A deep dive into Holochain - what some are calling an evolution on blockchain technology, operating "in parallel to BitTorrent to power fully distributed apps"
The goal of bringing basic, decentralised payments to the masses remains outstanding due to Hard scaling problems. These problems are rooted in the mechanics of consensus algorithms and fundamental limits in our ability to shuttle data around a global network.
Promether marks the end of surveillance and brings about a new era of online privacy,security, and anonymity. By merging blockchain technology, decentralized networks, and state-of-the-art encryption, Promether gives power and control back to the users.
Ceptr is organized as a do-ocracy -- meaning that we want to empower those who will step forward to take action. Unlike a meritocracy which is based on the merit of one's past performance, a do-ocracy is based on empowering those who commit to "DO" things.
Welcome to the Holochain developer portal. Holochain is a tool for creating and running distributed applications. This site is for people who have a general understanding of what Holochain is, and what to use it for, and would like to know how to build a Holochain application.
Holochain is a framework for writing fully distributed peer-to-peer applications. It is not based on blockchain technology. Nor is Holochain a single platform like Ethereum. It is rather like a decentralized Ruby on Rails, a toolkit that produces stand-alone programs but for serverless high-profile applications. Different from blockchain alternatives and as shown in this benchmark (based on the Holochain prototype), it actually works and performs better than Ethereum by several orders of magnitude.

Holochain enables a distributed web with user autonomy built directly into its architecture and protocols. Data is about remembering our lived and shared experiences. Distributing the storage and processing of that data can change how we coordinate and interact. With digital integration under user control, Holochain liberates our online lives from corporate control over our choices and information.

In Hashgraph, you can see how different agents are each building a different “reality.” Then they use some metadata about each agent’s state to enable them to build consensus based on gossip.
Holochain is not really like anything I've seen before, so this code review won't be quite like anything you've read from me before. The Holodchain scalable distributed computing model seems to be taking decentralization to a new level, but bloody hell, is this thing just too good to be true?
