Fulcrum Chain
Greetings to you, dear readers of my blog! In this review I present to you an ICO-project of fulcrum.
I will tell about everything in detail in this article.
Fulcrum chain is a multi-tier blockchain system, purpose-built to deliver on all the enterprise requirements: scalability, ease of integration, interoperability and security. Our turnkey business-ready platform addresses the full lifecycle (develop, govern, and operate) of a multi-organization blockchain network, providing interoperable access to other blockchain protocols like decentralized storage (Sia Filecoin),computing platforms (Golem Rendertoken), oracle networks or secure identity ecosystems [Civic,Sovrin etc]
We believe we’re just on the edge of blockchain’s potential. We don’t plan just to solve some technical problem (in our case blockchain interoperability & simplifying blockchain integration) but to be a long-term partner in supporting the growth of the entire ecosystem. This is why we will start our collaborative effort of improving blockchain, by skipping an ICO and airdropping the whole token distribution.

About Fulcrum Chain ?
Fulcrum Blockchain Platform is an integrated business-ready platform that addresses the full lifecycle (develop, govern, and operate) of a multi-organization blockchain network. We are providing a business ready infrastructure that allows companies to rapidly build blockchain prototypes all they way to production environments.
To scale to the full requirements of enterprise applications, our modular architecture combines multiple blockchains solutions providing access to other blockchain protocols, like decentralized storage, (Storj, Sia, Filecoin) oracle network (ChainLink) access to computing networks(Golem, Rendertoken) to secure identity ecosystems [Civic, Sovrin etc] and distributed exchange protocols.
Exploiting blockchain technologies to the fullest extent will require enterprises to creatively deconstruct current businesses models. While blockchain technology offers unique benefits, without a platform like Fulcrum chain that is purpose built and complex enough to handle enterprise demands in areas such as scalability, security & interoperability the transitioning effort can prove hard.

Blockchain Interoperability
Conservative enterprise decision-makers don’t want to risk selecting a single chain just yet; why choose one chain that might limit future options? The enterprise market wants the flexibility offered by Fulcrumchainis which is providing a truly cross-chain environment by creating a way to transfer value between assets, whether centralised (stocks, bonds, other traditional financial assets) or decentralised (blockchain tokens and cryptocurrencies).

Serverless Architecture for Unlimited Scalability
Scalability is particularly crucial in the context of enterprise systems handling large volumes of mission critical data. Fulcrum’s TPS is theoretically unbounded by leveraging a serverless architecture to enable simple and powerful scaling via Amazon AWS or Google App Engine to run business logic.

Enterprise Level Security
One of the major barriers to enterprise adoption of the blockchain is the risk associated with data exposure and security. Fulcrum’s platform allows a project to control exposure of sensitive business data and smart contract logic. Network consensus is achieved through 5 step context based verification on different blockchains, where private data in the transaction is kept private, while in the end the transaction can be recorded on public ledger.

Fast Deployment
Existing systems don’t have to change their programming language, business rules, or engineering best practices to reap the benefits of Fulcrum. As a protocol layer, the blockchain agnostic character of Fulcrum opens up the opportunity for any blockchain in the space to integrate, increasing the reach of the ecosystem and value of the network in return.

Modular Infrastructure
The modularity of Fulcrum architecture enables network designers to choose specific implementations to meet desired use-case requirements across different industries. We build on top of key open-source architectures leveraging Corda, Hyperledger and Dragonchain’s capabilities to provide the necessary infrastructure for developing, operating and governing enterprise solutions.

Ease of Integration
We aim to give businesses a “turn-key” product that is compatible with their development stack (Python, Java, Node, Go or C+) and a platform designed as a multi-tier blockchain solution in a new era of inter-linked blockchain databases that adapts & scale to their business requirements.

Why Fulcrum ?
We view Fulcrum as the ideal platform for integrating the benefits of blockchain with existing enterprise software solutions because it has been consciously designed to feature all the critical range of capabilities a company would need.

Accelerate Growth
Increase business velocity with a trusted network for B2B transactions & real-time data sharing.

Faster Automation
Automatically trigger actions, events, and even payments based on preset conditions, speeding up business processes.

Simplify Development
Cut development time and experiment easily with modular, preconfigured networks and infrastructure.

Increased efficiency and speed
Enable new business models and revenue streams by leveraging blockchain cappabilities to to reach new markets.

Innovate with Confidence
Keep your data secure and scale when you need to, on a trusted, globally available serverless architecture.

Increased Visibility
Gain real-time visibility into distributed transactions across your authorized business network with a shared immutable ledger.

Token distribution
We believe a free distribution model to be the most transparent way to distribute FLC, providing commitment from the team and community that the value of FLC will not be artificially set via an internally agreed upon ICO price; but instead the value in which we bring through product development to the evolving ecosystem in which we believe in.

Network Governance
We imagine FLC token holders to be involved in quarterly suggestion sessions where they can suggest proposals regarding the future development of the Fulcrum chain as well as suggest new chains to be made compatible within the Fulcrum ecosystem. As we believe smart contracts offer a safe and fair solution to all parties during the suggesting process, we plan to develop smart contracts to which FLC token holders could send their coins to vote on proposals.

Staking
Our Fulcrum Wallet offers all users the ability to earn up to 10% annual interest on their coins/tokens by staking them. Here’s how it works: in order to enter the stake period, you need to first store your tokens for 30 consecutive days. During this waiting period, you can still receive coins, but should not send them. After 30 days you can claim your interest.

Masternodes
Fulcrum aims to deliver and deploy plug and play blockchains that are customizable to the client’s preferences. This creates an important part of our token economy as it enables our community to provide services to the network in form of masternodes. A Masternode is a type of full node that offers various services to the network and is compensated by the network for this service.

Our services follow the full lifecycle of blockchain
solution development, from research, to proof of
concept, building, and scaling.

#Roadmap

Instead of submerging after the completed
ICO for a few years to do “research in stealth
mode”, we aim to rapidly assemble working
solutions using currently available technology.
