Holochain Revenue and Competitors

About Us: Holochains support decentralized data storage for distributed applications. A holochain functions very much like a blockchain without bottlenecks when it comes to enforcing validation rules, but is designed to be fully distributed through sharding so each node only needs to hold a portion of the data instead of a full global ledger. Holochains are secured through distributed hash tables (DHT) in which nodes enforce validation rules on data against the orginating source of the data. This makes it feasible to run blockchain-like applications on devices as lightweight as mobile phones. Key words: Decentralized Data Storage, Holographic Architecture, Universally Scalable Computing, Active User & Host Agency Our Story: The corporatization of the web in the past two decades has shown that the best attempts to connect humans on their own terms can be thwarted. We think it is not necessary to strip users of their privacy, autonomy, and dignity. The information economy thrives when everyone who generates information can also steward that information. We can end the monopolistic hold of our information on centralized servers by creating a web that builds user autonomy directly into its architecture and protocols. We've combined some of the best of blockchains and bittorrent to power a flexible platform scalable enough to run Facebook. At root, information is about people who inform and thus transform one another. Data is about remembering our lived and shared experiences. Distributing the storage of data may sound abstract, but we think it can shift how humans coordinate. With the power of digital connection under user control, we connect more wisely and turn the Internet into a means of complementing and supporting life offline. We are building the Holo ecosystem to harmonize with the shift from simply using applications towards participating in them.
