VNT WEEKLY, October 28

Project Updates

1. On the afternoon of October 25, the 2018 China National Computer Conference held by Yunphant Blockchain - "The New Trend of Blockchain Technology and Application" was successfully closed! The site was full of audience and the response was overwhelming. In this conference, Bai Shuo, director of ChinaLedger Technical Committee; IEEE Fellow Chen Yan; VNT Chain co-founder Huang Butian; Huobi China CEO Yuan Yuming; Huobi University President Yu Jianing; CCF Blockchain Committee first member Wan Zhiguo, co-founder of Yunphant Blockchain Deng Xu and other guests all made wonderful speeches. Empower a distributed economy and create a better world--VNT Chain has been moving forward!

2. On the afternoon of October 25, the “Cloud Box” open service platform conference was held at the sub-forum of the 2018 China National Computer Conference - "New Trends in Blockchain Technology and Application". “Cloud Box” is a blockchain open service platform developed by Yunxiang Blockchain based on VNT Chain. For the future planning of “Cloud Box”, Deng Xu, co-founder of Yunphant Blockchain, said that Yunphant will cooperate with VNT Chain to make DApp a very important step in the future application of blockchain, and strive to access to more than 2000 DApp in the next three years and apply them to various scenarios on the Cloud Box open service platform.

3. On October 27, Dr. Huang Butian, co-founder of VNT Chain and founder of Yunphant Blockchain, was invited to the 2018 China National Computer Conference (CNCC2018) Roundtable Forum "The Future of Sharing Economy". He explained how to use blockchain technology to optimize the product form and governance structure of the sharing economy, so that the sharing economy can play a real effective role. He believes that the sharing economy has reached a crossroad currently, and the bottleneck is that it has not achieved true "equity sharing" or is in a centralized monopoly operation mode, which violates the spirit of the sharing economy to some extent.

Community News

1. On October 28, the first episode of the VNT Chain “Block Theory” serial salon was hit! The team of VNT Chain team shared opinions on the topic of “How to Improve the Security of Smart Contract” with senior experts from Yunphant Blockchain, who has rich experiences in implemented application, Zhejiang University Intelligent Computing and Systems Laboratory, Kanxue Academy, Pencil Road, BITRUN, etc. in Hangzhou Xixi Valley AB|Center. Dr. Huang Butian, co-founder of VNT Chain and CEO of Yunphant Block Chain, also showed up on-site and had a close interaction with development enthusiasts to discuss the problems, details, interestingness and cool creative points encountered in the process of technology development.
