In the last round of the bear market, the doubts in people’s hearts were whether the blockchain was useful, and then we saw the power of Uniswap and the vitality of Defi.Is there a positive answer in the blockchain?
In this round of cycle, many people have deeply cultivated DEFI, and many people have doubts again, “what can be used for blockchain to do other.”It is not because it is not satisfied, but the current blockchain is like a dragon with only a wing. It is trapped in a limited site. Only when its other wings grow up, will it fly to the sky.Only when its other wings grow, the power of the first wings can be truly released.
Where will the wings grow from?It will not come from the level of the chain, such as the new chain or new layer, which are the wings of the dragon’s torso rather than the wings of the dragon; it will come from the level of the application on the chain, and it is very likely to come from the new standard/new protocol under the new standard/new protocol.Not the application under the old agreement.Under the premise that everyone has racked their brains for several years, the old agreement failed to surprise.
In this article, I want to discuss the three new standard/new protocols of personal favorite, ERC-6551, ERC-5169, ERC-404.The new agreement will open a new application direction, and the new application direction may bring users with non -investment needs and non -financial needs to the blockchain, allowing Long to grow another wings.
ERC-6551
ERC-6551 has a broad appearance, but has a broad narrative space. This article only discusses the direction that I am most interested in. I call it a non-human account subject.The three use cases in the article may be empty, but you see, the destination of the aerospace industry is the sea of stars. Before bringing us to Mars, it can bring us air cushion shoes.
1. Game: The integration of live players and NPC
“Kenshi” is an open game I like. Players can sell goods between different cities to make money, but the deserts between cities can be dangerous. At this time, you can go to the tavern to find mercenaries and spend money to let the NPC escort the caravan.In traditional games, these NPCs cannot be real people, and because they are not real people. In the game, there is no growth except for players other things. The lonely players will finish all the tasks one day and leave this game.
Can there be a new type of subject or object? It can carry a real person or NPC?When real people enter the live mode, players operate normally, such as improving skills and building cities; enter the NPC mode when real people go offline (read fixed data and execute specific programs), do passive in the live mode of other players in the live mode of other playersNPC makes money, such as being a mercenary.Blockchain plus ERC-6551 is the best carrier of this subject.NFT (game character) has accounts, data and property, and can be regarded as independent object processing; real -life accounts have NFT, which can take over control after online.
It is not to say that the blockchain and ERC-6551 solve all the problems of integrated live players and NPCs, but they open a possible path.As a heavy gamer, I often ask myself that “the blockchain is not possible to make the game more fun”, lists countless answers, and also draws almost all answers after derivating.Finding the road on the NPC is an answer that has not been scheduled.
2. AI: equal status of AI and humans
Humans are a kind of self -esteem, and we regard everything as our own tools or affiliated.However, technology is not a subsidiary of humans. When we go to see the technology tree, we will find that it is another powerful evolutionary force, and it has where it is going to go.If the self -esteem has just missed human beings to miss a more happier lifestyle (Levi Strauss), in the future, it may bring a tragedy of race.
Perhaps we need to take a step forward and regard AI as the subject of equality with humans.So, where will it be the living place of AI?Will they put themselves on a private server that controls the rights belonging to others?What way do they manage and use their assets?The answer may be: a data main body on a public chain (or a certain consensus), which has an account (ERC-6551) instead of the account holding subject.
Take a step back, AI game characters (especially AI characters based on strengthening learning), AI agents (large -scale narratives), they are the main body of accounts.
3. Digitalization: Human Digitalization Future
Through data collection and AI training, it is no longer far away to generate a little similar to the digital space. The problem is that it is only one ten thousandth of similarity, or it can be recognized as a digital self.In view of human pursuit of eternal life, training the digital avatars will be a common thing, so that this digital avatar will always exist and give it a physical body after the technology matures.
The “life” of this number avatars is a problem, especially after the death of the prototype.It is unreliable to give it to others, including loved ones, because there is a long time to cross.The best strategy is to leave enough money for it to maintain itself.In this case, it requires a permanent account (account cannot be closed) and assets that can use the account.What can you think of solution?Furthermore, if the number avatars can be considered a digital self, it is a subject of equality with people. It makes money and spends money. It not only maintains and develops itself.So where does it live?How to achieve independence, or how to make the number avatars have the highest permissions to the digital avatars?
