[View] 2020 will become the currency and the encrypted block chain began operating a year do?

There is no doubt that 2019 is the year of enterprises to adopt block chain. With Microsoft, IBM, AWS, technology giants Oracle and other giants began to test the water, buzzwords block chain and encryption currency buzzing. Even in the field of encryption currency, JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Square, Circle and Skrill payment and other banking giant and the company decided to offer encryption in currency services also achieved growth.

However, in the past three years, the chain block and encrypt currency has become mainstream success, but still no one solution can be completely solved this emerging technology. As the saying goes: "block chain solutions to solve the problem."

The problem is that with this kind of operability and usability seriously fourth year of chasing technology, its financial branch, encryption currency began to disappear.

As the Verge of Adrienne Jeffries in an article entitled "meaningless block chain," the article explained it: "block chain of thinking, that is, through enhanced digital encryption ledger as Bitcoin currency and most encryption foundation, is now being used to describe the contents of all the inter-bank system. Wal-Mart's new deal to supply chain database. the word has become so widespread that it soon would be meaningless. "

Part of the problem is that, despite the block chain for more than ten years of history, but it is still a very young technology. Before trying to move forward and asked to solve the world's problems, it managed to make the world a small part of the population in trouble and meet their needs. Problems remain operational block chain; from scalability, speed and cost, as well as interoperability dispersed between private and public-chain / centralized battle.

Nevertheless, 2020 may be (or to be) a turning point in the industry, and there are signs that the company is seeking to make the technology serve them.

A square peg in a round hole?

Encryption has long been interested in the currency of Jack and Jack Dorsey (Jack Dorsey) leading financial technology company paid Square. They include it in their platform, and has been concerned about the use of niche markets, and secure the future of things. However, ironically, the support from the bitcoin payment services like a shop only accepts claims as a commodity, like gold.

出于某些原因，比特币已将其指定为价值存储。首先，在大多数情况下，它的价值一直处于上升趋势，因此不是人们想要的东西。其次，它根本不是一个好的付款工具，因为它不是即时的，并且具有可变的交易费用。

但是，多尔西（Dorsey）宣布，他的付款公司正在飞跃发展，希望通过建立在Lightning Network上，使比特币更易于用于付款。闪电网络是一种“第2层”支付协议，在基于区块链的加密货币（如比特币）之上运行。它实现了参与节点之间的快速交易，并被吹捧为解决比特币可扩展性问题的解决方案。

这确实将帮助加密货币变得更具操作性，对于Square这样的公司来说，它可以为其用户打开一些大门，这些用户可以利用比特币的去中心化全球网络。

壁橱里有更多的骨架

问题在于，闪电网络可能比比特币更粗糙，更萌芽，它仍在完善和发展中，并且离抛光产品还很远。因此，就运营意义上的加密货币使用解决方案而言，还需要其他快速解决方案。

在销售点使用比特币并不少见，事实上，由于另一家提供加密货币销售点的公司-Flexa，它可以在星巴克，全食超市，Nordstroms和其他主要零售商处消费。

但同样，此解决方案不仅依赖使比特币变得可消费，还需要大量购买来自商人的资金-这是《福布斯》概述的问题。但是，这不仅关系到比特币是一种可消费的资产，还关系到将其标准化和合法化，以至于公司不为此感到羞耻。

“问题在于，星巴克，以及现在接受加密货币作为支付手段的庞大企业集团中的每一个，似乎都难以承认自己的所作所为。当拍下交易收据的照片时，Winklevoss随行人员建议Cameron Winklevoss用拇指遮盖星巴克徽标。 “他们没有参加第一个公告，”她提醒卡梅伦。

再往南走一点，在委内瑞拉，还有一个大人物乐于接受比特币-但同样，它并不像仅仅依靠技术那样简单。由于加密公司Cryptobuyer，委内瑞拉的Burger King餐厅现在接受了加密货币。

汉堡王将在Sambil Caracas购物中心的场所试用该系统，并计划在2020年将该系统推广到该国所有40家餐厅。虽然听起来很有希望，但它仍然是“数字岛”的一个案例，因为由世界贸易组织创造。

成为数字岛是在区块链领域要考虑的一个重要因素，并且导致技术的另一个主要问题正在遍及全球的许多小岛-互操作性。

链接链

可以说，阻止区块链在全球范围内运作的主要问题之一是互操作性。在构建，试用和工作解决方案时，它们保持隔离和孤立-对于私有区块链（例如IBM的Hyperledger）尤其如此，它构成了主要公司区块链解决方案的很大一部分。实际上，《福布斯》“区块链50强”名单中有50％以上使用Hyperledger，但对于另一半，则无法将这些解决方案链接在一起。

甚至世界贸易组织（WTO）在题为“区块链能否彻底改变国际贸易”的论文中也强调了区块链技术发展过程中对互操作性的需求。

“因此，互操作性解决方案的开发对于避免不同方法之间的冲突以及确保区块链网络相互通信至关重要，从而使该技术能够发挥其全部潜力至关重要。区块链社区非常清楚所发挥的作用，并正在积极研究技术解决方案。” WTO解释道。

“尽管在一两年前，不同的区块链相互交互的想法似乎遥不可及，但具体的解决方案现在开始出现。”

WTO继续讨论自2018年以来出现的解决方案，例如企业以太坊联盟（Enterprise Ethereum Alliance），这是一个基于开源跨平台标准的框架，用于基于以太坊的许可区块链，该框架将允许互操作性

在以太坊公共区块链上建立的许可区块链之间。

更重要的是，WTO还提到，要实现真正的全球区块链系统，就必须实现互操作性-来年似乎不太可能-或至少在整个区块链之间架起桥梁。提到的最新桥接解决方案之一与Syscoin启动的桥接协议有关，该协议链接到以太坊（以太坊），这是周围最大的可用区块链之一。

Through the establishment of interoperable Square and Ethernet bridge, Syscoin demonstrated the potential of the operation with only two chains. By choosing Syscoin hope of Z-DAG (zero confirmed a directed acyclic graph) networking platform to increase the speed of transactions, so that the block chain with more business, then also benefit from the power of intelligent Ethernet Square contract.

For example, in today's encryption monetary field, USDT is one kind of stable currency pegged to the dollar, by a company called Tether reserve of assets under management, 50% of its trade accounts Square Ethernet network volume. If it is "outsourcing" you may be on a different chain, while maintaining its properties, then the benefits USDT Square and Ethernet networks will help make both more useful.

Once again, there is concern that a complete interoperability solution also take a few years, because people have seen this problem as early as 2017, it was resolved, because three blocks chain platform (Aion, ICON and Wanchain) behind the company announced the creation of a new advocacy organization, the block chain interoperability alliance. The alliance aims to develop globally accepted standards in order to promote greater connectivity and interoperability between different blocks chain network.

Do or die

Hit the panic button block chain may be premature, and then fell on the radar just an opportunity wasted, but cracks are showing.

In 2018, Cisco only a block chain of 18-month study realized they did not have near-term outlook in space, and closed the entire department.

The company plans to block chain, head Anoop Nanra told CNBC: "Many complex market participants take some time to keep pace."

Full adoption may be required to achieve this year is not the block chain and operational relevance, but if there is no breakthrough, then at the end you may be asked the next question of the technology.
