La tecnología blockchain es una innovación que se describió por primera vez en 1991, de la mano de los científicos Stuart Haber y W. Scott Stornetta, y que describía una forma de escribir información en un tipo de base de datos basada en redes distribuidas. Esta innovación NO FUE, creada por Satoshi Nakamoto, fue implementada por él y es la base de la tecnología Bitcoin que vio la luz en enero del 2009 y gracias a ella y a otro cúmulo de tecnologías, hoy se puede decir que Bitcoin es DESCENTRALIZADO. Pero la BLOCKCHAIN NO ES DESCENTRALIZADA. Bitcoin es descentralizado y otro montón de monedas buscan o dicen buscar e incluso solo dicen que son descentralizados para llamar a los entusiastas y tener más credibilidad en un mercado saturado de proyectos. La cadena de bloques es una tecnología de transmisión y escritura de información en una estructura de base de datos en sistemas distribuidos, y al ser distribuidos pueden ser abiertos o cerrados, privados o públicos, federados y permissionless. Todo depende de cómo lo utilicen los desarrolladores de un proyecto. En este episodio de Criptomonedas sin Tapabocas quiero darte una visión general sobre esta tecnología, como puedes reconocer qué tipo de acceso tiene según el proyecto. ¡Gracias por escuchar y por disfrutar!

This podcast was recorded in early November, on the sidelines of the Singapore Fintech Festival 2022. It was fitting in the spirit of the event to have Stuart Haber join Kopi Time. Dr Haber, along with Scott Stornetta, co-invented the blockchain technique in 1990, which was later adopted by Satoshi Nakamoto as the basic mechanism for data integrity in Bitcoin. We begin the conversation travelling back over three decades, to understand the problem and motivation that drove Haber and Stornetta toward the blockchain. It is clear even as young coders and crypographers, their ambition was high and their goal was to have transformative and lasting impact on the way civilisation's records are stored. We then talk about the seminal moment in 2008, when the Satoshi white paper came out, and Dr Haber's take on it then (and now). We tackle the questions of a crypto bubble, Bitcoin's adverse environmental impact (and possible solutions around it), proliferation of tech solutions looking for a problem, and the applications that appeal to him. Dr. Haber talks about his current research, and takes on my question on the potential impact of quantum computing on cryptograhy-based record authentication.

It was the year in which, despite everything, CoinGeek managed to bring BSVers together in Zurich and New York for two magnificent three day conferences. Both online and in person, they showcased the vibrancy of entrepreneurship around BSV, featuring a host of new projects like Peersend, Haste and Project Babbage, while also digging into its history with blockchain pioneers Stuart Haber and Scott Stornetta and cryptography guru Ian Grigg. Then, of course, there was that trial: the seemingly endless drama in a Miami courtroom in which Dr Craig Wright successfully defended himself against accusations of fraud from the brother of his late friend and colleague Dave Kleiman.And it was the year in which the world learnt, to its bafflement, about blockchain technology through the extraordinary prices being paid for NFTs. So how to sum it all up, from the perspective of the 48 editions of CoinGeek Conversations that were aired in 2021? In the final show of the year Charles Miller was joined by the two founders of the Women of BSV group, Diddy Wheldon and Ruth Heasman and his reporter colleague, Claire Celdran. Their choice of highlights led to discussion that included Terranode, Ira Kleiman's emailing habits, Craig Wright's audiobooks and those ubiquitous NFTs.  On that subject, Ruth Heasman was happy to trumpet the advantages of BSV: “comparing the differences between BSV and other blockchains, there's really no one else doing it the way that BSV is doing it at the moment,” she said. “The fees mean, on Ethereum, that generally artists, unless they sell an awful lot or at a very high price, then they're not making any money from their artwork. But on BSV of course, transaction fees are often less than a cent, or certainly less than a few dollars anyway.”Claire Celdran picked a clip that told us something about Craig Wright which had nothing to do with Bitcoin. He was talking about his huge consumption of audio books, sometimes through the night. For Claire, it was a welcome insight into his personality: “he has a certain charm about him because he's smart. And from what I've learnt in the many interviews that I've seen of Craig is that he loves to learn. He's had this never-ending journey, picking on all these courses from different universities. So that's something I admire about him.”It was the potential of Terranode that Diddy Wheldon wanted to highlight, choosing a clip from the Zurich conference in which nChain's CTO Steve Shadders performed a live demo of scaling on the BSV blockchain, which Diddy believed, “proves the point of the scaling debate.” Indeed, Steve's demo showed 50,000 transactions per second, with the promise of at least double that being possible.As for the prospects for 2022, Ruth Heasman confessed she was up for more of the same: “more intrigue. I love it, it's like being part of a soap opera almost, following Bitcoin. But it's fascinating. It's ever changing. It's exciting. And I just couldn't imagine not being in the middle of it. I really couldn't. I love it.”Happy 2022 from CoinGeek Conversations!

