Brahma OS去中心化操作系统项目评估报告

在区块链应用系统中，分布式账本上的数据具有透明、共享和不可篡改等特性，但是当数据离开了区块链应用，或者当数据在不同的区块链应用之间切换，数据就失去了区块链的特性。这主要的原因是承载着区块链应用的操作系统平台是中心化的。因此，系统操作平台乃至是操作系统的去中心成为诉求。

此时，Brahma OS应时而生。那么Brahma OS是一个怎么样的区块链操作平台？它有什么样的价值？下面将结合项目白皮书进行详细分析。



1、Brahma OS介绍
Brahma OS以广泛使用的手机Android 系统为切入点， 基于以太坊构建了区块链应用的底层架构和完整的生态系统。作为连通终端用户和区块链网络的核心角色，Brahma OS 为用户提供了去中心化的身份认证、网络传输、存储、app store、资产管理和交易等服务功能。Brahma OS具有较好的可扩展性，通过Brahma OS的SDK接口,开发者能够快速扩展去中化服务组件。

Brahma OS战略定位
Brahma OS 的愿景是打造成区块链的移动操作系统。先期将以手机Android 系统为突破点，主要应该是考虑到手机Android 系统在开放性、扩展性和用户普及性比较好。

Brahma OS区块链定位在系统平台类领域，开发难度大，工期较长，但是意义重大，是一项具有革命性的区块链项目。

Brahma OS解决的痛点
解决了数据隐私问题。当个人在使用OS 时，无论是用户有意生成的数据还是无意间操作产生的数据，都是有价值的。 在 Brahma OS 中，隐私问题将从根本上解决，窃取和剥削用户隐私数据的行为将变得难以进行。
解决了网络通讯过程中数据不安全的问题。在 Brahma OS 中，将构建可对等连接的 OS 网络，通过数据传输层的协议混淆确保通信数据的加密和不可识别，另外可在路由器的设定上构建可自治的连通网络。 
解决了传统云存储的数据问题。比如中心化的OS 为用户提供了“云存储”的功能，用户在不同设备只需要登录同一账号便可以访问相同的数据。使用Brahma OS能较好的解决此类问题。
解决了密码管理集中保管的问题。在身份认证方面，当前系统广泛使用类似于google auth、动态口令、智能卡等认证辅助手段，但是这些系统基于中心化管理，如果系统的主密钥被盗将引发整个系统的身份认证失效。而Brahma OS利用区块链提供全面的分布式密码管理。

4、Brahma OS的优势
BrahmaOS 是从平台层和操作系统层面为用户提供了基于区块链的应用服务，这个与瑞波、CVC、IPFS等单个服务或功能不同。在提供数据可信度方面，从平台层面提供区块链服务相对比较彻底。

与传统操作系统不一样，Brahma OS会在用户数据和DappStore集市上引入代币激励，这使得Brahma OS具备价值传递特性，随着使用Brahma OS平台的人越来越多，其代币价值将提升。

5、Brahma OS的竞争环境
区块链操作系统开发难度大，目前还没有相关应用产品落地。现在和Brahma OS同样提出研发区块链操作系统计划书的，也仅仅是极少数几家。因此，Brahma OS市场竞争环境很宽松。

6、Brahma OS的技术实现分析
Brahma OS 使用分层设计逻辑架构，整个系统分为 Chain、Runtime、Framework 等逻辑层。考虑到 Android 原生应用的兼容性问题，将 Virtual Machine 单独进行划分，使得 Android App 和 DApp 的运行环境完全隔离，能增强Android App 安全控制，避免系统崩溃。

从技术实现看，在以太链上发币，建立 BVM环境可以较快实现，不过后期应用场景的接入和与硬件对接上，具有一定的难度。基于此，Brahma 团队对各个阶段制定了详细的里程碑，根据披露，2018年第三季度，将完成Android中心化服务的取代工作，Brahma OS接入以太坊网络，首批测试用户将有幸进行系统原型的体验。完全取代现有手机操作系统估计要四年后才能实现。

