中国产业区块链加速发展: 起因、问题与展望

"Industrial blockchain" has recently become popular. Tencent Research Institute has released an industry white paper focusing on industrial blockchain, and CITIC Securities has published a research report on industrial blockchain. 31 provinces in China have successively issued policies to promote the development of blockchain industry. On October 24, the favorable policy news on blockchain was announced, and the media has been continuously reporting on the topic of industrial blockchain.

While blockchain technology remains popular, where does the concept of industrial blockchain come from? What are the challenges in implementing it? And what are the future development trends? The Allicance for Computing Intelligence (ACI) analyzes the industrial blockchain from the perspectives of investors, technology providers, and businesses, providing a comprehensive understanding of its applications and challenges.

1. Finance + blockchain takes the lead in implementation and reshapes the industry The concept of industrial blockchain was first popularized two years ago. After the regulatory storm in 2017, the blockchain industry divided into two groups, commonly known as the "crypto circle" and "chain circle." In the "chain circle," there were technology providers that used blockchain technology to empower industries, while traditional industries also had companies either building their own blockchain-based information systems or outsourcing them. The concept of industrial blockchain emerged from the merger of these two players.

Unfortunately, after experiencing a bubble in 2018, the blockchain industry faced a capital withdrawal, which temporarily hindered the implementation of blockchain technology in industries.

However, the major internet technology giants, BAT (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent), have all made attempts in the field of blockchain technology. Ant Financial established a blockchain team in 2016, while Tencent and Baidu started exploring blockchain and formed their own teams in 2015.

At the same time, a group of blockchain technology providers, mainly focusing on providing blockchain services, emerged. Many of the industry pioneers that are now active in the public eye, such as Yunxiang, Qulian, Zhongxiang Bit, and Bubi, were established between 2014 and 2016.

According to the ACI, one of the earliest teams involved in providing industrial blockchain technology services in China was Yunxiang, which is also one of the companies with the most implementations in the field of industrial blockchain. It was founded by Dr. Huang Butian, a computer science Ph.D. from Zhejiang University, in 2014. At that time, it was less than a year after Ethereum implemented smart contract technology to complete the blockchain technology puzzle.

In the early years, practitioners often faced difficulties in introducing blockchain technology due
