      I hate to disagree with a PhD but this technology is new so there is a lot of wires that can get crossed. But oracles are essentially reference points for the blockchain. A really cool way to use them is through smart contracts. They DON'T make changes to the blockchain.

    In response to 0:44 "The technology invented to power this new system, was called "blockchain" and Nakamoto's paper was its grand unveiling."
    The real innovation by Satoshi Nakamoto is not the blockchain, or the underlying cryptography functions, or the hash-based proof of work algorithm to incentivize nodes (miners) to join the network to validate transactions. All of these had been described in papers by past researchers.
    The real innovation lies in combining all of this research together and writing the initial open source code to create the world’s first currency and banking system that cuts out the middle men and government power over people.

    As I start to get ready to buy into BC, this video has been very helpful!
    But it left a lot out about things already starting to be implemented that have nothing to do with the internet. I read not long ago that Wart-Mart is moving to blockchaining all their suppliers. Cheap RFID's make this doable. So, if the CDC says we have a salmonella outbreak, the blockchain will enable WM and the CDC to perhaps identify the one farm where the bad spinach came from. Immediately.
    I'm an old guy, I built vacuum tube radios as a teenager. I mostly like technology. But in my lifetime, most things have been evolutionary. Blockchain has the potential to change the world as much as the printing press and the internet have.

    What if breakthroughs in the synthesis of nanotechnology and bioengineering and 3d printing etc. were to create the possibility of humanity finally being able to move beyond scarcity. In that scenario blockchain would just be another stopgap. Money and wealth and power based on those things would be revealed to be a 10,000 year old relic based on fear of famine. Part of a no longer relevant paradigm. We would need to create a philosophical infrastructure based on abundance instead. We would stand in the threshold of the real beginning of civilization ie The Star Trek paradigm.

      Some do predict something along those lines.

But currently we are still not very efficient consumers. Literally products are not made to last aka planned obsolescence.

      @AmunRa1 7 років тому +15

      I don't understand what you're getting at, Deckard. First of all, cryptocurrency forensics is not 'easy' like you say it is. It's incredibly costly and difficult unless someone uses the same address or sets of addresses for all their transactions. Since most people use a new address every transaction, tracking one address is pretty much useless. Even if you can figure out a way to guess a set of addresses that belongs to one person, you'd also have to figure out who is on the other side of the transaction. It's like if phone numbers changed after every call, and you figured out a set of numbers that all belonged to one guy, you'd still have no idea who they're calling.
      Basically, the only way to know for certain that a set of addresses all belongs to you is to get data stored on your computer, which is what happened to Ross Ulbricht, the guy who ran the Silk Road.
      Your story sounds like typical unfounded conspiracy theory to me. I'm going to take this with a huge grain of salt unless you have some sort of evidence to back that claim up. Also, I can't imagine a possible way in which Bitcoin could be un-decentralized just like that. Even if that did happen, that'd be the day everybody took their money out of Bitcoin and into any of the other hundreds of crypto-currencies on the market right now.

    • @AmunRa1
      @AmunRa1 7 років тому +14

      Talking in all caps doesn't make you more right, chill out. You're sounding like a Flat Earther right now.
      No, addresses are not "software" in the traditional sense, if that's what you're talking about. They're a string of up to 35 numbers and letters. For example, 19aVsXegUuPT5b2imrQ77XFsomLRziZ6Q5. I just made that using the website "bitaddress.org". You can actually create a bitcoin address completely offline. What you then use is a private key, generated at the same time, to authorize transactions with it. A private key is usually a 256-bit number, so they'd be incredibly hard to crack by brute force.
      As far as I know, there's nothing involved in the process of generating an address that contains any amount of personal information on your part. You could even do something like program a raspberry pi that's never been hooked up to the internet to generate them, transfer them to a .txt file, and then transfer them by thumbdrive, if you're particularly paranoid about your personal identity somehow being contained in your address. Kinda hard to track something that's never been online before. Also, since creating a new address is so easy, most people do it every transaction.
      As for bitcoin transactions, if you're talking about that... If someone sends you Bitcoin, you can't just look at the "from" portion of the transaction and see who it's from, because that's not part of the transaction. That's because it doesn't exist. Essentially, bitcoin is a system of receiving money, but not sending it. This also adds to the difficulty of tracking transactions. It's not impossible, but certainly not easy.
      As for the flat file... I mean, yeah, I'm sure that's already been done, too. However, that wouldn't actually give you any amount of control over anything. That'd just mean you'd be able to look through the transactions that have been made in Bitcoin. This information is already pretty much publically available, transferring it to a database doesn't really mean much. Essentially, you couldn't force the entire blockchain onto one computer, but copying the information on it to a database is possible.
      I can't help but feel you also overestimate the utility of cash. For one thing, being a fiat currency controlled by the government raises a few issues. Another thing is that while it's easy to go to your buddy and buy 50 bucks of "oregano" from him at the corner, the problem becomes exponentially more difficult when you want to buy five million in "powdered sugar" from your buddy at the dock. Now you're lugging around a big briefcase of cash, which anybody could grab and snag at any moment. No hacking necessary! Most transactions of that size will have middle-men, who will likely want a cut of the profits, too. Then there's the issue of how do you get that much cash in the first place if you didn't already have it. Do you withdraw it from a bank? Maybe you had to launder it, which is a whole 'nother complicated proccess?
      What if your buddy is in China? Well then you'll have to figure out how to transfer it overseas to him, likely smuggling it through customs of some sort. Now you've added logistics into your expenses as well. Not only that, but it is going to have to convert it to Renminbi now somewhere along the way, which is ALSO an added fee.
      There are certainly situations where cash will always be better, but cryptocurrencies fill in the gaps. Honestly, I think Bitcoin is the prototype. If it's ever mass adopted, it won't be Bitcoin, or at least not it in its current form. So if it was a plot to get us to all go cashless, I would consider it a failure.

