Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Prozess des Minings von Bitcoin. Dabei soll erklärt werden, wie elektrische Energie genutzt wird, um neue Blöcke zur Blockchain hinzuzufügen und welche Renditen dabei zu erwarten sind. Gleichzeitig soll geklärt werden, ob das Mining von Bitcoin ein Geschäftsmodell ist, mit welchem Anlagen zur Erzeugung erneuerbarer Energie auch ohne Förderung durch das Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz (EEG) wirtschaftlich betrieben werden können.
Es wird beschrieben, wie sich diverse Einflussgrößen auf die Wirtschaftlichkeit des Minings auswirken. Eine Auswahl an Mining-Hardware wird hinsichtlich ihrer zu erwartenden Erträge geprüft. Außerdem werden die Risiken dieses Geschäftsmodells näher betrachtet.
To enable smart devices of the internet of things to be connected to a blockchain, a blockchain client needs to run on this hardware. With the Trustless Incentivized Remote Node Network, in short Incubed, it will be possible to establish a decentralized and secure network of remote nodes, which enables trustworthy and fast access to a blockchain for a large number of low-performance IoT devices. Currently, Incubed supports the verification of Ethereum data. To serve a wider audience and more applications this paper proposes the verification of Bitcoin data as well, which can be achieved due to the modularity of Incubed. This paper describes the proof data that is necessary for a client to prove the correctness of a node’s response and the process to verify the response by using this proof data as well. A proof-object which contains the proof data will be part of every response in addition to the actual result. We design, implement and evaluate Bitcoin verification for Incubed. Creation of the proof data for supported methods (on the server-side) and the verification process using this proof data (on the client-side) has been demonstrated. This enables the verification of Bitcoin in Incubed.
The number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices is increasing rapidly. The Trustless Incentivized Remote Node Network, in short IN3 (Incubed), enables trustworthy and fast access to a blockchain for a large number of low-performance IoT devices. Although currently IN3 only supports the verification of Ethereum data, it is not limited to one blockchain due to modularity. This thesis describes the fundamentals, the concept and the implementation of the Bitcoin verification in IN3.
Private Blockchain-Netzwerke können von Unternehmen für die Integritätssicherung von Produktionsdaten verwendet werden. Die Hochschule Mittweide entwickelt im Rahmen des Forschungsprojektes safe-UR-chain ein derartiges Blockchain-Netzwerk. Teil dieser Entwicklung ist die Auswahl und Optimierung eines Konsensverfahrens für das Netzwerk. Für diese Aufgabe fehlt es momentan an einem System, das den Vergleich von Konsensverfahren anhand ihrer Leistungsmetriken ermöglicht. Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit der Entwicklung eines derartigen Systems sowie der Implementierung dreier Konsensverfahren, die anhand ihrer vom System erfassten Leistungsmetriken verglichen werden.
Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Analyse der Verbindungen zur Blockchain-Technologie und der künstlichen Intelligenz. Das Hauptziel ist, neue Bereiche der beiden Technologien zu beschreiben und zu erklären. Zuerst werden inhaltliche Fragen und Erklärungen für ein besseres Verständnis der beiden Technologien erläutert. Des Weiteren werden gemeinsame Einsatzszenarien, sowie dessen Realisierung betrachtet. Zuletzt werden Vor- und Nachteile, sowie eine Zukunftsprognose der Blockchain-Technologie und der künstlichen Intelligenz aufgestellt.
Blockchain and other distributed ledger technologies are evolving into enabling infrastructures for innovative ICT-solutions. Numerous features, such as decentralization, programmability, and immutability of data, have led to a multitude of use cases that range from cryptocurrencies, tracking and tracing to automated business protocols or decentralized autonomous systems. For organizations that seek blockchain adoption, the overwhelming spectrum of potential application areas requires guidance reducing complexity and support the development of blockchain-based concepts. This paper introduces a classification approach to provide design and implementation guidance that goes beyond current textbook classifications. As an outcome, a typology for management and business architects is developed, before the paper concludes with an instantiation of existing use cases and a discussion of their classes.
Currently, the Internet of Things (IoT) is connected to the virtual world through the Web of Things (WoT), allowing efficient utilization of real-world objects with Internet technologies. The WoT facilitates abstract interaction between applications and connected IoT devices, allowing owners to switch between devices while using multiple ones. To achieve this, virtual assets in WoT devices can be tokenized through smart contracts and transferred using hashed proof as transactions within blockchain networks that support virtual currencies. The goal of Web of Things is to establish connectivity, interoperability, and integration among IoT devices using web standards and protocols, reducing reliance on device manufacturers. This enables easy integration of Web 3.0 cryptocurrency for device management. This study proposes a solution for WoT applications involving different cryptocurrency definitions. Finally, simulation results are presented to demonstrate the tokenization-based ownership transfer in the Web of Things.
Tokenization projects are currently very present when it comes to new blockchain technologies. After explaining the fundamentals of cross-chain interaction, the bachelor thesis will focus on tokenizing technology for Bitcoin on Ethereum. To get a more practical context, implementing the currently most successful decentralized tokenization project is described.
The financial world of blockchains is mostly covered by Bitcoin, taking up about 210 billion dollars in market cap. Despite the huge security and independence which the technology offers to the users, it's not quite easy to adapt with upcoming applications due to the regulated infrastructure behind. For small-scale transactions, everyday use applications or the access to a variety of crypto technologies and projects, Bitcoin is relatively limited in future development. The compatibility for most of those applications is covering currencies from more development-driven blockchains like Ethereum. Those want to reach out for the user base that's already in hold of Bitcoins and offer them a seamless transition to new applications without the risk of losing their funds. Within the article, atomic swaps and tokenization are covered up and current approaches compared. Both mechanisms are used to fulfill this symbiosis between Bitcoin and Ethereum.
To get a more practical view, an example on how to implement such a tokenization within an app is shown. This will give deeper insights and offers inspiration for digital identity-based app development.
The topic of soulbound, non-transferable tokens is getting lots of interest within the blockchain space lately as decentralized societies become more tangible with Web3 social media applications and DAOs. In this article, I want to outline how such tokens function, their problems for adoption and standardization, and how they differ from verifiable credentials in the SSI field. As such soulbound assets will likely rely on extended recovery and asset management schemes to become viable identities that safely gain reputation and trust, features like social recovery and contract-based accounting are incorporated. By combining those new technologies and the theoretical crypto-native identity construct, the paper will give an impression of the future user-centric data economy.
