Alibaba Tencent virtual currency
in 2013, China's central bank and other five ministries and commissions issued bitcoin risk notice, which clearly defined bitcoin as a special Internet commodity. People can buy and sell bitcoin freely at their own risk. At present, financial institutions are not allowed to carry out bitcoin related business
at present, the more popular virtual currencies are bitcoin, Laite coin, Fuyuan coin and doggy coin.
big companies like Alibaba also disdain to cooperate with such small companies. Moreover, there are no major news media reports, which is also unreasonable.
bitcoin price has been cut by the waist
how to implement blockchain application is still the main problem. In addition to bitcoin, the large-scale application of blockchain in other scenarios has not yet reached the commercial stage. Looking back to the second half of 2017, the price of bitcoin almost reached a new high every day, and finally reached the peak in the South Korean exchange with the highest premium in the world - about 140000 yuan per piece. On June 3, 2018, as of press time, coinbase bitcoin trading platform quoted 49688 yuan, and the price of bitcoin has been cut. Since the beginning of this year, the price of bitcoin has rarely seen eye popping ups and downs, and the overall trend of monthly decline
bitcoin development status
according to the data of the in-depth analysis report on business model innovation and investment opportunities of the blockchain instry released by the foresight Instry Research Institute, bitcoin prices showed a downward trend in May, with the overall market value falling from US $157.3 billion at the beginning of the month to US $127.4 billion at the end of the month, a decrease of 19%; In addition, there are 444000 active addresses and 197000 transfers per day. From the trend point of view, the number of active addresses and daily transfers are positively correlated with the transaction price. In May, the overall trend is volatile, and the downward trend is very obvious
reasons for the steady decline of bitcoin in the past half year
how to understand the "steady decline" of bitcoin in the past half year? There are two main reasons: firstly, the most important reason is that institutional investors and speculators who have accumulated a large number of "profit" are cashing in their profits and leaving the market; Secondly, before the blockchain instry has no real application and profit model, the rise of bitcoin price can only be regarded as speculative speculation. In addition, it is an undeniable fact that the Central Bank of China has made a decisive move to close the bitcoin trading platform, which has achieved remarkable results in preventing bitcoin speculation
at present, the domestic bitcoin exchanges have basically moved to foreign countries, which has nothing to do with China. Investors operate on those platforms at their own risk
the current market is not very good. Only when the market is good, can investors find ways to participate in bitcoin investment. As the total market value of the coin circle is still small, with more blockchain applications, there is still potential in the future
over consumed blockchain
e to the "tepid" price of bitcoin, blockchain, as its underlying technology, has reached the level of "known to all women and children", and even surpassed bitcoin in recent years
recently, a series of related reports are suspected of making up for the number and full of hype, and blockchain has obviously been over consumed. In addition to bitcoin, the large-scale application of blockchain in other scenarios has not yet reached the commercial stage
with the graal deepening of the understanding of blockchain technology, domestic enterprises have laid out blockchain technology, platforms and applications, including Internet enterprises such as network, Tencent, Ali, Jingdong, Netease, major banks, financial enterprises such as Ping An of China and Huawei. In terms of application, China actively explores and promotes blockchain + applications in the form of alliance chain and private chain to help solve the pain points of related instries, improve efficiency and rece costs.
in the past two years, the word blockchain is very popular, and blockchain e-commerce will undoubtedly be the biggest wind outlet in the next decade. However, the instry is in chaos. Many people think that blockchain is money and have many misunderstandings about blockchain. So before we talk about blockchain, we should first talk about the idea of blockchain
blockchain is now understood by most people as "currency". There are too many coin cards in the coin circle, bitcoin and bitcoin. In fact, blockchain has nothing to do with currency. It is a technology, a business ecology and an idea. It is mainly applied in every field. It is extremely similar to the Internet. Talking about blockchain now is like the Internet 20 years ago. What did we talk about the Internet 20 years ago? When talking about its technical architecture, operating system, language, server and so on, it was said at that time that Internet e-commerce was deceptive, because many people had not been exposed to this aspect. In fact, many people have misunderstood blockchain, especially after being confused by the currency circle
When did jiuzero blockchain start? Jiuling started to investigate and prepare from 2016, and has about half a year to investigate all aspects of the blockchain. In 2017, it began to enter the field of blockchain. By 2020, it will be the fifth year. It has gained a lot of experience and achieved a lot in application. We've never played with coins, never engaged in ICO. In the first few years, we didn't make a lot of noise, that is, we should do a good job in technology, platform and browser, and apply them in traceability. We have done a good job in the application of traceability since 2017, and many procts have been launched; In 2018, more than 10000 procts will be applied in traceability. In 2019, it will be further promoted. This year, it will be further developed, and all procts will be opened up in the whole process of visualization. So at the beginning, we used it in the field of traceability. Since 2018, we have used it in the whole blockchain ecology, including blockchain traceability, blockchain invoice, sharing economy, supply chain finance, general points and other applications, as well as the platform technology services we built. We have entered this field in an all-round way, And relatively speaking, it is relatively mature and completely implemented
What's more, why is blockchain on fire now? Why does the development of blockchain reach the height of "thinking"? This is in line with the trend of the times
