‘Creating DApps Can Be Simple’: Platform to Bring Decentralized Economy to Mass Adoption

Published at: Nov. 5, 2018

A new project from Dubai, HetaChain, is developing a universal blockchain platform with “industrial scale computational capabilities.” The project is intended to make blockchain more easy-to-use and flexible for regular users and developers. HetaChain aims to help governmental services, businesses, and organizations create decentralized applications (DApps) and integrate them into different industries, such as banking, e-commerce, robotics, and healthcare.

Solving blockchain issues

The new Heta Blockchain 3.0 Platform, launched in 2018 by Relam Investment and its founder, Sultan Ali Rashed Lootah, runs a hybrid of the Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) and a Byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) consensus mechanisms which are designed to bring security to fight against cyberattacks.

According to the company, the hybrid consensus algorithm will be able to handle most of the challenges that many blockchain platforms are currently facing. These limitations include issues with security, difficulty in developing DApps, and the speed of the network. For example, Bitcoin can process only seven transactions per second (TPS), compared to Visa which can process 24 TPS. HetaChain says its technology allows for fast TPS “without the risk of downtime.”

Mainchain

The core element of HetaChain is Mainchain, the place for storing all of the public tokens. The tokens will be validated by master nodes and Mainchain will also generate multiple private chains that can be private channels for different users like a person, a company or an organization. They will have control over their own chain and will connect to the public MainChain via a special communication protocol.

The Heta Blockchain is powered by an internal cryptocurrency, HETA, which can be used to pay usage fees. There are two types of payments: the first one is the transaction fee that is paid once the user exchanges coins or tokens made by Heta. The second fee is an endorsing reward, which is paid when the user is involved in consensus or the validation process of a private chain or MainChain.

“Drag, drop, adjust”

For users without the knowledge of developing DApps, the platform offers ready solutions in the DApp Store. There will be plug-and-play DApps, software, and smart contracts, pre-built by the community or third parties for the HetaChain ecosystem. Those who want to try to create a simple smart contract can use an auto generation DApp. The company says that anyone with even basic programming skills will be able to handle it by dragging, dropping, and adjusting elements. An off-chain Database will also be available. The project’s development is planned to also be supported by a big data analysis which will be provided by third-party data centers connected to the MainChain.

There will be one more Relam Investments’ project powered by HetaChain technology and based on the smart contracts. T-Hub system is the place for integration of stakeholders in business and logistics operations like ports, customs, government agencies. Relam Investments will offer logistics services which are “fast and easy to use.”

Hetachain team

The founder, chairman and CEO of HetaChain is Sultan Ali Rashed Lootah, who has been a vice chairman of Mashreqbank PSC since March 18, 2015 and its director since 1996. The co-founders of the project are Mr. Ali Juma AlAjme – director of the United Arab Emirate’s Ministry of Health and Prevention’s IT Department, and Duy Phuong Nguyen, the vice chairman of Relam Investment. Nguyen has experience in leading finance and banking projects in Vietnam Industrial Securities and Vietnam Commodities Exchange.

Recently, Relam Investments announced their plan of expansion to India. The company said it will start with initial investment of around $250 million in technology startups and real estate projects.

Privacy protocol’s dogged focus on untraceable coins and anonymous communication
In a battle of animal-themed cryptocurrencies, a bullock-branded, anonymity-focused protocol is making the case that it is faster, safer and cleaner than the shiba inu-faced joke coin that became a top 10 cryptocurrency this year, largely on the strength of Elon Musk’s memes. Animals aside, the Oxen privacy coin does have some reason to compare itself with market darling Dogecoin. Speed, for one. While DOGE’s block time is one minute compared to OXEN’s two, Oxen can use what it calls Blink technology, which is the default setting for OXEN to make the transactions nearly instant. On top of that, Oxen …

Crypto project brings apps and smart contracts to Bitcoin
A blockchain project says it makes Bitcoin programmable in a way that it hasn’t been before — enabling apps and smart contracts to be brought to the network. Stacks (formerly known as Blockstack) aims to position BTC as the foundation for a better internet that’s owned by users. Those behind this ecosystem argue that the internet is broken, with tech giants dominating the landscape. Stacks is a Layer 1 blockchain that uses Bitcoin’s infrastructure as a secure base layer. Smart contracts and apps can be enabled with little modification, with “minimal transaction load” on the network. Underpinning how scalable Stacks …

This blockchain is using Bitcoin to offer a unique DeFi experience
The crypto industry has come up with a lot to offer to the world, but there’s no denying that decentralized finance (DeFi) is one of the most valuable innovations to come from it. Thanks to the inherent decentralization provided by blockchain technology, DeFi gives users many of the benefits of traditional finance, such as generating a passive income through lending, but with one massive advantage: the removal of a third-party intermediary. By removing an intermediary, DeFi users have more control over their financial processes. They can experience higher interest rates on-lent assets, facilitate a better deal when borrowing, or simply …

Stake or DApp? With liquid staking, you don’t have to choose
Last summer, Polkadot made its own little bit of history after confirming the first five projects to occupy parachain slots on its canary network Kusama. Disparate blockchains that bolt onto Polkadot’s main Relay Chain for security, yet are otherwise independent, parachains represent a new way of doing business in blockchain, a maximalist vision aimed at enhancing scalability and governance while permitting the possibility of forkless upgrades. The five projects were Karura, Moonriver, Shiden, Khala and Bifrost. Fast-forward to today, and the first batch of parachains are set to expire, releasing over 1 million locked Kusama (KSM) tokens into the market. …

Decentralized apps on Polygon hit 37,000, rocketing 400% this year
The number of decentralized applications (DApps) on Ethereum-scaling-platform Polygon has topped 37,000, marking a 400% increase since the start of 2022. The Polygon team shared the figures via an Aug. 10 blog post, which was sourced from partnered Web3 development platform Alchemy, noting that the figure represents the cumulative number of applications ever launched on both the testnet and mainnet. It also noted that the number of monthly active teams — a measure of developer activity on a blockchain — reached 11,800 at the end of July, up a whopping 47.5% from March. The project team also highlighted a breakdown …
