Decentralized sharing economy protocol using the Ethereum blockchain
- Open source and community managed
- No data reselling
- No deplatforming
- No exploitation of monopoly position
Sharing economy platforms are
broken
The sharing economy is booming.
But power is skewed towards the platforms such as Uber, AirBnB and Upwork. It's hard for competitors to attract buyers and sellers. Leading sharing economy marketplaces become monopolies, an advantage they exploit to extract a large portion of value.
Why build on TimeCoinProtocol
TimeCoinProtocol provides a platform on which to build a fairer sharing economy.
- Easier development with TimeCoinProtocol ADK
- Decreased user acquisition costs due to mobility of users between dApps
- Be part of a fairer sharing economy
TimeCoinProtocol architecture
-
Decentralized Applications
- Decentralized applications (dApps) through which the sharing economy is realized via the peer-to-peer trading of products and services.
-
Application Common Libraries
- The TCP Application Common Libraries are a JavaScript-based catalog of developer tools which are openly accessible to all TCP developers.
-
Open Source Search Server
- The Open Source Search Server provides a search function will allow users to search for products and services in TCP dApps.
-
TimeCoinProtocol
- The protocol offers a number of functions including account management, dApp browsing, product or service transactions, settlement, scoring, and token reward allocation. The protocol acts as an intermediary system which facilitates interactions between dApps, IPFS and the Ethereum blockchain as well as external arbitrators and oracles where necessary.
-
InterPlanetary File System (IPFS)
- A distributed storage facility called the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) which holds the product and service information for dApps.
-
Ethereum Blockchain
- The Ethereum blockchain upon which TCP runs.
What is TimeCoin?
TimeCoin token
use case
The TimeCoin token (Symbol: TMCN) is an Ethereum-based, native token created to support the functions of the TimeCoin Protocol.
The TimeCoin token will function as the mean of payment for goods and services to users throught the dApps built upon TimeCoinProtocol; the mean of payment for transaction fees; and the allocation of rewards for platform supporters.
Reward
mechanism
A portion of TimeCoin tokens earned and transaction fees are redistributed to users of the platform.
Rewards are proportionate to contributes regardless of contribution type. i.e. loyalty, numbers of transactions, size of transactions, growing the network, supporting the operation of the network.
