Sparkster: Solving Blockchain's Scalability and Adoption Challenges

in #blockchain7 years ago (edited)


We live in a constantly evolving world of technological innovations; probably because we are curious creatures always seeking out new discoveries and a sense of responsibility to make our world a better place. This is more so, when it comes to technology. Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, genetics to mention a few are technological inventions that has practically changed the world. The blockchain technology took the world by storm, a disruptive technology for one of mankind’s most vital aspect of life- finance and trust. Blockchain is a chain of digital blocks that are connected to form a distributed ledger where transactions can be recorded in an immutable way and can be easily verified. Each transaction is digitally signed to ensure its authenticity and that no one tampers with it. The blockchain technology brings to light the many irregularities that plague the traditional way of storing value. It goes on to show new ways of openly storing and transferring data and digital assets from one entity to another without fear of the data being tampered with. Blockchain supports the cryptocurrency world and many other promising applications. This technology brings to the world, new and powerful ways of forming digital relationships. As of today, there are at least 50 blockchain networks used by thousands of platforms and firms from different aspects of life for their businesses.

As with every technology in its infancy that has its challenges, blockchain is plagued with problems of its own-mass adoption and scalability. A lot of people do not understand the technology and thus are skeptical of its usage; a lot (99%) of us are not cryptographically inclined and may not be able to harness the technology to its full potentials. Many decentralized platforms are incapable of interfacing with already existing software making it difficult for Entrepreneurs to adopt the technology. A more pressing problem is that of scalability, as there is yet to be a decentralized platform that can support a 100,000tps for a million users and still has an easy to use interface- a feat a platform like Facebook is able to achieve with ease.
Sparkster was built with the problems of the blockchain network in mind. It is a platform that allows you to build decentralized software in plain English with an amazing projected speed of up to 10million transactions per second (TPS). The Sparkster platform presents you the fastest, easiest and most personalized ways of building software. You don’t have to be tech savvy or have an idea of cryptography to be able to use the platform and build your own software. Every software building is in plain English as demonstrated in the walkthroughs on Sparkster’s official page. An interesting focus of the Sparkster platform is that of cryptocurrency smart contracts. Smart contracts are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement between buyer and seller being directly written into lines of code. To build smart contracts, one has to be able to write codes. This has greatly hindered the adoption of this great technology, as a lot of people in different professions do not know how to write codes and thus can’t harvest the advantages of the technology into their businesses. In Sparkster’s Walkthrough 6, there is a demonstration of how to build smart contracts from start to finish all in plain English without writing a single code. The impact of this breakthrough would be astonishing as everyone-lawyers bankers, architects etc. can build a decentralized software for their profession without learning how to code.

Due to varieties that would arise with building smart contracts for different fields of life, there would be a predefined method of information input on the Sparkster platform. The platform users would focus strictly on defining the actual business logic the contract is expected to execute; while the Sparkster platform would focus on handling the translation into a functioning smart contract. As such, the Sparkster team has integrated the ability to generate Ethereum Smart Contracts and IOTA Flash Channel Transactions through their platform. Once the business logic is defined, the platform generates the appropriate code for such a smart contract to be executed on the respective network.
There are other features of Sparkster to look into; the Sparkster decentralized cloud and the Sparkster’s marketplace. The Sparkster’s decentralized cloud allows peer to peer web hosting and data storage services where companies are charged on a pay per transaction basis. The decentralized cloud enables people to execute their software across a network of phones and gadgets in a cheaper and more secure environment. With the decentralized cloud feature, Sparkster tackles the problem of storing decentralized software/data on a centralized platform, thereby promoting decentralization.
The Sparkster Marketplace is a place where people buy and sell ideas, software websites etc. The marketplace would allow authors to publish their high level compositions for others to use and enable contributors to earn from their efforts by selling their creation. It is also in the market place that bids and offers for decentralized cloud storage take place. All transactions are carried out in the marketplace using the spark tokens.
Sparkster platform has put in place every component required to achieve mainstream adoption of blockchain. Not only is the platform easy to use, it is also cheap and flexible. It is a platform designed for people from every walk of life. The platforms architecture and design was made with security in mind. The latest security software has been put in place to ensure secure and hacker proof transactions on the platform. With a team of professionals filled with zeal and passion for making life easier, one is left with little doubt of the capabilities and future of the platform. A partnership with two of the biggest industrial names in the world (ARM and Libelium) has somehow confirmed what is already known; the Sparkster platform is going to be hugely successful and highly impactful.
