Locus Chain

Completely Decentralized high performance public blockchain protocol with Scalability that supports global retail mass adoption.

Locus Chain is a public blockchain that is ideal for any industries, including AI, Smart City and Gaming projects, that require large-scale data processing.

Locus Chain is a distributed blockchain system with the goal of processing at least 4K transactions per second on a decentralized network. The Locus Chain network will consist of various devices, including generic home PCs, data center servers, mobile phones, or low-power IoT devices, all in different ranges of CPU performance, storage capacity, and network speed. The Locus Chain also has a goal of transaction processing time, reaching an immediate consensus within a few seconds, and reaching a deterministic permanent consensus within a few minutes.

For example, Locus Chain enables parallel transaction processing by incorporating a nonlinear DAG structure called AWTC (Account-Wise Transaction Chain) instead of a linear "chain" structure.

Also, Locus Chain implemented a PoS-based BFT consensus algorithm to resolve the shortcomings of PoW and Nakamoto Consensus regarding performance and determinability while keeping fairness between participating nodes. Furthermore, Locus Chain implements the Dynamic Sharding data-distribution policy to decrease network loads while keeping the ledger's integrity.

Locus Chain's Verifiable Pruning technology dramatically reduces the storage space requirement of nodes, and small-footprint computers like IoT devices and mobile phones are eligible to be a part of the Locus Chain network.

Furthermore, Locus Chain is aware of the risk of the emerging Quantum computing technology to blockchain systems. Locus Chain implements a post-quantum resistant cryptography system
by separately managing the master key and the regular key.
