EdenChain is creating a third generation smart-contract blockchain which they will utilize to implement a Programmable Economy. With the EdenChain platform, users can capitalize tangible / intangible values, and trade them over the blockchain. EdenChain also aims to provide a pervasive blockchain and token platform for applications across the board, including IoT, Energy, AdTech, P2P finance, Healthcare etc. Problem In regards to technology: With the growth of innovation in regards to a programmable economy, the two factors that currently hold these platforms back are security and performance. The original platforms created were extremely secure, but process transactions at an extremely low rate, making the possibilities of mainstream adoption impossible. Current existing platforms offer solutions which improves performance but at the trade-off of security. In regards to the global market: These tangible assets such as real estate, furniture, valuable arts, automobile, etc. are sold in a market managed by intermediaries. Both parties involved in the transaction require these services due to; lack of experience in these transactions, the process in which to finalize the sale, the necessity for oversight, and many more. These fees could range anywhere up to 20% or possibly more. Tangible Assets: The lack of platforms that provide a means to broker deals for intangible assets (time, social influence, services, networking, fame, etc.) causes the few current existing platforms to monopolize and charge extremely high fees to connect these deals. Intangible Assets: Solution EdenChain attempts to create the best possible solution to solve these global and technical issues that are present with modern day global market economy. Their approach to solve efficiency issues without sacrificing the user’s security could turn their platform into one of the most appealing up and coming projects out there. The EdenChain platforms allow any user to create a marketplace, attach their assets and trade via cryptocurrency, all without the necessity of a third-party. The platform offers a high level of security in regards to interoperability by implementing a consensus algorithm to ensure data integrity between on-chain and off-chain. EdenChain combines Namespace with Merkle Tree, isolates transactions by Namespace, and secures performance and scalability by constructing an Execution System capable of parallel processing by Namespace without processing one transaction at a time. Main Features & Tech Overview Architecture EdenChain’s blockchain architecture is comprised of 3 layers: a distributed ledger layer, a validation layer, and a bridge layer. Based on Linux Foundation’s open source project, Hyperledger Sawtooth, this distributive ledger layer provides the decentralized database functionality to EdenChain. The layer in which data used in the blockchain is distributed and stored, and only data of transactions agreed to in the validation layer are processed. Distributed ledger data can be added through transactions. Distributed Ledger Layer: PoET (Proof of Elapsed Time) is a consensus algorithm that uses a CPU command in the Software Guard Extension (SGX) to select a leader randomly without utilizing large amounts of energy to solve a hash problem. SGX allows applications to run trusted code in a protected environment. The layer where a transaction is executed and verified, and includes an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) to run a smart contract. Transactions are executed and verified in this layer, which includes the EVM. With a Transaction Execution Scheduler, it forwards transactions to corresponding nodes based on namespaces. The router can be automated, allowing resource management across transactions and nodes. Validation Layer: One can also operate the blockchain with optimal resources and computing power through real-time monitoring of the workload allocated to the Trusted Execution Environment. By grouping related transactions into batches, the validation layer ensures efficient execution as well as eliminates any data dependency issues. The validation layer’s transaction scheduling function has a significant impact on the performance and scalability of EdenChain. This layer consists of an e-bridge that connects EdenChain with external data sources through secured interoperability, enabling the on-chain smart contract connects with the off-chain modules. This layer is used to securely import data needed by an on-chain smart contract within the blockchain in cooperation with an off-chain. Bridge Layer: In the bridge layer, nodes naturally exist on-chain and off-chain, and an E-Protocol using ECC-TC, which is an encryption technique, is used for reliable communication between these nodes. Advantages of a Permissioned Blockchain : Smart Contracts ran in a permissioned blockchain are faster and more efficient. Efficiency EdenChain achieves this by using a certain number of nodes based on a namespace, and ensures 100 percent processing of all transactions. : EdenChain utilizes cloud services to ensure high availability and operates an EdenChain system with a multi-datacenter pattern using a global DNS and a load balancer. High Availability A multi-datacenter pattern is a pattern provided by the cloud service provider Amazon. It is used by many Internet companies such as the Apache Foundation, Netflix, CloudFoundry, and Atlassian, furthermore, recommended by MS Azure. HelloEden: The All-in-One ICO Solution The HelloEden platform is an all-encompassing tokenization ecosystem developed in conjunction with an ICO implementation process for a distributed infrastructure. Through the various partnerships secured by EdenChain for their HelloEden platform, existing businesses can perform a, “reverse ICO” or new businesses can launch an ICO on HelloEden’s one stop solution for all of their needs. These various partnerships would ease the process for any businesses interested in adopting blockchain technology. These initiatives could make EdenChain one of the widely adopted platforms due to simplicity of on-boarding. One of the major platforms initially released, HelloEden, will have a variety of partnership services such as: In Summary: ICO Marketing Legal Services KYC Wallet Services Coin Issuance ICO Ratings These services will function to help assist any business that are existing or new, avoid the stress of adopting blockchain technology into their business. Roadmap The Private Sale Series Round A has concluded. The Private Sale Series Round B will begin in May. The whitelisting has closed for the crowdsale. The crowdsale will begin in May. The MVP / First Alpha is scheduled to be released before the ICO (April). Token Economics EDN Ticker: EDN will be ERC-20 post crowdsale, and swapped into EdenChain’s wallet format when the mainnet launches in Q1 of 2019. Token type: 1 EDN = 0.0600 USD ICO Token Price: $24,000,000 USD Hard Cap: 1,000,000,000 Total Tokens: Potential Considerations EdenChain’s project is ambitious. They are attempting to tackle various issues and markets all at once, which could end up being overwhelming. extremely Team + Advisors — Founder James Ahn Amassed over 20 years of experience in the field of IT Worked as CTO of CyberRenassance Inc.