ERC-6551 is an answer.ERC-6551 is the carrier of the independent digital main body. Regardless of whether the subject is a game character, an independent AI, or a person’s digital avatar.
ERC-5169
Before discussing ERC-5169, we need to discuss the two kinds of ourselves that we add to ourselves.One is about data, and the other is about trust.
The blockchain can only process the data on the chain, and the boundary of the data on the chain is regarded as the boundary of the blockchain capacity.In order to expand this boundary, in almost every round of development, we will try the data on the chain, but whether it is theory or practice tells us that only rare data has the value or significance of the chain.The blockchain effectively expands the boundary.We stop here.However, there is a vast space between the data that is completely needed by the blockchain and the data that does not require the blockchain processing. In this space, some of their data can be handed over to the blockchainTreatment to obtain the capacity of the blockchain, another part of their data can be handled by the chain to obtain the advantages of out -of -chain data processing.The boundary of this space is the boundary of the blockchain capacity. This space should be divided into the territory of the blockchain instead of being excluded.
Trust may be one of the biggest charm of the blockchain, but it is difficult to achieve trust.We often deceive ourselves and equivalent decentralization with decentralization. Some decentralization can indeed bring trust, but other decentralization brings a centralized object that should be responsible for something and escape their responsibilities.In fact, the situation of the data on the same chain and the data under the chain is similar. Some things need to be trusted, and some things need centralized trust. Some things need to be used to trust to protect the rights and interests.Trust or other forms of trust to protect rights and interests.The pursuit of all trust will not only lose a large number of leadership in the blockchain industry (to trust and combine other trust), but also due to the decentralization alternative to trust in trust, which will damage the de facto rights and interests of the project participants.
The work of ERC-5169 is to open these two new territories.With the help of this standard, developers can explore the application direction of part of the data chain processing and part of the data chain processing, and can explore the application direction of the right to trust and other trust.These directions are brand new and vast.
ERC-5169 is a programming-centered programming. That is to say, the data and the linked data on the chain are anchored on a certain token.People in the web2 world may not understand why they deal with it. In their eyes, tokens may be just a digital asset with facial value, but people in the blockchain field deeply know the interoperability and combination of the method.This interoperability and combinedability are one of the most disruptive innovations in the blockchain.ERC-5169 expanded this innovation from the chain data to the linked data, from going to trust to other trust.
ERC-404
A good friend convinced me to pay attention to the ERC-404 standard in one sentence. He said, “The fried blind box is not long-lasting, it must be fried wine.”Products that can produce blind boxes with ERC-721, and products that use ERC-404 to produce wines are the wonderful place of ERC-404.
In terms of production methods, the difference between wine and blind boxes is that wine is a product produced and sustainable production by standardized production methods; in terms of product attributes, the scarcity of wine comes from the consensus of the public.Value (the scarcity of blind boxes is derived from the setting of the project party).ERC-404 may be regarded as a product production machine. The input terminal is data (production data), such as block height, random number, etc. The output is a product that can be sold or available, such as generating art.No need to intervene in the production process, it is standardized and automated production; no need to design scarcity, the public decides to be scarce.
Taking Blind Blind Box and Stir-fried Wine as an example to discuss ERC-404 because they are the most intuitive and most easy products to be accepted by blockchain users.The meaning of hidden after this example is that only when a type of product can be produced in a standardized production method can it be adopted on a large scale; only when scarcity comes from consensus can it continue.This is why my friend is interested in ERC-404. He regards Web3 as a new type of economic activity. He uses productivity and product to observe and judge the web3 project.This is a grand narrative that contains blockchain but not only in the blockchain.
ERC-404 is clear and easy to understand, and what is really challenging is how to use it.If the application of ERC-6551 is mostly to create new demand, the application of ERC-5169 is mostly provided new solutions for realistic problems. In my eyes, the successful ERC-404 application may need to be superb.It can bring out the magic of ERC-404; it is not a simple matter to form a consensus.
End words:
The new standard/new protocol is new forces. New technologies and new scenes also create additional new conditions for the release of this force.Taking ERC-6551 as an example, it can be combined with many new technologies, including Intent-CENTRIC and account abstraction; it can be applied to many new scenarios, such as the autonomous world and AI.
The last thing to say is that when we discuss the value of different new standard/new protocols, it does not mean that the proposed project or direct related projects of the agreement is valuable, but refers to the new protocol.New projects, and these new gameplay or new projects may break the deadlock, which may be that the dragon is growing wings.