Stuart Haber and Scott Stornetta: How our timestamping mechanism was used in Bitcoin

Working at Bellcore Labs in the 1990s, scientists Stuart Haber and Scott Stornetta were allowed to pick their own research projects. For Scott, a problem worth solving was the authentication of digital documents: how could you be sure the version you were looking at had not been altered from its original? The two worked as a team and were on the point of proving to themselves that the question of trust made the problem insoluble: there always needed to be some independent person or body to verify authenticity – but what if they were also part of a collusion?  But then, Scott says, he had a brainwave. If you needed to keep adding extra trusted parties to vouch for the honesty of the existing players, then, logically, the list would expand infinitely until the whole world was required. And that still wouldn't be enough.Scott's insight was, as he explains it, that “I realised that if you turn that upside down and created a system of interlinked documents with essentially everyone as a witness, then you had, in fact, solved the problem.”As Stuart points out, time is an agreed social construct. So, using time means that, in effect, the world would be able to validate your document as having existed in a particular form at a particular time. On this week's CoinGeek Conversations, Scott and Stuart talk about how they turned their theory into working code and how that became a key part of the Bitcoin White Paper.Their original paper, How to Timestamp a Digital Document, was published in 1990. It showed how the various elements of a timestamp verification system would work. In practical terms, they used hash functions to generate the additional files. Stuart describes a one way hash function as “a way of …taking the fingerprint of a file”. And that was the basis of the system that Bitcoin uses to this day:“Now we call it a blockchain, but we built a chain of blocks. And in order to achieve worldwide agreement …on the registration requests that our service had received once a week, we would compute a fingerprint, a small string of numbers and letters …that efficiently summarised the entire week of requests that had preceded it, and we published that.”The two eventually started their own company, Surety, which operates to this day. And the Sunday edition of the New York Times still publishes, as an ad the company pays for, the hash that acts as the ‘fingerprint' for all of the last week's transactions. Scott says he and Stuart welcomed Satoshi Nakamoto using their timestamping work in Bitcoin: “it was terrific in my mind that on top of a foundational layer, Satoshi had this terrific innovation.”An important part of Satoshi's development of the idea was to limit it to money, Scott says. They had had wider ambitions, but a more focussed approach was more productive: “we expected all the world's financial records would be done with this system. But in addition, all the world's photographs, all the world's movies. So we weren't short on ambition, but I think there was great insight to limiting it to a very specific use case.” Stuart says he and Scott enjoyed being invited to the CoinGeek conference in New York, where they met Dr Craig Wright for the first time: “Scott and I both both met Craig …and we've enjoyed our conversation, great conversation with him, both on stage and off stage, about all sorts of topics - not all of them involving hash functions.”

