Foreword
This paper is the result of a research project carried out by Labs
in EVRY Financial Services during the fall of 2015. The content of
this report is the result of a comprehensive study, featuring online
sources, literary works, as well as recordings of financial
conferences such as Consensus 2015 and Fintech Week 2015.
We aim to provide a comprehensive report detailing the
opportunities, challenges and key success factors for financial
institutions looking to leverage the opportunities presented by
blockchain technology.
We hope you enjoy this study and that it helps give you greater
understanding.
A Blockchain is a type of diary or spreadsheet containing information about transactions. Each transaction generates a hash. If a transaction is approved by a majority of the nodes then it is written into a block. Each block refers to the previous block and together make the Blockchain. And I am sharing this to help everyone to learn about blockchain technology.

27 MAJOR BLOCKCHAIN APPLICATIONS AND REAL-WORLD USES.pdfYunusAdam1
Blockchain applications now go well beyond money and bitcoin. Technology is having an impact across a wide spectrum of organizations, from contract enforcement to government efficiency, due to its ability to promote openness and justice while also saving corporations time and money. This approach offers a much broader variety of applications.
Many people focus on cryptocurrencies, their speculative value, and how they may be utilized to make – or lose – a lot of money quickly when it comes to blockchain. This, however, does not do justice to the blockchain's incredible technology. Current and future breakthroughs have the potential to alter many industries.
Pros and Cons of Blockchain Technology: Your Complete Go-to GuidePixel Crayons
The benefits of Blockchain are many, but do you know what makes it the need of the hour? Multiple participants manage its decentralized database known as Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT).
Yes, Blockchain is a disruptive technology compared to traditional database systems. Besides, not a single entity controls it; there is no chance of exploitation or suppression from any one party. As a business owner, I know you might be thinking of adopting Blockchain; however, you are still unsure about it.
To take you out of this dilemma, I am here to discuss some most prominent pros and cons of Blockchain. So, get ready to dive deep and discover some amazing Blockchain pros along with some blockchain cons.
Since the technology is not so old and needs expertise, always hire a trusted Blockchain development company.
Blockchain technology is a revolutionary way of storing and transferring data. While it has its share of cons, it is possible to rectify most of them with the right planning and execution. The current state of blockchain technology makes it the best suit for businesses that want to take advantage of its distributed ledger features. However, the technology is not simple as it seems to be. Hence, I would once again recommend you to hire Blockchain developers with experience and the right skills in Blockchain development services. Otherwise, your business may suffer.

Blockchain for Land Records and Real Estate
1. T H E F U T U R E O F L A N D R E C O R D S M A N A G E M E N T
KAREN A. YARBROUGH – COOK COUNTY RECORDER OF DEEDS
JOHN D. MIRKOVIC - DEPUTY RECORDER, COOK COUNTY
2. WHAT IS “BLOCKCHAIN”?
A new way of keeping a shared
transactional record (database)
A “distributed ledger” with frequent
reconciliation, all users hold identical
copy
A protocol: a set of rules, like the
Internet
3. WHAT IS “BLOCKCHAIN”?
Designed to be permanent and “immutable”
The “digital infrastructure” that makes
Bitcoin possible
A technology that allows two people to
exchange value without a bank or third-
party settlement service
4. …it is the first native digital medium for
value, just as the internet was the first
native digital medium for information…
Don and Alex Tapscott, Harvard Business Review
“
5. WHAT “BLOCKCHAIN” IS NOT
Not a company (decentralized, peer-to-
peer)
Not patentable (it’s open source)
Not an online drug market (Silk Road)
Not inseparable from Bitcoin (private
blockchains)
6. WHAT MAKES BLOCKCHAIN
REVOLUTIONARY?
Allowed the creation of online “cash”
without banks; near-instant settlement
A system that can only be used as
designed (enforced trust)
Utilizes technology and game theory;
more lucrative to participate than hack
7. WHAT MAKES BLOCKCHAIN
REVOLUTIONARY?