风险分析
采用定量和定性结合的IT风险分析方法，定量分析采用如下公式：
SLE = asset value (AV) * exposure factor (EF)
风险点
风险描述
评估结果
政策性风险
可能会存在一定的因政策原因而造成参与者损失的可能性。

高风险
监管风险
如果监管主体对该领域进行规范管理，互换时期所购买的代币可能会受到影响 。
高风险
市场风险
若数字资产市场整体的价值被高估，则投资风险将有可能加大 。
中风险
代币销售市场风险
若市场行情整体低靡，或因其他不可控因素的影响，则可能造成代币价格长期处于
被低估的状态 。
中风险
技术风险
包括以太坊协议风险、私钥被盗、系统性风险、密码协议风险等 。
中风险

从以上风险分析，由于区块链项目还处于早期探索阶段，存在新技术应用和落地风险，其代币激励机制可能受到金融监管影响，因此该项目具有中等以上风险，这也是当前所有区块链项目普遍存在的问题。

Hey, our referral program for Olympus Android app ended on the 20th.
Once our iOS app is out (in a couple of weeks), we'll have a separate referral program for it as well!

As for your last questions, I'm not sure I understand them correctly.

CME Director of Index Development joins Olympus Labs as an Advisor

Payal Lakhani joins Olympus Labs as an advisor to further develop best practices for the cryptocurrency financial protocol

Olympus Labs, an emerging leader in the cryptocurrency financial product space, welcomes Payal Lakhani, Director of Index Development at CME Group, as a key advisor for the cryptocurrency index product launched earlier this month.

Other than the upcoming index product, Olympus plans to release cryptocurrency futures and other financial products in 2018. As such, Olympus will leverage Lakhani’s 10+ years of financial experience in prestigious firms such as Morgan Stanley, Credit Suisse, MSCI, and the CME group to gain institutional recognition. She will bring her expertise to set templates for financial products that are suited for the cryptocurrency market, and meet industry best practices for product creation, such as industry best practices for index construction in the new product release.

“I am excited to work with Olympus Labs to further professionalize the cryptocurrency asset class, especially as more investors start setting up cryptocurrency portfolios,” said Lakhani, adding, “Olympus is a fantastic team driving the development of a rich cryptocurrency financial ecosystem, and I am proud to support what will be an important step in the development of future financial asset classes and products.”

As the Director of Index Development at the CME, Payal was heavily involved in constructing the methodology of the Bitcoin Reference Rate (BRR) and Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI) that the CME currently uses for their Bitcoin Futures (BTC). Payal’s expertise in index and ETF creation will greatly boost the adoption and legitimacy of Olympus’ index products.

CME Group is the world's leading and most diverse derivatives marketplace, handling 3 billion contracts worth approximately $1 quadrillion annually, on average. The company provides a marketplace for buyers and sellers, bringing together individuals, companies and institutions that need to manage risk.

“It’s truly an honor to have Payal join our advisory board and to provide our team with her guidance and expertise in this emerging cryptocurrency market. Payal is super generous with her time, dedicating herself to weekly calls and even day-to-day operations. It is an understatement to say that having Payal on the team is a game changer for Olympus Labs. With her help, we are ready to take the world by storm,” affirmed Kai Chen, CEO of Olympus Labs.

Olympus released their first index product on May 4, along with their mobile app release. Interested investors can download the mobile app to browse and purchase indices within several taps.

Olympus Labs to debut cryptocurrency index product with indices constructed by BB Index



Olympus Labs has signed a partnership with BB Index to include 26 investable cryptocurrency indices after its launch of a new index product within their mobile app

Olympus Labs, an emerging leader and pioneer in cryptocurrency financial protocols and products, has partnered with BB Index, provider of the world’s first well-diversified crypto-asset indices with systematic exposures to different segments of the cryptocurrency markets.

As part of this partnership, all 26 BB investable indices will be available through a gradual rollout schedule within the Olympus app, to be constructed and tracked through Olympus’ mobile app with just one tap of a button. Due to its core protocol, the Olympus core smart contract allows for efficient and timely replication of these indices for investors to track and purchase.

