HGTP is a distributed ledger technology known as a directed acyclic graph (DAG) protocol with a novel reputation-based consensus model called Proof of Reputable Observation (PRO). Hypergraph is a feeless decentralized network that supports the transfer of $DAG cryptocurrency.
The Hypergraph network is made up of a collection of microservices called metagraphs. Each metagraph validates specific data types with user-defined validation functions. Metagraphs form a distributed network architecture that can accommodate real world big data use cases. Developers can integrate metagraphs directly into existing applications, allowing for direct E2E security and minimal seamless deployment.
The Constellation HGTP Network is powered by a secure communication protocol designed for wide open networks and concurrency. Our vision was not achievable with traditional consensus models. Therefore, we built PRO from the ground up, incorporating machine learning to balance our complex network topology with a performance based approach to validator rewards.
Our protocol relies on a P2P reputation system called Proof of Reputable Observation (PRO) that serves as our consensus model while simultaneously optimizing network topology.
A directed acyclic graph (DAG) that performs consensus concurrently and maintains topological ordering – designed for high throughput data pipelines.
Distributed node operators that host nodes for validation. The nodes are rewarded to maintain and govern the network.
Integrating into existing systems is a key capability within the Constellation solution. Our micro-service framework enables effortless plug-and-play functionality with existing applications written with JVM languages such as Java and Scala
Proof of Reputable Observation (PRO) is an evolution of distributed consensus, incorporating P2P reputation models
With the introduction of the Constellation L_0 Standard – a metagraph/microservices framework, anyone will be able to validate data schemas and data sources, mint their own cryptocurrency, and attach business logic and metrics to their L_0. To create an L_0 application, $DAG will be required and may be procured in the ecosystem.
In today’s cryptocurrency markets, there are too many random tokens that are created for public relations stunts. The Metagraph Token Standard allows purchasers and holders of an metagraph token to see the business mechanics. Token types can be designed by the creator of the metagraph token to attract purchasers and holders including “shared rewards” that relate to the success and utility of the token. We provide predefined token types for the metagraph token creator.