Allows automated legal agreements
(smart contracts) that guarantee
performance
Allows middlemen who add little value to
be “disintermediated” saving everyone
$$$$$
8. WHY BLOCKCHAIN MAKES
SENSE FOR LAND RECORDS
Enables an “unhackable” public record
Distributes storage across all offices
Allows us to focus on accuracy,
efficiency
9. WHY BLOCKCHAIN MAKES
SENSE FOR LAND RECORDS
Can “lock” conveyances from
unauthorized transfer
Land records already kept in a “chain”
Path to paperless transactions and
electronic recording in all jurisdictions
10. WHY SHOULD
CLERKS/RECORDERS CARE?
The idea behind blockchain is not going
away
Some believe it would make us obsolete
Can restore trust in government
11. WHY SHOULD
CLERKS/RECORDERS CARE?
Can help reverse the march towards
complexity (TRID)
Combines instrument (deed) + act of
conveyance (digital signatures) into one
transaction
An open record that is more private (digital
signatures)
13. “The next push of the envelope...
“[NSA Director James Clapper is] worried about not just data
destruction and theft but about what he calls the “next push of
the envelope”: data manipulation, whereby adversaries subtly
edit and corrupt information inside US computer systems,
undermining confidence in government or industry records.”
WIRED MAGAZINE, DECEMBER 2016
15. What is the problem?
If blockchain is a solution, what is the
problem?
Resources: dwindling, more with less
Accuracy: data manually entered more than once; perpetuates
the system; data spread across multiple agencies
Efficiency: documents touched by many hands; unify the
conveyance and the public record
Security: records from all of us held by all of us
Stagnancy: electronic recording has taken a long time to be
adopted, meanwhile new technologies have vastly increased
our capabilities
16. Let’s get more detail…
A blockchain is a replicated, autonomous, Byzantine-
fault-tolerant log with consensus based on blocks that
permits external auditing and lightweight nodes, and
provides non-repudiation of the log entries.
BITFURY GROUP, 11/29/16
“
17. Let’s get more detail…
“Very loosely, a blockchain system is a package which
contains a normal database plus some software that
adds new rows, validates that new rows conform to
pre-agreed rules, and listens and broadcasts new rows
to its peers across a network, ensuring that all peers
have the same data in their databases.”
Source: bitsonblocks.net
18. New made from old
The blockchain is a unique
assembly of (mostly) already
existing ideas
Encryption (SHA 256) = NSA
Distributed databases
Electronic signatures
MVCC
Hashcash (PoW algorithm = hard to
solve, easy to verify)
Peer-to-peer network (Internet)
19. “Double-spend problem”
Bitcoin solved “internet money’s” biggest
problem
If you are using a non-physical asset, how
do you ensure it is not a copy, counterfeit,
or previously sent to someone else
WITHOUT reliance on a trusted third party
Called the “double spend problem”
20. What is Bitcoin?
You can’t appreciate blockchain without
understanding Bitcoin BUT you can’t understand
blockchain without thinking beyond Bitcoin
A digital cryptocurrency ~ like Internet Cash
Has built-in limit on # of coins created and built-in
inflation control
Can be exchanged anonymously w/o need for trust
“Coins” exist only as inputs + outputs (never leave
the ledger, aren’t transferred or moved)
Txs packaged into “blocks” and “mined”
21. Let’s look at a Transaction
Slide Credits: CoinCenter.org
22. What you need to know
Hashing: a function designed to be easy
to generate/verify, extremely difficult to
reverse. Turns any string of characters into
a standard-length output
Mary had a little lamb. =
d2fc16a1f51a653aa01964ef9c923336e10653fec195f493458b3b21890e1b97
Mary had a little Lamb. =
7981d013be9985060dd9fbb8b97e409be7460955e21adf084e505df31ce3cf08
Every file (or Tx) has a unique, permanent
hash value; used for comparing files after a
backup or transfer
23. What you need to know
Public Key Cryptography:
asymmetric key pairs verified using
elliptic curve cryptography
Two parties can sign and verify transactions while only
knowing each other’s public key
Public Key = like an email address; encrypts message
Private Key = mathematically derived from Public Key; used
for decryption
PKI does not require a secure channel to transmit keys
Asymmetric vs: symmetric (need for secure transmission
channel)
24. What you need to know
Proof of Work: requiring expenditure
of resources to verify consensus (turns
electricity into money)
Fast and powerful computers needed to run complex
algorithms that “solve” the puzzle
These computers require energy, cooling, maintenance, etc
CAPTCHA: a simple example
Designed to prevent/deter spam and denial-of-service DDOS
attacks; prevents “cheating”
25. What you need to know
Non-Repudiation: inability to deny
that an action or transaction happened
Function served today by Notaries
Blockchain can “self-notarize” documents
But…unless someone sees you typed in your key,
you can always assert that it wasn’t you (Stolen
key) or that you were coerced
28. Let’s look at a Transaction
“MINERS” use
their computers
and resources to
solve crypto-
puzzles.
