Symbol of Registration Revolution

Site could be considered as a symbol of the Internet. Combining an unique Internet address (URL, IP) with texts, pictures, services and entertainment.

I propose to consider the purse (e.g, Ethereum Wallet) as a symbol of a rapidly renewing Network.

With a unique network address, but also and money, relations, contracts, property, reputation ...

Purse with reputation - an artistic image of the owner of a new world - the world of era of registration revolution.

Pessimists would be upset, optimists would be inspired, but they all would be impressed by the artistic image, I hope. J

Name

Initially, the text was devoted blockchain. However, I soon realized that the most important element of novelty in blockchain is a publicly accessible history of transactions that nearly impossible to forge - in other words, registration of transactions that nearly impossible to forge.

In reality it is a beginning of the fourth revolution of the cost - after transport, industrial and information revolutions.

This fourth revolution of the cost, I propose to call the registration revolution. This name more accurately reflects the essence of the matter than, for example, the "revolution of trust" - it revolutionized of the institution and the cost of socially significant registration, rather than, say, the institution or the cost of socially significant confidence.

Axioms of registration revolution

Registration of facts (transactions) becomes:

almost eternal
open (public)
impossible to forge

Registration of facts (transactions) service becomes:

automatic
open
independent
decentralized
public

Important part of the content of the facts (transactions) remains private

Related innovative concepts

Smart contracts

Perspectively
The main question - the reliability of programming of the contracts
The level of results depends on the development of culture and programming tools, especially in the tools that guarantee the quality of software products

Internet of Things and Internet of Everything

The same as for the smart contracts, but taking into account the problems of embedded systems

Effect of registration revolution

Local institutions and registration services are not in demand
Criminal activities associated solely with the registration, loses its meaning
Professions associated exclusively with the registration services are no longer needed
The legislation regulating the registration, fundamentally changing
Public relations do not become easier or better - they get other

including the fact that the technical platform provided with infrastructure self communities, built on a non-trivial basic values

the balance of which is clearly represented by the respective programms-contracts – by analogs of social laws

publicly available history of all transactions, which can’t be corrected - awareness, objectivity, responsibility
the impossibility of forgery - honesty
decentralization - freedom
diversification (multiple duplication in independent nodes) - indestructibility, religiosity (a planning horizon)
reputation - responsibility
a clear separation of public and private, supplemented fundamental inability to violate privacy - clarity and simplicity
developed a software interface to create add-ins at any level - flexibility, versatility, multifunctionality
code transparency - a promising concept of intellectual value, the base and guarantee the development of innovative, independent evaluation and quality control

Implications for programming

The role of programming in general, especially programming culture "smart contracts" will grow
It requires an updated culture of profession programmer as a whole
Programming quality, reliability in the first place, must be ensured by the means (including languages) programming, and by programming culture, and by programming-related laws, licenses (no as is!)
