The most important invention of Ethereum

1.

Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, is a Russian

at the end of 2013, vitalik buterin, founder of Ethereum, released the first edition white paper of Ethereum and launched the project. From July 24, 2014, Ethereum has carried out a 42 day pre-sale of Ethereum coins. In early 2016, Ethereum's technology was recognized by the market, and its price began to soar, attracting a large number of people other than developers to enter Ethereum's world. Two of China's three major bitcoin exchanges, huocoin.com and okcoin.com, both officially launched Ethereum on May 31, 2017

extended materials:

in 2011, butrin began to realize bitcoin under the influence of his father when he was 17 years old in high school. Butrin showed a strong interest in this new thing. In order to better understand this fully distributed currency, butrin began to read bitcoin forum and technical materials. He wrote bitcoin blog articles to earn bitcoin, although his hourly salary was only $2 an hour

when he made 20 BTCs, he took 8.5 to buy a shirt. But he realized at that time that if thousands of people from all over the world join the bitcoin community, an independent financial system can be created, and the application of blockchain is not limited to cryptocurrency, but applicable to all walks of life. Since then, Butlin has been working in this direction

in late 2011, butrin graally became famous in the community. A man from Romania invited him to co-founder bitcoin magazine and serve as the chief writer

what is Ethereum:

Ethereum is an innovation based on the application of technologies and concepts in bitcoin to computers. Ethereum itself imitates a lot of bitcoin technology to maintain the computer platform. Blockchain technology is one of them
Ethereum platform can safely run any program users want

advantages of Ethereum over other competitive currencies before Ethereum appeared, some digital currencies imitated bitcoin. However, these projects have their own shortcomings, they can only support one or several specific applications at the same time< However, the reason why Ethereum can surpass the limitations of these projects in the past is because of the core idea of Ethereum

what Ethereum wants to implement is a blockchain protocol with built-in programming language. Since it supports programming language, in theory, any blockchain application can be defined with this language, and then run on Ethereum's blockchain protocol as an application

The design of Ethereum is very flexible and adaptable

Ethereum target sets the advantages of blockchain technology, in order to add the advantages of blockchain, such as decentralization, openness and security, to almost all computing fields

blockchain applications of Ethereum

Ethereum has many blockchain applications, such as digital applications of gold and stocks, financial derivatives applications, DNS and digital authentication, etc

Ethereum has achieved more than 100 blockchain applications by many start-ups

Ethereum has also been closely watched by some financial institutions, banking consortia (such as R3), as well as large companies like Samsung, Deloitte, RWE and IBM. As a result, a number of blockchain applications such as simplified and automated financial transactions, merchant loyalty index tracking, and gift cards designed to achieve decentralization of electronic transactions have emerged

the relationship between Ethereum and blockchain:

Ethereum is a programmable blockchain

Ethereum does not give users a series of preset operations (such as bitcoin transaction), but allows users to create complex operations according to their own wishes

in this way, Ethereum can be used as a platform for various types of decentralized blockchain applications, including but not limited to cryptocurrency

like other blockchains, Ethereum also has a peer-to-peer network protocol. Ethereum blockchain database is maintained and updated by many nodes connected to the network. Each network node runs the Ethereum simulator and executes the same instructions. Therefore, people sometimes call Ethereum "world computer"

Blockchain 1.0 era usually refers to the development stage of blockchain application represented by bitcoin from 2009 to 2014. They are mainly committed to solving the problem of decentralization of currency and means of payment; After 2014, developers pay more and more attention to solve the technical and scalability problems of bitcoin. At the end of 2013, vitalik buterin released Ethereum white paper "Ethereum: next generation smart contract and decentralized application platform", which introced smart contract into blockchain and opened the application of blockchain outside the currency field, thus opening the era of blockchain 2.0< The so-called smart contract is actually a kind of computer contract that can be automatically executed based on prescribed trigger rules. It can also be regarded as a digital version of traditional contract. It was proposed by interdisciplinary legal scholar and cryptography researcher Nick Szabo more than 20 years ago. This technology was once not used in the actual instry because of the lack of programmable digital system and related technologies, until the emergence of blockchain technology and Ethereum provided a trusted execution environment for it

compared with bitcoin, Ethereum is a complete scripting language of Turing, which supports developers to create and publish arbitrary decentralized applications on the platform. Since its birth, there have been more than 200 decentralized applications based on Ethereum in the world

the chief researcher of bitwindow blockchain said: in the era of blockchain 2.0 represented by Ethereum, blockchain technology has graally expanded from the field of currency and payment to the field of finance. With the development of technology and the wider application of blockchain, the era of blockchain 3.0 beyond the monetary and financial fields will be around the corner. This article is excerpted from bitwindow. China's professional blockchain and digital currency instry analyzes the media, and adheres to a neutral, objective and dialectical attitude to understand and interpret the latest trends of blockchain and digital currency

