信息哲学视域下区块链技术的本体论问题研究

Research on Ontological Problems of Blockchain Technology in the Perspective of Information Philosophy

区块链技术重新塑造了信息的本质,特别是体现和重塑了自在信息、自为信息和再生信息的理论内涵。作为自在信息的区块链,信息场与信息存在同化异化现象。作为自为信息的区块链存在着感知、记忆和进化机制,区块链网络的共识层和激励层均体现了自为信息的特性。其节点的感知、记忆以及激励机制共同构成了一个自主、独立且具有主观性的信息系统,体现了自为信息的主观性、记忆和进化的特性。作为再生信息的区块链无论是从概象信息的角度看,还是从符号信息的角度看,区块链技术都符合信息哲学本体论的再生信息的特性,既有形象化的思维过程,也有符号信息的逻辑推演。区块链作为一种处理信息的信息不仅提供了一种全新的信息处理方式,也创造了新的数字存在形式和新的现实形式。

Blockchain technology has reshaped the nature of information,especially in embodying and reshaping the theoretical connotations of in-itself information,for-itself information and regenerated information.As a blockchain of in-itself information,assimilation and alienation exist between information field and information.There are perception,memory and evolution mechanisms in the for-itself information blockchain,and the consensus layer and the incentive layer of the blockchain network all reflect the characteristics of for-itself information.Meanwhile,the perception,memory and incentive mechanism of the nodes in the for-itself information blockchain together constitute an autonomous,independent and subjective information system,which embodies the subjectivity,memory and evolution of for-itself information.Viewed from the perspectives of conceptual information or symbolic information,blockchain technology of the regenerated information blockchain conforms to the characteristics of regenerated information in the ontology of information philosophy,which presents both visual thinking process and logical deduction of symbolic information.Blockchain as a kind of information processing information not only provides a new approach for information processing but also creates new forms of digital existence and new forms of reality.