“Investments in the cryptocurrency market is still at an embryonic stage. If economic and finance history have taught us anything, it is that passive funds contribute to rapid and sustainable growth of investments. Olympus presents a great technology to foster growth in both passive and active funds. Launching the BB indices using the efficacy and precision of Olympus platform will contribute to the growth of this market,” stated Dr. Redouane Elkamhi, co-founder and developer of BB Index.

A landmark achievement for blockchain and asset management

This partnership will track some of the important developments of more “traditional” financial market indices over the years. Given that transparent and investable cryptocurrency indices are rare in the market these days, this partnership will put time and cost savings into the hands of potential and current cryptocurrency investors.

“We believe in the great value that this integration between BB Index and Olympus will bring to the general and seasoned cryptocurrency investor alike,” said Kai Chen, CEO of Olympus Labs, echoing the positive sentiments of Dr. Elkhami, “With the ease and simplicity of our mobile app, we will enable them to invest in timely and well-managed indices with little hassle.”

By launching this index partnership, both parties have created a crucial tool for producing the huge range of investment products that investors desire today.

“The blockchain community and investors will benefit tremendously from these transparent, well defined and independent constructed indices, presented in the most accessible way,” added Dr. Elkamhi.

Olympus Labs and Digix partner to bring tokenized gold DGX into the Olympus ecosystem




Olympus Labs signs a strategic partnership with Digix to bring tokenized gold in the form of DGX tokens into the Olympus ecosystem for creation of cryptocurrency indices.

Providing an important asset in an investor’s portfolio

Cryptocurrency investors will be able to purchase digital gold straight from the Olympus app by buying DGX tokens, therefore being able to hold an asset-backed token using the Ethereum Blockchain.

DGX will be included in Olympus’ Index offering, allowing investors to purchase DGX as part of a larger portfolio with a single tap. The portfolio will include DGX, MOT, KNC, and a growing list of other tokens, thereby giving investors the ability to easily acquire a diversified portfolio. DGX serves as a relatively uncorrelated asset, counterbalancing the other tokens in the portfolio, reducing overall portfolio volatility to protect portfolio values during crypto sell-offs.

With DGX integrated into the Olympus Protocol, DGX tokens can now be included in any custom indexes and financial products, whether made by the Olympus team or third-party developers using the Olympus protocol. In upcoming releases, Olympus can also provide digital gold futures, lending backed by digital gold, decentralized applications based on digital gold through this partnership with DGX.

“We are very excited to partner with Digix, the first crowdsale on Ethereum, and the creators of DigixDAO, to push the boundaries of blockchain technology and the cryptocurrency revolution. We are honored to be working with such an amazing and forward-thinking team, and we can’t wait to see what amazing financial products and applications will come from our partnership!” said Kai Chen, CEO of Olympus Labs.

DGX is a real-world asset-backed stablecoin, rather than a fiat-backed one, ensuring stability not only during cryptocurrency market turmoil, but also during ‘traditional’ economic slowdowns. Having a non-fiat backed stablecoin being accessible to Olympus clients and developers would assist in hedging risks and provide the cryptocurrency trading market with a powerful alternative to traditional fiat pairs.

“We stick to our ethos in creating a gold backed ERC20 token, namely DGX, as the de-facto stablecoin on the Ethereum blockchain ecosystem. With it being accessible through new dApps such as Olympus Labs, encourages adoption and awareness of its stablecoin properties.” KC Chng, CEO, DigixGlobal

The Olympus Ecosystem integrates financial product creators, third-party applications, exchanges, and price oracles, and we encourage third-party developers to build their own financial products and D-apps using Olympus Protocol.

About Digix

Digix is an asset tokenization platform on Ethereum, with physical gold on the Ethereum blockchain being its first use case.

Digix created the Proof of Provenance Protocol (PoP) to track physical assets on blockchain and the DGX token on a fully allocated basis, on which 1 token represents 1 gram of gold bullion from LBMA-approved refiners stored in the vaults in Singapore. The entire asset explorer of gold bullion is publicly accessible by anyone via the Digix Marketplace.

Digix and Olympus Labs believe that such a partnership is timely in propagating a safe haven asset into the financial ecosystem, allowing all financial products to benefit from the properties of a safe haven asset.
