 So to understand what a radical 1 change this is going to bring, let's look at one industry, financial services. 所以为了理解即将到来的突破性的改变,让我们看一个行业:金融服务业。


Recognize this? Rube Goldberg machine. 你们能否认出这是什么?小题大做的机器。
It's a ridiculously complicated machine that does something really simple, like crack an egg or shut a door. 这台机器离奇地复杂,工作却很简单,像是敲碎鸡蛋或是关上门等。
Well, it kind of reminds me of the financial services industry, honestly. 老实说,它使我想起了金融服务业。
I mean, you tap your card in the corner store, 我的意思是,你在街角的商店刷了卡,
and a bitstream goes through a dozen companies, each with their own computer system, 一股比特流便穿过了好几家公司,每一家都有自己的计算机系统,
some of them being 1970s mainframes, older than many of the people in this room, and three days later, a settlement occurs. 其中还有一些20世纪70年代的主机,甚至比在座的各位还要老,然后三天过后,一份交易说明诞生了。
Well, with a blockchain financial industry, there would be no settlement, 好吧,金融业有了区块链,将不再会有交易说明,
because the payment and the settlement is the same activity, it's just a change in the ledger 2. 因为交易和交易说明是同一种行为,它只是在账本中有所不同。
So Wall Street and all around the world, the financial industry is in a big upheaval 3 about this, 所以在华尔街或世界上所有地方,金融业正在巨变,
wondering, can we be replaced, or how do we embrace this technology for success? 思考着自己是否会被取代,或是如何正视技术迎接成功?
Now, why should you care? Well, let me describe some applications. 现在为什么要在意呢?让我来讲述几个应用吧。
