Learn about SAFE Network!
Details
Come learn about SAFE Network, a wildly ambitious attempt to build a massive online network under the principles that it be decentralized, collaborative, self-enforcing, and transparent; where the users never lose sovereignty of their data. To do so, the MAIDSAFE team behind the SAFE network invented:
- A networking protocol where all data is self-encrypted and organized by the network autonomously in an unpredictable way
- A distributed consensus protocol that is highly asynchronous and Byzantine Fault Tolerant, allowing up to 1/3 of the nodes in the network to be malicious
- A blockchain-inspired Data Chain to track where data lives in the network
- A cryptocurrency to compensate users for the CPU, memory, and disks provided to the network
- A platform for developing applications based on that network
Michael Pigott will introduce the network, explain how it works, and perhaps even demonstrate a potential internet of the future.