At this point, it is probably safe to say that most people have heard of blockchain. However, most of those people would likely say that it has something to do with Bitcoin. Obviously, they aren't wrong. However, blockchain existed before the granddaddy of cryptocurrency burst into the mainstream consciousness. In fact, it existed before Satoshi first spoke of Bitcoin in his 2008 white paper. Bitcoin just took advantage of its security features – one of the most important of them being timestamping.  Blockchain was invented back in 1991, when the internet was still the domain of scientists, academics, the military, and the unpopular kids at school. In their own paper published that year, W. Scott Stornetta and Stuart Haber made it clear they saw the digital revolution that was coming. The pair recognized that a component of that would be the digitization of all kinds of documents, from papers like theirs to medical records to home titles. They also foresaw a problem we now take for granted – the fact such things are all too easy to fake.  We've seen that again and again in the Digital Age. Not a week goes by that we don't hear of a data breach at a major company that puts people's identities at risk. Any time that happens, there is a chance for people to lose money, reputation and even their homes. All because our data and our digital documents are rarely as secure as they should be.  That established, how can blockchain and specifically timestamping help? Timestamping is so simple, it just means that when something happens, a time is attached to it. If a lease is created, there is a timestamp for it. Once it's signed, it's stamped again. When it ends, it is stamped. There is a clear, chronological record of any change made to a digital record. No one can come along and alter that time, no one can insert a false record with a false stamp into the blockchain. Remember, one of the other features of blockchain is that a copy of every transaction exists on every node in the chain. This is what actually makes the whole concept of digital signatures possible. Without the timestamp as part of the code associated with a legal document, it would be easier to produce a forgery with a different signature. That docusign feature is doing a lot more than destroying the last use for fax machines.  If you think about it, timestamping is a much older concept than 1991. It's been used in court reporting, medical records, research, and logs of government activity for thousands of years. Date and time have been attached to events to make sure there was a solid understanding of how events progressed ever since there has been papyrus to write it on. Whether keeping track of royal negotiations or the progression of a medical treatment, the importance of timestamping has been recognized long before the computer was invented. Haber and Stornetta simply realized the same concept needed to be adapted to our current circumstances.  Properly applied timestamping is essential for virtually every aspect of modern society. It not only allows for the tracking of the ownership of data, because of how simple it is to verify it prevents the theft of everything from documents to intellectual property. We will probably never know just how much time and money hasn't been wasted on legal disputes thanks to this simple and effective technology.  TARTLE of course makes use of exactly this technology in our data marketplace. It is what allows us to keep track of your data and where it goes after you decide to sell it. If someone down the road needs to verify its source, they'll always be able to. If someone tries to falsely attribute data to you, you'll always be able to point out that it doesn't have your code attached and there is no timestamp that can be traced back to you. That's how we protect both you and your data. What's your data worth? www.tartle.co

Network and Digital Marketing Tips (Rajeev Anand)

Bitcoin vs. Blockchain The goal of blockchain is to allow digital information to be recorded and distributed, but not edited. Blockchain technology was first outlined in 1991 by Stuart Haber and W. Scott Stornetta, two researchers who wanted to implement a system where document timestamps could not be tampered with. But it wasn't until almost two decades later, with the launch of Bitcoin in January 2009, that blockchain had its first real-world application. The Bitcoin protocol is built on a blockchain. In a research paper introducing the digital currency, Bitcoin's pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, referred to it as “a new electronic cash system that's fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party.” The key thing to understand here is that Bitcoin merely uses blockchain as a means to transparently record a ledger of payments, but blockchain can, in theory, be used to immutably record any number of data points. As discussed above, this could be in the form of transactions, votes in an election, product inventories, state identifications, deeds to homes, and much more. Currently, there is a vast variety of blockchain-based projects looking to implement blockchain in ways to help society other than just recording transactions. One good example is that of blockchain being used as a way to vote in democratic elections. The nature of blockchain's immutability means that fraudulent voting would become far more difficult to occur. For example, a voting system could work such that each citizen of a country would be issued a single cryptocurrency or token. Each candidate would then be given a specific wallet address, and the voters would send their token or crypto to whichever candidate's address they wish to vote for. The transparent and traceable nature of blockchain would eliminate the need for human vote counting as well as the ability of bad actors to tamper with physical ballots.

Dr Scott Stornetta: Co-Inventor of Blockchain on Crypto ClotheslineSpeaking with the original co-inventor of Bitcoin was such a warm and friendly experience... Nothing like you would imagine Satoshi Nakamoto would sound - If you believed the rumors that Dr Scott Stornetta is in fact Satoshi. It is safe to say we absolutely do not believe these rumors however there is still space for us to be wrong. Blockchain was not born together with Satoshi’s Bitcoin white paper, it had been mooching around for almost 20 years before Satoshi started creating new layers on top of the original protocol, thereby creating Bitcoin…Scott went on to tell us that although their processes were on track, technology was just not there yet as the biggest storage drive was just 10mb compared to our terabyte hard drives we have now. Chris Dorian of BuildSort asked the inevitable question of whether Scott Stornetta was in fact, the Satoshi Nakamoto? The response was interesting “I'm a fan of what he's done, but I do want to say that when Stuart and I first talked about the Bitcoin paper, we felt like some of it was just a great idea, out-of-the-box thinking... And then other parts of it we looked at and said: Why did he make that mistake? Why did he do that?” But as our audience, have a listen and see what you think..... Is Dr Stornetta the real Satoshi?