Winner shares
their solution, all
ensure it is valid.
29. How is Blockchain so secure?
{One-Way Hash Functions x Elliptic Curve
Cryptography} + Proof-of-Work + Distributed &
Democratic Consensus + Fast Reconciliation Time
= TRUSTED PROTOCOL
Participation more lucrative than attacking
(mining/verification creates new Bitcoin)
Rewriting transactions more expensive than their
value
Network moves too fast, have to rewrite everything
30. Different Types of Blockchains
Public (Bitcoin) vs Private
Permissioned vs Permissionless
Bitcoin vs Ethereum
31. Different Types of Blockchains
Consortium Blockchains:
R3 (Corda), Hyperledger (IBM),
Microsoft (Ethereum-based),
DIY Blockchains
Different types of blockchain allow different types of
transactions (derivatives, native-data and image support
The debate within the “industry” is very contentious
“Blockchain” vs “blockchain”
32. What Can You Do With Blockchains?
Blockchains allow parties to transact business
without having to even know each other’s
name.
Blockchain applications can create “smart
contracts” that use software to guarantee
payments upon milestones or actions.
Blockchain transactions are not reversible (no
chargebacks)
33. What Can You Do With Blockchains?
Blockchains allow proof that a certain
document existed at a certain time.
Blockchains can guarantee a person’s
identity while also protecting it.
Blockchains allow disadvantaged regions to
enter digital commerce where bureaucratic
infrastructure has not yet reached
34. What Is “The Industry” Thinking?
Blockchain evangelists have rightly recognized
the ability of distributed ledgers to eliminate
middlemen
A future where people are buying & selling real
property without even speaking to a human or
entering an office, or knowing the other party to
the transaction
While technically feasible, government interests
do not allow fully anonymous transaction of real
estate
35. Challenges to Blockchain in
Land Records
Amount of data – blockchains best at
transmitting small amounts of data
Technology still “early”
Status quo both biggest opportunity and
barrier
Hard to explain and talk about
We have to do it together
36. About CCRD’s Pilot Program
“The Cook County Recorder of Deeds will become the first
government agency in the United States with a pilot program to
officially reference conveyances and other instruments recorded
in a blockchain thanks to a pioneering, exclusive partnership
with California-based startup velox.RE. Velox is developing a
platform for conveying properties with blockchain technology.”
“The ongoing project will include a pilot program to test
cross-compatibility between the client-server database model
and distributed ledgers, as well as a focused effort to deliver
better information on vacant buildings in the City of Chicago
to prevent their fraudulent use and conveyance.”
37. About CCRD’s Pilot Program
Part 1: Determine whether a legal conveyance can
happen electronically in a blockchain, and how to get a
record into CCRD’s database.
Part 2: Use the City of Chicago’s “Demolition List” to
demonstrate the “digital abstracts” can be created and
the value of data centralization, why they are important
to blockchain real estate, then cross-notating the “red
flag” in the Bitcoin blockchain
38. About CCRD’s Pilot Program
BROADER GOALS
Promote awareness of the technology
Show a path to easier real estate Txs
Show how a public record can be more
private
Make it harder to convey real estate w/o
permission (private keys)

41. Recap: what is blockchain?
How to talk about blockchain
A protocol (set of standardized rules, like
“the internet”)
A new way of securely storing data by
spreading it across all users (counties aka
nodes) that enables an irreversible record
protected by cryptography.
42. Recap: what is blockchain?
How to talk about blockchain
A distributed database protected from
revision by advanced cryptography that
guarantees consensus by distributing full
copies of the ledger to all users.
