Is Ethereum blockchain open source
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"
although the pow mining mechanism is adopted, the block out mechanism of Ethereum is different from that of bitcoin. Due to the short block time of Ethereum, Ethereum is easy to form isolated blocks. Isolated blocks refer to the blocks that are not on the longest chain. Bitcoin's isolated blocks have no block rewards, but in Ethereum, isolated blocks can be referenced. The referenced isolated blocks are called "Uncle blocks", and their packaged data will also be recorded in the blockchain. Unlike bitcoin, Ethereum's TERT block has a reward, and each TERT block can get a reward of 4.375 Ethernet coins at most
Ethereum is a programmable and Turing complete blockchain development platform, which is equivalent to a decentralized global computer. In a programming system, there are usually some virtual machines to compile and execute. Java has JVM. In Ethereum, there is also Ethereum's virtual machine EVM, which can execute any complex algorithm code. Developers can use existing programming languages such as JavaScript or Python to create their own applications on Ethereum. Through Ethereum's virtual machine, you can easily issue digital assets, write smart contracts, set up and run decentralized applications, and set up decentralized autonomous organizations
eth is also known as the internal fuel of Ethereum. Unlike currency digital assets, Ethereum is not only used for transfer, but also for payment of smart contracts
in order to prevent the Ethereum blockchain from being full of junk contracts and junk applications, and to establish and run smart contracts on Ethereum, you must use eth to pay for smart contracts. For example, when you transfer your newly created digital assets on the Ethereum blockchain, you need to use eth to pay the handling fee instead of your newly created digital assets.
although bitcoin and Ethernet are both digital currencies, unlike bitcoin, the main purpose of Ethernet is not to build itself as a payment substitute, but to facilitate and monetize the operation of Ethereum, so that developers can build and run distributed applications
or when it is open source, there is a bug in 10 lines
the development of likelib public chain has the following stages: condensation stage, solid foundation (in the next 1-2 years), improvement of technical design documents, completion of basic mole code development, online main chain, continuous improvement of intelligent contract, multi chain parallel, cross chain consensus and other early functions, improvement of main chain, side face and surrounding ecology, including blockchain browser, light wallet and mobile wallet, Smart contract, virtual machine, compiler, development tools, multi language adaptation, etc. Establish, develop and improve open source community, start and promote more application access
in the integration stage, it will grow steadily (in the next 3-5 years), complete the implantation of more consensus moles, realize the self evolution of network, storage and other moles (support EB level data storage), form a standard technical solution system for docking applications in various instries, and explore a new ecosystem combining blockchain with big data, artificial intelligence and other fields. Form a mature open source community and establish application side chain on a large scale
in the sublimation stage, a technology platform integrating blockchain, big data and artificial intelligence will be established everywhere (in the next five years) to provide comprehensive solutions for the proction and operation needs of instry, agriculture and commerce. Form an open source community with the integration of blockchain, big data and artificial intelligence, and provide a comprehensive value docking and cooperation platform.
after entering the research of Ethereum, I wanted to start from the underlying source code at the beginning, but the whole process was rather difficult. After re analyzing our requirements, I felt that we could develop to some extent and meet some needs by using its existing interface, so I translated the comments of the source code, basically understood the role of each mole, and no further modification was needed, After all, Ethereum is also a project that took dozens of big bulls a long time to build.
it is very difficult for us to successfully transform it into what we want in a period of time. The faster, the easier, the better
and there is a very important problem. If Ethereum is changed, it will not be able to connect to its public network and use the second largest amount of computing power in the world. This is a matter of putting the cart before the horse. It seems that the answer is wrong, but the main expression is that if the subject wants to do development, it is enough to carefully analyze a project,
after all, the logic is almost the same. We should learn more about blockchain and pay attention to ATV
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.
