What is On-Chain?



What is On-Chain?


On-chain is a transaction written on a blockchain network.


All on-chain transaction information is included in the block, and recorded transactions cannot be permanently deleted. Representative examples of on-chain are Bitcoin and Ethereum, which form their own networks, and all transactions in the blockchain are recorded and disclosed to all users. 


However, there is a possibility of various problems to rely solely on on-chain. There are speed problems that take a long time for transactions to be confirmed on the network after the transaction occurs, privacy issues that all transactions in the blockchain are disclosed to everyone, cost issues that incur payment costs to miners when verifying transactions, and scalability issues such as low TPS. In other words, the on-chain lost its speed instead of gaining high stability. A representative method for solving the scalability problem of the on-chain is the big block.


Centralized servers can easily upload large amounts of data, but blockchain has a limited amount of data that can be stored per block. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully decide what data and how much data to store according to the purpose of each blockchain network, mainly data such as timestamps, hash values of previous blocks, and transaction details are included in the block. At this time, the amount of data that can be stored is limited, while the amount of data to be stored continues to increase. Onchain solves this scalability problem through a method called Big Block.




* Big block


A big block literally means increasing the size of a block. This process is very simple; it can convert a block into a big block by modifying only some codes. Bigblocks will require fewer fees and will be able to store more transaction details. For example, Bitcoin in the past could store only 1MB of data per block. At that time, there were many voices calling for solving the scalability problem by switching to a big block, but Bitcoin developers increased the storage capacity per block to 2MB through another way to separate Bitcoin transaction information and electronic signature information through SegWit.



The reason is that in order to create a new big block, the node must have the highest-level RAM (32GB). If that happens, only professional mining companies that run mining machines, not individuals, will be able to continue mining. As a result, it is very likely that only a few nodes with top-level mining resources will survive and centralized mining will take place. In addition, modifying some codes is simple, but persuading blockchain network members is very difficult. In order to switch to a big block, a hard fork must be made, and if all network members do not update from the old version to the new version, the network will be separated.




The Bitcoin protocol takes an on-chain payment method that records all transactions generated in the network on the blockchain. This takes a very long time to verify because it stores all the transaction data in the block. Therefore, delays in confirmation occur, and fees paid to miners naturally become expensive. In the end, Bitcoin's market liquidity decreases and small payments are made impossible, resulting in a decrease in its value as a payment method, that is, currency.


Conversely, the lighting network introduces an off-chain verification method, so that all transactions occurring in the network are not recorded in the blockchain. At this time, in order to create a transaction, you must first send enough bitcoin, a kind of deposit, to the multisig address you share with the counterparty, where only a small fee is charged after opening the channel.



Numerous transactions between people trading on this channel are off-chain transactions and are not traded on the blockchain. Afterwards, the parties who have completed the transaction liquidate the balance and send it to their respective personal addresses, resulting in an on-chain transaction, recorded on the blockchain, and the channel terminated. Off-chain transactions occurring in the channel do not require confirmation from the miner, so there is no fee and the transaction can be concluded immediately concluded. As a result, small remittances that were not possible in the existing Bitcoin protocol can be made, which can have the liquidity of Bitcoin and value as a payment method.

A very easy explanation for quantitative easing and quantitative tightening

The Federal Reserve is the central bank of the United States. The central bank issues money. So the Fed prints dollars. An institution that can print money won't invest in bonds to make money. The Fed's purpose of buying or selling bonds is to control the amount of currency. The central bank can issue money, but you can't give it away to anyone. It's a crime if the central bank just prints the money and distributes it on the street. So when it increases the volume of money, it uses a specific method, which is bond buying. Mainly government bonds. The central bank buys bonds = The central bank gives money to the private sector and the bonds return to the central bank. The central bank is an independent agency. The government can use fiscal policy through tax returns and bond issuance, and it cannot intervene in central bank monetary policy. The government borrows money by selling treasury bonds to the central bank for fiscal policy. The central bank doesn't keep the ...

アーサー·ヘイズのeth mergeに関する意見

 1.「eth merge」イベントがまもなくやってくる。 2。グーグルのイーサ検索量とイーサ価格の相関関係は0.77水準で非常に意味がある。 イーサに対する関心はトークンの価格に応じて上昇/下落し、価格が上昇するにつれ、より多くの人がイーサについて聞き、購入して使用することを望み、価格上昇をフォーミュラ形態に導く。 3。次のシナリオがある。 1) マージ成功  - 取引者は価格が高いほどより多くのネットワーク使用、より高いデフレ率を予測し、イーダを持続的に購入する。     価格上昇の好循環構造、高点はすべての人類がイーサウォレットアドレスを持っている時です。 2) マージ失敗  - 価格/デフレ率の間に否定的な関係が発生、取引者がショートしたり、イーサ未保有の選択 イーサーは現在、遠くない非常に大きな時価総額を記録している。 それに伴う開発者数やダブは依然変わっていない。 したがって、イーダはルナ崩壊/3AC破産時に記録した800$底点より低くならないと考える。 4.市長の意見  1) マージが成功するか失敗するかに対する市場の現在の状況だ。   2) ETH/BTCのパフォーマンスは最近すごかった。 市場は、最後の成功を高い可能性と予想していることを意味する。   3) 2.は現物市場の意見に過ぎない。 派生商品/オプションはどうか？ 4) バックワーデーション=ギフト価格<現物価格:割引価格のギフト取引     コンタンゴ=ギフト>現物:プレミアムで先物取引 23年6月物まで全体曲線がバックワーデーション取引が行われている。 これはまもなく先物市場が満期日までにイーサ価格が現在の現物価格より低いと予測するということだ。 OI(未決済約定)も同様に、底点以降継続ATHを更新しており、バックワーデーション現象も同様である。 5.現在の売り圧力に対する二つの潜在的な理由  1) イーサ現物買収はしたものの、マージへの確信がないため、現物より高い先物契約価格を販売することでヘッジ  2) マージが発生すると予想し、無料配布されるETHW（POW）を得ることを望む。 ただ、イーサ価格の変動についてはヘッジしたい。  - したがって...
