The Framework for Scaling Decentralized Applications
Menlo One is an open-source framework for making decentralized applications as fast and easy to use as their centralized predecessors. Blockchain data is cached and indexed on high performance “content nodes” which give dApps the speed users expect from the web, without compromising decentralization.

Menlo One is a second layer which uses multiple blockchains synergistically to overcome the limitations around user experience, speed, and security, which have stunted widespread adoption of dApps. It leverages a Proof-of-Reputation system which solves issues around identity and governance. With Menlo One, developers can build the Web 3.0 generation of marketplaces, social media platforms, DAOs, financial products, and other dApps that everyone has been anticipating.

Check out the Whitepaper from the Bitcoin Cash fork named Bitcoin Satoshi’s Vision (Bitcoin SV) below:

Abstract
A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending. We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network. The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they’ll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone.

Although all human beings are susceptible to diseases, we continuously repeat the process of recovering our health through medical treatments. However, some patients suffer from incurable diseases whose etiologies are uncertain, exact diagnoses are difficult, and as a result, complete recovery is not possible. These incurable diseases include chronic diseases contracted by a large number of patients but with no complete cure and the need for lifelong management, such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and cancer, in addition to rare and incurable diseases contracted by a small number of patients with a relatively small volume of epidemics data.

Chronic diseases are becoming a global challenge due to rapidly-progressing population aging, decline in physical activity and lifestyle changes such as increased intake of fat and beverages [1]. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), chronic diseases are the leading causes of deaths worldwide. As of 2015, 40 million out of 56 million deaths were caused by chronic diseases, and in addition, 1.7 million patients were predicted to die before the age of 70. Moreover, more than one third of the world’s population simultaneously suffer from multiple chronic conditions, which constitutes significant threats to patients’ health and imposes enormous costs on society. Specifically, medical costs in patients with multiple chronic diseases have been shown to increase by around 80 percent up to 300 percent, depending on age, gender and health conditions. Meanwhile, “rare and incurable diseases” are defined differently in each country, but generally refer to diseases for which the exact number of patients are unknown because of their small number of patients and difficulty of diagnosis [2]. As of 2016, the number of rare diseases registered on Orphanet, a portal for rare diseases, amounted to 6,084 and the worldwide population with rare diseases is estimated at 350 million. In Korea, the total number of rare diseases is estimated at around 2,000 and the affected population is calculated at 600,000 [3].

It is characteristic of incurable diseases that their symptoms are controllable by medication, lifestyle changes, operations, etc. but it is not possible to eradicate or treat the underlying causes. Although early diagnosis may allow the early completion of treatment, these diseases cause suffering to patients and their families due to the inadequacy of knowledge on the diseases, insufficient research development and support, and the consequent lack of awareness toward the need for self-care.

The intent of EtherInc is to create an alternative protocol for running decentralized organizations and building decentralized applications, providing a different set of trade-offs that we believe will be very useful for a large class of decentralized applications, with particular emphasis on situations where rapid development time, security for small and rarely used applications, and the ability of different applications to very efficiently interact, are important. EtherInc does this by building what is essentially the ultimate abstract foundational layer: a Blockchain with a built-in Turing-complete programming language​, allowing anyone to write smart contracts and decentralized applications where they can create their own arbitrary rules for ownership, transaction formats, and state transition functions. A bare-bones version of Namecoin can be developed by writing two lines of code, and other protocols like currencies and reputation systems can be built in under twenty.

Smart contracts, cryptographic “boxes” that contain value and unlock only if certain conditions are met, can also be built on top of the platform, with more power than that offered by Bitcoin scripting because of the added powers of Turing-completeness, value-awareness, Blockchain-awareness, and state.

This white paper describes the Optimal Shelf Availability Decentralized Platform, also known as OSA DC. As a standard term in the retail industry, optimal shelf availability refers to the immediate availability of all the relevant goods on a retailer’s shelves at any moment in time. An airtight OSA is crucial to increasing sales volume and profitability, customer satisfaction, and the overall efficiency of a retail business. The OSA DC platform itself is a business project, developed by a team distributed between Russia, Ukraine, the United States, and Israel. It uses data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and optical recognition technologies to improve optimal shelf availability for retailers and like businesses.

