Search and Blockchains

cyber•Fund vision of a decentralized search industry after 6 months of R&D

1. Search and Blockchains 26 September 2017 St. Petersburg Dima Starodubcev @hipster cyber•Fund
2. 1. Vision 2. Done 3. Plans
3. Hash Rank Hash Value 1. Hash 3 359 2. Hash 4 23 3. Hash 5 0.23 Basic Contract probabilistic search strict search
4. Possible applications: - Physical Web => Hash lookup (IoT, AR) - Autonomous drones - VR apps - Search snippets as call to actions (Pay per conversion) - Wallets, Explorers, Browsers - Computer vision systems - Voice command and control - Narrow AI applications - Messaging bots - Any web, mobile and desktop app
5. What is Better Google? Well, at least 13 points ...
6. Google Better Google Web Stack IP, HTTP and DNS IPFS and DLT Code Closed Source Open Source Data Proprietary Knowledge Knowledge in a Blockchain Control Centralized by Alphabet Decentralized by Every User Entity Paper based US corporation Supranational and Programmatic Ranking Gamable, thus non transparent Sybil Resistant, thus transparent Beneficiaries Limited group of Stakeholders All Users are stakeholders Offline and Interplanetary No Yes Censorship Yes No Security Unknown Known Privacy Impossible Pseudonymous Identities Ads Yes No Apps Limited Unlimited
7. And 1 Huge Better Google is Yours To the last bit
8. Why Better Google? Because now we can Thanks to Distributed Ledger and Consensus Computer Technology like Ethereum and Content Addressable p2p networks like IPFS
9. 1 Problem: Hardware Solution: Outsourcing of computation for DIY makers
10. 2 Problem: Algorithms Solution: Incentivisation of writing to index and finding relevance between documents Centralized Write to Index Everybody can use their own logic to add documents, make links between them and participate in ranking Better Google
11. 3 Problem: People Solution: Create an open market of search snippets with built in monetization Independent developers cannot add to a quality of search engine Independent developers can create small javascript programs that can dynamically answer questions depending on a query. Popular programs earn tokens. Better Google
12. 4 Problem: Chicken & Egg Nobody will use a new search unless it will be better at everything from inception. True Let’s start from something small: (1) there new search engine can be significantly better and (2) that is able eventually evolve to better everything Solution: Let’s start from indexing blockchains
13. Why indexing blockchains? Inception of clean data Cheap and fast access Tremendous growth
14. Inception of Clean Data
15. Cheap and Fast Access Google crawlers consume ~10% of a worldwide broadband 1. Set up an indexing of a blockchain once 2. Stream live data into index forever 3. Add blockchains Or Sniff data from IPFS DHT directly 100 kb per minute currently Better Google
16. Tremendous Growth of Blockchains 2015 year 2017 year 2025 year 100 million tx accumulated ~ 1 billion tx accumulated Tx accumulated comparable with url exist now
17. Awesome Team! Done! Marketing Backend Data Science Blockchain Apps + meetups + bootcamps + schools + hackathons + cyber•Con + award (!) + youtube channel + cyber-markets + cybernode + cyber•Analytics + ICO Due Dills + Weekly Updates + Chaingear + golos-core + Golosfund + Golosio + Steepshot ...

20. High priority: - Ethereum + ERC 20 (Homestead, Classic, Dfinity, Oracles) - Bitcoin + OP_Return (Bitcoin, Dash, Litecoin) - Graphene + Tokens (Bitshares + Steem + Golos) Medium priority: - Mempool indexing - Ripple - Stellar - Byteball - NEM Prepare to index: - Hyperledger - Tezos - EOS - Ardor + Child chains Why to index? - Monero - Zcash cybernode roadmap
21. cyber-markets roadmap High priority: - Top-10 exchanges by volumes with websocket support - Top-3 exchanges by volumes with REST support - Etherdelta - Graphene dEx - Ripple dEx Medium priority: - 0x - Bisq - Top-30 exchanges by volumes with websocket support - Top-10 exchanges by volumes with REST supportest support Low priority: - Byteball dEx - Stellar dEx - Nem dEx - Ardor dEx
