Connected Contract Meetup in China
Taraxa is honored to have been invited by Chainlink to its meetup in China’s Wuzhen World Blockchain Conference, sharing the stage with Conflux, Lino Network, MakerDAO, and MyKey. Taraxa shared its IoT use cases in Japan which connect data from the real world to help reinforce trust in business models.
Both Taraxa and Conflu’s xunderlying blockchain topologies were inspired by the same set of papers written by Zohar and Sompolinsky: GHOST, Spectre, and Phantom. We hope to continue our technical exchange going forward!
Panel with Chainlink, Conflux, and Lino Network
During our Beijing trip we stopped by a meetup with Chainlink, Conflux and Lino Network.
The audience was particularly lively with many fascinating questions, one of which inspired us to write an article in our ongoing Blockchain 101 series, explaining the different kinds of data and what blockchain is able guarantee for each type.
Whitepaper on Github, Economics, Governance
Taraxa has released its whitepaper onto Github to make it easier for our team and community to collaborate. We have also added in preliminary versions of our economics and governance designs. Here are the links,
