• Compact blockchain capable of running on a smartphone.
• Stable, open, global and censorship resistant P2P network with an embedded base-level blockchain for secure payments, token processing and contracts.
• Scalable, programmable, without any storage required, quantum-safe, evidence-based, Tx-PoW cascading chain.
