Conflux tree map to become a "comprehensive management traceability platform" after an outbreak

The holiday extended indefinitely, and the epidemic continued to overshadow the rest of the country. The first outbreak in wuhan, sweeping across the country, affecting hundreds of millions of people's new epidemic of coronary pneumonia, it seems that there is no sign of stopping.

In this war without smoke "epidemic", all people and enterprises are one of the associated, many caring people and enterprises have donated money, donated goods, help the front. In addition to money and materials, more enterprises, including blockchain enterprises, have launched epidemic-related products or systems based on their own conditions.

We have seen new applications such as easy signage tree map, new crown risk screening system, outbreak collection and monitoring system, etc. that rely on block chain technology to cut into all aspects of anti-epidemic. In the distributed office environment, the tree diagram easy to sign and other small procedures were developed in the first time, and gradually promote, play a role.

Those applications, born in a particular time and scenario, are likely to fade as the outbreak fades, but according to Yang can, CEO of Conflux's consortium chain, they can still be useful if planned early. "Technically, the tree chart is just a prototype." After the outbreak is over, the team plans to work with regulatory authorities, such as production and quality control departments, on the app to participate in more periodic emergencies, Yang said. In other words, it's not "out of date."

Choose from the donation confirmation

"In a severe epidemic, we always have to figure out how to do something." In the interview, Yang can expressed the heart of most blockchain enterprises.

Since February, nearly 20 blockchain-related applications have been launched to assist epidemic prevention and control, including scenarios such as identity management, information confirmation, supply chain finance, and information collection and confirmation. Conflux's small public benefit program for epidemic prevention, "tree diagram easy signature", launched on February 13, is one example.

The birth of the tree chart is derived from the team's thinking on the transparency problem in the field of public welfare donation. At the height of the epidemic, many hospitals in wuhan had to appeal directly to the public for help due to lack of medical staff and protective materials. However, under such circumstances, how to collect, transport and distribute materials efficiently and transparently has become an urgent problem to be solved. In general, it is difficult for donors to directly receive the recipient, and for a long time, the flow of donated materials can only be verified by logistics information display or the recipient's signature, seal, photo, video and other traditional methods.

"Based on our own strengths, we realized that cryptography and blockchain technology could effectively solve the difficult problems of tracking and publicizing donated materials." Yang added that from the perspective of usability and its own advantages, the team chose to make an app that could effectively verify the flow of donated materials.

"The whole working process of the products are actually quite simple. First of all, hope the donations of party according to the first donation demand and generate a pair of public and private key, and the demand and public key by a third party social media display; willing institutions after seeing demand for donations, we will register for the chain on the details, details are listed on the block chain, when the receiver receive donation can make use of the hands of the private key signature confirmation on goods detail."

The public key can be used to query the donation status, so as to avoid a series of problems like misappropriation and misappropriation of materials to the greatest extent. According to Yang can, the team attaches great importance to the qualification of the donor. "in the past few days, every kind of voice has been heard, some of them want to donate directly, but we still want to set up an access mechanism, and compliance is very important."

It only took the team about a week from the initial idea to the development, upload, review and launch of the tree map. "we hope to launch the tree map as soon as possible and contribute to the fight against the epidemic."

What else can we do in the future?

Although the development is not difficult, but in fact, as a combination of block chain and public key cryptography products, tree diagram easy sign does have a number of problems including threshold. For example, how to introduce public and private keys to more people who don't know blockchain? In addition, in addition to the identity of the participants before and after, this also needs to carry out a lot of qualification inspection, donation information audit and other work.

"Strictly speaking, the easy sign of the tree diagram is just a prototype," Yang can said frankly. As for the threshold problem, the team will then access the key storage tool and automatically generate the public and private keys, hoping to make more users who don't know much about the block chain use it and have no sense of the complicated links such as the public/private keys. "The review is being done by the team."

But such a pattern, early understanding, once the workload suddenly increased, it is bound to need specialized personnel responsible. However, it is an active effort for Conflux and the blockchain industry as a whole. "Facts have proved that the easy signature of tree map can meet the pain points of charity and public benefit. We hope to develop more products based on this in the future, and even cooperate with relevant government departments to provide customized blockchain products."

Mechanism, in fact, as a distributed data storage, consensus, the encryption algorithm and a series of new applications of computer technology mode, block chain technology as early as a few years ago has applications in areas such as finance, electronic access card be born, and similar tree graph is easy to sign this application with specific functions, is the product of the special period, also can really play a role in the outbreak, but after the outbreak?

& have spent

Have idea for this team, Yang Can tells us that in the future, tree graph easy sign will eventually develop into a comprehensive traceability management platform, in addition to charity, will also play a role in health care, the farmer's scene, "I'm bullish on block chain in government service, public security, the role of urban areas such as intelligence, supply chain, and Conflux also will be promising in the field."

In this special period, whether blockchain can take this opportunity to convey to more people the advantages of the combination of technology and entity. In this context, blockchain teams developing various applications are bound to play a more important role.
