Wikipedia - “A distributed database that is used to maintain a continuously growing list of records, called blocks. Each block contains a timestamp and a link to a previous block”

Slide 8 -

Double spend conundrum Double-spending is the result of successfully spending digital money more than once Blockchain for bitcoin made it the first digital currency to solve the double spending problem without requiring a trusted administrator Protects against double spending by verifying each transaction added and ensuring that the inputs for the transaction had not previously already been spent Uses a decentralized system, where a consensus among nodes following the same protocol is substituted for a central authority

Slide 9 -

Characteristics of blockchain Information held on a blockchain exists as a shared - and continually reconciled - distributed database The blockchain database isn’t stored in any single location, meaning the records it keeps are truly public and easily verifiable No centralized version of this information exists for a hacker to corrupt Hosted by millions of computers simultaneously, its data is accessible to anyone on the internet

Slide 10 -

Characteristics of blockchain Decentralized nature prevents control by a single entity Transactions are immutable (unable to be changed) and exist forever The blockchain network lives in a state of consensus, one that automatically checks in with itself every ten minutes (new block creation) Eliminate third party intermediaries/overhead costs to reduce transaction fees, in addition to settling transactions 24/7

How is the network powered? (Nodes) Node - A computer connected to the blockchain network using a client that performs the task of validating and relaying transactions) gets a copy of the blockchain, which gets downloaded automatically upon joining the blockchain network Every node is an “administrator” of the blockchain, and joins the network voluntarily (in this sense, the network is decentralized)

Slide 13 -

Why host a node? Incentive - the chance of winning cryptocurrency (proof of work) Nodes are said to be “mining” by solving computational puzzles and adding transaction records to the blockchain (fees) Smart way to issue the currency (decentralized) and creates an incentive for more people to mine Nodes use the blockchain to distinguish legitimate transactions from attempts to re-spend coins that have already been spent elsewhere

Bitcoin has been useful as a digital currency, but merely stands as a one-trick pony. An idea was envisioned for the blockchain to provide functionality far beyond currency. Enter Ethereum and Smart Contracts

Slide 16 -

The future is being built as we speak And it is being built on Ethereum

Slide 17 -

Build unstoppable applications Ethereum is a decentralized platform that runs smart contracts: applications that run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud or third party interference. These apps run on a custom built blockchain, an enormously powerful shared global infrastructure that can move value around and represent the ownership of property.  This enables developers to create markets, store registries of debts or promises, move funds in accordance with instructions given long in the past (like a will or a futures contract) and many things that have not been invented yet, all without a middle man or counterparty risk.

Slide 19 -

What are smart contracts? Computer protocols that facilitate, verify, or enforce the negotiation or performance of a contract, or that make a contractual clause unnecessary Help you exchange money, property, shares, or anything of value in a transparent, conflict-free way, while avoiding the services of a middleman Define the rules and penalties around an agreement in the same way that a traditional contract does, but also automatically enforce those obligations (code is law)

The disconnected nature of un-trusted systems manifests itself in the time required to fully close out transactions 21

Slide 22 -

With blockchains, the future of finance is embedded in business process everywhere. 22 Shipping Trade Finance Insurance Customs Distributor Production Purchase orders proof of demand that unlocks trade finance. Payment for shipping and insurance is automated. Tariff, tax & duty calculations, documents & payments are built into purchase agreements. Payments are automated into the purchase contract and triggered upon delivery.

Slide 23 -

And in every smart thing and industrial asset. 23 Maintenance Automatically detect and purchase repair services Financing Access tied to identity and payments Value of the verified income stream User Fees Billing & payments for rides Fractional Ownership Why own a whole car if you only use part of it?

Slide 24 -

Now you have a platform with applications that run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud or third party interference capable of executing smart contracts. What do we do next? Let’s check out some DAPPS.

IoT Markets Machines can be customers in machine-to-machine markets. Utilities, data storage, data usage, XaaS services, and APIs are all services that usually offer rate limits or subscription models because charging on a per-use basis is infeasible. With µRaiden, per-use charging finally becomes possible. Pay-per-Use Micropayments are becoming an increasingly attractive alternative to intrusive advertisement and subscription walls. µRaiden gives users the option to decide on a pay-per-use basis whether they would rather endure ads or pay for a premium experience. Customers would not need to engage in the commitment of a monthly subscription model.

Smart contract based trading solutions Turbine is powered off at AEP plant, causing an energy shortage Traders determine pricing for power and shortage is covered Instead, use smart contracts to define pricing before an outage event When the outage event occurs, the smart contract executes with the agreed upon terms

Slide 44 -

In a deregulated market, electricity retailers buy electricity at wholesale price (in 1 MWh increments) and then package and sell that electricity directly to consumers Retailers are not responsible for powering customers directly, but are responsible for metering and billing usage In addition to paying for generation, transmission, and distribution, end users also pay fees to their retailer These costs are largely comprised of marketing, administration, and managing risk/compliance for bad debts and customer funds This can (and often does) add up to quite a large percentage, as shown by the average price of electricity in various states in the following graph:

Grid+ is not interested in managing user funds or in settling bad debts Users prepay each month in dollars, which is tokenized on Ethereum as a dollar-backed stable coin As a retailer, they have access to customers’ usage data, which gets updated every 15 minutes Every 15 minutes they query a customer’s agent (which can be any device capable of making ECDSA signatures) for payment The agent signs a message sending a small amount of money over a state channel and Grid+ takes a small fee from that transaction as a form of revenue

Slide 47 -

gridSMART and AEP Energy Credits Tokenize user funds as a dollar backed stable coin Customers pre-pay or link bank account to convert USD to AEP energy credits gridSMART reads customer data every 15 minutes, deducting energy credits from customer wallets Users are able to monitor their energy usage in 15 minute increments, allowing greater visibility of energy usage AEP is insulated from bad debts and high-risk users through pre-pay model App teams are able to share data with ease using the distributed database model Credits
