sacrificing certain characteristics of decentralization
(2) lightning network
lightning network uses the way of transaction under the chain. What does that mean? It means: when the participants of lightning network transfer money to each other, they do not need to confirm the transaction through the main chain of Ethereum, but create a payment channel between the participants and complete it under the chain
however, lightning network is not separated from the main chain. Before establishing a payment channel, you need to use the assets on the main chain as collateral to generate a balance proof, which indicates that you can transfer the corresponding balance. In the case that both parties of the transaction hold the balance certificate, both parties can make unlimited number of transfers under the chain through the payment channel
only when the off chain transaction is completed and the assets need to be transferred back to the chain, the balance change information of the main chain account will be registered on the Ethereum main chain, and no matter how many transactions occur ring this period, there will be no record on the main chain
another real benefit of lightning network is that it can save the cost of miners for you. At present, when we trade on the main chain of Ethereum, we need to consume gas and pay for miners. Once we move the transaction to the lower chain, we can save this part of the cost
Of course, lightning network is not perfect. When using the lightning network, the assets on the main chain should be used as collateral; And this part of assets as collateral can not be used before the user completes the transaction under the chain. This also determines that lightning trading is only suitable for small transactionsthe above is the problem of insufficient scalability of Ethereum, as well as the two main solutions: fragmentation technology and lightning network
Second, there are loopholes in Ethereum's smart contract and the infamous Dao event
Ethereum's smart contract is very powerful, but there are loopholes in any code. The biggest controversy of Ethereum's smart contract lies in the so-called loopholes, that is, security issues. According to relevant research, 34200 (about 3%) of the nearly 1 million smart contracts based on Ethereum contain security vulnerabilities, which will allow hackers to steal eth, freeze assets or delete contracts, such as the infamous Dao incident
(1) what does Dao meanbefore introcing the Dao event, let's first introce what Dao is. Dao is the abbreviation of decentralized
autonomous organization, which can be understood as decentralized autonomous organization. From the perspective of Ethereum, Dao is a kind of contract or a combination of contracts on the blockchain, which is used to replace the government's review and complex intermediate proceres, so as to achieve an efficient and decentralized trust system. Therefore, Dao is not a specific organization, that is to say, there can be many Dao, all kinds of Dao
(2) the infamous Dao event
however, when we talk about Dao now, we basically refer to the Dao event, that is, the infamous hacker attack event we just mentioned. As we know, the English word "the" refers to "the Dao event". The Dao event
refers to "the Dao event", because we just said that Dao is not a specific organization, there can be many Dao, all kinds of Dao
in 2016, slock.it, a German company focusing on "smart locks", launched the Dao project on Ethereum in order to realize decentralized physical exchange (such as apartments and ships). Since April 30, 2016, the financing window has been open for 28 days
unexpectedly, this Dao project is very popular. It raised more than US $100 million in just half a month. By the end of the whole financing period, it raised a total of US $150 million. Therefore, it has become the largest crowdfunding project in history. However, it didn't last long. In June, hackers took advantage of the loopholes in the smart contract to successfully transfer more than 3.6 million Ethernet coins and put them into a Dao sub organization, which has the same structure as the Dao. At that time, the price of Ethernet currency fell directly from more than $20 to less than $13
this event shows that there are loopholes in smart contracts, and once the loopholes are exploited by hackers, the consequences will be very serious. This is why many people criticize Ethereum and say that its smart contract is not smart
to solve this problem, many foreign companies begin to provide code audit services in order to solve the vulnerability problem of smart contract. From a technical point of view, some teams are currently testing smart contracts. Most of these teams are led by professors from Harvard, Stanford and Yale, and some of them have obtained investment from leading institutions
in addition to the problems of insufficient expansibility and loopholes in smart contracts, the controversy over Ethereum lies in the POS consensus mechanism it pursues, that is, the proof of equity mechanism. Under the proof of equity mechanism, if anyone holds more money and holds it for a longer time, he will get more "rights" (interests) and have the opportunity to get bookkeeping power, Bookkeeping can also be rewarded. In this way, it is easy to create the oligarchic advantage of "the stronger the stronger"
Another problem is the chaos of ICO. ICO is a common way to raise funds for blockchain projects, which we can understand as pre-sale. The outbreak of ICO projects on Ethereum has caused illegal activities such as fund allocation and money fraud under the banner of ICO, which has caused security risks to social and financial stabilityDTV share, Ethereum is an open source public blockchain platform with intelligent contract function. It provides decentralized virtual machines to handle point-to-point contracts through its private cryptocurrency, Ethernet. Key points: open source, smart contract function, public chain platform, Ethernet
compared with bitcoin, we can find that Ethereum is more difficult to develop a new encryption technology than bitcoin. This breakthrough has greatly reced the development cost and time for developers who apply blockchain technology. The emergence of Ethereum once again reiterated the need to split the center, as well as the feasibility and advantages of decentralized distributed applications, to the existing economic market, the financial sector a new direction of development and throw to the society a new entrepreneurial ideas and opportunities.
