Book Description
IOTA - why is this crypto-currency different? IOTA is a crypto-currency which emerged in late 2015, and it aims to tackle Blockchain's main problems. Blockchain technologies like Bitcoin suffer from various systemic problems, such as network congestion. In short, they cannot expand further and won't be able to process more transaction than the current limit of seven per second. IOTA addresses these issues and offers an entirely new technology, which is still decentralized but can process an inifinite amount of transactions as well. This technology is called Tangle. The tangle is another kind of database in which participants have to confirm two other transactions if they themself want to execute one. With this algorithm, IOTA can theoretically process an infinite amout of transactions and grows its network strength if more participants join. This is, where the Internet of Things comes in: the term describes a vision of devices with sensors and information, which interact with each other directly and form a new Internet. What would happen if intelligent cars would receive warnings from smart sensors in the streets? What if the smart home would be receiving information so that it is fully automated and heated or cooled in the cheapest way possible? To connect the mass of intelligent devices and enable communication amongst them, another Internet is necessary. IOTA enables exactly this. IOTA is still a relatively new technology, and not much information is available online, aside from blog posts, forum comments and random tweets. The following questions might occur when trying to find out more about IOTA: What are IOTAs strengths? How will it work with the Internet of Things? How does IOTA as a coin work? How to purchase IOTA? What to contemplate when investing in IOTA? For what use cases can IOTA be used? How will IOTA develop in the next time? This book will answer these questions. It will even give some programming examples as well as insights on IOTA's tangle technology - a technology that is entirely new. You can find out more by checking out the preview (10 pages). The book's content are the following: Introduction Iota - Basics Chapter Iota And The Blockchain Chapter Iota's Technology Chapter How To Buy Iota Chapter Investing In Iota Chapter Security Procedures IOTA In Use: Details, Fundamentals And Use Cases Chapter 6: The Idea Behind Iota Chapter 7: Programming Iota Chapter 8: Iota Use Cases Chapter 9: Frequently Asked Questions Chapter 10: Milestones And The Future

ISBN: 9789287047618
Category : Blockchains (Databases)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Trade has always been shaped by technological innovation. In recent times, a new technology, Blockchain, has been greeted by many as the next big game-changer. Can Blockchain revolutionize international trade? This publication seeks to demystify the Blockchain phenomenon by providing a basic explanation of the technology. It analyses the relevance of this technology for international trade by reviewing how it is currently used or can be used in the various areas covered by WTO rules. In doing so, it provides an insight into the extent to which this technology could affect cross-border trade in goods and services, and intellectual property rights. It discusses the potential of Blockchain for reducing trade costs and enhancing supply chain transparency as well as the opportunities it provides for small-scale producers and companies. Finally, it reviews various challenges that must be addressed before the technology can be used on a wide scale and have a significant impact on international trade.

Blockchain and Crypto Currency
Author: Makoto Yano
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811533768
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
This open access book contributes to the creation of a cyber ecosystem supported by blockchain technology in which technology and people can coexist in harmony. Blockchains have shown that trusted records, or ledgers, of permanent data can be stored on the Internet in a decentralized manner. The decentralization of the recording process is expected to significantly economize the cost of transactions. Creating a ledger on data, a blockchain makes it possible to designate the owner of each piece of data, to trade data pieces, and to market them. This book examines the formation of markets for various types of data from the theory of market quality proposed and developed by M. Yano. Blockchains are expected to give data itself the status of a new production factor. Bringing ownership of data to the hands of data producers, blockchains can reduce the possibility of information leakage, enhance the sharing and use of IoT data, and prevent data monopoly and misuse. The industry will have a bright future as soon as better technology is developed and when a healthy infrastructure is created to support the blockchain market.

The Organisation of Tomorrow
Author: Mark Van Rijmenam
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000007677
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
The Organisation of Tomorrow presents a new model of doing business and explains how big data analytics, blockchain and artificial intelligence force us to rethink existing business models and develop organisations that will be ready for human-machine interactions. It also asks us to consider the impacts of these emerging information technologies on people and society. Big data analytics empowers consumers and employees. This can result in an open strategy and a better understanding of the changing environment. Blockchain enables peer-to-peer collaboration and trustless interactions governed by cryptography and smart contracts. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence allows for new and different levels of intensity and involvement among human and artificial actors. With that, new modes of organising are emerging: where technology facilitates collaboration between stakeholders; and where human-to-human interactions are increasingly replaced with human-to-machine and even machine-to-machine interactions. This book offers dozens of examples of industry leaders such as Walmart, Telstra, Alibaba, Microsoft and T-Mobile, before presenting the D2 + A2 model – a new model to help organisations datafy their business, distribute their data, analyse it for insights and automate processes and customer touchpoints to be ready for the data-driven and exponentially-changing society that is upon us This book offers governments, professional services, manufacturing, finance, retail and other industries a clear approach for how to develop products and services that are ready for the twenty-first century. It is a must-read for every organisation that wants to remain competitive in our fast-changing world.

Regulating Blockchain
Author: Philipp Hacker
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192579509
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 612
Book Description
Less than a decade after the Financial Crisis, we are witnessing the fast emergence of a new financial order driven by three different, yet interconnected, dynamics: first, the rapid application of technology - such as big data, machine learning, and distributed computing - to banking, lending, and investing, in particular with the emergence of virtual currencies and digital finance; second, a disintermediation fuelled by the rise of peer-to-peer lending platforms and crowd investment which challenge the traditional banking model and may, over time, lead to a transformation of the way both retail and corporate customers bank; and, third, a tendency of de-bureaucratisation under which new platforms and technologies challenge established organisational patterns that regulate finance and manage the money supply. These changes are to a significant degree driven by the development of blockchain technology. The aim of this book is to understand the technological and business potential of the blockchain technology and to reflect on its legal challenges. The book mainly focuses on the challenges blockchain technology has so far faced in its first application in the areas of virtual money and finance, as well as those that it will inevitably face (and is partially already facing, as the SEC Investigative Report of June 2017 and an ongoing SEC securities fraud investigation show) as its domain of application expands in other fields of economic activity such as smart contracts and initial coin offerings. The book provides an unparalleled critical analysis of the disruptive potential of this technology for the economy and the legal system and contributes to current thinking on the role of law in harvesting and shaping innovation.
