Let's make it in 2017
in fact, Mr. Xiao Zaojun paid attention to this very early. Last year, I wrote a popular science article about blockchain and bitcoin. At that time, the price of bitcoin seemed to be $3000, and many people suggested that I start. After thinking about it, I still didn't buy it
later, bitcoin soared and plummeted, peaking at $20000, and then quickly fell to $8000. I'm both sorry and glad<
today, I've also rerouted that article (with some revisions). I hope it will help you to know more about blockchain and bitcoin technology
in my opinion, whether you invest in bitcoin or not, whether you believe in blockchain or not, first of all, you should fully understand them
today, let's talk about blockchain and bitcoin
well, here's the thing -
these days, if you haven't heard of bitcoin, it's really out
when you see the glittering gold coin, is it a moment of spirit
in other words, bitcoin is not an ordinary fire nowadays. Some friends always come to ask Mr. Xiao Zaojun about it. Even when you take the subway, you can hear people around you talking about it<
bitcoin has been used for several times, and the most influential one is this:
children's shoes must be familiar, and indivial children's shoes are expected to be shocked
Yes, this is the blackmail window that popped up after computer poisoning when wannacry blackmail virus broke out in May 2017
the words in the blue box are the way blackmailers ask for ransom - "only accept payment in bitcoin", and others are not recognized. At the same time, the blackmailer also kindly tells you how to buy bitcoin
as a result, bitcoin, along with the blackmail virus, swipes the screen all over the world, greatly enhancing its popularity.
lightcoin is inspired by bitcoin (BTC) and has the same implementation principle in technology. The creation and transfer of lightcoin is based on an open source encryption protocol and is not managed by any central authority. Lightcoin aims to improve bitcoin. Compared with bitcoin, lightcoin has three significant differences. First, the lightcoin network can process a block every 2.5 minutes (instead of 10 minutes), so it can provide faster transaction confirmation. Second, the lightcoin network is expected to proce 84 million lightcoins, four times the amount of money issued by bitcoin network. Thirdly, the scrypt encryption algorithm first proposed by Colin Percival is used in lightcoin's workload proof algorithm, which makes it easier to mine lightcoin on ordinary computer than bitcoin. Each Leyte is divided into 100000000 smaller units, defined by eight decimal places.
EOS is owned by an organization called block.one, but most people contact EOS by Daniel Larimer (BM), a software developer who has been involved in other blockchain projects, including bitshares and steemit, a distributed social network. The CEO is Brendan Blumer, a serial entrepreneur
EOS is considered as Ethereum for large enterprises
EOS public chain allows people to build decentralized applications (dapps) on it and run these applications
according to the developers, the difference between EOS and Ethereum is that EOS solves the performance shortage and availability problems encountered by developers when using Ethereum. There are other small differences that we will discuss below
{rrrrrrr}
extended data:
generation of EOS:
unlike bitcoin, EOS is not obtained by mining. Bitcoin's consensus protocol, known as workload proof, uses a lot of power and can only handle limited transactions
On the contrary, EOS allocated 1 billion EOS tokens in one year's ICO. After that, EOS uses a consensus protocol called certificate of entitlement (dpos) to create the blocks that make up the blockchainin this system, the community votes for the witness who is responsible for verifying the transaction. If the witness misbehaves, the community members can also vote, and others will take their place
The main features of EOS are as follows:1. EOS is a bit similar to Microsoft's windows platform. By creating a developer friendly underlying platform of blockchain, it supports multiple applications running at the same time and provides the underlying template for the development of DAPP
EOS solves the problems of delay and data throughput by means of parallel chain and dpos. EOS can process thousands of data per second, while bitcoin has about 7 transactions per second, and Ethereum has 30-40 transactions per second There is no service charge for EOS, and the general audience is more extensive. The network and computing resources needed to develop DAPP on EOS are allocated according to the proportion of EOS owned by developerswhen you have EOS, it is equivalent to having computer resources. With the development of DAPP, you can lease your EOS to others. From this point alone, EOS has a wide range of value. In short, having EOS is equivalent to having a set of rent to collect rent for others, or having a piece of land to rent for others to build a house
then why should I say that lightning bitcoin is a great currency experiment? We compare lightning bitcoin to a free economy with three major stakeholders: developers, miners and holders
so far, no blockchain project can effectively govern the three. Why? The reason is very simple. In an ICO project, the developers, coin holders and even miners are the same group. It's easy to understand. Why should he give the best interests to the ICO holders? This is obviously not in line with human nature. The reason why lightning bitcoin dares to do chain governance is related to the issuing mode of lightning bitcoin. LBTC's "governance on the chain" is another attempt to "decentralize", which is also very eye-catching. Dpos mechanism determines that there are 101 nodes in the network. At the same time, unlike pow, the right of choice is in the hands of the coin holder. These nodes will be elected by the vote of the coin holder. When the node does not act, the user can vote out of the network. According to last week's weekly report, LBTC's block browser has also added this function, which can view the operation of nodes in real time. It also paves the way for LBTC's "chain governance". In the LBTC system, all coin holders can vote to decide whether the project development proposal will go or stay, and all members of the organization can participate in the decision-making and operation of the organization. In addition, the 5000 standard of lockup after the election of the lightning node ensures that the node is both a mine pool and a coin holder. In this way, the relationship among miners, developers and users is well balanced, and the foundation of an autonomous organization is formed.
on January 7, 2014, Taobao announced that it would ban the sale of Internet virtual currencies such as bitcoin and lightcoin from January 14. Democratic Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia. On February 26, 2014, an open letter was issued to a number of regulatory authorities of the federal government of the United States, hoping that relevant institutions would pay attention to the current situation of bitcoin encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and demanding that actions be taken as soon as possible to completely ban the electronic currency. On January 11, 2017), the Shanghai headquarters of the people's Bank of China and the Shanghai Municipal Finance Office carried out on-site inspection of bitcoin China, focusing on whether the enterprise carried out credit, payment, exchange and other related businesses without permission or license; Implementation of anti money laundering system; Fund security risks, etc. On January 12, 2017, the business management department of the people's Bank of China also entered the trading platforms such as "fire coin net" and "currency bank" in Beijing.
