Pantos

Pantos aims to bring influential blockchain projects closer together, improve communication between developers, researchers and users, and set innovative standards for decentralised cross-chain token transfers.

Pantos is an open-source, open-innovation driven scientific research project. It will be developed in collaboration with researchers at the Technical University of Vienna, the Research Institute for Future Cryptoeconomics (RIAT) and the Austrian Academy of Sciences. Together we will bring Token Atomic Swap Technology (TAST) to life, which will prospectively act as a key technology in a tokenized world.

We want Pantos to serve as a lighthouse project, combining the security of major cryptocurrency protocols with state-of-the-art development in the blockchain technology, and fostering a cooperation between various projects in the blockchain community. Only together we can determine best practice and set new standards for cross-chain token transfers.

Instead of submerging after the completed ICO for a few years to do “research in stealth mode”, we want to rapidly and publicly assemble working solutions whilst using readily available, state-of-the-art technologies. By harnessing Atomic Swap, Lightning Network and Smart Contract technologies, we will gradually but effectively accomplish the complete decentralisation of PAN.

Pantos will act as a common denominator, providing flexibility, stability and liquidity. It will enable near-instant arbitrage, increasing the volume on all decentralised markets and prospectively drive the demand for PAN tokens. Through Pantos, traders will be able to identify and exploit emerging price differences between arbitrary digital currency pairs.
