From June 29th to 30th, the World Blockchain Conference was held in Wuzhen. The conference aims to popularize blockchain technology, break the cross-border gap and promote the healthy and rational development of blockchain industry in Zhejiang and even the whole country.
In February this year, Hangzhou became the first city in China to write the “blockchain” into the government work report. With the first blockchain industrial park in China settled in Xixi Valley Internet Finance Town, a number of outstanding enterprises such as Ant Financial and Fun Chain have deepened their exploration of blockchain, as well as the integration of blockchain technology in the fields of finance, logistics and government affairs. The face of blockchain development is becoming increasingly clear.
“With the wide application of blockchain technology, a large number of new business models will emerge, creating new opportunities for innovation. The blockchain technology can only demonstrate its intrinsic value if it is deeply integrated with the real economy and finds the right industrial scene. ” Jin Xuejun, president of Zhejiang Blockchain Association, told reporters that in order to realize the application of blockchain technology in economic and social development, it is necessary to meet the two major elements of technology and application ecology at the same time. It happens that Zhejiang is at the forefront in these two aspects.
“Promoting the development of blockchain technology is also in line with regulatory needs.” Zhang Yifeng, president of China Banknote Blockchain Technology Research Institute, questioned the safety and supervision of blockchain technology. He said that blockchain practitioners should consider and overcome these problems more. At the same time, Zhang Yifeng also pointed out that although the blockchain technology still has problems such as scalability, privacy and security, the existing applications have proved the value of the blockchain, and the authenticity and efficiency of the blockchain can solve many pain points in economic and social development, and the application needs in political, commercial and civil fields are great.
