In practice, using cryptocurrencies without identity means that the costs of identification are externalized to third-parties and, worse yet, repeated and incurred multiple times: KYC/AML to access online exchanges and/or for ICO participation (the cost of a check ranges from…
Most announces of previous blockchains can be classified in the following groups: better hash algorithm (e.g., Litecoin) not using Proof-of-Work (e.g., Peercoin) better scripting/smart contracts (e.g., Ethereum) anonymous (e.g., Zcash, Monero) highly scalable (e.g., Zilliqa) a combination of the previous…
The Holy Grail of Blockchains, or how to build the most scalable, decentralised and secure blockchain, solved in the next publication (bonus: also including identity!).
Current permissionless blockchains are slow, insecure and fail to properly manage the real-world identity of their users. However, our blockchain solves all these problems by pushing the state-of-the-art on cryptographic research. Our identity solution integrates the most diffused identity network…
