TomoChain

The Internet of Value

The development of blockchain technology is helping to usher in a new era of the internet, the internet of value. In the 1990’s the rapid development of the web allowed for the instantaneous exchange of ideas and information. By adding a layer of blockchain-enabled services to the internet, the goal is to allow for an equally efficient exchange of assets. There are several technical problems to solve before this becomes a reality however. TomoChain is attempting to address these issues.

Until the development of crypto currencies, all transfers of value had to be done through an intermediary like a bank or an exchange. This market is huge. Cross-border payments alone total over USD 180 trillion globally every year, accumulating costs of USD 1.7 trillion, and that is not even counting the transfer of other assets. The economic value of moving these transactions onto a blockchain solution is immense. The current setup, with each node confirming each transaction, is too slow and cumbersome to handle that many transactions however. In order to solve this problem of scalability, two factors need to be addressed.

The Ethereum blockchain is currently able to handle about 15 transactions per second. If you compare that to Visa, which handles 45,000 transactions per second, it is easy to see the limits of the current infrastructure. Add to that the fact that any changes to the Ethereum blockchain needs to be funded by gas, making micro payments unfeasible. To solve these problems, TomoChain will implement a second layer solution where all transactions are handled off chain before being anchored to the Ethereum blockchain.

TomoChain is designed to be a public permissioned chain pegged to the Ethereum network using ERC-20 compliant smart contracts. The protocol will be open source, supporting a blockchain that can handle billions of transactions per day for zero fees and with instant confirmation. This will induce third party developers to build their apps, and issue tokens, inside the TomoChain ecosystem. The TomoWallet will allow for atomic cross-chain transactions between tokens that are part of the platform, as well as between Ethereum and TomoChain. TomoCoin will be the protocol token that govern and regulate this infrastructure. It will have a fixed supply of 100 million tokens.

Coin Name : TomoCoin (TMC)

Total Supply : — 100,000,000 TMC

Circulating Supply : 55,000,000 TOMO

Market Cap : $96,105,350 USD

Tokens/Money Raised Through ICO : — Token Sale starts 1 MAR $8,500,000

TomoApp

The first consumer application to utilize the TomoChain infrastructure will be a new decentralized social network with a built-in crypto currency. Initially the focus will be on building up a library of questions and answers, sourced from the community, with contributors being rewarded in TomoCoin. These can be used for free and instantaneous micro-transaction within the app itself. Each Tomo application account will come with its own TomoWallet integrated.

A full 40% of the TomoCoins issued will go towards supporting developers and early contributors. As developers use the TomoChain infrastructure to issue their own tokes, these will be integrated into the TomoWallet and available for atomic cross-chain transactions.

Security

Both the TomoApp and the TomoWallet will use a decentralized identity database to allow users to log into all applications using one account. Published APIs will allow third party developers to use the same service.

The TomoWallet will also allow users to handle multiple addresses from different blockchains. These will be encrypted using random passphrases generated by BIP32 and BIP39, with the encryption process staying fully on the client side to ensure privacy.

TomoChain will use a Proof of Authority protocol to manage a high volume of transactions at fast speeds, with the validators chosen based on their collaboration rankings. It uses a masternode and servicenode model, with nodes built in multiple locations in order to secure the immutable state of the database. There is also a node protection algorithm to protect against spamming and 51% attacks.

Competition

The possibilities when moving financial transactions online through a blockchain solution are almost limitless. The efficiency and cost savings are immense for a system that can securely handle a large volume of transactions. Etherum’s planned move from their current Proof of Work system, to one based on Proof of Stake, will alleviate some of the issues. Even this system will run into problems though, when dealing with billions of financial transactions per day.

TomoChain’s protocol, using a Proof of Authority system in a secure off-chain ecosystem secured to the Ethereum blockchain, would be able to handle to required amount of transactions almost for free. There are of course other companies attempting to do the same thing, like Steem, Kin and OmiseGo. They all use slightly different methods to achieve the same goal. Whichever ecosystem becomes the go to platform for online financial transactions will reap enormous benefits, and their coin is likely to appreciate significantly.
