The Übermensch project - a LinkedIn for a cryptocommunity, a distributed business platform that allows traders, investors, developers, consultants and enthusiasts to find business partners, offer their services, enter into joint deals based on smart contracts, hire staff, advertise their own Services in a comfortable and secure environment, and also finance projects (individually or as a part of a particular community). The platform allows you to get the maximum PR in the cryptocommunity through a system of ratings and reviews. It also allows you to act anonymously while keeping transactions with other community members safe.
At registration each user by default receives a rating formed by the system basing on objective witnesses of users' activity in cryptocommunity or basing on the provided documents. Further, the community by the method of clarification, as well as impartial and decentralized voting and adding reviews, corrects this rating achieving its maximum objectivity. This allows you to change the collusion of monopolies, when large community members, basing themselves on their large assets in the cryptocurrency, can conspire and squeeze out independent projects from the market.
Platform is based on the "Profile" that allows to provide information about yourself for fast keyword search of a desired party basing on its features and services offered. Participants make deals based on a smart-contracts - to offer goods and services and pay for them, to hire, pay for consultations, form communities and set up joint projects, co-finance the transaction in the framework of projects, etc. The platform enables not only to find a party, but also to offer a job, to involve in realization of a project on blockchain, makes it easy to test new ideas, discussing it with crypto and blockchain technology market professionals. Using the platform you can not only get feedback and criticism, but also form a team in order to realize you own project, and also receive funding from the interested parties.
The platform is anonymous in essence, but each user sets an acceptable level of anonymity for oneself. Public figures who care about high rating and trust level reveal their personality as much as possible. However the platform also provides functionality that can completely hide an account identity, should owner wish to enter into a business transaction without disclosing one's identity.
It can serve the following use cases:
-The user comes to the platform searching for consultant to create a product or make a deal related to the cryptocurrency. By keywords and rating system, he finds a consultant, discusses the deal terms, and pays for the required number of hours of consultation through a smart contract.
-The user comes up with a business idea and creates a "Project" (similar to a group in linkedin), describes the essence of the idea and adds a preliminary created document. The platform allows you to find interested parties for the project: programmers and managers for implementation, as well as business partners to participate in the project. Users can also co-finance the project in the internal platform currency directly in a group.
-Collective due diligence of existing or emerging projects to cut off scam. Collective discussion of a project, researches for white paper, smart contracts, terms and business proposals of the project, adequacy in terms of market realities, the possibility of involving in a group of market experts for in-depth discussion of the project. Platform anonymity allows you to express any opinions, even negative, send documents that can protect investors from investing money in a fraudulent or obviously unrealizable projects without the fear of compromising yourself.
Given that the personal rating of each user (including experts) will be formed and will be regularly adjusted depending on objective decentralized voting of the entire cryptocommunity (as was mentioned above), experts will be able to evaluate the project as objectively as possible, based on personal experience, personal opinion, personal rating (using scales calculated from the expert's personal rating), as well as the views of the community as a whole and the materials sent (including insider information that can be provided under condition of source full anonymity ).
Thus, the due diligence of the project is particularly influenced by the collusion between monopolies in the market and becomes as objective as possible, which will benefit the cryptocommunity and will give a new round of development to the market as a whole.
We have done some research on where dApps (decentralized applications) on Ethereum or other blockchains can store their data. We have found that there is no satisfactory place for that. They can store data in blockchain itself (which leads to blockchain bloat), in distributed file systems (which can store only static files), and several more useless options. We have reviewed them all and come to a sort of a solution - a decentralized noSql database that could meet the decentralized application needs, because it is fast, scalable and Bysantine fault tolerant.
Concept of a new database
Current implementations of storages do not meet one or the other of the requirements for a database, which would suit a wide range of applications on the blockchain. While it is affordable for a database to be softly linked with the blockchain (that is, not all database transactions must pass through the blockchain), it must be resistant to the malicious behavior of other DB nodes, provide sufficient level of replication, and have mechanisms to motivate participants to support the network.
The proposed DB can be attributed to the next generation of databases satisfying the above-mentioned principles.
