- Decentralization is necessary?
I had not talked block chain of foreign matter, and rarely communicate with coins ring or chain rings.
A possible today to make a down, I did not come "BACK OFF" in.
This speech, I took a heading called "block chain and the Old World." See discussion in the morning, there are some places I feel very split. For example we discussed, the block chain with respect to the development of the Internet which year?
Talked about the beginning of 1997, 1998, and later pushed to 1992, 1993; 1992, 1993, for the first time foam and eight years away from the Internet, and Bitcoin from 2009 to the present time is 9 years , I do not know what we were talking about.
On the one hand I am looking forward to our discussions, running up from Bitcoin to now, 18 years bitcoin not seem to find the feeling, there is some problem.
On the other hand, we are now including the mobile Internet, including search dogs, and previous Internet collectively referred to as classical Internet, I represent the old world view now block chain conflict with the world, and why there is this conflict.
I prefer rational thinking. Rational thinking is not a philosophy, philosophy makes blood boil, I would like to say what combination of technology and reasoning.
For block chain, our previous study Mangrenmoxiang. Some people talk about technology, some on business, some people talk about ideas. But really want to see the complete block chain, need to cross the technical, commercial, and political system or political events, to be unified point of view.
We can bitcoins, Ethernet Square or other items into it to see the logic of this system.
I believe the following sentence is more agreeable to everyone: Whether seen in the underlying technology, business applications, social or governance, we regard it the center of the consensus mechanism to go, and the establishment of incentives on the basis of consensus.
So, there is a clear rationale for everyone interested in it where the point? I saw not a mechanism for consensus when we talked about ICO, more interested, but huge incentive. This incentive is the same as the equity to the company, people involved in a virtual bubble-like, on behalf of the future value of things.
There is, if not a consensus, I think it is standing on the beach. When we talk block chain, we need to talk about anything other than incentives, first talk with the traditional centralized in the end what is the difference?
Because the center of the place there are deficiencies, we can talk about the new system back. Otherwise, the center of the same incentive problems can be solved, but we trust is not enough. So we have to look block chain if the trust was higher than that of the center.
Center of what is the problem?
In the underlying technical level, the central problem is not great.
When I graduate, high performance computing laboratory at Tsinghua University, had just mentioned a word called decentralized that there is a very low center node would computational efficiency. I was also this very question, and later found in the center of the technical problem is not big.
In the business application level, to the center of governance is more of a concern.
We talk about philosophy, can be thought very far, but we do products, we need to know what the real problem, something new can solve this problem.
Now, in the center of the commercial issues there are three, one is transaction costs, if a third party to charge you a lot of money how to do? First, data leaks; and finally the data tampering.
For me, the question is more our concern will not necessarily happen. If the center of your face is Tencent, it is a sovereign country, a lot of this problem will be resolved.
When we talk block chain, we are able to correct the problem, and the middle (between the center and to the center) if there is 10-fold, 100-fold significance? You need to be considered.
In social governance, rule management level, need to think about.
After centralization, we will become the control center node in the rules, which is something we are particularly vulnerable to opposition, especially the emphasis on freedom of Western thought likely to oppose something. Once third-party involvement, naturally produce an emotional confrontation.
But the formation of the country, the formation of social point of view, the right to hand over part of his own, so that a force, organizations, and government representatives to exercise their rights, it is impossible to go around from the large logic.
Here, we need to think about the existing problems can be solved block chain. Details exchange, please add the author!