    Pedantic point, Bitcoin cannot do 10 tps -- it can only do 7 tps and that's only the max theoretical throughput under most ideal conditions. In real world usage Bitcoin throughput is closer to 3 tps because of more complex transactions on the network.

    09:47 Example: Used Tesla Model 3 purchase.
    It was quickly mentioned that "the car will be uploaded to the blockchain" as if that is a simple process. Consider what that means.
    STEP 1: Someone with legal authority, a third party, must first validate the mileage, current condition, accident history, ownership, unique identifier (VIN#), and everything else a buyer would want to know BEFORE purchasing it. No different than before the blockchain. All that external information, gathered by a legal authority, must be gathered, or at least validated, then entered into the blockchain. (Even if the original owner entered that information, someone else must validated it by comparing the actual car to the information entered.)
    STEP 2: The buyer and seller agree on a price in dollars or a cryptocurrency and a smart contract logs the exchange.
    STEP 3: Later, before that Tesla can be transferred to a third person, process #1 must be repeated. The current condition of the previously purchased Tesla must be updated to reflect changes in mileage, accident history, tire condition, software version, etc.
    This blockchain initialization and update process would be similar for land, houses, boats, planes, or any other properties. In summary, initializing and updating a property's description in the blockchain requires a third party to validate it to minimize, but not eliminate, fraud. If there is a dispute over the condition of the property transferred, the courts must resolve it. The blockchain reduces intermediary's but doesn't eliminate them. Courts to resolve disputes and notaries to validate the new and updated property information in the blockchain must still exist.
    I suspect legal academics and practitioners are looking into this now.

      It doesn't work like that. The people who "mine" the currencies are the people keeping track of everything that happens in the blockchain. If somebody tries to move money to account where it doesn't belong, the majority of the network doesn't agree and the transaction will not happen.
      As far as I know, the only way to break the system is by controlling 51% or more of the whole processing power of the network so you can confirm your fake transactions with majority of the "votes". This would not only be ridiculously expensive, but it would also be extremely complicated to achieve.
      The amount of electricity needed to get there alone would be expensive even for government scaled budgets, as the current power used by the whole Bitcoin network is equal to almost 5 of the most powerful nuclear power plants in the world. So yeah, you would need 5 of those to start off, then you would need to produce all the mining hardware to do the actual mining. The scale of this is just ridiculous, it's really not achievable by any single organisation.
      Besides, it would never pay itself back, because the moment you break the system Bitcoins become worthless.

    • @travz21
      @travz21 6 років тому +1

      Hacking the blockchain is impossible. Like Phazon said, as soon as you break the system the coin becomes worthless.

    Blockchain should be used to replace a lot of centralized data. So like social security and identity info. You could have a registry blockchain for individual owner blockchains to join. This would record all individual owners... Replacing the social security system for id and all it is used for. As an individual chain owner, you would be an oracle over certain property types of information (like gender, location, age, whatever is personal), and locked down for the impersonal items. Those are the only properties to your id blockchain that the registry cares about (or should). Then you could have various registry blockchains to register your individual chain to. Allowing you to share whatever specific items from your chain with the new registry. These registries can be the various markets/areas of interest a company could be. Like advertising companies. Or youtube. Or anything where personal information is used. However, this would enable individuals control and potentially contractual activity for data from their chain. Like assigning royalty payouts to say, location data. This way if a registry wants your location data, the registry has to give you something in return.

      No. Bitcoin for example one costs $1,000 to produce in electricity and effort. That's why they call it proof of work (pow). Fiat banking credits and cash are created at the flick of a button by the FED. Essentially stealing our existing money's purchasing power. Our Fiat money loses 50% of it's purchasing power every 8-10 years. This theft and transfer of wealth is a hidden tax called inflation. And it's not 2% as we a re lead to believe. Bitcoin is a open distributed (trust-less) ledger of who owes who and who owns what, that has had 100% up-time and never been hacked. You know the US has 20 Trillion dollars worth of debt right? Well this changes the outcome for future generations because you can't lie and cheat. And countries will create and issue their own currencies for all public works and not go into debt to do it. Oh yeah... less war too. Not a bad outcome.

    Stay strong in your convictions, but yes be open to other people's ideas, philosophy and prism thoughts. Thank you for your videos!! Your videos are the "jump off" and all of us should do our due diligence to verify and expand on the subject.

    Of course that blockchain is theme of great matter. Everything will change with use of blockchain, guys are making great and complicated projects based on this, which will change our everyday life. I saw for example ContractVault project, they are making smart contracts and so, so they are practically becoming public notaries, as I see that. That's revolution in legal system, and there are also a lot of other projects which will make revolution in every part of our life

    I resonate with the comments below, you are very talented and your audience really appreciates you. I am just starting educating myself about finance matters, never really having to deal with it before my IRA account started to drop in value (so fast). In any case, thank you, this Blockchain episode was very informative and inspiring.

    Cold Fusion, could you make a video of why we still cannot use Crypto Currencies anywhere? Why cant we shop online with it? Buy plane tickets, hotel rooms, go grocery shopping. When will that happen? I got BTC for the purpose of using it as a method of payment, not just "yet another speculation currency". So why cant we use it yet? And when will this change?

    I am thrilled with the possibility of turning government into DAOs, especially because I am from Brazil, and here politicians are very corrupt and government administration is very inefficient. A machine-state running on a blockchain would also have no prejudices towards any group.
