The
Trustlines Protocol
An open-source technology stack to encourage open collaboration, innovation, and transparency.
Protocol
Open-source set of rules, processes, and definitions forged into deployable code mapping trust-based relationships onto trustless infrastructure.
Smart Contract System
The smart contract system is a collection of smart contracts deployed on the Trustlines Blockchain. The contracts execute transfers within the Trustlines Protocol.
Relay Servers
The relay servers act as a bridge between applications and the Trustlines Blockchain. They offer services that aren't feasible to implement on-chain or within the applications or the devices they run on.
Client Library
The client library is a Javascript library that makes it easy to build applications on top of the Trustlines Protocol. It provides a high-level API enabling applications to interact with the smart contract system on the blockchain via the relay servers.
Blockchain
The Trustlines Blockchain is a Proof-of-Stake sidechain to Ethereum.
It enables us to work with the latest technology in privacy and other things.
validators are
pseudo-
anonymous
Validators
The validators ensure the security of the Trustlines Blockchain by validating transactions and adding blocks to the blockchain.
- Candidates can gain a slot by participating in a validator auction. The staked amount will be locked for the duration of the validator period.
- Validators earn rewards from transaction fees and block rewards in the process.