according to the introction, zcash uses a technology called zero knowledge proof (known as "ZK snark") to verify the authenticity of the transaction. It uses a public blockchain to display the transaction, but it will hide the amount of the transaction. Viewing the owner of the key (i.e. the owner of the coin) allows others to view the information associated with the key
in short, this method of calculation allows users to prove that they have the currency they want without exposing information about where the currency came from or is going. It's like zero knowledge proof allows you to enter a password on a website and verify it by the website's server without actually transmitting the password
in contrast, although bitcoin and other digital currencies are famous for their concealment of transactions, in real life, they can often track transactions through the records of ordinary bitcoin blockchain, so that people can accurately know the sender and sending location of bitcoin. Nowadays, zcash has realized the transaction of original data in the form of encryption, rather than publishing the transaction data to the public like bitcoin. Snowden also said that the anonymous zcash project can solve the monitoring risk of bitcoin
therefore, zcash, an anonymous function that pursues the ultimate privacy protection, is first considered to have great value in the financial instry. Foreign media pointed out that the traditional financial instry has an extraordinary demand for information protection. Although many people think that the privacy requirements of bitcoin and other blockchain systems come from crypto anarchists and liberals, the fact is that the traditional financial instry is promoting the hiding of transaction information on the blockchain
however, the anonymity of digital currency is also a headache for the regulatory authorities, and it is very difficult to popularize it in the world. At most, it is only a niche proct. However, the platform developed by using blockchain technology has great potential. For example, the blockchain content publishing platform decent, Ethereum's intelligent contract and so on.
Dongyang Public Security Bureau of Zhejiang Province immediately started the investigation and found that Qiao was not the only one who suffered losses. Through efforts, the police of the special task force determined the identity of the manager of the GBL trading platform and implemented the pursuit in time. The first case of fraud on bitcoin trading platform in China was solved
lawyer analysis:
Zhang Yanlai, senior special researcher of China e-commerce research center and lawyer of Zhejiang Jin law firm, believes that virtual currency is not a new concept. Q-coin and online game currency have long been known by people. However, the emergence of bitcoin once again makes people realize the power of virtual currency. Compared with the traditional q-coin, the biggest feature of bitcoin is that it does not have a unified issuing agency. The generation of bitcoin completely depends on computer algorithms, and anyone can participate in the issuance of bitcoin
this makes it difficult to trace the source of bitcoin, which makes it a real virtual currency. The anonymity, cross-border and other Internet genes of bitcoin make people see a new form of currency that may circulate in the future society, so the pursuit and use of bitcoin also continued to rise in 2013. Some foreign governments have recognized the legal status of bitcoin. In China, some online stores have begun to use bitcoin for trading. Restaurants that accept "bitcoin" consumption have appeared in Beijing. The first "bitcoin" investment fund in China is also being raised. After the Ya'an earthquake, one foundation has received a total of 65 bitcoin donations, with a market price of about 50000 yuan
of course, money laundering, fraud, gambling and so on will follow. This case is a typical case of fraud under the banner of bitcoin trading. As the first case of bitcoin fraud in China, the public security organs have also concted in-depth study and understanding of the professional knowledge related to bitcoin, and finally cracked the case. On December 5, 2013, the people's Bank of China, the Ministry of instry and information technology and other five ministries and commissions issued the notice on prevention of bitcoin risk, which first made it clear that bitcoin does not have the status of legal tender, and required financial institutions and Payment institutions not to price procts or services with bitcoin. The central bank believes that there are three risks in bitcoin Trading: high speculative risk; High risk of money laundering and being used by criminals or organizations. In the future, the future of bitcoin is not clear, especially in sovereign countries, which will take a prudent and conservative attitude towards currency, which involves financial order and national security. Therefore, the public should also raise enough risk awareness.
