Bitcoin technology has already been around for almost a decade. But as the year comes to a close, tech experts think they have found a new use for one of its core technologies.<\/p>

All of a sudden, the word on every trade professional\u2019s lips going into 2017 is blockchain \u2013 the public distributed ledger system used to verify Bitcoin transactions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Blockchain is not brand new, but the way people are now thinking about it certainly is. At its core, blockchain is a distributed digital ledger. In most cases, companies still use outdated paper ledgers or central databases to log transactions. The problem with systems like these is that they can be ineffective, and are susceptible to tampering and cyber-attacks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Blockchain, however, is a cryptographically verifiable solution that does not use a single central ledger stored on a company\u2019s PCs or servers. Instead, the technology allows peers on a network to share their information. Each peer logs their respective information, and when everyone has logged their transaction data, an immutable block is formed. This first block becomes the basis for the next block, forming a chain that all users can access and verify but nobody can change.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

For traders, this system provides numerous advantages. It is a tamper-proof and transparent chain that does away with third-party ledgers, clearinghouses and central hosting systems. Getting started with blockchain is also fairly straightforward, as all you need to begin is a network of computers, a shared protocol for the network to use and a consensus system.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Although blockchain has won a lot of admirers, most trade professionals are not yet rushing headlong into this brave new world of ledger management. Nonetheless, many traders and logistics experts are now starting to test ways of using blockchain technology.<\/p>

Energy traders are among those now conducting advanced blockchain trials. One such example is Siemens, which has\u00a0teamed up with a blockchain startup<\/a>\u00a0to offer microgrid control and automation solutions that the company claims will \u201cprovide additional value on the utilities and the prosumer side.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Blockchain may also be used in the\u00a0food industry<\/a>\u00a0in the future, with large players such as Walmart already testing cost-reducing blockchain technology. Experts claim such solutions could help retailers monitor their produce and\u00a0act fast if unsafe food accidentally ends up on their shelves<\/a>.<\/p>

The\u00a0Australian Securities Exchange<\/a>, meanwhile, says hospitals and clinics find traditional ledger management burdensome and expensive. It claims that blockchain could offer the medical industry the chance to radically overhaul its data-storage systems.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

And Bill Gates\u2019 Gates Foundation has recently given a\u00a0grant of an unknown size<\/a>\u00a0to a company that wants to use blockchain to manage medical records in developing countries.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Logistics is also in for a shakeup, if blockchain evangelists are to be believed. Rotterdam, one of Europe\u2019s most important shipping ports, is\u00a0currently testing blockchain tech-based solutions<\/a>\u00a0in conjunction with Dutch governmental and educational bodies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Visakhapatnam, one of India\u2019s biggest ports, has moved to\u00a0create a blockchain institute<\/a>\u00a0in collaboration with the University of California, Berkeley. The Indian government has also held talks with Singapore-based enterprises about \u201cpreparing the ecosystem\u201d for blockchain ventures.<\/p>

Shipping companies are also in on the act. A British-American freight forwarder has recently made waves by becoming the\u00a0first shipping company in the world<\/a>\u00a0to adopt a public blockchain to its delivery process.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The government in the Philippines\u2019 has previously spoken about putting its\u00a0currency on blockchain<\/a>. Although it may take a long time before any country is capable of actually following through with such a measure, times are changing fast.<\/p>

In countries like\u00a0the UAE<\/a>,\u00a0the UK<\/a>,\u00a0Germany<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Finland<\/a>, governments are now looking at ways blockchain could shake up logistics, financial trading and state transactions. That means traders will likely have to follow suit \u2013 or better yet, take the initiative and pioneer blockchain change themselves.<\/p>

Big IT companies like IBM and Microsoft are getting into blockchain, and are specifically targeting traders and logistics companies. With more technological solutions at their disposal, traders are increasingly likely to continue exploring the ways they could use this technology in the years to come.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Nothing is set in stone when it comes to blockchain, and some are still wary about rushing into new IT-based ledger solutions. However, some logistics experts are\u00a0very optimistic about blockchain\u2019s potential<\/a>, and some pioneers say it could even \u201cradically transform the global economy<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>

The second quarter of 2016 also saw\u00a0an enormous spike<\/a> in the amount of established companies and governments around the world beginning blockchain tests.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

If nothing else, traders\u2019 interest in this new form of ledger management has now been piqued. And as we move into 2017, all eyes are on this fast-developing trend. Although many are still waiting to see if blockchain can prove its worth, it seems trade experts now have a reason to be cautiously optimistic about the future of ledgers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
