8000 STEEM (1,300 USD)~ Sponsored Writing Contest: ProximaX - My entry

in #contest4 years ago



Attending the call of @OriginalWorks & CateredContent.com, to the writing contest sponsored by ProximaX for CateredContent.com, with much joy I share my learning in relation to the ProximaX.

Warning: I'm not an expert on the subject, yet I feel satisfied with the little I learned, thanks to the invitation to this contest.

I will try to follow the format of questions that are on topics, according to what I understood after researching a little on the subject and I will begin by mentioning that:

What is ProximaX?

ProximaX is a blockchain-based, decentralized content storage and distribution network, whose strength is to provide a platform that allows the development of applications and services, easy to use.

This platform seeks a greater industrial application of this new technology and the development of DApps.

The ProximaX project is headed by Lon Wong, former president and advisor of the NEM Foundation.

What are the benefits of using ProximaX over other blockchain infrastructures?

The blockchain is evolving and more and more are the needs that need to be solved to take advantage of users, issues such as scalability, use of decentralized apps, internet, privacy, speed, among many other even more technical requirements in its operation, must be incorporated into it, to be at the forefront.

First, ProximaX has the following protocols and service layers to support the powerful development of decentralized services:

  • Blockchain: Preserves the Blockchain essence, thanks to the support of "NEM".
  • Storage: Offers a storage solution based on the "Distributed File Management System (DFMS) protocol".
  • Streaming: using the "PSP protocol (PeerStream) for real-time routing and transmission, point-to-point private messaging and online presence", necessary for video transmissions, for example; and finally,
  • "Consensus: A multilayered consensus protocol for voting, governing, harvesting, and rewarding network nodes that bring storage resources and bandwidth to the network."

In addition, the ProximaX platform will have its own token that will be used to "pay nodes, DApp developers and content creators on the platform".

It also has "ProximaX KYC is a Know-Your-Counterparty application that is built on top and powered by ProximaX's Sirius platform." Its main advantage is that it offers its users absolute security and privacy in the records stored in ProximaX KYC, since, "all information is fragmented, encrypted by default and stored in several nodes.

With proximaX KYC, information owners have the option to "grant or deny access as they see fit," all at a much lower cost than with other systems.

In other words, ProximaX, will allow to address other applications other than value transfer and transactions. By allowing Dapps to be developed and having its token, it will be a perfect complement to "NEM's decentralized ecosystem".

What is the benefit of having all the tools required to develop any type of project in one place?

Until now the Internet has had the extensive responsibility of interconnecting people, assets, systems, mobile devices, among many other applications. It is the main means of communication, until it becomes the main part of our lives. I am one of the people who knows life before and after the Internet and I know that you can live without it, but for the new generation is unthinkable life without the Internet. Your main defect? - Vulnerability. Practically our entire life is exposed. Efforts to maintain privacy are getting bigger and more expensive.
This has made room for Blockhain technology, promising to offer more robust decentralized networks, eliminating costly middlemen and creating an interconnected network and has evolved in that direction.
ProximaX, is one of those attempts to solve the problem, by offering all the advantages, already mentioned, allows DApps developers and companies to deploy and manage their solutions more easily, at lower cost.
ProximaX by integrating traditional Blockchain protocols with services outside the block chain, offers improvements in storage, streaming media, decentralization, opportunities to grow in scale, always asserting network integrity and security.

"To be able to group all these services and protocols in manageable, but different layers", ProximaX solves the cost-efficient enigma of Blockchain transactions, maintaining at the same time flexibility, ease of adoption and integration, security and speed. All within an extensible all-in-one framework.
In addition ProximaX developed an advanced and novel algorithm to maintain its integrity and value, which allows to reward the staff of the nodes. In addition, it has a native Token, XPX, that allows the economic sustainability of its services (possible thanks to NEM).

So, in short, the main advantage for all users, be they companies, entrepreneurs or any other interested party, is that they can avoid costly centralized structures, with known vulnerabilities and enjoy sustainable and secure service offerings such as: "Content delivery and storage, Streaming Media, decentralized markets, big-data, measurement/analytics, IO, and record keeping.

ProximaX in Play to Earn games

Online games, with the plus of earning money, is something that is very attractive. Being able to connect players in the Blockchain, generate tokens and also enjoy the ability to store information and manage resources securely, are some of the benefits that can be enjoyed in this field of virtual games.

I was reading an article about X-Game, "an innovative game based on blockchain that implements a unique P2E concept, Play-to-Earn" which "rewards users for their time and effort". "ProximaX will be used in X-Game to host all users' ePassports. Cryptaur, "a decentralized ecosystem for P2P services", also participates here. So in short "ProximaX will be used in X-Game to host the ePassports of all users, as well as to store the data of the game characters and their elements. NEM, on the other hand, is used as a decentralized registry for Cryptaur users."

I think it's important to quote that in this context, "Dimitri Buriak, CEO of Cryptaur, said:

"ProximaX will be an important element to ensure user confidence in the Cryptaur platform. In the near future, we plan to implement the storage of personal documents of our participants based on ProximaX, reliably protecting them with modern encryption algorithms.

Application Development

The main strength of ProximaX is to offer the strength, versatility, security and profitability for the development of Dapps.

And continuing with the investigation about the novelties in which ProximaX starts, in this article I found that an agreement was signed between ProximaX and Collabora Productivity Ltd., in which is offered: "the word processing, the spreadsheets and the presentations of the 100% open source Office suite of Collabora Online in Suite.ProximaX.io". A collaboration that undoubtedly contributes a lot to the versatility of ProximaX applications. Collabora Productivity currently operates by placing "LibreOffice in the cloud and provides products and consulting for businesses and governments.

Also Morpheus Labs, a block chain company with strength in "rapid prototyping, easy implementation and integration", has partnered with ProximaX to "drive the adoption, implementation and use of block chain technology through the ProximaX Sirius development platform," which being easy to develop and integrated, allows them to operate more easily.
Its main attraction is the speed offered to developers, which allows them "an estimated saving of up to 60% in development time and 70% in development costs".
"Our shared mission is to promulgate the block chain as a secure, practical and cost-effective platform for applications, and it is this ideology that has brought us together. It is part of our strategy to work closely with partners and potential customers across platforms, genres and markets to defend block chain technology and also to promote the ProximaX Supercontract as a superior alternative to the intelligent contract."
- Lon Wong, founder and CEO of ProximaX

Streaming Service

Streaming is nothing more than the technology that allows us to watch an audio or video from the Internet without having to download it completely to our device to play it. This allows us to enjoy live online transmissions, without leaving the information stored in the computer from which the video is viewed. Through streaming we enjoy applications such as Youtube, Netflix, iTunes among many others. So now, we can have their analogs with all the advantages offered by the Blockchain.

Now, having the availability of using this technology in the Blockchain, in a format fully compatible with so many other Dapps, makes it much more attractive to bet on ProximaX. The range of options is very wide, you can enjoy many services that normally you must develop separately, meaning a great effort, high cost and less functionality.

Honestly, I was impressed with the enormous potential that ProximaX has, with all its strategic alliances that strengthen and diversify it. It has many more potentialities than I can describe, as soon as I show a summary of what I could understand.

As I see it, ProximaX is offering to enjoy the functionalities of the Internet, but enjoying the benefits of Blockchain, such as security, confidentiality, decentralization... and at a lower cost!
