| − | ===Web speed===
| |
| − | * Fast smart contracts allow you to build anything
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Environment and cost===
| |
| − | * Efficiency and costs approaches traditional IT stack - build anything
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Network scales without limit===
| |
| − | Can scale to process unbounded volumes of smart contract data and computation
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Network scaling is transparent to systems===
| |
| − | Network scaling is transparent to smart contract code
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Web serving (true Web 3.0… dapp websites running on AWS is Web 2.0)===
| |
| − | * Smart contracts securely serve web-content directly to users
| |
| − | * Users interact with dapps w/o having a wallet or tokens (reverse gas + Internet Identity)
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Network Nervous System===
| |
| − | * Automated in-protocol governance makes the network self-directed
| |
| − | * Network is constantly expanding, upgrading and improving, w/o downtime
| |
| − | * Seamless community-driven evolution and governance without disruptive hard forks
| |
| − | * Acts as a community fund that drives blockchain economy
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Novel “canister” smart contract framework===
| |
| − | * Orthogonal persistence (data lives in persistent memory pages)
| |
| − | * Actor model (deterministic parallelism, internally and externally)
| |
| − | * Access to perfect randomness
| |
| − | * Integration with other blockchains e.g. they have Bitcoin addresses
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Service Nervous System (SNS) economic framework for dapps===
| |
| − | * Advanced DAO can take control of a dapp
| |
| − | * Dapps run under the control of a community (full decentralization)
| |
| − | * Dapps run as extensions of the blockchain (microeconomy with macroeconomy)
| |
| − | * Dapps can raise funds into the SNS; funds controlled by community
| |
| − | * Cycles act as stable-value currency for DeFi
