On May 27th, at the Global Forum on the Quarterly Chain Technology Development Forum of 2017, the "Global Chain Chain Technology Development Forum" project was officially launched. The China Information and Communication Research Institute and the People's Government of Guiyang signed a cooperation agreement, Vitalik Buterin, founder of Ethernet, signed a memorandum of cooperation with the China Information and Communication Research Institute.
It is understood that, in order to build a platform for the development of global chain-chain technology development, focusing on the key technical issues in the development of block chain, China Information and Communication Research Institute organized the "Global Chain Chain Technology Development Forum" project, International influence of the block chain technology exchange platform.
The forum uphold the professional, international, practical principles, will focus on the development of technology, so that more of the chain of chain technology companies to actively participate in the background. At the same time, the organizers of the early and from China, Britain, the United States and other domestic and foreign experts and scholars, and related institutions to conduct in-depth communication and coordination, and promote the international development of the forum.
In addition, the forum will actively promote the practice, to attract more young and outstanding entrepreneurs, engineers, etc. to promote the development of block chain. At present, the forum has been the quantum chain foundation and other 50 global block chain enterprise support, the next step will launch the operating mechanism as soon as possible to promote the global block chain technology exchange integration and development.
2017 Global Chain Chain Technology Development Forum -
Establishment of open source eco - ring power block technology development
"Block chain technology is open, credible, transparent, can not be tampered with, block chain will change our lives. There must be some relevant support mechanism, the establishment of an open source ecological environment, so that everyone involved "On May 27th, at 2017, the global chain of chain technology development forum, from the domestic and international chain of experts and experts in the field of industry, the industry chain, On the global block chain technology status, the development trend of the chain chain, such as a warm discussion and dialogue, and reached the above agreement.
Quantum chain senior engineer Xu Xiaolong that the block chain from the birth is a technology with open source gene. Block chain is a trusted to the center of the technology, "trusted" "to the center" of these two keywords are actually dependent on the way open source. "If the code is open source, we can work together to maintain the project." If the code belongs to a company, the company can control the software, but if it is open source, we can work together to maintain the project. Is a way to retreat, it seems that you put their own technology are open to others, but in fact you may gain more. "Xu Xiaolong said.
Consensys director Brent Xu suggested that open source is the right model for developing block chains. He used the ether square for example, there are many different categories are using tokens technology, individuals can participate in this environment, access to different forms of block chain. This platform brings more opportunities to achieve decentralization. All coders are no longer limited to one vendor, and they participate in development and access in different ways. "This new infrastructure is the way we run the etherflies, and we want everyone to work together to create a different dynamic and achieve better economic growth," says Brent Xu.
Julian Gordon, vice president of Asia Pacific, said Superbook itself is an open source community, an open source project that advances block technology across banking, retail, supply chain, healthcare and manufacturing industries. "Superbook is a leader in the global chain of chain communities, and we hope that more developers will join our community and continue to grow in open source communities, and that real development should come from the common wisdom of global developers Collection, "Julian Gordon said.
China Information and Communication Research Institute of Technology and Standards Institute He Baohao, deputy director of the proposed open source has now become the driving force of innovation in the industry, block chain technology open source to provide a win-win situation. "This is the industry to maximize the benefits of the win-win situation, the need to establish standards as soon as possible, to speed up the standardization of the construction of a reliable chain, reduce costs and help the healthy development of block chain." He Baohong said.
PricewaterhouseCoopers risk and control services partner Ji Ruihua that the core of the chain chain, including distributed database, encryption algorithm, which is essentially a technology integration, a business model of refining and upgrading. In the open source environment, the block chain technology to develop more. "For example, a codec, the technical contribution to open to everyone, we put this technology development, mutual learning, communication, in order to truly share the benefits of the block chain." Ji Ruihua said, to build an open source ecosphere, the value Is not in the sale of software and so on, but on the basis of the basic core to increase the value of the chain to protect the chain to ensure that it really generate more value for the enterprise.
IBM's standards and open source technology director Cheng Haixu also said that if the Internet has changed the way to exchange information, the block chain will change the exchange value. Block chains should not be invested and controlled by an investment, but should be open, so that the whole community to participate, benefit, open source to give more choices. From the ecological point of view, the block chain technology after the open source, everyone together to the "cake" bigger, and then share the results together.
