Symbol of Registration Revolution
Site
could be considered as a symbol of the Internet. Combining an unique Internet
address (URL, IP) with texts, pictures, services and entertainment.
I propose to
consider the purse (e.g, Ethereum
Wallet) as a symbol of a rapidly renewing Network.
With a unique
network address, but also and money, relations, contracts, property, reputation
...
Purse
with reputation - an artistic image of the owner of a new world
- the world of era of registration revolution.
Pessimists would
be upset, optimists would be inspired, but they all would be impressed by the
artistic image, I hope. J

Name
Initially, the
text was devoted blockchain. However, I soon realized that the most important
element of novelty in blockchain is a publicly accessible history of
transactions that nearly impossible to forge - in other words, registration of
transactions that nearly impossible to forge.
In reality it is
a beginning of the fourth revolution of the cost - after transport, industrial
and information revolutions.
This fourth
revolution of the cost, I propose to call the
registration revolution. This name more accurately reflects the
essence of the matter than, for example, the "revolution of trust" -
it revolutionized of the institution and the cost of socially significant
registration, rather than, say, the institution or the cost of socially
significant confidence.
Axioms of registration revolution
- Registration
of facts (transactions) becomes:
- almost eternal
- open (public)
- impossible
to forge
- Registration
of facts (transactions) service becomes:
- automatic
- open
- independent
- decentralized
- public
- Important
part of the content of the facts (transactions) remains private
Related innovative concepts
- Smart contracts
- Perspectively
- The main
question - the reliability of programming of the contracts
- The level
of results depends on the development of culture and programming tools,
especially in the tools that guarantee the quality of software products
- Internet of
Things and Internet of Everything
- The same
as for the smart contracts, but taking into account the problems of
embedded systems
Effect of registration revolution
- Local
institutions and registration services are not in demand
- Criminal
activities associated solely with the registration, loses its meaning
- Professions
associated exclusively with the registration services are no longer needed
- The
legislation regulating the registration, fundamentally changing
- Public
relations do not become easier or better - they get other
- including
the fact that the technical platform provided with infrastructure self
communities, built on a non-trivial basic values
- the
balance of which is clearly represented by
the respective programms-contracts – by analogs of social
laws
- publicly
available history of all transactions, which can’t be corrected
- awareness, objectivity, responsibility
- the impossibility of forgery -
honesty
- decentralization
- freedom
- diversification
(multiple duplication in independent nodes) - indestructibility,
religiosity (a planning horizon)
- reputation
- responsibility
- a clear
separation of public and private, supplemented fundamental inability to
violate privacy - clarity and simplicity
- developed
a software interface to create add-ins at any level - flexibility,
versatility, multifunctionality
- code
transparency - a promising concept of intellectual value, the base and
guarantee the development of innovative, independent evaluation and
quality control
Implications for programming
- The role
of programming in general, especially programming culture "smart
contracts" will grow
- It requires
an updated culture of profession programmer as a whole
- Programming
quality, reliability in the first place, must be ensured by the means
(including languages) programming, and by programming culture, and by
programming-related laws, licenses (no as is!)
