Nano, a low-latency cryptocurrency built on an innovative block-lattice data structure offering unlimited scalability and no transaction fees. Nano by design is a simple protocol with the sole purpose of being a high-performance cryptocurrency. The Nano protocol can run on low-power hardware, allowing it to be a practical, decentralized cryptocurrency for everyday use. The original Nano (RailBlocks) paper and first beta implementation were published in December, 2014, making it one of the first Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) based cryptocurrencies [6]. Soon after, other DAG cryptocurrencies began to develop, most notably DagCoin/Byteball and IOTA. These DAG-based cryptocurrencies broke the blockchain mold, improving system performance and security. Byteball achieves consensus by relying on a “main-chain” comprised of honest, reputable and user-trusted “witnesses”, while IOTA achieves consensus via the cumulative PoW of stacked transactions. Nano achieves consensus via a balance-weighted vote on conflicting transactions. This consensus system provides quicker, more deterministic transactions while still maintaining a strong, decentralized system. Nano continues this development and has positioned itself as one of the highest performing cryptocurrencies. Nano is a trustless, feeless, low-latency cryptocurrency that utilizes a novel blocklattice structure and delegated Proof of Stake voting. The network requires minimal resources, no high-power mining hardware, and can process high transaction throughput. All of this is achieved by having individual blockchains for each account, eliminating access issues and inefficiencies of a global data-structure. We identified possible attack vectors on the system and presented arguments on how Nano is resistant to these forms of attacks. Check out CoinBureau for the complete review of Nano.
Our world is composed of a myriad of communities from the individual to a family community to larger communities of the workplace and society. From now on, these communities will be connected through decentralized blockchains and these blockchains will be closely linked to another community’s blockchains, ultimately forming an ecosystem. The Davinci Project enables everyone to use a highly efficient, fast, secure and simplified payment system among nations while also minimizing the complexity of financial and accounting verifications. Also, a strengthening global trade and investment system has collapsed the boundaries of national currencies. Moreover, the credit information of foreign companies will be transparently managed. In addition, the distributed networks will have tightened security and reduced costs. Surplus resources will be shared. The transaction histories of real estate will be digitized and will also be managed transparently. The Davinci Project will be the foundation for industries such as voting, prediction systems, firearm security, human resources, insurance companies, Internet of Things (IoT), energy, education, donations, and so on. The Davinci Project was created to construct an ecosystem that encompasses cultural, artistic and other various fields, while linking domestic and international exchanges in the network from the private sector.
