CyberWay

CyberWay

CyberWay is a decentralized application platform and an upgraded fork of EOS, designed to support complex applications with enhanced scalability, performance, and decentralization. It introduces features like a dual bandwidth system, DBMS-based state storage, a domain name system, and a Tezos/Cosmos-inspired consensus algorithm to create a more robust and developer-friendly environment for social, financial, and gaming dApps.

Description

CyberWay is a decentralized application platform designed as an upgraded fork of EOS, aiming to overcome the limitations of its predecessors like Bitcoin and Ethereum. It addresses scalability issues by introducing a unique bandwidth model that includes both priority-based and shared bandwidth, allowing for free user onboarding for new applications. CyberWay enhances state storage by using external DBMS like MongoDB for reliability and offers an embedded RocksDB option for faster performance. It features an event engine to manage data in external storages, a domain name system for user-friendly account identification, and an increased block generation time for better stability in a distributed environment. The platform plans to increase the number of validators to 101 for greater decentralization and employs a consensus algorithm inspired by Tezos and Cosmos, which rewards active voters and penalizes inactive ones. CyberWay removes privileged accounts and censorship mechanisms found in EOS and introduces a 'Workers' mechanism for protocol improvements, making it suitable for complex social, financial, and gaming applications.
