An Introduction to Blockchain Technology Niuversity
Blockchain technology allows for a shared, replicated ledger of transactions that can be viewed by all participants. It enables peer-to-peer exchanges on a distributed network in a secure and non-repudiable way. Blockchain solves issues with monitoring asset ownership and transfers in a trusted business network by providing a permissioned, replicated shared ledger. It is not just for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin but can be used for any form of asset registry, inventory, and exchange across different industries. The future potential of blockchain applications is still emerging as it will be applied experimentally to many aspects of society over the next few years.
Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and decentralized payment system that was created in 2009 by an unknown person under the name Satoshi Nakamoto. Transactions occur directly between users without an intermediary and are recorded on a public distributed ledger called the blockchain. New bitcoins are generated by miners who verify transactions and are rewarded with new bitcoins. The blockchain records all transactions and grows continuously as new blocks are added, allowing anyone to trace transactions back to the original creation of bitcoins.
This document provides an introduction to blockchain technology. It defines blockchain as a distributed ledger of transactions stored in immutable blocks chained together using cryptography. It explains key concepts such as nodes, blocks, hashes, mining, and proof-of-work. Blockchain allows for trustless transactions without intermediaries by achieving consensus among peers on the network. Examples of blockchain networks and potential use cases are also discussed.
This document provides an overview of blockchain technology. It discusses that blockchain was first introduced in 2008 as a way to facilitate digital transactions without a central authority. Blockchain uses cryptography, a digital ledger, and a consensus mechanism to securely record transactions. The blockchain is made up of blocks that contain cryptographic hashes linking them together. Miners use proof-of-work to verify transactions and are rewarded with cryptocurrency. Once recorded, transactions cannot be altered, providing transparency and security.

Blockchain is a distributed ledger that operates on consensus among parties who have access to validate transactions that are recorded in blocks and added to a chain, preventing changes once created. It could be used for banking, markets, healthcare, smart contracts, and property records. Fog computing distributes computing resources closer to where data is created and needed, keeping sensitive data local to reduce latency and bandwidth usage while still enabling real-time analytics. Both technologies face challenges around their newness, integration, security, and cultural adoption that must be addressed for their benefits of transparency, trust, and efficiency to be fully realized.
Blockchain is a distributed digital ledger that records transactions in blocks that are linked using cryptography. It allows transactions to be recorded and distributed but not altered, making it possible for users to establish trust without the need for a central authority. Potential applications include digital identity, tracking supply chains, and facilitating peer-to-peer payments without intermediaries. While businesses are beginning to pilot uses of blockchain, widespread adoption will require addressing issues like scalability and determining how it can transform existing processes.
This document provides an introduction to blockchain technology. It discusses the history of blockchain, which began with Bitcoin in 2009. Blockchain consists of a series of linked blocks containing transaction summaries secured using cryptography. Transactions are validated by nodes in a peer-to-peer network before being recorded in a new block added to the blockchain. Current applications include cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, smart contracts, and distributed data storage. Advantages include security, transparency and decentralization, while disadvantages include volatility and implementation challenges. The future scope of blockchain is presented as significant for benefiting society through applications like identity management and data marketplaces.
Blockchain is a specific type of database where information is collected in blocks that are chained together, forming a chain of data known as the "blockchain." Each new block of information contains a reference to the previous block, linking them together in a way that makes tampering very difficult. Transactions are transmitted across a peer-to-peer network of computers, validated through solving equations, and collected into blocks that are added to the blockchain, forming a permanent record of all transactions.
The document provides an overview of blockchain use cases. It begins with remembering the key components of blockchain like blocks, miners, proof of work, and distributed ledgers. It then discusses public versus private blockchains and how private blockchains allow for control over participants. Several specific use cases are outlined, including smart contracts, proof of existence services, digital notarization of photos/videos, digital weddings, lottery systems, alarm clock apps, and banking operating systems. It is suggested that 2017 will be a year when more blockchain proofs of concept and pilots move into limited production and early adoption.

The document provides information to differentiate between Blockchain and Hyperledger:
- Blockchain is a decentralized technology that records immutable transaction records in blocks secured by cryptography. It can be public, private, or consortium. Hyperledger is a platform that allows building private blockchains where access is limited.
Smart contracts are the next version of automated contracts where the user won't have to rely on trust. Smart contracts are automated algorithmic digital forms of contracts where parties can exchange assets without any intermediaries based on specified rules. Here, the program within the smart contract will self-execute based on the conditions previously defined by the parties.
There are certain benefits to using smart contracts such as autonomous, secured, interruption-free, trustless, cost-effective, fast performance, and accurate and error-free. But here, we will analyze the examples of smart contracts, such as how it can be useful in digital identity, supply chain management, insurance, etc.