In this section of the white paper, we introduce OSA DC’s business concept and the problems it’s looking to solve within the retail industry and supply chain markets. In addition, we outline our customer base, existing competition, and our sources of inspiration. We’ll conclude by describing our product’s developmental progress and our current achievements, finally summarizing these details with our product roadmap for 2018/2019.

Blockchain technology is considered to be the Ɖfth most likely technology which will lead to disruptive revolution in productivity and production relations, following the steam engine, power, information technology and Internet. Since creation of Blockchain technology represented by Bitcoin in 2009, this technology has made great progress and received more and more attention. Especially in recent years,
Blockchain technology has become global focus.

From core technologies to chain applications, comprehensive explorations have been carried out for Blockchain. However, as far as current Blockchain technology is concerned, there is a big gap between chain technology and various applications. Especially, there are many technical diƋculties around Blockchain core technologies, which need breakthrough. At present, the infrastructure to support
development of Blockchain applications is unstable, thus many applications are not eƈective. Therefore, it is urgent to make research and development on Blockchain infrastructure, thus providing reliable support for various Blockchain applications, as well as promoting implementation of Blockchain applications in all kinds of industries, which makes Blockchain serve human beings faster and better.
We propose a infrastructure for global value-internet, InterValue. It aims to solve the problems such as low applicability, transaction congestion, high commissions, long conƉrmation latency, weak resistance to quantum attacks, poor anonymity in communication and transaction, incapability in crossing and merging chains, large space for storage and etc. InterValue would optimize and improve
Blockchain technology in all aspects including protocols and mechanisms, and become a genuine infrastructure of Blockchain 4.0. Also, InterValue would provide a platform for developing various DApps (distributed Apps), as well as feasible solutions to construct a global value-internet.

Abstract

Today’s blockchain encounters the following challenges: scalability and interoperability etc. To address these challenges, we propose PalletOne, Protocol for Abstract-Level Ledger Ecosystem.

PalletOne adopts Jury consensus mechanism which combines the whole network consensus and part consensus to ensure the efficiency and safety of cross-chain smart contract execution. Besides, Contract Template and Token Abstract Layer are introduced to decrease the difficulty and complexity of contract development.

PalletOne makes inter-chain transactions possible by decoupling the state of contracts from the blockchains. Developers can choose the language they are familiar with and the platform they need. PalletOne interacts with mainstream underlying blockchains and accomplishes interchain interaction.

In PalletOne, we only need a group of verifiers to execute one contract. This group of verifiers is called Jury, which consists of individual verifiers called Jurors. Similar to the IP protocol that separates the physical layer, data link layer from transport layer and application layer, the PalletOne fully decouples the Dapp, contract status, and underlying blockchain three-tier architecture.

PalletOne contract supports multiple blockchains. Through Jury Consensus and Adaptor Layer, it is possible to build a contract that can interact with different blockchains simultaneously, so users can trade tokens from different blockchains in one PalletOne contract invocation to make the inter-chain token exchange distributed, atomic, and immutable. The PalletOne contracts of inter-chain token exchange can be executed in a multi-tasking way by different groups of selected Jury, which can effectively reduce the congestion of the whole network compared with consensus throughout the whole network. We plan to use PalletOne VM as the core technology to build the contract executable and execute the contracts, which makes the contract execution more secure and developers can choose the language they are familiar with and the platform they need. Token Abstract Layer and Contract Template ensure the convenience and security of Dapp development further.

MicroMines (MICRO) is an ERC-20 token based on Ethereum Blockchain, enabling users to exchange value securely, quickly, and without the expense. MICRO is developing its own ERC-20 Decentralised Exchange (DEX), which allows users across the globe to trade cryptocurrencies. Enabling them to own their private keys in order to have full control over their digital assets, MICRO Exchange users will enjoy a secure environment for trading cryptocurrencies as well as a high level of privacy. Without having to reveal any personal information, MICRO Exchange will never ask its users to submit any forms of verification such as Passport, Driving License, or Bank Statements. Thus, trading on MICRO Exchange will be completely private.MICRO Exchange will mainly have MICRO Pairs in addition to Ether. Moreover, trading fees are reduced if paid with MICRO as well as the token listing fees.Finally, MICRO Exchange is operating right in the Asian market, which is dominating the cryptocurrency industry with 38% of users globally compared to 27% in Europe and 17% in North America.
