At the 2024 Global Digital Business Conference held in Shanghai, the National Blockchain Technology Innovation Center released the "National Open Blockchain Network Technology White Paper", which systematically proposed the design ideas of the national open blockchain network, the key technical capabilities of independent innovation, and the open source and open collaboration system. The white paper believes that facing the complex and major scenarios such as global trade, finance, and supply chain, and facing the blockchain application needs of ultra-large scale, ultra-high efficiency, and ultra-strong security, the establishment of an ultra-large-scale blockchain network to achieve efficient cross-regional and cross-subject data collaboration is becoming a new global trend. The national open blockchain network uses blockchain and privacy computing, zero-knowledge proof and other fusion technologies to design and build a high-performance and high-reliability network architecture to ensure efficient, fast, and secure data transmission and collaboration. It can support seamless connection of various application scenarios by distributing computing power across the entire network, allowing more high-value data resources to be safely shared and efficiently used in the form of "available but invisible", thereby fully releasing the advanced productivity of high-value data in a large number of key scenarios such as trade, finance, and energy. It can also build an open and shared blockchain ecosystem, which will help promote the development of the next generation of the Internet.