Quality Patents: Patents That Stand the Test of TimeAurora Consulting
Is your patent a vanity piece of paper for your office wall? Or is it a reliable, defendable, assertable, property right? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent simply a transactional cost and a large pile of legal bills for your startup? Or is it a leverageable asset worthy of attracting precious investment dollars, worth its cost in multiples of valuation? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent application only good enough to get through the examination process? Or has it been crafted to stand the tests of time and varied audiences if you later need to assert that document against an infringer, find yourself litigating with it in an Article 3 Court at the hands of a judge and jury, God forbid, end up having to defend its validity at the PTAB, or even needing to use it to block pirated imports at the International Trade Commission? The difference is often quality.
Quality will be our focus for a good chunk of the remainder of this season. What goes into a quality patent, and where possible, how do you get it without breaking the bank?
** Episode Overview **
In this first episode of our quality series, Kristen Hansen and the panel discuss:

Future of Blockchain
7
The attention that Blockchain has received in the past two years has created
strong momentum for both software developers and beneficiary companies to
take action towards creating useful applications.
• Once current Blockchain enterprise initiatives show signs of success, other companies
will copy their success and we will see a new field of standardized, cross-industry
Blockchain solutions
• Early adopters have an advantage over competitors because they have influence over
Blockchain implementations, and benefit from efficiencies of Blockchain infrastructure
long before slow-moving competitors

• Transparency, resilience, and cryptography protect data in the Blockchain
• Cryptography adds resilience to DBs to deter hackers
• Audit electronic actions to easily complete forensic analysis if a hack occurs
• Providing irrefutable evidence of electronic action
• Immutable logging and connection of data to create a tamper-proof chain of data
• Immutable data means accurate reporting and analytics
• These factors solve the inefficiencies of traditional transactional models

A Blockchain Advantage - Immutability
10
Data is syndicated to all peers & signed by network of participants
Decentralized control is a federation of nodes with voting permissions that
creates a super P2P network
Each new block is chained to previous transaction & validated
If something was changed, the Blockchain would become invalid at that
point and broadcast the error to all nodes
Immutability allows any fraud or error to be identified and corrected,
eliminating any single point of failure and making it easy to have a
correct record of all behavior at any point in time

Use Cases – Facing New Data Sabotage Threat
13
Background: The new trend in Cyber Attacks is not stealing data, but
hackers changing data without the parent organization realizing some
of their data has been corrupted.
• Public Sector - Cases of intelligence being altered so government
officials act on untrue data/cannot trust what they are given.
• Private Sector - Cases of financials being altered so companies are
making financial decisions incorrectly based on the outputs they are
receiving from the data they have. Examples of tax records being
changed, organ donor lists, security information, embezzlement.

How Blockchain Prevents Cyber Threats
14
Blockchain creates an immutable database where each entry is hashed
in a block, and the current block has the hashes of all the previous
blocks in it (distributed across nodes who all verify it), so if a past data
entry is tampered with (and a majority of the nodes do not accept it)
then it will make the block invalid, which both cancels the transaction
and shows that data was tampered with.

Use Cases – Intellectual Property Tracking
15
BigchainDB can reduce licensing friction in channels connecting
creators to audiences, and gives perfect provenance to digital artifacts.
• A typical music service has 38 million songs - BigchainDB could
store this information in a heartbeat, along with licensing information
about each song and information about use by subscribers.
• In another example, consider a medium-sized photo marketplace
running 100,000 transactions a day; to put this on Bitcoin would cost
$10,000 per day and tie up the Bitcoin network.

Use Case – Receipts and Certification
16
BigchainDB reduces legal friction by providing irrefutable evidence of
an electronic action.
• BigchainDB is big enough that supporting information like receipts
and certificates of authenticity (COAs) can be stored directly on it,
rather than linking to the document or storing a hash.
• Legally-binding contracts can be stored directly on the BigchainDB
next to the transaction, in a format that is readable by humans and
computers.

Use Case – Supply Chain Tracking
17
By tracking high-volume physical assets along whole supply chain,
BigchainDB can help reduce fraud, providing massive cost savings.
• Every RFID tag in existence could be entered on a BigchainDB.
• Smart contracts (decentralized processing), where the application
must be fully decentralized and database functionality is crucial.
• Already being implemented to track diamonds and eliminate related
fraud
