The LaunchPAD name comes from the fact that it is software produced to be launched by its users.

LaunchPAD Technology, at the core and foundational level, is an all encompassing blockchain operating system, that has a graphical user experience which can interface with a variety of all encompassing blockchain related applications. It is usable for anything and everything related to blockchains, while also bringing along all the benefits of existing modern day operating systems (minus the viruses, spyware, adware etc. which only diminish from user experience; remember blockchains cannot get viruses!).

The LaunchPAD Blockchain Operating System can be installed on existing computers the same way Windows, Mac, Linux can be installed on your existing machine.

The brilliance of this technology is that is is flexible and scalable enough that it can be used or adopted for any purpose related to blockchains. It will replace these old and out-dated personal computer operating systems based on the inventions of Xerox PARC, by absorbing their functionality automatically, while also absorbing the functionality of traditional blockchains and all their existing applications, too.

That being said, operating systems like the variations of Windows, Mac, Linux that exist are more and more becoming a spyware tool instead of a software. Software should only serve the end-user and therefore the community at point of usage. When you are dealing with blockchains, you will rather use a blockchain operating system like LaunchPAD.

This is unlike other tokenized technologies, this is a buildable, scalable and flexible software that can adopt and adapt to all other existing technologies automatically. This removing the need to manage thousands of tokens, nodes, mining algorithms, on thousands of different wallets or their different respective user interfaces; this all will be integrated into the LaunchPAD Blockchain Operating System. This consolidation of connections to blockchains is unique, and can be used by people who do not want the headaches of dealing with various independent blockchains; the key is to just use one, the LaunchPAD Blockchain Operating System, right out of the box.

Therefore, all other open source tokenized technologies will become absorbed and part of the LaunchPAD Blockchain Operating System. In other words, people will not need to run five different computer control centers to run mining or staking on five different blockchain networks, they will only need one, the LaunchPAD Blockchain Operating System, that creates these connections between incompatible blockchains and is powered by a consensus and security proof of stake token inflation based cryptographic algorithm; meaning there will never be directly any fees or transactional friction for any of its users!

The high costs of acquiring cryptocurrency these days means users must always hold some of that currency on standby to pay their respective blockchain’s fees. Therefore, having hidden capital lockup costs is worse than having proof of capital lock up costs. Dynamic crypto algorithms such as proof of stake take the idea of a three day lockup for funds in traditional banking and effectively make it zero or continuous to align with the current LaunchPAD standards. When using blockchain technology for the clearing of information like a transaction, operations become more simple to grasp and understand technically and fundamentally. User perceptions or experience matter more than the reality under the hood. People do not perceive capital lock up at the protocol level the same way they do the direct costs of traditional blockchain fee models. Users can conduct transactions forever when all transactions have zero fees; any sort of fee model is a flaw, and so results in loss of capital for users who believe in the token economies future or the usage of the underlying technology itself. The opportunity cost for using LaunchPAD’s technologies and software will always be zero, and so fees eventually will become negative.

Beside other applications that can already be accomplished in modern day operating systems, which by default are to be included in the LaunchPAD Blockchain Operating System, this all encompassing operating system can be launched at sole discretion of users to accomplish, build and create an all encompassing user experience and robust foundational infrastructure related to all existing and forthcoming blockchain, cryptocurency, and digital economy capabilities and applications.

Among these capabilities lie:

Censorship-resistant, permanent exchange for cross-blockchain transactions between incompatible blockchains, social media and Internet information browsing data exchanges; Always encrypted and anonymous communications by instant messaging, text, video, virtual reality games etc., representations of blockchain applications in virtual reality worlds; Text and speech processing; Music and audio processing; A graphical command line backed interface for cross-blockchain wallet management, key management, nodes management, mining management; Development of new blockchain applications to be run on the LaunchPAD Lightning Network Exchange Cash Operating System Application and Dark Pool Protocol.

Among these applications lie:

Distributed solar power grid for the third world, no monopoly in center; Distributed Internet and wifi bandwidth grid, interplanetary scale by adoption of satellite nodes, no monopoly; Censorship resistant DNS; Scalable TOR and onion routing; Scalable Lightning Network and SegWit; Uncensorable prediction markets and self-regulated stock exchanges; Swiss bank privacy as an automatic and hardcoded service within the operating system software; Routers auctioning trade routes and micro-transaction bandwidth; Servers charging clients to stop DDoS and spam; Self-driving cars auctioning the right of way and road usage or voting on road infrastructure repair without the need for bureaucratic or political intervention; Cross-border micro-financial contracts; Financing innovation and development without Wall Street and Sand Hill Road; Personal identity ownership and control of your own privacy and data; Permissionless file storage grid; Evolving autonomous decentralized lightning applications.

This is the foundation for the consolidation of all type of blockchain applications into one all encompassing operating system. This all encompassing blockchain operating system can be used to connect to any blockchain, and therefore adopt functionality and application on the go, automatically, and all into its own through the underlying decentralized exchange and dark pool protocols hardcoded into this blockchain operating system to ensure every transaction is encrypted, and therefore is anonymous.

LaunchPAD Inc. is the software company producing this free tokenized technology that can be adopted and is launchable for an all encompassing array of capabilities stated above in order to enable free markets, and protect the life, liberty, and property of the people. This will happen, at the sole discretion of the third party user community, the abilities and the services that the network of block production may take into effect are thus voted upon.

LaunchPAD is built as a foundation for others to launch, and so to create networks, that self-organize, extract, aggregate, and allocate resources, make decisions, and evolve automatically. What is more, is all users who run this operating system, are paid to do so if they choose to stake their LNCH tokens, meaning if they also use their instance of the operating system toward verifying the crypto algorithm of the blockchain network running automatically, or so to speak, seeding the infrastructure of this all encompassing blockchain connections foundation of applications running on the LaunchPAD Blockchain Operating System. Call it A.I. if you’d like.

A spectre is haunting the modern world, the spectre of crypto anarchy.
