Hanseatic区块链研究所发表了一项有关德国经济中的区块链作为技术的全面研究。

该研究概述了当前采用水平，机会和优势以及使收养困难的障碍。

The Hanseatic Blockchain Institute has published a study on blockchain as a technology in the German economy. The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection funded the research and, therefore, has a policy-oriented view.

Hanseatic区块链研究所发表了一项有关德国经济中的区块链作为技术的研究。联邦经济事务和气候保护部资助了研究，因此具有面向政策的观点。

The study provides a comprehensive overview of the current level of adoption, opportunities and advantages, and obstacles that make adoption difficult. However, it has a major blind spot, which arises from the fact that companies that do not use blockchain or are planning or discussing its use were not surveyed in more detail, so the study mainly captures the perspective of the proponents and actors of blockchain technology, as the study organizers state themselves. Thus, the study misses key insights from failed attempts or discussions resulting in not implementing blockchain.

该研究概述了当前采用水平，机会和优势以及使收养困难的障碍。但是，它具有一个主要的盲点，这是由于不使用区块链或正在计划或讨论其使用的公司而不是更详细地进行调查，因此该研究主要捕捉了区块链技术的支持者和参与者的观点，正如研究组织者所说的那样。因此，该研究错过了失败的尝试或讨论导致没有实施区块链的关键见解。

Economic survey

经济调查

The study states that the majority of German companies do not consider blockchain relevant. The representative part of the 2024 survey finds that only 3.2% of the German economy will use blockchain in some form, another 3.7% are planning to use it, and 18.7% have at least discussed it. The technology is used significantly less than comparable emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), which is deployed by 27%, or cloud computing, utilized by 46.5% of companies.

研究指出，大多数德国公司不认为区块链相关。 2024年调查的代表部分发现，只有3.2％的德国经济将以某种形式使用区块链，另有3.7％的人计划使用它，而18.7％的人至少已经讨论了它。该技术的使用远低于可比较的新兴技术（例如人工智能（AI）），该技术由27％部署，或由46.5％的公司使用的云计算。

The study notes that blockchain is only slowly gaining ground in Germany, with the vast majority of its states saying it is “not an issue” for them. Meanwhile, the percentage of local companies that shared the same sentiments in 2023 has increased slightly from 72.6% to 74.4%. Unfortunately, the study does not delve any deeper into this.

该研究指出，区块链只在德国慢慢发展，其中绝大多数州都说这不是对他们来说“不是问题”。同时，在2023年共享相同观点的本地公司的百分比从72.6％略有增加到74.4％。不幸的是，这项研究并没有深入研究这一点。

How is blockchain used: Potential and challenge

区块链如何使用：潜力和挑战

The next part of the study is a quantitative expert survey that asked 204 experts how they use blockchain in their companies. These most frequently come from the IT & telecommunications industry (31%), the financial services sector (21%), and 15% from consulting. Other fields are media & entertainment (6%), education (5%), arts & culture 4%, and marketing & sales. Other industries only reached 1% or are not represented.

该研究的下一部分是一项定量专家调查，询问204位专家如何在公司中使用区块链。这些最常来自IT与电信行业（31％），金融服务业（21％），咨询15％。其他领域是媒体与娱乐（6％），教育（5％），艺术与文化4％以及营销与销售。其他行业仅达到1％或没有代表。

The respondents also stated in which area they use blockchain, with financial services 54%, digital identities (31%), and marketing (28%) being the most frequently mentioned fields.

受访者还指出，他们在哪个领域使用区块链，金融服务为54％，数字身份（31％）和营销（28％）是最常提到的领域。

The respondents gave their opinion on the potential they see in blockchain. The highest hits were promoting innovation (84%), information security (82%), trust in cooperation with other organizations (81%), security in cross-company processes (78%), and improving products (66%).

受访者对他们在区块链中看到的潜力发表了意见。最高的热门歌曲是促进创新（84％），信息安全性（82％），与其他组织合作（81％），跨公司的安全性（78％）和改善产品（66％）。

The biggest challenges were regulation (36%), poor user experience (33%), lack of skilled workers (32%) and critical reporting (31%).

最大的挑战是法规（36％），用户经验差（33％），缺乏熟练工人（32％）和关键报告（31％）。

What technologies are used

使用了哪些技术

With the insight into the technologies used, the study becomes a little more concrete and sheds light on how Bitcoin, smart contracts, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and tokenization are used and for what reasons.

有了对所使用的技术的洞察力，该研究变得更加具体，并阐明了比特币，智能合约，无牙代币（NFTS）（NFTS）和令牌化如何使用以及出于什么原因使用。

BTC

BTC is used by 32% of the companies surveyed, primarily in the financial sector, where 50% of respondents use it. The main use case is self-investment (57%), followed by means of payment for customers (49%), trading (41%), means of payment to contractual partners (41%), lightning for payment purposes (32%), pseudo-anonymous transactions (16%) and mining (5%).

BTC由32％的调查公司（主要是在金融部门）使用，其中50％的受访者使用它。主要用例是自我投资（57％），其次是客户付款（49％），交易（41％），向合同伙伴支付付款方式（41％​​），用于付款目的的闪电（32％），伪匿名交易（16％）和矿业（5％）。

That may sound very positive for a BTC Maxi, but the base n for the types of use is only 37. This means only a small fraction of the minority in the German economy reportedly uses BTC, although the word “use” should also be put in quotation marks. Most enterprises use it as an investment, and the mere offer as a means of payment says nothing about how much BTC is actually used by customers, contractual partners, etc. The actual innovation comes anyway from other technologies.

对于BTC的最大值，这听起来可能非常积极，但是使用类型的基础n仅为37。据报道，这仅意味着德国经济中少数群体的一小部分使用BTC，尽管“使用”一词也应以报价标记为单词。大多数企业将其用作投资，而仅提供的付款方式对客户，合同合作伙伴等实际使用了多少BTC。实际创新来自其他技术。

Smart contracts

智能合约

The most commonly used blockchain technology is smart contracts, which 94% of companies use. In the IT/telecommunications sector, the figure is 98%, and in financial services, it is 86%.

最常用的区块链技术是智能合约，其中94％的公司使用。在IT/电信行业中，该数字为98％，在金融服务中为86％。

NFTs (61%), tokenization (56%), and rollups (optimistic, Zero-Knowledge) (27%) are the most common areas of application.

NFT（61％），令牌化（56％）和汇总（乐观，零知识）（27％）是最常见的应用领域。

NFTs and tokenization

NFT和令牌化

The main areas of application for NFTs are marketing (64%), certification (56%), and the art market (45%), with the advantages being highlighted as proof of ownership (91%), linking to digital content (83%) and digital access (71%).

NFT的主要申请领域是营销（64％），认证（56％）和艺术市场（45％），其优势被强调为所有权证明（91％），与数字内容（83％）和数字访问链接（71％）。

When it comes to tokenization, the main areas of application are bonds (46%), collectibles (39%), and real estate (33%), followed by CO₂ certificates (23%), with the advantages being seen in fast processing (85%), transparency and traceability (82%) and access to institutional investors (74%).

在象征化方面，申请的主要领域是债券（46％），收藏品（39％）和房地产（33％），其次是Co₂证书（23％），在快速加工中看到了优势（85％），透明度和traceability和Traceability和Traceability（82％），并获得机构投资者（74％）。