4. At the top of Ethereum is DAPP. It exchanges with the smart contract layer through Web3. JS. All smart contracts run on EVM (Ethereum virtual machine) and use RPC calls. Below EVM and RPC are the four core contents of Ethereum, including: blockchain, consensus algorithm, mining and network layer. Except DAPP, all other parts are in the Ethereum client. The most popular Ethereum client is geth (go Ethereum)

5. In fact, the rise and fall of digital currency is a normal situation. The key is to see whether you are optimistic about its long-term value. Relatively speaking, if the long-term value is worth investing in, then the short-term decline can be ignored. At the same time, if you don't know much about digital currency users, it is recommended to choose a reliable and good platform for investment. The investment period needs more than six years, Word of mouth should always be good, you can take a look at AEX, fire coin these two, but also more reliable, you can also understand their own network first

6. Ethereum has established a programmable and Turing complete blockchain. On this blockchain, you can realize the proction of all kinds of digital assets through a simple program, and you can also accurately control the status of the blockchain assets circulating on Ethereum by writing a program, such as whether the asset is to be paid or locked or has a quota, whether the account is a treasure list or a white list Ethereum and other digital assets, etc. At the same time, Ethereum is a programmable, flexible and complete blockchain network foundation. On this basis, we can realize more functional procts of non regional fast chain assets. For example, I use Ethereum to set up smart contracts, which can be applied in personal daily economic life and enterprise economic activities. Ethereum is a new and open blockchain platform based on the concept of blockchain and blockchain assets. It allows anyone to build and run decentralized applications on the platform by using blockchain technology. In short, Ethereum technology is blockchain technology plus smart contract.

7. They are essentially the same, belong to the network virtual currency, but the way of birth is different, because the algorithm is different, so it leads to the difference of the total amount. Bitcoin is a kind of digital currency invented by Nakamoto Cong, which exists in the form of P2P. It realizes distributed accounting through blockchain technology. Due to its scarcity, its valuation is relatively high. Ethereum is a kind of digital token of Ethereum. Developers need to pay Ethereum to support the application. It was invented by a Chinese company based on bitcoin algorithm
if you want to understand the content of blockchain bitcoin, it is recommended to go to relevant websites to have a more comprehensive look, such as bitmaster and Babbitt forum.

8. Ethereum is also a proct of blockchain 2.0, which is an open intelligent contract complete solution. Bitcoin is the most important application of blockchain 1.0, which completes currency and payment transactions well. But when we need to record and transfer more complex asset types, we need the third step - a more powerful scripting system - to finally achieve Turing completeness (the ability to run any currency, protocol or blockchain). Ethereum is a blockchain based project, which aims to provide a Turing complete scripting language and Turing complete platform

blockchain 1.0 mainly refers to bitcoin. Blockchain 2.0 extends to all assets, while blockchain 3.0 goes beyond currency, finance, even commerce, and all areas of our lives, including politics, social relations, ecation, medical care, etc. According to the prediction and conception of people in the instry, the era of blockchain 3.0 will be realized in the next five years. At that time, blockchain will be recognized and accepted by all the public like the Internet, thus completely subverting our lives

McKinsey has submitted a technical report on blockchain to the Federal Insurance Advisory Committee of the United States. The report calls 2009-2016 the "Dark Age" and believes that all blockchain solutions ring this period are based on bitcoin, and the new era of blockchain will begin in 2016. At that time, the application of blockchain will become unprecedented. Applying an original sentence in McKinsey report: Based on the current development speed of blockchain, we believe that blockchain solutions may realize their full potential in the next five years.

I think the first reason why Ethereum has been setting new records is that it has a lot of capital

the second reason is that many ordinary people have paid attention to virtual currency . These ordinary people have strong purchasing power, and they may have been speculators in stocks or funds before. When they find that the virtual currency is rising well, they will bring a lot of money into the market. The admission of these ordinary people will increase more capital admission, because in the view of capital, these ordinary people are a crop of leeks

the third reason is e to the soaring price of bitcoin, bitcoin is now rising very rapidly, from $20000 a bitcoin in 2020 to $60000 a bitcoin now. It's terrible. For a lot of capital, they can't speculate on bitcoin. Because bitcoin's plate is too big, they have to go back and speculate on Ethereum

first, a large amount of capital has entered the market

at present, the global economy is not very good, there are not many things that can be invested, and the global currencies are devaluing and inflating for a lot of capital, their money will depreciate one day if they hold it in their hands. They need to invest their money. At this time, they find that the virtual currency can keep the value and will not inflate. At this time, there will be a lot of capital, with a lot of money to buy Ethereum. When a lot of people go to buy Ethereum, it is normal for Ethereum prices to rise
