WHITEPAPER

Blockstack is a new internet for decentralized apps where users own their data. Blockstack's platform helps entrepreneurs and engineers build these apps and deliver better end-user experiences.


- The traditional internet has many central points of failure and trust, like (a) the Domain Name System (DNS) servers, (b) public-key infrastructure, and (c) end-user data stored on centralized data stores. We present the design and implementation of a new internet, called Blockstack, where users don’t need to trust remote servers. We remove any trust points from the middle of the network and use blockchains to secure critical data bindings. Blockstack implements services for identity, discovery, and storage and can survive failures of underlying blockchains. The design of Blockstack is informed by three years of experience from a large blockchain-based production system. Blockstack gives comparable performance to traditional internet services and enables a much-needed security and reliability upgrade to the traditional internet.


TOKEN SALE

The token sale closed December 1, 2017.


- We’re thrilled to announce that the Blockstack token sale for accredited investors has come to an end, with a total of $50M closed and allocated.

Over 800 individuals and funds participated, including Union Square Ventures, Foundation Capital, Lux Capital, Winklevoss Capital, Blockchain Capital, Digital Currency Group, Kevin Rose, Michael Arrington, and Qasar Younis (the former COO of Y Combinator).

Additionally, over 8000 people received vouchers for a potential future purchase of up to $3000 worth of tokens (subject to applicable law).


TGE is coming soon - slated approximately for Q3/Q4 2018.


ATTENTION!

Announced Blockstack Community Rewards Program, in which you can earn tokens Stacks, performing various tasks.


- Anyone who completes a task posted by the community — technical or non-technical — will be rewarded with tokens. Each task will be denominated in Stacks, the native token to the Blockstack network, and redeemable subject to applicable law.

As we grow, these Stacks tokens will be used to perform various operations on the Blockstack network, whether you’re a user wanting to pay a premium subscription for a social network, or a developer registering an application. You can read more about Stacks in the token whitepaper.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

TGE is coming soon - slated approximately for Q3/Q4 2018, so anyone who has the voucher will get their share. Listing on exchange hasn't yet been announced.

So whats the difference? Do you mean something like Pre-sale closed and main sale coming soon? Does it mean that early buyers will wait almost 1 year before token start trade on exchanges?

In December, participants were given vouchers, which will be redeemed in Q3 / Q4. However, team can add you to the waitlist if you reach out to support@blockstack.com and provide your email address and legal name. Perhaps there will be another round of vouchers.

The fact that the project team consists of high-class professionals, and the project was selected venture investors with well-known names, adds confidence in the success of the project in the long term, only alarming that the documentation Blockstack not enough information about the expenditure of funds collected by the ICO.

A Million Dollar Request for Social Networks

- No single entity should have unilateral say over how 2 billion people connect and communicate. We believe the future of social networking should look like a constellation of compatible social networks, that emphasize privacy and security and put the user first.

- That’s why Blockstack Public Benefit Corporation has committed $1M to funding decentralized social networks. Starting today, we’re taking applications from developers committed to restoring control and freedom to users.

- There are virtually no limitations on the types of networks we’re looking for or audiences they should serve. You could build an uncensorable microblog, or enforce community curated blocklists. We’re looking for teams or people to show the possibilities of freedom and choice on the Internet.

Blockstack launches DApp Store 

- We believe it is critical to drive everyday users to dapps that are ready for widespread adoption. That’s why today, we’re announcing the first ecosystem-wide universal DApp Store. The Dapp Store is a discovery tool for decentralized apps built on Blockstack, Ethereum, EOS, IPFS, Steem, and more. It is launching with over 150 dapps for everything from gaming to finance, and we expect more to surface every day.

- Currently, dapps are accessed through a myriad of different channels, creating a bottleneck for people wanting to discover the best of what the decentralized Internet has to offer. The Dapp Store will help users discover apps from a convenient place and gives developers an outlet to feature their dapps to potential new users.

- We’re excited to hear about your favorite dapps and support creators and users alike with this effort. You can find more details about The Dapp Store, including what qualifies as a decentralized app, where we intend to take the platform with the community, and more in our blog post announcement.

Head on over to App.co to try the Universal Wallet App Finalists
Blockstack, in partnership with ShapeShift, put out a $50,000 challenge to developers around the world to create a Universal Wallet where users hold or add their favorite cryptocurrency and exchange into any token they want, all from within a wallet they privately own.
We gave teams two months to build and were impressed with the results!
The finalists are all open source and are listed in the wallet category on App.co. Note that they are all in alpha and were created in a short period of time, so you may experience a hiccup or two.
Hope you enjoy!