let's review the history of China's economic development in recent decades. The wealth of Chiang Kai Shek's time was concentrated on the local tyrants, evil gentry and warlords. Mao Zedong liberated most of the common people as peasants, and United most of them was more suitable for the situation of China at that time. Therefore, he defeated Chiang Kai Shek, overthrew the bureaucracy of the local tyrants, evil gentry and warlords, redistributed their wealth, developed the proctive forces again, and completely redistributed their revolution and distribution, Mao Zedong really realized serving the people and let the people live a good life. In the era of large collectives, people go to work in the countryside to earn points. According to the points you earn, how much food can you get. In Deng Xiaoping's time, I felt that this was not right. It might be that the efficiency was not high, and I ate a big pot of rice. Later, I started the reform and opening up. After the reform and opening up, the fields were divided into households according to the number of people. After that, the output increased a lot, which stimulated everyone's enthusiasm, increased the output and improved the efficiency. After the reform and opening up, commercial instrial enterprises began to develop
we can see that economic development is based on the needs of the times. China's reform and opening up has gone for decades, from the traditional economic era to the E-commerce Internet economy, and now the blockchain has come out, also because of the new problems of wealth distribution in the Internet era
in the Internet era, social wealth is highly concentrated on several platforms, such as Alibaba, Tencent, Internet, Jingdong, etc. the Internet e-commerce leaders have too strong a say in finance, resources, procts and other aspects. Social development has completely lost its balance. The uneven distribution of wealth has made the rich richer and the poor poorer. The instrial enterprises without money, including the whole of China, are now difficult to survive except for the monopolized central enterprises. At this time, there needs to be another revolution in business. The proctive forces must be redistributed and readjusted. It happens that blockchain is born to meet the needs of the era of transportation
the rules and mechanisms of blockchain are completely open and fair, can not be tampered with, and can not be decentralized. The oligarchs of institutions are removed to form a sharing economy for common development. Why does the government support blockchain so much? Because the government can fully enter the field of blockchain for supervision, and the privacy of citizens can be protected. Personal information in the Internet is not protected, and personal information in the blockchain is in their own hands. In the era of Internet e-commerce, oligarchs monopolize information resources. There are too many fake and shoddy procts and too many false information, so we have no way to distinguish them
at this time, the rule mechanism of decentralized supervision of blockchain emerges as the times require. Blockchain is not only a technology (it has made some improvement and promotion in the original Internet technology), but more importantly, it can solve the problems that cannot be solved by the Internet, traditional e-commerce and traditional ecology, such as traceability. Traceability in the Internet age can be falsified. A traceability source can be pasted anywhere, but the traceability of blockchain is different. The technology of blockchain is real. Everyone can participate together. Through distributed storage, everyone can get the data, and then all things can be traced, including procts and invoices, Including a person to send a message can be traced, stored, fidelity
the traceability of blockchain starts with raw materials, then proction and processing, then warehousing, sales, etc. every link should be visualized, with pictures, videos and words, which will leave traces of every link. Only in this way can we make everyone trust completely and be fair, open and transparent when there are too many fake and shoddy procts and lack of trust. In short, blockchain is to solve the problem that the Internet can not solve
when it comes to blockchain, bitcoin is the first thing that many people think of. In fact, bitcoin's contribution to the world is to put forward a rule and mechanism. Bitcoin itself has no value. It has no proct and no support. But its technology and concept are very good, because this technology can't be fake. The source code of this technology is open source and can be shared. Its technology uses the idea of blockchain
as soon as the rules and mechanisms of blockchain come out, they are sought after by everyone. However, in recent years, they have been confused by money. That kind of money is deceptive and runs counter to blockchain. On the contrary, it makes people distrust blockchain because they don't know enough about blockchain and think blockchain is money. Because if you want to understand a field, just like jiuzero blockchain has entered its fifth year, you are engaged in blockchain ecology, blockchain traceability, blockchain digital integration, blockchain technology development, blockchain browser development and so on every day. In this field, you are still learning constantly, because it is not easy to learn a field thoroughly. The reason why we have been very motivated in the past few years is because we know that it is a big trend and coming. Just like the Internet 20 years ago, many people don't believe, understand and turn a deaf ear to it. But ten years ago, Tencent, Alibaba, Huawei and other big enterprises got up. At the same time, now this opportunity is in front of us. Can we seize it? This is a question worth thinking about
finally, let's make it clear that blockchain has nothing to do with currency
for regular blockchain enterprises, the government has requirements and certification standards
standards: three basic requirements (patent, soft work, registered company in national blockchain Park, paid in registered capital, dedicated blockchain R & D funds), four landing application standards (blockchain browser, website, blockchain application scenarios, blockchain procts), five kinds of blockchain professionals (blockchain finance professionals, Blockchain digital professionals, blockchain credit management professionals, blockchain software development professionals, blockchain encryption technology professionals, and employees with bachelor degree or above who have been employed for more than one year) can get six basic subsidies
in the blockchain instry, there are at least tens of thousands of companies doing money and ICU. They all say that they are regular, but can they take out these certificates. The document points out that as long as the company has digital currency or ICO, it is not a blockchain company
under the background of this era, the ideas, rules and mechanisms, decentralized supervision and privacy distribution of blockchain can protect everyone's interests, redistribute proctivity assets, prevent the interests from being too concentrated on certain oligarchs and institutions, let everyone participate together, and let everyone exert their energy together to fight against counterfeiting, tax evasion, tax evasion, tax evasion, etc The real purpose of blockchain is to crack down on false transactions and create a conscientious ecosystem that can protect the interests of the people and provide hematopoietic function.
