Unification welcomes new strategic advisors

Unification publishes revised whitepaper
As Unification grows into our next phase, we felt it was important that supporters of our project had access to an even deeper technical understanding of our project.

To forward this goal, we decided to reissue our whitepaper with enhanced technical specifications, including detailed descriptions of precisely how HAIKU, our C++-based smart contract protocol, operates.

Unification’s revised whitepaper is available for download on our website Unification.com/Foundation/

Beta testing of CAPSULE launches

After significant development work on CAPSULE, Unification’s proprietary SDK, the team at the Unification Foundation lauched a highly selective beta test, designed to support a small number of apps handpicked to build on top of the Unification platform.

CAPSULE is an SDK installed on both the client side and the server side that allows an enterprise’s data sets to be accessed, bought, and sold cross-chain and cross-industry.

Applications for beta testing are now being accepted. Please fill out the form here to be considered for a spot.

New partners begin building on top of Unification

This month, Unification secured partnerships with multiple enterprises who have chosen to build their applications on top of Unification’s platform.

Unification is excited to announce our partnership with Hintchain, a protocol that connects users and companies using blockchain technology to create robust food profiles. Unification provides the platform for Hintchain to seamlessly plug its existing user base into blockchain.

Also announced this month was our new partnership with BLABBER, the first location-based and reward-driven social platform that allows users to monetize their content and personal data.

As BLABBER’s CEO Michael Freund stated in their press release about the partnership, “We practically waited for a technology partner like Unification to embark on a proven Smart Contract technology that fits in our existing application.”

Several more enterprise partnerships will be announced in the coming months. Stay tuned for articles detailing our new initiatives in September.

Coming up in September

These strategic advisors are already lending their perspectives to the project and helping to share the direction that Unification is heading in the future. We look forward to introducing them to our community in September.

Additional partnerships to be announced
Unification’s enterprise partnership team has been busy working with potential partners to help them assess the viability of onboarding their user bases onto Unification’s platforms. Many of these talks have been highly productive, and our supporters can expect to see the announcement of several new enterprise partnerships during September.

Continued focus on development
Within the Unification team, development of the product continues to be the top priority. Our development team is focused on beta testing CAPSULE, our proprietary SDK, as well as releasing new versions of the HAIKU Server Node.

Announcing the first round of private token sales for Unification

Hello everybody, I'm excited to announce that Unification is beginning it's first round of private token sales for UND Tokens for use of the Unification data ecosystem.

Unification is a decoupled architectural framework that provides generalized state channels for data standardization and interoperability across enterprise tech stacks.

What this means is, we allow existing apps, websites, researchers, and users to open and close standardized data streams through state channels, efficiently and safely. Through a simple SDK and Smart Contract system, existing enterprises can become integrated into our unified ecosystem.

A unified data ecosystem benefits everyone:
-Businesses can efficiently open direct state channels with any actor in the network, quickly and safely sharing and cross-referencing standardized data.
-Smaller apps have access to an open marketplace to buy and sell standardized data. Currently no cross-industry standardization exists, and no transparent marketplace accessible to all.
-Businesses can add a crypto payment gateway and unified user control panel without rewriting their app or website.
- Advertisers get more accurate user preferences that were ethically obtained. Information is decoupled from a user identity,
-Researchers gain access to large amounts of cross-referenced data to make discoveries.
-Researchers can directly outsource trial patients, which  currently can cost between 10-50 thousand dollars to find.
-Users have a full control of how their data is used and shared, with a full overview and user friendly controls, and can be compensated for sharing. With access permissions all backed by the blockchain.


Our product provides an all-in-one software suite for utilizing blockchain technology for data standardization, liquidity, and interoperability:

-HAIKU is a deployable smart contract runtime that supports rapid off-chain state transition and data transfer protocols. This is off-chain data standardization, and on-chain data access permissions.
-CAPSULE - Providing a client and server side packaging suite, CAPSULE enables and secures off chain storage, thus allowing a vast reduction in operating costs and increase in speed solutions. This is the an easily integrated software package to minimize software rewriting.
-MOTHER is a handshake verification smart contract that ensures technical compliance while providing an autonomous proof and validation for the participants in the system. It verifies all actors in the system, and approves smart contracts.
-BABEL is Unification’s mobile and desktop dashboard for the end consumer. It is designed to act as a wallet, identity center, and data clearinghouse where individual users can visualize and manage the permissioned flow of their data.
-UVCID - Unification’s Unified Verifiable Credentials Identification system is built to allow the most comprehensive balance of data portability & sovereignty for identification systems.
-AMLSC - Autonomous Machine Learnable Smart Contracts (AMLSC) are the next generation of Smart Contracts, enabling autonomy with consideration of the intent of all contract participants to find the most efficient match and create the highest economic value for all parties in online real life scenarios
This parallels bringing autonomous matching algorithms that currently exist in centralized markets such as financial exchanges to all online service providers as well as real life business processes such as the sharing & service economies.