Le principe fondateur de la blockchain a été inventé par deux chercheurs américains en cryptographie, Stuart Haber et Scott Stornetta, dès 1991. Ils cherchaient alors un moyen de protéger l’intégrité des informations numériques au fil du temps. Leur système a été appliqué à la monnaie en 2008 par un certain Satoshi Nakamoto avec la création de la première cryptomonnaie, le bitcoin. L’originalité de la technologie de la blockchain réside dans la garantie d’une impossibilité de falsification des informations qu’elle contient grâce à un système d’échange décentralisé. Cela lui permet de se passer de tout organe central comme une banque, un état ou un organisme. Les échanges d’information se produisent directement entre les utilisateurs de la blockchain. C’est ainsi que des transactions peuvent être réalisées entre des internautes à l’aide de cryptomonnaies comme le bitcoin ou l’Ethereum avec un très haut degré de sécurisation. Ainsi, la blockchain devient un instrument de transactions qui attire aujourd’hui aussi bien des banques ou des assurances que des trafiquants sur le darkweb. Parallèlement, le cours des cryptomonnaies fluctue fortement et séduit les spéculateurs qui rêvent de faire fortune.  Face à cette ébullition, les entreprises s’interrogent et certaines franchissent le pas comme Thales qui, avec Accenture, a présenté un nouveau système de logistique basé sur la blockchain. De même, Microsoft travaille sur un programme d’identification numérique et la ville japonaise de Tsukuba fait voter ses habitants avec la même technologie.  Dans ce contexte, quels sont les champs d’application et les limites de la blockchain ?  Nous avons rencontré Emmanuel Viale,Directeur Exécutif de l’Accenture Lab à Sophia-Antipolis.

Today we met with Deryck Graham of First Digital Capital, who’s sponsoring the live community event ‘Blockchain Economy’ happening next week in Perth, on Tues 21st August with a view to attracting crypto enthusiasts, blockchain professionals, investors and those simply wanting to learn more about all of the above. The main purpose of the event being education and networking. Guest speakers include a veritable New York line up starting with Dr Scott Stornetta, Co-Inventor of the Blockchain, Dr David Yermack, Professor of Finance at NYU Business School and currently working for a month with the University of Western Australia, and Justin Dombrowski, CEO of Soho who is presently collaborating with First Digital Capital. While we questioned Deryck about the obvious lack of women in the speakers’ line up, he assured us that Fremantle’s very own Dr Jemma Green was unable to join the event that evening and that visiting Simonne Hurse of Techfest-club.com and Satis group would be among panellists on the night. I really really care about getting more women involved in all this, and I co-run a group for women in tech here in NYC, with 2000 members. We're always looking for excellent speakers + companies to sponsor the group, please get in touch if you'd like to get involved. (http://www.techfest-club.com/) From Simonne’s profile on LinkedIn. Dr Scott Stornetta struck our imagination and Amy-Rose is musing over whether he’s actually Satoshi, or better, Scottoshi… Currently a high-school maths teacher, he started working on the blockchain idea back in 1991 while working as a researcher at Bell Labs, before even the unfolding of the internet. The research involved whether he and a colleague, could make a digital file unbreakable and indelible, according to Deryck. They were unable to prove their hypothesis, but then 3 months later, they couldn’t prove that it COULDN’T be done either… Some time later while queuing at a busy restaurant one Sunday lunch, he had an ‘ahah’ moment when he observed all the people lined up in front and behind him, with the other diners watching them in line… “Hashtags in a chain were the people in the queue, and the distributed ledger were the people watching us in the crowd…” Dr Scott Stornetta’s work is mentioned 3 times in the Bitcoin whitepaper by Satoshi Nakamoto. Deryck has been involved in a number of community charity events, one that saw Perth Porsche drivers take children out for a convoy ride through the streets and city of Perth in conjunction with Make-a-Wish Australia (transforming the lives of children battling life-threatening medical conditions through the healing power of a wish), raising in the meantime hundreds of thousands of dollars. He currently runs Classic Cars & Coffees one Sunday a month at the University of WA, where between 350 to 550 cars are showcased by members who raise funds for charities. We’re thrilled to be attending Blockchain Economy this coming week and will share all the chats and interviews on the Clothesline!
