Abstract

This paper provides a description of the blockchain that underpins the Bitcoins. This paper provides a new mechanism to reinforce the credibility of online transactions based on blockchain technology. It then becomes possible to explore the future of the blockchain technology in other online electronic markets of goods and services. We assert that the blockchain technology, still linked with the BT, could become in the near future the keystone of many electronic markets and could considerably increase online transactions. A cryptocurrency regime based on sidechain is modelled and a public blockchain controlled by a central is proposed.
