The Problem
Human life has changed! Modernization era has come, and information and connectivity become its keywords. Information will not completely usefull without the support of connectivity.
Lets take the simplicity, simple example is the internet and its use, when the internet plays an active role in the dissemination of information, then the entire population of the world will know whatever is happening in any part of the world, even the financial industry also use the internet as a means to disseminate information or provide convenience to its customers to make transactions without having to wait for queue at the Bank to make transactions. This is what we call the Revolution’s Industry 4.0, because all things are done by using wireless network services by utilizing internet technology. But the internet is also not a safe place to get accurate information. Crime often occurs by utilizing the internet network.
I would use the problems that occur in Indonesia, especially Aceh as the example of the case. Internet is not only help people in positive way, but also made people easily trapped in the plagiarism. Internetand its connectivity made them can easily download music or movies, or news spread over the internet and then modified in such a way until finally considered as his original work. An example of what happened on this news that intellectual plagiarism performed by a doctorate who transferred some of the contents of a student's papers into a thesis that he made. Also plagiarism done by local artist of Aceh. The news can be read here here
Moreover, the plagiarism is also occured on the news materials spread to the internet by taking quotes or photos that spread on the internet and then made property without mentioning the source. This will be a major problem for the productivity of Acehnese in the future, especially with which relevant to internet and technological developments.
The second problem that arises is, with the widespread use of the internet, even in terms of financial they do not want to miss by presenting the features of product marketing conducted through the internet. It can also trigger the occurrence of a crime that is often referred to as cyber crime, where a cracker can steal data from a customer by giving a phishing account that will be used to drain out a customer's balance at a bank, you can read the news here
Scam also often occurs on atm machine that in fact is connected to the Internet network, the thief easily duplicate the card atm customer then stole his pin and last scooped the customer money whose being a victim.
The problem that I mentioned above is a major problem in Indonesia, especially in Aceh nowadays, it is the impact of a centralized system. This means that the system is controlled by only one server, but when the central server can be broken, then all will be down. This is also dangerous for the security of the community, because there is no more security in maintaining the confidentiality of personal data, because to transact financially even the community still have to use the services of a third party, in famous we called Bank.
The Solution
With the presence of blockchain technology that embraces the decentralization system in the future, it is hoped that people can be free of financial problems, and no need to use third parties anymore in transactions, so that their data is safe from thieves.
Well.. Blockchain have a function as an OpenLedger that have decentralized, it is mean that the server is not only controlled by one party in a network, but anyone has full rights to have information from a stored data when they are in the same network, for the security check will also be more trusted because there will be a validity check on a data from a spam attack before data is locked and inserted in a folder, this is what we call as mining or known as proof of work.
Proof of work is the first generation of blockchain better known as bitcoin blockchain, but it still lacks in terms of transaction speed and resource depletion. Then comes the second generation that is expected to overcome the problems of the first generation. In the second generation emerged proof of stake which became an alternative method to reduce the use of electrical energy as happened in the first generation so that the cost is cheaper than the first generation.
In this second generation smart contract is present so that the transactions which made by certain parties can not be changed or counterfeit because it is permanently recorded on the blockchain system.
But the renewal is still happening in the development of blockchain technology that has now entered the 3rd generation, in this third generation we called it Delegated Proof of Stake that can accommodate more transactions at high speed. This third generation is also equipped by graphene technology that is more friendly to the consumption of resources, eventually the cost incurred will be cheaper than the cost spent by the previous generation.
In this 3rd generation steemit has an important role in it because with the steemit platform then the brain performance will be increased to create original content without having to become a plagiarist. Another advantage of steemit is the work of our brains will be rewarded by getting votes and payouts, also known as Proof of Brain.
Apply Blockchain Technology by utilizing steemit and introducing it into people who still have a high productivity
In the following development of the blockchain technology, a basic understanding of blockchain is necessary so that no one is trapped in it, so on that basis I want to create a development project for 'the introduction of blockchain and steemit utilization as a reliable medium of the future'.
What will I do in this project is to introduce the extent to which blockchain and steemit which can be the solution of the future in financial freedom. So what will I do in to establish this project?
I will divide the project into two categories:
- Make a movement campaign about blockchain and steemit that will be done once a week in the different places every time meeting (café, playground). The target is a society that still have a high productivity, should be between 20-45 years old.
- To socialize blockchain and steemit to the campus in Aceh’s province, but I will devides it into 3 areas: Banda Aceh, Lhokseumawe and West Coast of Aceh. The target is lecturers, students, campus stakeholders.
What will be discussed?
- Blockchain introduction (the history and foundation of blockchain technology and how blockchain works)
- Introduction of cryptocurrency formed using a blockchain system.
a. Function and benefit of cryptocurrency
b. The understanding that cryptocurrency is not using for payment method in the country, but as an investment tool - Opening thecryptocurrency’s account and learn how to invest
- Introduction to steemit (the concept of steemit, the benefits of playing steemit)
- How to earn income through steemit
- Role play (making games about transactions using blockchain or steemit system)
Term of Project
This project is expected to take approximately 3-6 months because it is assumed that activities will be done once a week and each sub discussion will be simulated so as to facilitate the target to understand the material presented.
Results to be expected
Within 3-6 months at least 200 new people will understand about blockchain and steemit technology. Then these 200 people are expected to become more and more aware of the technology, and finally a new technology called blockchain can be accepted completely by the community.
My biggest thank to @mariska.lubis, @rismanrachman, @alaikaabdullah, @kemal13, @ihansunrise and @rahmanovic for the time to discuss.
Special thanks to @Sndbox, @voronoi, @hansikhouse, @guyfawkes4-20, and @anomadsoul for giving me the opportunity to do this quest.
