Tide’s Decentralized-Automated-Trustee allows for automated server-side delegation of cryptography in a trustless environment. Together with TSS it demonstrates the first use case of keyless-algo-trading on decentralized exchanges.

G'day mates

We've developed this radical, new, trustless privacy-protection solution for sensitive personal data on a global scale – which is great but that's not my point. As part of this, we had to address the painful usability problem of blockchain-based products – all the messing around with crypto-wallets, private key protection, mnemonics, etc. We ended up with a solution that looks and feels like your everyday web experience – but with the kickass security of crypto. We believe addressing the UX problem this way will break one of the biggest mass-adoption barriers of any blockchain-based consumer product. And we've got something even my meemaw can use.

Best part is: the whole damn thing is completely unhackable.

UNHACKABLE, I SAY!!!

Or not… That's what we need help to find out. Oh, did I mention we’re a not-for-profit, open source, community-driven project? When we get this right, it’s a win for all (hence bitcoin dev&tech... etc).

So! We put our money on the line and our balls where our mouth is and placed a shiny little bitcoin behind this protection. Whoever breaks the protection will see the private key – no question asked. Well, it’ll be great if you can tell us how you did it, but you don’t have to.

Many more details to follow (github✔️, designs✔️, whitepaper✔️...), but tell us what you need to have a crack. We’re a small team, so we don’t have it all laid out for you in advance – ask and you shall receive! Except the btc. Don’t ask for the btc. Or the password. Find it yourself, you lazy duck!

(Yeah, we ditched the SSL intentionally! We did everything to make it as exposed as possible. Exploit it!)

Update:
A word about the operational environment: this is a pure proof-of-concept environment aimed at showcasing the novel concept and engaging with the community to scrutinize and perfect it. The Tide Protocol itself is more than a year away from going live. Once live, anyone will be able to download, compile, host and run the nodes anywhere (public cloud or not) and join the Tide decentralized network. To clarify even further: this is not the Mainnet environment. Not even a Testnet.
