With 5G technology, the scalability problem of blockchain seems to be resolved. Does this will also introduce more vulnerabilities to the blockchain?
It is expected that existing blockchain structure will be expanded with 5G . Does more business on blockchain will bring some loopholes for security?
Dr Raghavender K V .....Like the issue of pseudoanonymity to be traced out and identity can be revealed
It will not be completely free of security vulnerabilities. But, there are various 5G enabling technologies that can be jointly used with the 5G network to ensure security and privacy.
Dear Dr. Ashish Seth,
I don't know what 5G has to do with scaling consensus at the core of a blockchain or distributed ledger. I think, those things are not really related.
Why should 5G add new vulnerabilities to blockchains? I guess you will still communicate with other blockchain via standard (and established) transfer protocols? I am not aware that any established blockchain or distributed ledger technology is tied to a physical network (and it does not make much sense to me).
Thus, I don't see any big impact from 5G on blockchains.
Cheers,
Mike
