Today, we dive into two spaces on the federated social web, look at their history and the players behind them, and talk about their potential futures. [Plus protocols & interoperability.]
In this paper we analyze the mathematical foundations of IOTA, a cryptocurrency for the Internet-of-Things (IoT) industry. The main feature of this novel cryptocurrency is the tangle, a directed acyclic graph (DAG) for storing transactions. The tangle naturally succeeds the blockchain as its next evolutionary step, and offers features that are required to establish a machine-to-machine micropayment system.
The IOTA protocol is a Distributed Ledger Technology developed by the IOTA Foundation. It is a next-generation technology designed from the ground up to be the data and value transfer layer for the Machine Economy.
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.
Ceptr is a platform for next-gen networking, providing a protocol for pluggable protocols, distributed data integrity on Holochains, and truly distributed application hosting
