What is a Blockchain? Global View
Business LegalTechnical
All-in-one system that unlocks immense value -
value exchange, database, validation mechanism
What is a Blockchain? Component View
Database EncryptionConsensus
What Is a Blockchain? Feature View
Decentralized Asset
Autonomy
Immutable
A pragmatic definition that allows for an expanded opportunity
surface and blue ocean thinking
The First Use Case for Blockchain
Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, that uses the underlying characteristics
of blockchain to issue a digital currency
= Blockchain
Bitcoin is an implementation
of the technology
Blockchain is the core
technology
Blockchain Disrupts Centralized Parties
Trusted Third Parties • Shared Single Source of Truth
• Conducted via consensus rules
• Enforced with transparency
Centralized Blockchain Model
Centralized to Decentralized
Strengths:
1. Lower coordination overhead
2. Efficient
Weaknesses:
1. Centralized power
2. Silos
3. Hackable
Centralized Model Decentralized
Centralized to Decentralized
Strengths:
1. Real-time Processing
2. Hack-resistant
3. Asset autonomy
Weaknesses:
1. Performance & Scalability
2. Governance & Security
Blockchain technology allows
The Digitization of Value
• Next wave of digitization
• Weave into the fabric of our society
• Larger than the internet
The Internet Drove the Digitization of Information
Knowledge freely shareable for the world
spawned billion dollar companies:
- Amazon
- Google
- Facebook
Gave voice to the powerless
Connected the powerful
The blockchain is a truly open, distributed, global platform that fundamentally
changes what we can do online, how we do it, and who can participate.
Call it the world wide ledger.
The Internet of Everything needs a Ledger of Everything.

Own your private data, intellectual property,

reliance on others to secure it.

Why Blockchain Matters to Big Data - Big Data London Meetup - Nov 3, 2016
A scalable blockchain database for the decentralized enterprise
Anatomy of a Diamond Fraud
Proof-of-Concept
January 2016
Case Study: The Diamond Supply Chain
30
• Conducted 6 week Proof-of-Concept
• Entered 1 Mio diamonds into BigchainDB from multiple data sources – Certification Labs, pricing
services, and marketplaces
• Developed custom analytics and machine learning tools to understand and assess the data
How much fraud is there on a major diamond marketplace?
Conclusion: 7% of all listings have RED flags and are most likely fraudulent.
This works out $750 Million per year of fraud on a single marketplace
What is Diamond Fraud?
How Detect Fraud?
Let’s Scrape for Data
Anatomy of a Diamond Fraud

Why Blockchain Matters to Big Data - Big Data London Meetup - Nov 3, 2016
Anatomy of a Diamond Fraud
36
• Diamond listing identified
• Three fraud indicators are found:
1. Offer price is suspiciously low
2. Is the Certification Lab
trustworthy?
3. “Appraisal” value serves as a
mental anchor to convince buyers
that they’re getting a deal
Anatomy of a Diamond Fraud
37
• Ascribe’s GemInSights is a backend prototype
to monitor and track diamonds entering the
supply chain – with a Rating scorecard that flags
suspicious diamonds
• Findings - RED Flags:
1. DGI lab
• Online Diamond ID Lookup
function finds no diamond
correlating to cert# on listing
• No sample certificates to show
buyers authentic certificates
2. Price Estimator
• List price is 70% less than
expected based on analytics it’s
“too good to be true”
3. Related Sightings
• Exact same listing has shown up
multiple occasions – once stored
in BigchainDB, it’s immutable

- Erik Brynjolfsson
Electricity is an example of a general
purpose technology, like the steam
engine before it. General purpose
technologies drive most economic
growth, because they unleash cascades
of complementary innovations, like
lightbulbs and, yes, factory redesign.

  • 30. Case Study: The Diamond Supply Chain 30 • Conducted 6 week Proof-of-Concept • Entered 1 Mio diamonds into BigchainDB from multiple data sources – Certification Labs, pricing services, and marketplaces • Developed custom analytics and machine learning tools to understand and assess the data How much fraud is there on a major diamond marketplace? Conclusion: 7% of all listings have RED flags and are most likely fraudulent. This works out $750 Million per year of fraud on a single marketplace

Anatomy of a Diamond Fraud 37 • Ascribe’s GemInSights is a backend prototype to monitor and track diamonds entering the supply chain – with a Rating scorecard that flags suspicious diamonds • Findings - RED Flags: 1. DGI lab • Online Diamond ID Lookup function finds no diamond correlating to cert# on listing • No sample certificates to show buyers authentic certificates 2. Price Estimator • List price is 70% less than expected based on analytics it’s “too good to be true” 3. Related Sightings • Exact same listing has shown up multiple occasions – once stored in BigchainDB, it’s immutable
