The XYO Network has four primary components, Sentinels, Bridges, Archivists, and Diviners. These four components enable geo-focused, consensus-building and trustless verification of location data. This means that when you write a smart contract that specifies for an object to appear at a specific XY-coordinate, if it appears there, you will know that it was at that location with absolute certainty. This is all done without risk of spoofing the location signaling device(s) verified by thousands of Sentinels in the XY Oracle Network with the longest Proof of Origin chain (thus yielding greater confidence in the heuristics).

SMART CONTRACTS CAN NOW INTERACT WITH THE REAL WORLD AS IF IT WERE AN API
Location data is used every day across the world. Societies and economies are becoming increasingly reliant on the certainty and security of location heuristics. Self-driving vehicles, package-delivering drones and smart cities will likely call for an increased reliance upon trustless location data. The adoption of the technologies of tomorrow centers on their ability to trust location heuristics they receive from an off-chain resource.

The need for a difficult-to-disrupt system to complement GPS has been well known for years. GPS is exceptionally accurate and dependable, yet jamming, spoofing, cyber attacks and other forms of interference appear to be growing in frequency and severity. This has the potential for devastating effects on our lives and economic activity."

We believe the current location technologies lack the necessary certainty and security properties necessary to move us into the future. We have developed an ecosystem of crypto-location protocols and components, which leverage the strengths of blockchain technologies, and solve the short-comings of location technologies relied upon today. Our project is called the "XY Oracle Network" (XYO Network). The XYO Network enables trustless transactions through an ecosystem of crypto-location components that can bridge the gap from the world of today, to the world of tomorrow.

Proof Of Origin
In a trustless system, data may be lost, damaged, tampered with, or otherwise corrupted. Traditional Proof of Origin in a trustless system relies on a private key for signing transactions or contracts in a system. This works very well with the assumption that the node on the network that signs the data in question is physically and virtually secure. If the private key is compromised, then the ability to prove origin falters. Proof of Origin (Proof of Origin) is the key to verifying that ledgers flowing into the XYO Network are valid. A unique ID for source of data is not practical since it can be spoofed. private key signing is not practical since most parts of the XYO Network are difficult or impossible to physically secure, so the ability for a bad actor to steal a private key is too feasible. To solve this, XYO Network uses Transient Key Chaining. The benefit of this is that it is impossible to falsify the chain of origin for data.

THE XYO NETWORK LEVERAGES CRYPTOECONOMIC INCENTIVES TO REWARD DESIRED BEHAVIOR AND DETER AGAINST NETWORK ATTACKS
THIS CREATES THE FIRST EVER TRUSTLESS LOCATION PROTOCOL

Bound Witness
In a trustless system, a witness node can either (through defect or corruption) produce false data. Invalid data can be detected and removed simply if it falls outside the allowed range for that heuristic. Valid but incorrect data (i.e. false data) is much more difficult to detect. Given that an untrusted source of data used to resolve a digital contract (an oracle) is not useful, we can substantially increase the certainty of the data provided by first establishing the existence of a bidirectional proof of location. The primary bidirectional location heuristic is proximity, since both parties can validate the occurrence and range of an interaction by cosigning the interaction. This allows for a zero-knowledge proof that the two nodes were in proximity of each other. This novel concept is called "Bound Witness," and the XYO Network introduces this possibility, for the first time ever, to the world. The implications of this will change a multitude of industries and the way we trade in the world.
